WELCOME TO THE HIVE
It's a long journey to Kulen and you’re paralyzed for all of it. The parasites aren't very delicate about carrying you there and you may get prodded with the odd pincer, but they diligently protect you from any external threats so you arrive relatively unharmed.
They carry you into a series of tunnels and into the belly of the hive where they lay you down on the ground. You lie there, unable to move or speak as more of the parasites converge on you, chittering excitedly and smelling you with their antennae. As the paralysis starts to wear off, they roughly and enthusiastically help you up and guide you through the tunnels, excitedly showing you around.
Eventually, you'll meet a parasite with human features who will give you a stilted, but genuine welcome. Apparently you are a special guest who has been brought here to help celebrate their beloved queen's first ever ascension day! While you're here, they want to learn as much about YOU and your traditions as they can so they can make this the greatest party ever.
The parasites implore you to eat their human cooking which is mostly composed of various things (both edible and not) that they've deep fried. They worked very hard and they will be very offended if you don't finish it. They also invite you to contribute to their cave paintings which are entirely composed of parasites doing parasite things.
During your stay, you'll likely run into other monsters who've been replaced by doppelgangers. Maybe some of them have been here for a while. Maybe others have just turned up.
Your quarters are dark and maybe a little cramped given that you're sharing them with a whole bunch of insectoid creatures and maybe one or two monsters. Other than that, they're relatively comfortable.
Settle in and make yourself at home. You'll be here for a while.

That it seems, is rather easy for the bugs to grasp! Wow!

"Let's go with that!" It'll do for now. "If I can ask a question then, have any of you bugs... or you, miss... seen a boy named charles? Yeay- high, looks kinda like a dog with spots?" One hand raises, holding out level to indicate their height.
Please be here.
no subject
Reira raises her eyebrows, and the bugs chitter various answers of No.
"...Why would they know about someone named 'Charles'..."
no subject
"I lived with him, he disappeared a day before I was brought here... so I thought, you know... He'd probably be around?" After all, if not here, then where?
no subject
She did promise the bugs that she wouldn't tell them about where they were, or spoil the surprise.
She supposes that trying to contact someone who's missing wouldn't be breaking that rule.
no subject
"Yeah- They usually went by.. uh. C, or UmbrellaMan" Or some other host of names, Charles was a difficult one to pin down sometimes. Still, there's some hope left.
no subject
"Umn.... ...do you have his number..?" Please Fran. She needs the number.
no subject
((His inbox page was never actually made, so I have no idea what the number is OOC))
no subject
Mnh.
It doesn't exist.
[...As far as Fran will have seen, Reira just closed her eyes and stood there for a second.]
no subject
Fran believes her though, and that's even more worrying. They only just stop themselves from chewing on their bottom lip]
W- what does that even mean? I was talking to him just the other day! But I don't have my device with me to show you...
no subject
...I think it means...he's not in Ryslig anymore.
...I'm sorry, [She adds belatedly, looking somewhat uncomfortable.]
no subject
I-... [That's an emotion they haven't felt strongly for a while. Sadness? Loss? Fear?] I need to go.
[They stammer out, a slight crack in their voice as they turn about, not even waiting for a response as they start walking towards the nearest exit.]
((Can be a wrap up point, or could follow along if ya want~))
