[text] @keeper; cw: character death [open]
Heyyy everybody. I'm the LH Keeper. I know you guys probably got some questions for me but like sit tight first OK? I promise I'll answer eeeeverything you wanna know in just a sec. There's a couple things I wanna say.
The first one being, hi! I'm Robin. It's SO good to finally get to chat with you all, like jeez I've been hella bored over here. That party you guys just put on looked really fun. :( I'm sad I missed it! But that's kinda how it goes when you're the Keeper. Rastus said there's been a lot of talk about like fulfilling our roles and stuff, and this is mine! I'm in the lighthouse because it let's me do a bunch of stuff to manage the town and help keep the world safe, but it means I'm stuck out here all by myself and I don't get to do the fun stuff I want to do sometimes. Which is why I'm so so SO happy that you guys and gals got me hooked up to the network again! Thank you so much!!! ❤❤❤
Oh right, and you guys have had a lot of questions about what I'm protecting the town from, haven't you? Me and Will talked and he's super sure it's best if HE gives you the skinny on all that since he said he would and he wants to make good on his promise, you feel? So he's gonna do that after the ferry gets here so all the new people can get the info too. Sound good? Sorry you gotta wait just a liiiittle bit longer but there's something else I think we should talk about first...
The forest spirits are still reporting the numbers so I don't know exactly how many we're up to yet but... A lot of people went missing and probably died from how things went down after the party. I'll put all the names in the next bulletin (sorry I didn't do one this week btw! things have been kinda crazy...) but if you want to ask about your friends and stuff in the meantime, I'll do my best to tell you what I know. Maybe some of them will come back? We just have to wait and see.
But... you guys probably saw this in that post Rosinante and Riku and Peter did, but just in case you didn't: Captain Winters died, and so did Five. I didn't see what happened exactly but I saw the spirits starting to come for them all and I tried to stop them but they didn't listen. They get really angry about people coming to the lighthouse or me trying to leave, even the ones that are usually really nice.
I hope they'll both come back but I don't know if they will, so, just in case... Winters would want you all to take care of the town for him and move on you know? He won't be around when the ferry comes so make sure you all fill the new people in on what's happened and how to survive here. All that really important stuff he's been telling people is up to you guys to spread around now.
*BIG SIGH* OK WELL I don't want to end on that super negative note but now I'm all sad sooo ask me questions and stuff, and Will will tell everyone about what I'm keeping the town safe from real soon. It really is nice to meet you all!!

You know that's the opposite of being helpful
I get it
It sucks watching people struggle and not being able to anything about it
But sometimes you have to
More people and spirits probably got hurt because of it
no subject
Bruh you can't play the sympathy card right after implying this was intentional! I really thought I could get them to leave. Trust me, I know plenty about having to make a tough call. Maybe my trying was a mistake, but it wasn't something I did without weighing the risks.
no subject
You've been here a while, right?
Are you seriously saying this is the first time they've ever reacted like that to whatever you did?
Why don't they want us getting near you, anyway?
There has to be a reason they're trying to keep us separated
no subject
And sometimes the forest spirits catch the group coming to reconnect me, and I do nothing, and then the spirits slaughter every last person in town and force a reset! So, like, this is not the worst thing that could've happened!
Oh, there's like a thousand reasons. You're far from the first person to get all suspicious of me! People have tried to kill me in the past, either to like take over or to try some kind of anarchy or whatever. Orrr, the forest spirits know I'm not exactly thrilled to be cooped up by myself, so they think intruders are trying to spring me.
They're like an overprotective dad, is what I'm saying. I'm here to do a job, and they want me to stay like really focused on it.
no subject
Us or you
Because I'm guessing there's a reason you got disconnected
And why you're meant to be by yourself
no subject
I've been here too long to keep arguing with people who are just gonna distrust me regardless! Is there anything I can actually do to make you believe me? Like, for real, honest question! It sounds like I already burned that bridge, sooo why should I waste time filling you in if you're not gonna believe a word I say?
