event: portal seven | the void

[mayfield_mods]

The final portal doesn't seem to be a portal at all. It's a glitch hole.

Located on the lawn of the library is a hole much like the ones that have plagued every new location for the past week. As with them, it hurts your eyes to look at too long, but even if you should muscle past the pain and stare straight into it, you can make out nothing on the other side. Nothing, save for a shifting, twitching, swirling void.

Unlike the portals, which were vertically placed like doorways, the hole at the Library is strewn across the lawn: if you want to enter it, you're going to have to jump. Of course, there's no guarantee it will even lead anywhere. Touching the hole or sticking your arm in doesn't have any effect: you'll pull your arm out unharmed. As far as jumping in completely goes, those who jump in disappear from sight. As long as you're on the Mayfield side, there's no way to tell what lies beyond the hole.

There's only one way to find out.

[ooc: Feel free to roleplay up to the point your characters jump in, assuming they do. A single group subthread will be created in a few hours revealing what happens on the other side.]

[Tachikoma rolls up to the hole in the ground to get a better look at it. Since its 'eyes' are a type of digital cameras, they can't be strained normally. That still doesn't mean it can see what's down there.]

Huh, I wonder how we're suppose to find anything in there...

Well, I guess I could always take a closer look!

[It backs up slightly, the gray half spheres on the rear pod swiveling suddenly and making a small sound before it suddenly takes off and jumps into the hole.]

WHEEEEEEEEEEE!

[ What had interested Butch, hadn't been the hole, actually. It's actually Tachikoma that he spotted, while it rolled up to the hole. Peering at it with interest, he startles when it speeds into the hole and vanish. ]

Wow!

[ What the--! ]

Awesome!

[ And the cowboy grins widelyand, dead set on finding out exactly what kind of weird spieces of dog that thing is, follows into the hole whith a cheerful, excited whoop! ]

Yeehaw!
