Til Death: Reanimated - calliopes-temple

The entrance FLINT is in leads downwards. The top entrance leads inwards.

Your body clattered to the floor at the bottom of the stairwell.

1

6:27 PM

Your blood pooled, filling ornamental cracks on the ground around you.

You were sorta in a pile, bleeding a lot and with your hair covering your eyes.

6:34 PM

You looked dead, but you're not. You know you aren't.

you slam into the ground, and sit up

6:35 PM

jesus flint. You ok

Your blood continued seeping into cracks on the ground, as if it was expected blood was going to pool here.

6:35 PM

You wheeze in response.

6:35 PM

my face hurts.

6:35 PM

>

6:36 PM

Your arm slowly began healing back. It's kind of gross to watch.

6:36 PM

Like a corpse rotting in reverse.

fuck dude..

6:37 PM

you sit him up

You spat a couple teeth out. You also spat your retainer out.

6:37 PM

Said teeth heal perfectly into place.

6:37 PM

You now have PERFECT TEETH.

6:37 PM

Except the obvious overbite, but you at least look good now.

6:37 PM

uh

// RETAINER!?!?

.. where am i

(YEAH HE HAD A RETAINER

in a temple dawg, that big ass one we couldnt open.

oh shit i got it open

6:38 PM

woah are there torches n shit

i dont know its dark as shit.

>

6:39 PM

You brace yourself with your one present arm and stand up.

6:39 PM

search the walls.

6:39 PM

theres gotta be something. its an ancient temple.

6:39 PM

You felt around the wall. You feel some engravings.

6:39 PM

You can't feel out what they are.

6:40 PM

hey isaac i think

6:40 PM

i found something.

6:40 PM

You grab it, and pull it.

6:40 PM

FWOOSH.

6:40 PM

The "lever" you pulled was actually a torch attached to a lever. All of the torches in the room come to life

6:40 PM

DUUUUUDE

6:42 PM

The inside of the temple is green and red like the outside.

dang, cool.

There's a large block of text on the ground.

you read the text

you've made it past my threshold, and i welcome you in
the lord is my one true guest, but i assume hes brought friends.
the paths in front of you fork into 3
the one ahead is for the lord's eyes only.

Jared falls down the stairs in an oddly graceful manner. He sticks the landing.

Jared lands in a pool of blood.

6:45 PM

I almost said a pool of an unidentified liquid but there's light now.

HeehaaUghahGgah

oh hey guys

6:46 PM

jared did you fall too

Jared jumps, shaking off his shoes.

6:46 PM

With style, baby.

6:46 PM

You flick your hair back.

Your left arm is completely clean, compared tot he rest of your body.

6:46 PM

It just grew back.

(hes like that shot of vriska rn)

>

6:48 PM

so should we split up scooby doo style

6:48 PM

or should we all go down one at once

6:48 PM

im so fucking stoked because im so sure there's loot down here

I think it's best if we stick together man

Slav walks down the stairs casually.

6:49 PM

so uh

I don't want you shitting yourself when you hear a spooky noise and you're all alone...

snrk is that everyone for sticking together on the exploration- hi slav

6:49 PM

isaac what do you think

...there are three paths, right

theres three paths and four of us

im taking the far left path.. alone

6:50 PM

you point to it, it seems to be coated in ice

6:50 PM

seems important to me anyhow.

okay these are definitely themed

good luck then.

6:51 PM

You hold your hand out for THAT ONE HANDSHAKE You know the one.

The two remaining paths are... Well, one's overgrown with plants, but the wornness of the temple shows that there's gears behind the walls. The other is painted entirely purple, but the items in it seem to be completely random.

Jared takes a closer look at the purple path.

this is some temple huh guys

6:52 PM

im seriously fucking stoked this is the coolest shit ever

you just got the shit beaten out of you

i did

and you're... stoked...?

You sorta blacked out while you were having your face beaten in by Thea. You remember kicking the shit out of Esther and slicing into Thea.

6:54 PM

i thought i defeated thea thats all i remember

What are the items on the purple path?

That's for you to find out.

// so confused what does that mean

6:55 PM

//

(the items inside are for you to discover

6:55 PM

(stoopid

// POOP

6:55 PM

// HEAR

oh my god dude you got fucking torn apart

C'mon man let Flint have a little fun

6:56 PM

He deserves it after having to go through that shit

it was like fucking unit one vs unit three out there

What

There's one final corridor. It's placement looks like it's not supposed to be there.

6:57 PM

It's one of the two in the middle.

6:57 PM

The walls are etched like the outside of a pharaoh's tomb.

isaac has walked off to his path

Red and green are the dominant colors.

yknow shinji and the 13th angel

// https://youtu.be/YgiESzLrCHc

Lana de Lain

neon genesis evangelion: shinji and the 13th angel

yeah sorta

6:58 PM

i watched a bit of evangelion.

Alright alright whatever happens I am NOT walking down one of those paths alone

what if we go down each one together and then come back

you guys can follow me first if you want

7:00 PM

i think the egyptian tomb one is for me, plus its the first one after isaac

7:00 PM

or isaac's

7:00 PM

the vines remind me of you slav

what ew no

that leaves the purple one probably being jared's

7:01 PM

let's go this is gonna be so fucking cool

why would i be VINES

I dunno man, that doesn't have any of my patented Jared vibes™ (edited)

no hold on

7:01 PM

we're not splitting up

yeah i meant for you guys to follow me

i'm sure you'll have to go down yours alone

7:01 PM

mr bigshot lord and all that

7:01 PM

so let's go purple, plants, then yours

Alright we all holding hands or what

UGHHH fine let's go down- the purple one-

7:02 PM

it looks really buggy and i know that this is real life

7:02 PM

like it looks like its not rendering past a certain point

Rhys ｡.ﾟ+ started a thread. 12/7/2022 7:02 PM

i'm not holding your fucking hand

guys check this out

REAL. GENUINE. TEARS

You walk into the purple one and you just Disappear.

Wh-

7:03 PM

????

Like, your "model" stopped rendering when you walked in.

FLINT??

7:03 PM

oh god he's turned into a ps1 character

THE HELL???

You walk back out. You reappear.

7:03 PM

LOOK

7:03 PM

DUDE WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS TUNNEL

You run over to look inside.

// theyre getting spark of rage'd..

((the tunnel WAS Katie's but adjusted to theme itsself after Jared. you may design the rest of the tunnel

7:05 PM

((thinking a lot of the photos of katie in there will be drawn over and jpegged

// ohhhhh

7:06 PM

// how come it's not Katie's anymore? Any reason?

7:06 PM

// also is the thing with Katie still gonna happen

7:06 PM

// the cool thing

DreamilyDrifting

// how come it's not Katie's anymore? Any reason?

// shes not in the temple

// true

7:13 PM

The purple path seems to be working correctly now. The walls and floors are ordained with a number of stretched and warped images of seemingly random things. A strange static-y fuzz can be felt in the air. The images adorning the walls and floor are superimposed over a grand purple carpet, with an intricately designed pink tiled flooring.

7:15 PM

Hanging on the walls are Marquee posters of a young woman, scribbled and drawn over with what looks like computer generated pixels.

7:16 PM

Sets of enlarged blades float crossed over each other in front of the path, blocking the way.

7:16 PM

// @ectoMycologist @demeter!!

...Uh,

jeezus

Slav reaches out and grabs the handle of one of the blades.

It shakes him off.

7:18 PM

The pairs of blades reluctantly open, uncrossing and standing idle by the walls.

hm.

7:18 PM

Slav walks past carefully.

Many loud background noises can be heard. People talking, the shutter of cameras, the sharpening of blades, and... An assortment of loud, distorted garbage noise.

Jared follows Slav. This is a bit creepy.

this reminds me more of katie than you but then again its jpegged over

7:21 PM

it looks like a presentation on katie made by you

Yeeaaah I don't know how I feel about this...

christ this feels like we're in her mind

A faint arguing can be heard as well. Well, one voice is arguing. A noticable silence is heard alongside the fussing.

Slav stops and examines some of the images on the wall.

Flint Turing

it looks like a presentation on katie made by you

(i love presentations

A young girl, wearing a white blouse and a pink pearl necklace. Her face is obscured by the strange graffiti. Oddly, there's nothing underneath when Slav tries looking.

7:25 PM

Although... He can feel she is frowning.

weird

// also I'm assuming y'all know what's going to be at the end of the path right

(yes

// yes definitely

Slav walks on.

// (no)

// huh?

7:27 PM

// yes or no

// i do not

((i feel like flint's is gonna be the only one with dungeon elements

7:27 PM

((his is gonna have loot and shit

// so is ???/slav's

(( AH

// I'm not totally sure what the goal is for this

((specifically some of that loot, the big shit, is gonna be artifacts from homestuck btw

// do I just continue describing or like

// it's a dungeon themed after the players

7:28 PM

// to get loots

((yeah do what you want its your characters' path

(is it for all players or just the ones that went in

// just the ones that went in sorry

(dammit fuck

// wait no i mean

7:29 PM

// the paths are themed after them

7:29 PM

// doesnt mean the loot wont be shared

// OOOH PERFECT IDEA

7:30 PM

// loot based on character relationships

(aw I would’ve liked making a cool path….

// so we can share the love a little

(oooh I like that

The three come upon a stretch of pedestals, holding items.

woah

One has a typical looking space themed laser blaster on it.

7:35 PM

It has a label on the side - SPACE BOY™.

oh shit

7:35 PM

>

7:35 PM

You grab the SPACE BOY™️.

7:36 PM

this is fucking cool

Flint: Shoot it!

>

7:36 PM

You fire it in a random direction.

It makes the most dinkiest, nerdiest PEW one could imagine.

7:36 PM

Though, it is extremely effective. It does some serious damage to the spot it was fired at.

(LIKE THE ROBLOX WEAPON???

// PROBABLY IDK

7:37 PM

// send me a video of it

(these should all be roblox themed I think

(( THIS

// I DONT KNOW WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE

7:38 PM

// but yeah probably

((HAHAHA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12nVMwGO7W0

Roblox Gear Sounds

Pew - XLS Mark II Pulse Laser Pistol - Roblox

((HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

7:38 PM

((THIS SUCKS LMAOO

// YES THATS IT

this is so dumb but so cool

7:44 PM

(words that can be used to describe me...)

Another has an eye patch on it. It is flesh toned, approximately the color of Slav's skin. On the front, a realistic eye is depicted. It looks angry.

7:54 PM

// @demeter!!

oh jesus christ

On closer inspection, it's just regular fabric. Nothing to be afraid of.

what IS this shit

// > On the third, is your mom's phone number. Please call her. She misses you.

(Slav takes it !

On another pedestal, a rectangular blade twisted into a helix. A note lies under it, the blade stabbed through it into the pedestal. "Drive this blade into those worthy and remove not till they bleed worth their burden. Heh, did you like that one? Came up with that just now. Not used to being cryptic and shit."

(edited)

10:35 PM

There are several other pedestals about, some appearing to be flat somehow, some clipped into the floor or wall, and some normal but holding junk items.

// @demeter!! @ectoMycologist

You grab the HELIX BLADE.

7:07 AM

reminds me of the double helix sword from zelda sorta

Flint: Read the note.

8:45 AM

Slav: Take eye patch.

Absolutely not. That's creepy as shit.

Okay, wow, asshole. Do you even know how long I spent as a disembodied consciousness generating that damn thing?

9:14 AM

You don't even have to wear it. Just stuff it in your stupid sylladex.

Slav's not gonna wear a fucking flesh-colored eyepatch.

Okay, dick.

9:15 AM

The eyepatch flies at Slav, whapping him in the face.

FINE. He'll at least captchalogue it.

who made this knife is smug as fuck (edited)

// it's like a dagger!

9:55 AM

// should've clarified

SHIT

// know knives and shit

9:55 AM

// Katie's thing

you've arrived at the entrance

((just putting this here

i dont use knives sadly slav you want it (edited)

OB WAIT

((nobody can see him he's literally at the stairs again

what if we like give it to someone else

9:58 AM

like. save it

yeah sure katie'd get a kick out of this

As the three continue, an assortment of large papers can be seen pinned to the wall.

10:10 AM

Journal entries, drawings...

10:10 AM

10:14 AM

PIPPE GONE

10:18 AM

Wet spots form on one drawing.

ten bucks dog got put down by parents

10:26 AM

christ

(katies first f-word

amoghg oh it says annoying

her parents are abusive, took away her dog, force her to be perfect, she wants to kill them

10:48 AM

open and shut case

Slavko I. Ranovic

her parents are abusive, took away her dog, force her to be perfect, she wants to kill them

((Ufallo: I can be her dog))

(awful

10:51 AM

(that's 002 actually

// 002: sorry im not a furry

10:52 AM

// phoebe: WOOF!!!

// Barking for Katie.

what does this have to do with-

10:55 AM

katie isn't even in here why is she the theme

// Flint is so fucking dense lmfao.

katie is todd's grandma

10:56 AM

this session was meant to be for the four that are descended from those guys

10:56 AM

have you guys done ANY fucking research

NO

// Wasn’t Flint Literally Told This

((he has the stupid

10:59 AM

((some things go in one ear and out the other

you're apollo's dad right

11:00 AM

then katie is todd's grandma

11:01 AM

and isaac is alain's brother

11:01 AM

so there's an ice tunnel for isaac

11:01 AM

this one was for katie but it looks like it's adjusting for jared

11:02 AM

so the other one must be for whoever marigold's related to

yeah

(rest in pese

)

// everyone gangsta until Katie’s dog rises from the dead

(FUCK tyler

elias: dont mind if i do

// HEHEHEHEH

This... Man, I feel like this is a MAJOR invasion of privacy...

Why didn’t you get Katie herself to come here?

Another pedestal, holding a crude figurine head, a caricature of Jared. It is labeled "dumbass".

This... Man, I feel like this is a MAJOR invasion of privacy...

@Jared Jackson (@DreamilyDrifting) - jump yeah yeah just wait until we see my tunnel

Okay that's actually really cool you're taking that

1:21 PM

You obtain the JARD HEAD.

wait i won't have a tunnel

1:21 PM

who the fuck is the plants one themed on

003?

Who the hell is that?

The three come across a 6 foot hole dug into the ground. Looks like you could bury a body in there.

1:22 PM

There are bundles of flowers and gifts around the hole.

1:22 PM

And a shovel nearby.

1:23 PM

The shovel is quite sharp. Stained with blood.

1:23 PM

The handle is pink.

1:23 PM

On closer inspection, the hole doesn't look like it was dug out by anyone. It's unnaturally neat and geometrical.

1:24 PM

There is nothing inside the hole.

// jared: well! who's getting in

Yo flint I dare you to climb down there!

absolutely not that happens in the long drive and you just fucking die

bet you better help me out

You hoist Flint down into the hole.

Your head barely pokes out the top.

this is so dumb lol

A horrible combination of fear, misery, pain, aggression, and shock washes over Flint. Purple sparks fly from his clothing, as if it were burning.

(edited)

aaaAAAGGGHHHHH WHAT THE FUCK

1:35 PM

GET ME OUT YOU ASSHOLE

This is embarrassing. Are you seriously still crying about it? Just get over it, Flint. We can get you a new dog, Christ. Stop whining.

(edited)

Your eyes have tears in them.

WHY DID I DO THIS PULL ME OUT YOU COCK

// PAUSE

Push him in.

Well, Eye singular.

// flint does still have tear ducts in the other eye socket right

(yes but the tears just well up in the hole.

1:39 PM

(like a gross bowl of sad soup

> This is embarrassing. Are you seriously still crying about it? Just get over it, Flint. We can get you a new dog, Christ. Stop whining.

@DreamilyDrifting - jump > You feel loss you've never experienced before.

You sort of ball up in the hole.

// dream said pause...

// I am back

1:57 PM

Flint hears someone walk away, crying.

1:57 PM

And a conversation between a man and a woman.

1:58 PM

M: "I didn't expect her to be so inconsolable. She's not usually so attatched."

(edited)

1:58 PM

F: "Well, no matter. The dog's already put down."

(edited)

1:59 PM

M: "Maybe we shouldn't have told her it died."

2:00 PM

F: "No, it's a lesson she needs to learn. Living things don't last forever."

(edited)

2:01 PM

F: "And the dog was a distraction. So it had to go. She can focus on her studies now."

(edited)

You're balled up at the bottom of the hole. Why are you crying because of someone else's memories???

F: "Don't think I'm not disappointed in you. You shouldn't have told her it died of natural causes. She needed to learn a lesson."

(edited)

2:03 PM

M: "You know she would hold that against us. For the rest of her LIFE she would hold that against us. I did what needed to be done."

(edited)

2:03 PM

F: "It doesn't matter if she hates us. She just needs to do well in life. You don't need to coddle her."

(edited)

2:04 PM

M: "..."

2:04 PM

F: "Would you stop staring at me?"

2:05 PM

F: "Go, fetch me a drink. Anything but that look."

2:05 PM

M: "...Yes, dear."

(edited)

2:08 PM

The conversation repeats over, and over.

FLINT WHAT'S HAPPENING MAN???

// @demeter!!

So. MUCH.

SLAV HELP ME GET HIM OUT

2:10 PM

You rush over, trying to pull flint up. He's, he's so heavy,

The burden weighs on Flint.

// ANYTHING BUT THAT LOOK

2:15 PM

// HOLY FUCK THATS SUCH A GOOD LINE

Slav runs over and grabs Flint's spare arm.

@DreamilyDrifting

HOIST: 2d20 (3, 14) Total: 17

Jared struggles, but Slav is making good progress.

@DreamilyDrifting

Result: 2d20 (20, 13) Total: 33

HOIST!

2:20 PM

Flint is pulled out of the hole.

2:22 PM

// @demeter!! @ectoMycologist

oh christ is he okay

What? Nothing's wrong. I'm not crying anymore. "Do you understand?" "Yes sir." "You understand it's nothing to cry over?" "Yes sir." "So we're over this little problem?" "Yes sir." "Good. You're a big girl, now. I'm proud of you." "Thank you."

2:30 PM

But you didn't. And you weren't.

2:30 PM

But it's fine. You're fine.

(edited)

2:30 PM

Flint is fine.

> im not a girl.

What

yeah i think we knew that

That's not like a denial thing is it? Are you closeted or something?

3:51 PM

Like, do you wanna be a girl but you're repressing it???

3:51 PM

Actually nevermind that's not important what the hell happened down there

Put Jared in.

((wait what's going on is this like a memory thing

// yes

((if so can I have Isaac walk over here

3:54 PM

((I have a Convo thatll relate to someone

// they're already pretty far down Katie's path

3:54 PM

// could they have the convo after?

//Convo as in memory btw

3:55 PM

//I guess I won't do it nvm then.

// this is all Katie stuff

3:55 PM

// are you wanting like an Isaac memory??

//yeah but I didn't know it was just Katie stuff apologies

// no problem

(you could probably do that on issac’s path

Actually nevermind that's not important what the hell happened down there

@Jared Jackson (@DreamilyDrifting) - jump do you wanna see because I can push you in

How about absolutely fucking not

aloe bama

(you could probably do that on issac’s path

((its more so that I want people to witness it

3:57 PM

((sorry lmao I got so confused on the situation

Sorry bro I am Not doing that

ive experienced so much trauma today half of which isn't my own

......Yeah.

// @demeter!!

christ what happened i was exploring the island and came back to you getting your ass kicked

a lot. some I don't remember apparently

// @demeter!! @ectoMycologist

...

what the fuck did you see down there

Push Slav into the hole.

I saw a fight. I felt the pain of a loss

4:27 PM

then I was told everything's okay

Didn't sound like everything was okay.

it wasnt

4:53 PM

>

4:53 PM

i wish i had a therapist i think im starting to go emotionally numb

do you not have someone to vent to

penny. i can't get my. words out though

5:08 PM

i want to scream but i dont know what to say so i bottle it up.

Maybe Penny isn’t the best person you can vent to.

((shut up

//Michi meteor therapist moment?

bottling it up isn't a great idea

5:21 PM

okay that makes me sound like a pompous dick

5:22 PM

obviously it's not your fault but

5:22 PM

just like

5:22 PM

if you need someone to talk to i'm around most of the time

Let's just... Keep going

In front of the three, a large, vast room lie at the end of the purple hallway. Inside, it is pitch black. Yet, everything inside is lit up by a dim ghostly blue moonlight.

8:34 PM

Mirrors are scattered throughout the room, as well as many items of furniture, covered in white cloth.

8:35 PM

The room is devoid of any connections. Doors. Or maybe there are more rooms. They don't matter. It is empty and unfulfilling.

(edited)

should we

Slav examines one of the mirrors.

His reflection is not his own.

Jared looks into a mirror, doing the classic fake-reflection bit. Katie mimes his movements perfectly.

what the FUCK

9:33 AM

THIS IS FREAKY

YA THINK???

Seems Jared's influence on the path has stopped, this far in.

I feel like she's about to burst through the mirror and shank me or something

Many voices echoes through the room, emanating from the mirrors. They speak in unison.

Why would I do that?

AAAAAGGHH I HATE THAT THIS IS LIKE A HORROR GAME

JESGAGAZHUS

I HATE THIS

Crack.

9:38 AM

The mirrors all crack in unison.

Run.

eeeEEEHEHHEHEHEEEE GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGO

I hate this.

You are extremely disturbed and afraid.

I am extremely disturbed and afraid.

I,, I can't do this man,,

STOP DOING THE THING TWO DID WHEN WE MET

I can't do this.

9:40 AM

Stop.

((if you remember the flesh abomination moment in flints head, youll know why he recognizes this whole schtick

Crack.

WHY ARE THEY BREAKING

The cracks grow larger and larger with the negativity.

Why am I breaking?

DUDE. I think we need to SHUT UP.

Shut up.

You zip it.

The cracks stop growing.

oh i get it

10:02 AM

flint high five me

You high five SLAV.

Wow it's so awesome and cool and so positive

There is only one Katie.

10:04 AM

So she is left hanging.

1

Tiny crack.

Slav high fives the mirror Katie.

His hand phases through the mirror.

He looks over at Flint and Jared.

10:06 AM

ok uh

Wh...

He takes off his jacket and ties it around his waist. He hands one sleeve to Jared and the other to Flint.

10:06 AM

i'm gonna try going in

You hold on tight.

but like pull me out if i start screaming or some shit

You got it man

You grip tightly as well.

ok cool

10:07 AM

Slav walks through the mirror.

Slav sees a large well lit room within a mansion, it seems. The room is filled with furniture and items, rugs and carpet, lamps and fireplaces, anything you could think of. It's maximalist in nature.

10:09 AM

Many different instances of Katie are interacting with the room in various ways - lounging on furniture, reading, dining, many things.

10:10 AM

They all seem to be enjoying themselves.

(( white woman convention

(white women jumpscare

slav you good

@demeter!! @DreamilyDrifting let's do this shit

@demeter!! @DreamilyDrifting RAAGGHHHH

// grr snarls

farts

// pisses

hm

1:38 PM

Slav walks back out.

What's in there???

yeah dude you were in there for a bit.

it was like ten seconds

1:42 PM

there's a bunch of katies it's kind of freaky

Jared pokes his head in quickly.

1:42 PM

Oooookay that is something.

yeah it's kind of hard to describe right

with all this negative emotion around. It almost feels like something has been looming a sad presence over the three. Perhaps moving onward would benefit you all soon enough?

No

Attempt to talk to the Katies inside.

((TALK TO HER INSIDES?? DO NOT. TALK TO HER WOMB. REPEAT DO NO

1

((the binding of isaac

> Attempt to talk to the Katies inside.

@????? (@hades) - jump > You... are NOT doing that.

Look further down the hall.

You proceed to look further down.

The large room ends at a staircase as wide as the room itself. A veiny pattern engraved into the floor begins shortly before the stairs, heading toward them and being engraved into the stairs as well.

.. lets. leave the katies be

yeah i kinda wanna get the fuck outta here

Leave me be.

The only way out is through.

The mirror Katies fade. The mirrors are absent of any reflections of the three.

You slowly start walking and quickly pick your pace up.

He runs down the hall.

You follow quickly.

The three step down the stairs. Step. Step. The steps echo throughout the long corridor. More pedestals lie on the stairs.

4:38 PM

A grave.

4:39 PM

"Pippy"

1

4:39 PM

A goblet filled with an indistinct alchoholic fluid.

oh jesus christ

A bloodstained blade. Blood continually pours down from the stain.

You're silent. You feel like the scum of the earth.

4:40 PM

You shouldn't be seeing this.

The same shovel from before sits on another pedestal.

(edited)

let's uh. let's hurry up

You hasten in your descent.

Ripped up papers filled with angered scribbles and stained with tears are spread around the stairs, pinned on the walls.

4:43 PM

// @ectoMycologist

4:44 PM

As the three continue down the stairs, the stairs become cluttered with expensive looking objects and items.

4:44 PM

They all look brand new. Never touched.

4:47 PM

// @ectoMycologist @demeter!!

Slav ignores them and weaves past them.

The three come upon the bottom of the staircase. And a giant door.

4:48 PM

THOMPSON HALL

...

You are entranced with the objects.

4:49 PM

What's there to grab?

You get a distinct feeling you shouldn't be touching any of this stuff.

Should... Should we...

5:47 PM

Like,

5:47 PM

We've already come too far to stop now. I think.

5:47 PM

Fuck, man.

let's hurry up.

You struggle to push one of the double doors. You barely open it a crack.

(edited)

Slav slams into it, pushing it a good deal.

5:50 PM

hey flint give us a hand

You ignore the valubles and run up the stairs, holding your forearm out in front of you

6:14 PM

IINCOMMIIING

@ectoMycologist

Result: 1d20 (2) Total: 2

You hit the door with a THUNK.

Both doors slowly creak open on their own.

6:21 PM

A large concert hall stands before the three.

6:22 PM

A stage in the very back. Pink curtains obscure whatever may lie on stage.

6:23 PM

As is usual for concert halls, there is a large seating section.

6:23 PM

Some seats are highlighted by spotlights.

6:23 PM

Nine, to be exact.

(edited)

6:30 PM

There is a podium directly in front of the entrance. There seems to be a guestbook.

You go read the guestbook.

I'm glad. I don't really. Want to stick around for whatever's supposed to happen here.

You go and sit in one of the illuminated seats.

The spotlight shuts off. And then turns on again, now a deep purple.

7:08 PM

Flint cannot move.

7:11 PM

It blared in the other two's heads as well.

oh great more voices

DUDE FLINTS STUCK

8:11 PM

i think as long as we don't sit down we'll be fine

I think it might just be for the guests of honor

8:11 PM

This is still kind of fucking freaky man!!

I think it might just be for the guests of honor

@Jared Jackson (@DreamilyDrifting) - jump do you really wanna test that

...No.

This is still kind of fucking freaky man!!

@Jared Jackson (@DreamilyDrifting) - jump uh considering what we've seen this kind of pales in comparison

//remove flints upper body and let his legs regrow away from the seat! easy!

yeah it's freaky but we've made it through a military invasion

Yeah, yeah, okay.

// FLINT STUCK FLINT STUCK

// slav and jared calmly talking about how flint is going to die and its fine

I think we should like. Get this performance started though.

// while flint looks on in horror

So we can get Flint the fuck out of here

that sounds like a bad idea without knowing the consequences behind it

Well do you want us to just leave him here forever??? (edited)

CAN YOU NOT

yeah that sounds good he's kind of a complainer

8:14 PM

byeee fliiiint

8:14 PM

Slav mimes walking away and then turns back toward them.

8:14 PM

no obviously fucking not

Facepalm.

8:14 PM

Okay. All I'm getting is. This is supposed to be Katie's shit, right?

8:14 PM

Maybe she needs to be here.

8:14 PM

For whatever the fuck is supposed to happen!

maybe we just need something of hers

8:16 PM

Slav digs through his sylladexes.

8:16 PM

here it is

8:16 PM

Slav extends a copy of the SMARTKNIFE.

You grab it.

(( @DreamilyDrifting 1. are we doing this 2. did you ask the people that will be involved

Hold on

1:24 PM

Lord.

An unusual feeling of confusion and unease rushes through you.

My acolyte

1:24 PM

Thompson

1:24 PM

Requires a favor

1:24 PM

Of you

DON’T OPEN THE DOOR.

How rude of me To not introduce "Myself"

You froze. You stopped struggling.

half of these names I don't know.

Perhaps I am not

YOU ARE AN IDIOT

Speaking clearly

// flint: "who the hells name is 'yourself'? that name fucking sucks"

1

Flint's mind runs white hot with a pain unknowable. A horrible cacophonous symphony of static and blaring horns fills his mind. Spoken clearly to his mind by Rage are the identities of the witnesses.

Your hands clenched the armrests.

1:34 PM

aaaaAAAAAGGGGHHHHHH

Green beacons of light shot from your eyes, yellow sparks arc from you and into the ground.

JESUS FLINT WHAT'S WRONG!!

Blood shot from your nose and tear ducts. Silhouettes began forming at in the seats.

One silhouette forms at the beginning of the purple path.

@hades @demeter!! @Rhys ｡.ﾟ+ @SPOOKY CROW

IT.. BURNS

((sorry i was jelqng

1:37 PM

((what do i do

// deme isn’t even out of apush yet

// just have penny appear (she'll appear in a spotlighted seat and she cannot move)

1:38 PM

// also yes pause until demes back!

you appear within a seat, a spotlight above your head

Your jaw was clenched hard. You were being put through the electric chair without the death.

DreamilyDrifting started a thread. 12/14/2022 1:40 PM

You finally stop being fried by your own ability. The green silhouettes of fire and electricity remain. They will materialize when they're ready.

1:44 PM

Smoke comes from your mouth when you breathe out.

1:44 PM

A thick purple smoke.

> Flint: How do you feel?

terrible.

1:50 PM

i feel terrible.

1:50 PM

You can. Hear them.

1:51 PM

You continued breathing slowly. The smoke still came out.

You can't do anything but hold his hand. You give him a look. "I'm here."

It's like theyre there in the room with you.

(edited)

1:55 PM

it hurts so much

(fuck,,)

2:47 PM

((basically once slav reacts

WHAT THE FUCK!?

IT.. BURNS

2:50 PM

The electricity crackled, You spasmed wildly, to the extend of which you could move, at least.

(edited)

Slav puts his hand on Flint's shoulder nervously.

You're sweaty. The electricity shocks slav with immense power.

FUCK

Jared stands attent, cautious, reaching for Flint's hand.

2:53 PM

FLINT MY GOD

He takes the eyepatch from his sylladex. A good electricity insulator.

2:53 PM

He rests his hand on Flint's shoulder through the eyepatch, the material keeping the electricity from rocketing through Slav's body.

Then, it stopped. Your head drops in front of you. Purple smoke flows from your mouth rhythmically, at the same pace as your breathing.

Oh god oh god oh god

You cough. A massive plume of smoke puffs out and travels upward.

// how many of the guests of honor have appeared

(( all of their silhouettes are there, just up to the players to have them actually appear

// oooh that's good actually

2:56 PM

// Katie's already appeared obvs

2:57 PM

Phoebe starts hyperventilating.

// @hades whenever you're ready

You sat, basically glued to your chair, looking like a malfunctioning automaton.

Holy shit you are all so fucking loud

// @SPOOKY CROW also you!!

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING -

3:00 PM

Jared coughs from straining his voice.

You groggily pull your head up. Blood is coming from your nostrils and tear duct.

Fuck,, what,, what is going ON

Your head is pounding.

Jesus Christ calm doen

shit shit shit

As people appear in the seats, the previously red spotlights turn purple.

.. okay.

Your voice is quiet.

3:01 PM

You look up.

oh

The seating section is mostly dark. If you focus for a second, you can tell everything is colored purple.

... Oh.

3:02 PM

It's her, isn't it?

In front of everyone lies a stage. Pink curtains obscure everything onstage.

You turn your attention to the stage. You sat quietly.

This is familiar to Tyler. This is a near exact recreation of the theater in Katie's house. Well, her parents' house.

3:04 PM

He remembers attending some of her recitals.

((would penny know too or

// hmmmmm I'd say yes

3:05 PM

// they knew eachother enough that Katie's parents would have invited penny and her parents over too

// hang on

// even if they did hate eachother

this.. place seems.. familiar?

SPOOKY CROW

// hang on

((oki

// i was picturing that they only hated each other after a whjle

// hanging

You blink slowly.

.. how so

// like when they were kids, the three of them were all friends

((hanging on

// like when they were kids, the three of them were all friends

// I agree

3:06 PM

// pause for a bit! I'll be back

5:11 PM

((also why'd you ping midjourney bot

// crow I think you can go ahead and write initial dialogue for your characters

// @hades

On closer inspection, the floor around you and the chair itsself is scorched.

((if we all start rping ill share with you guys some cool concept art im making for a homestuck fnf mod :3

wh...where am i?

You cough up more smoke.

.. the temple.

5:17 PM

s sorry my throat hurts.

A voice echoes through everyone's minds.

THE RECITAL WILL BEGIN SHORTLY

this is one of the paths inside.

5:17 PM

Your arms twitch instinctively to go and grab your ears, but you can't.

Fuck,, ff,, fuck, man,,

5:18 PM

We are way too fucking deep in this shit,,

Jared's body suddenly shoots towards the chair next to Flint. He is now similarly stuck.

SSHHEJEESUS

5:18 PM

FUCK!!

HELL NO

... Alain blinks and looks around curiously. He cocks a brow curiously, squinting towards the others in the room.

...flint?? jared? where um, are we?

Sure 's hell beats me.

Slav books it to the door.

mary??

Mhm.

Marigold shrugs in her chair. She appears confused, but highly intrigued.

As the group bickers... the room feels as if it grows

colder.

Slav's body shoots towards a seat before he can reach the door.

5:20 PM

He's on the other side of Flint.

FUCK.

"Hey whats wrong Slav"

asks a voice, from another chair.

...flint?? jared? where um, are we?

@Alain Meirhart (@SPOOKY CROW) - jump temple.

You're oddly shortworded.

Slav's skin crawls.

As does Jared's.

"Whats wrong man? Do you need to"

chill out?

It's him. He's here too.

((isaac at the start of the temple like "man thats a lot of sound

You audibly gag.

Rhys ｡.ﾟ+

((isaac at the start of the temple like "man thats a lot of sound

(LOL

Too,, bleegghh,, too MUCH

5:23 PM

You're freaking the fuck out.

5:23 PM

Ggh,, FUCK, MAN!!!

You raise your head.

.. what's with the getup

uhm.. i cant.. move

You look hollow.

His presence causes the party's fingers and feet to grow cold. His mere negative body heat makes their skin shiver.

This is my god tier outfit. Hows it look

(flint looking like the "yes dear" wojak rn

.. shorts aren't doin much for you scheme's good. i guess

5:24 PM

i wouldnt wear it.

Your snarkiness still shows through exaustion.,

On one arm, frostbite has separated his limb in two distinct points. On his leg, there is a patch of similar frostbite making up a large gash on the front.

Good. Its not made for you

Todd senses a familiarity in this theater. It's almost like his grandmother's old piano room.

(edited)

...

5:25 PM

Todd says nothing.

5:25 PM

The air grows colder. He grows more upset.

Oh, hey, Todd.

fair. .. why do you think you're a guest of honor

5:25 PM

it made me get you here for a reason

Uh, he's related to Katie.

Yeah.

5:26 PM

Thanks for that by the way. Dick

oh. .. kinda forgot.

5:26 PM

You turn your head back to the stage.

...c-can you please explain why i can't get up??????????????????

Thanks for that by the way. Dick

@Todd Sablet (@SPOOKY CROW) - jump Hey man, chill.

Good one. Except not really

y--yeah

That one deserves the cold shoulder from me. Get some better material

A voice echoes through everyone's minds.

YOU WILL STAY SEATED UNTIL THE PERFORMANCE HAS ENDED

(edited)

I like physical comedy more anyways so this sh

Nic--jesus.

OW??!?!?!?!?

Marigold winces.

God damn okay

hnngh...

You hacked a sickening cough. Sorta like an old, sick grandpa that smoked since he was 12.

You're shaking.

Christ, this is gonna be bad when Katie gets here.

Todd grimaces. His eyebrow twitches. Ice grows around his chair and up the legs. It feels as if the room has become a freezer.

// @hades GET OVA HEAH

You're shaking and shivering.

You guys like piano?

Katie's an excellent pianist.

(edited)

ughh..

SELF-FRAYMOTIF: PIECE OF THE GREEN SUN. Bits of you combust into bright green fire, but not a destructive fire. It's a warm, comfortable sensation.

(edited)

5:30 PM

You sighed.

5:31 PM

You lean your head back, staring at the ceiling.

Flint and Todd are both overtaken by a twisted, burning, terrible misery, fear, and anger. They are overwhelmed.

5:31 PM

THERE WILL BE NO DISTURBANCES BEFORE, DURING, OR AFTER THE PERFORMANCE.

you are seated next to tyler, of all people

Blood drips from Tyler's face, staining his suit.

5:32 PM

He looks horribly bruised.

you cant help but try your best to not look at him

Fuck. Fuck

5:33 PM

Fuck shut up shut UP

For the first time ever heard by anyone in the room, Todd screams.

Shut the fuck UP

The room warms up.

Quit it.

5:33 PM

Won't have you ruining her performance.

I dont WANT to be here I dont want to be in this SHITHOLE fucking PIANO FUCKING GRANDMA FUCKING MOTHER FUCKING

Todd continues to yell, as his skin only grows colder and colder. Frostbite and black ooze emerge from under his shades. His hands clench hard.

Man the fuck up, dipshit.

The feeling grows stronger in Todd. He feels an intense, searing, emotional pain.

5:35 PM

CEASE

(edited)

// can we wait a little bit for hades

// yes

> Flint and Todd are both overtaken by a twisted, burning, terrible misery, fear, and anger. They are overwhelmed.

@DreamilyDrifting - jump > 2 seperate streams of both blood and tears sort of pooled and flowed down your face.

I didnt WANT this I DIDNT WANT THIS FUCKI

Todd grits his teeth, with frozen blood piercing his skin in several areas with long spikes--making a defensive thorny aura around himself. He is intensely seething.

(edited)

// okay, pausing ^_^

You're good at hiding the fact you're overwhelmed.

// YOU GUYS DIDNG START YET???

6:21 PM

hnnngh..

// @demeter!!

Let's fucking start already.

jesus CHRIST you are alll so loud for no reason

@Sophia Montoya (@hades) - jump YOU DONT FUCKING UNDERSTAND.

Todd screams, and his glasses fall-- revealing rotting, dark, black voids pulsing with black liquid and tears, his pupils naught but white glowing pupils staring at Sophia--twitching in rage.

You seriously think you're the only fucking person here with problems, don't you?

you struggle to get up but ultimately fail. You slump down as much as you can

Har har very funny you fucking asshole of ice

Im the ONLY one HERE related to THIS fucking BITCH

hey Tyler... You look like... Shit..

Yeah, Katie beat the shit out of me.

when..?

Snrk

Like, ten minutes ago?

man... Deserved

Im the ONLY one HERE related to THIS fucking BITCH

@Todd Sablet (@SPOOKY CROW) - jump Watch your mouth.

You let out a wheezy laugh.

Or you'll be on the ground faster than you can say bullet.

hhHAAHAHAHAA

HAHAHAHAHHAHA

ehe. Bullet

Ill love to see that.

6:30 PM

Ok that was a good one.

The pun strategy works flawlessly.

Tyler feels the rage burn within him.

NO. DISTURBANCES.

Im more annoyed at you and less fucking full of intense rage

alright everyone shut up we gotta let katie perform or something

The feeling fades for Todd and Flint.

save it for afterrrr

the rage thing is gonna just keep doing this stupid chair glue thing-

You feel oddly relieved.

Yeah, it works every time.

6:31 PM

Tyler winces.

6:31 PM

Let's get this show on the road--or on the stage, as it were.

For the past hour your eye has been red. The burning hot glow of your iris finally dies down.

Todd takes deeeep breaths...

Marigold squints as she slowly uses her space powers to bring his glasses back to his face... gross.

Alain whispers to Todd to calm him down.

AND SO IT BEGINS

6:33 PM

The doors of Thompson hall slam open. The sound booms like thunder through the Theater.

(edited)

You jump.

6:33 PM

JEEZUS-

GHHEGHH!!!

woah

eek!

There's nobody behind the doors, however.

6:34 PM

How odd.

???

Footsteps echo from behind the pink curtains.

must've been the wind.. snrk

skyrim npc moment

Heavy footsteps.

6:35 PM

Everyone gets a bad feeling. A little bit of dread lingers on their minds.

Flint Turing

must've been the wind.. snrk

skyrim npc moment

// flint unironically watches those oblivion npc compilations on youtube

((HOLY SHIT NOAH DMS RQ LEMME ASK SUMN

yeesh whats with this place and toying with emotions christ

This is usual for Sophia ever since Alice died.

you've really only felt this sense of dread from one person before... Could it be?

The doors slowly close.

6:38 PM

// @demeter!!

Todd feels more anger than dread, but whatever.

(edited)

Alain takes a deep breath...

Marigold keeps her head up.

Tyler stares down the curtains.

You look at the stage.

A microphone screeches to life, blaring through the theater from no particular source.

Slav's eyes open.

Hello?

6:39 PM

I know you're all there.

you simply watch

The curtains remain closed.

Nobody gonna speak up?

...

self aware as well? oh my fucking good

hi?

get on with it

Hey.

hey katie

Ha. Wow.

6:41 PM

You all really came here for me huh?

6:41 PM

Don't answer that. Rhetorical.

i wasnt expecting to be here but im here nonetheless

Great.

6:42 PM

So I guess I'm supposed to play the fucking piano, huh?

6:42 PM

Fun. That's ironic.

No do whatever oh my god we had a whole talk about it

Hey, shut up.

You had an Allison moment and everything

Sophia is silenced.

----, -- ---- --- ---- --- ----

Hah.

6:43 PM

I bet this is super awkward for you guys, huh?

6:43 PM

Listening to this bitch on stage

6:43 PM

Saying shit you probably already know

You're not a bitch.

Shut up.

Tyler is silenced.

.. katie i really never had a negative opinion of you outside of when you were egomaxxing but who doesn't

6:45 PM

hell even i do

Man, you guys just can't stop talking, huh?

6:45 PM

Ha.

6:46 PM

You know I bet some of you think you've had it worse than me

6:46 PM

And you know? You're probably right

You stayed quiet yourself. You know most of what she's talking about, from the grave.

I killed a girl. Or, Thea made me. Hi Thea. I know you're there. Can't see you, but I feel you.

6:47 PM

Her sister's here too. The girl I killed, I mean.

You shot a dirty look at Thea.

6:47 PM

(the moment we get out of these chairs so help me god)

Thea looks down at the table. She hasn't moved.

Her sister's here too. The girl I killed, I mean.

6:48 PM

Sure does seem like Sophia has a lot to say!

Spent way too much time crying over that bitch. You know, maybe it was just a little comment. A snide remark. Whatever. She deserved it. Lol.

Flint Turing

(the moment we get out of these chairs so help me god)

// FLINT DIDNT EVEN CARE ABOUT ALICE BEFORE

6:48 PM

// DONT PULL THIS NOW

Maybe I'm the bitch. Maybe I was an asshole for starting a knife fight with some random girl because I got my ass kicked out of the meteor.

6:49 PM

Who knows, right?

6:49 PM

By the way, thanks for that, Marigold.

6:49 PM

You know, it's kind of your fault Alice is dead. Funny!

hades

// FLINT DIDNT EVEN CARE ABOUT ALICE BEFORE

Marigold is puzzled. Who?

SPOOKY CROW

Marigold Abella

Marigold is puzzled. Who?

// one thousand year rain of spears

// literally

6:50 PM

(he would not)

And I gotta give a shout-out to my main man Tyler too. You're a murderer too. Yeah, yeah, I'm telling your business.

// cant even DEFEND me saying you dont care about alice smh

Tyler nods.

((he may understand her more but my god he wants to do this to her

6:51 PM

Todd thinks this is actually kind of funny. He snickers slightly--even though it's very obvious he does not wanna be here.

You know he just kills people for his company? Ain't that fucked up.

6:51 PM

But whatever. I'm a killer too. I guess it doesn't matter, right?

arent you gonna play piano

(God what did I miss huh)

Shut it, space boy. I'll get to it.

6:53 PM

You like that laser gun thingy by the way? I know you took it.

6:53 PM

Don't really understand how I know that but like, I do.

Shit-eating grin.

6:53 PM

im keeping it too its cool

Sweet.

6:54 PM

So... What's next on the list of annoyances?

you stare quietly

Gah, how could I forget. That little shit Alain.

6:54 PM

Sorry not sorry. You are kind of a little shit, yeah? You get me.

you remember her beautiful piano recitals she did for you. You can't wait to hear them again.

I kinda understand what you did now. Something with my soul?

6:55 PM

That's messed up. You used your god powers on me because I was like, annoying you?

6:56 PM

Imagine if I stabbed you because YOU'RE annoying. Imagine me just slicing you open and spilling your guts.

Alain... frowns. He looks down in guilt.

You like imagining that?

6:57 PM

Thiiiiink about it.

no. and i understand it was wrong... but you were bullying others, and being mean. i did a wrong thing. but it doesn't change that you did, too.

A crowd of laughter can be heard from behind the curtains.

Oh, I was being MEEEAAAAAN.

6:58 PM

So that means you rip my fucking soul out, right?

6:58 PM

Lol.

6:58 PM

Cry me a fucking river.

Alain begins crying.

He inhales, as tears gush down his cheeks.

i made a lot of mistakes... and what i did hurt. it was wrong and i was wrong. i should have tried speaking to you... being down to earth with you. we can both change for the better, miss katie. this act doesn't have to be so nihilistic like this.

You're staying silent to avoid the onslaught of verbal murder. You so want to say something vile and angry about the dog.

6:59 PM

The inner 7channer in you has been quelled. for now.

> flimt: but wouldnt itt be like fuckig funny hah aah h

Lol. Change for the better? That's rich. Like me. You know I'm rich, right?

Phoebe bows her head in silence.

HAHAHAHA

7:07 PM

Todd is smiling and laughing. He is the only one here having a good time with this.

Wow, shut up for a second.

Tears from Phoebe's eyes hit the ground in unison with blood dripping from Tyler's face.

No YOU shut up. Or better yet use that fucking rambling ass rich bitch white ass mouth of yours to tell us why were here instead of rambling on about how much you hate everyone in the room and how much everyone is a hypocrite like you

7:08 PM

Fucking bitch

Flint Turing

Mmm. Would I call you grandma boy then?

GAHAHAHAHA OKAY FUCK. GOOD one

Todd cracks up.

7:09 PM

God youre a bitch but youre funny as fuck even if you are a massive fucking disappointment to everyone in this room

Well, no, that's not right is it? You had one. She just hated you. I mean, I can see why.

Oh yeah and how did you parents treat you?

No, don't "that's right" me, idiot. I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

You were abandoned just like me because I saw myself in this timeline abandon YOU through Prospit.

I...

Go on. Speak like the fucking dog that got put down.

7:12 PM

Any smart remarks? Come on go on and say something

STOP WITH THE DOG BECAUSE I ACTUALLY GET THE JOKE

Todd laughs at Flint.

Hey, Katie.

Katie Thompson

You're a boy. You're. Fuck, that's not...

// BWAHAHAHAH SHE DIDNT KNOW TODD WAS TRANS

Take a good look at your fucking "grandma," bitch.

7:13 PM

Todd smiles a shit-eating grin.

A crowd laughing can be heard behind the pink curtains. It's loud.

AIN'T THAT FUCKING IRONIC.

> god damn

7:15 PM

do any of you think you're cool with this shit

No I think Im FUNNY. Because this is a FUNNY ACT

you're not anything

Also haha cool.

do any of you think you're cool with this shit

@Slavko I. Ranovic (@demeter!!) - jump trust me im not cool with any of this im just letting it happen

you're just saying bullshit because you want to feel better about the fact that your grandma abandoned you

Wow. Damn really hitting under the skin huh cyclops

you want her to feel the same pain so that she can look you in your frostbitten eyes and feel the same pain you do

Fuck, you're all so fucking annoying.

you say you're numb but you're clearly not

Todd says nothing, but he grimaces a grin at Slav. Oh, he's struck something.

pretending to be something made of ice

7:17 PM

but the way you're so arrogant shows that you're just frozen

7:17 PM

and she's clearly thawing you out

This guy gets it.

Wow look at mister fucking psychiatrist over here

// slav gets a prize

no shut up both of you

// I was literally fucking considering something like that

1

todd you completely missed that pun

No I got it I just dont care

you're a rich maniac who thinks just because she was abused by her parents she gets to be an asshole to others

Todd Sablet

Wow look at mister fucking psychiatrist over here

(as opposed to other mister psychiatrist

// mister abstinence psychiatrist

// HEHEHEH

What's your excuse, Slavvy? You pulled a gun on me because you thought I was annoying, or something.

(flint literally the guy holding the camera in those supa hot fire vines

i can't believe killing someone didn't make you realize your own stupidity

What kind of fucking nickname is Slavvy

What's your excuse, Slavvy? You pulled a gun on me because you thought I was annoying, or something.

@Katie Thompson (@DreamilyDrifting) - jump it wasn't loaded

You can do better. Fucking god be original

What kind of name is Todd? You couldn't have picked a better one?

i talk a loooot of shit but i'm scared to actually hurt someone

7:19 PM

but at least i fucking realize that

Better than whatever the fuck "Katie" is. Seriously you were BORN with that name??

instead of pretending everything's fine

7:19 PM

and you, todd

Its Katherine.

7:20 PM

...

// kate: heyyy

katie your initials spell your name out

7:20 PM

i wouldnt be talking

you pretend you're so cool to make yourself feel better about the fact that everyone abandoned you

7:20 PM

but then because of your hurry to hide your emotion you don't realize when people DO care about you

7:20 PM

alain, mary

7:20 PM

they've both helped you

7:21 PM

if you'd take out the icicle shoved up your ass maybe you could give them some respect back

It's funny how all your friends fucking hate you.

shut up

--- -- ---- -----------------

Todd glares at Slav. His expression is an unreadable forced smirk. He legitimately doesn't care about Katie's prods.

Whatever. You don't care, right? I can tell.

he clearly does

He doesn't. I can feel it.

he's hiding his eyes behind those sunglasses because they give away everything about him

7:22 PM

charred by the frost and pleading for help, then refusing to accept it

he gives so little of a shit he gives too much of a shit the cyclical path of shits given is astounding.

but it isn't true!!!

Alain cuts in.

we DO care about todd... todd is our friend. we would never stop caring about him.

Yeah, who're YOU to say?!

Todd glances over at them, but turns his gaze back at Slav.

both of you hate each other and yourselves because you're the exact same

Oh, that's funny. So you guys are okay with him just about killing some random alien for no reason?

7:23 PM

Yeah, I know about that. Don't know how, but I do.

That there alien was an abuser!!!

what?

7:23 PM

hold on, what?

The grey one?

amalga?

Oh, wait, which alien?

amalga not masumi

7:24 PM

masumi deserved it

Oh, wait shit you did what?

Eh.

Todd shrugs.

masumi scares me i dont trust the fact that she was pronounced dead

as i was saying

7:25 PM

you two see yourself in one another

7:25 PM

hell, you practically led the same life

7:25 PM

you just found different coping mechanisms, both unhealthy

Marigold. Alain. You're comfortable with your friend nearly murdering an innocent martian?

2

shut up

7:25 PM

they're not a martian

7:25 PM

and katie look at tyler

Whatever. Doesn't change my point.

look at phoebe

7:26 PM

look at SOPHIA.

7:26 PM

you're no better

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Silence.

Slav is silenced.

you both would hate to admit it, but he's you. and you're her, todd.

7:26 PM

He gets in his last words.

Godddd fucking thank you.

7:26 PM

Thats the ONE time Im ever going to say that to you.

Silence Todd too lol

Marigold looks at Todd with a furrowed brow. She's going to have a very stern discussion with him about that topic after this.

Oh, you shouldn't be thanking me.

7:28 PM

I know I can't really get an edge in just jabbing at you verbally.

7:29 PM

But I can do this!

You can go fuck yourself?

7:29 PM

Wow how informative. I will disregard this information immediately

Todd's mind bursts with a searing emotional pain.

You feel that, guy?

And just in that instant, he stops, and his body freezes over with a thick layer of hard, spiky ice--covering him head to toe.

Alain is surprised and incredibly concerned. He can feel his brother's pain.

Haaaaah. I know you feel that too, Alain. Like that?

It worsens, and worsens.

n... no...

Alain isn't hurt by it... but he feels great regret and sorrow.

And the ice grows thicker, and spikier.

Just... A little... FURTHER!

Todd's mind explodes with a terrifying dark energy.

7:32 PM

Not literally. But it's formidable.

Douche. The keeper and user of their aspect. One who lets their aspect build up over time, to use it for destruction.

(edited)

7:33 PM

Todd screams from inside, and ice destroys the ground and tears up from beneath it--stabbing in a forward direction several times towards the stage.

The spikes all melt before just before they can reach the stage.

jeezus

Wow, doesn't feel good, does it?

7:34 PM

Okay, I'll stop.

The feeling ends as quick as it began.

Alain looks viscerally uncomfortable.

Marigold wishes she could move her arms. Though, her hands DO work...

Todd is completely still.

is that possible?

You do the PILOT'S TECHNIQUE to put yourself to sleep.

Flint falls asleep and immediately jolts awake.

Marigold reads through her sylladex on her right arm...

Marigold: Get the overwhelming feeling that this is not a good idea.

Go on, Sophia. I know you have something to say to her.

@Katie Thompson (@DreamilyDrifting) - jump say to who?

7:49 PM

you, or thea? because I don't care about thea.

7:49 PM

I stopped caring about Thea ever since Alain did that bullshit on me.

7:49 PM

but I never stopped caring about you.

7:49 PM

to see you backsliding like this.... I'm disappointed.

7:49 PM

resorting to getting under everyone's skin and dissing them out.

7:49 PM

You don't care, right? Like me.

7:49 PM

You think of yourself so high and mighty and yet-

7:49 PM

You're just another name. Another person. Another body to be buried.

7:49 PM

No one special. No one cool or unique or anything like that. Just another thing to be forgotten.

7:49 PM

You're not doing anything.

What feeling? Partner. You've never once made a bad decision in your life. Marigold squints... and eyes the NESSIE'S NINE-IRON TWELVE-SHOT WONDER in her sylladex.

Sophia's mind burns. She can feel the hatred retuning.

Todd is cackling willingly.

Marigold laughs as she chokes up on tears.

Alain, though the Noob of Heart is not swayed. He stays still, eyes towards the body. The fully realized Noob. The only one not laughing. Resisting the urge.

Tyler struggles to lift his knife.

Katie's blood begins glowing. It flashes a spectrum of colors.

The curtains close quickly.

Sophia sits back and watches Katie do a typical Joker Trick.

...Alain sees it. Wait. He knows.

Everyone is so happy.

Tyler is sobbing laughing.

LMFAOOOOOOOO

(edited)

The curtains open.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

A silhouette sits on the piano chair. She plays effortlessly.

Todd is having the worst time.

She glows and flashes brightly.

8:02 PM

It hurts to look. But nobody can look away.

8:03 PM

Behind her, a set of purple curtains.

8:03 PM

As the song progresses, the purple curtains open.

8:04 PM

Several instruments acting of their own accord. They play the different components of the song.

8:04 PM

As the song goes on, the piano flies in the sky, the silhouette along with it.

8:04 PM

She plays faster and faster. Frantically, even.

8:04 PM

She must be perfect.

8:04 PM

She cannot embarrass her parents.

8:05 PM

She must put on a show.

She’s gonna break her fingers.

You are impressed.

She glows and flashes brighter and brighter, playing faster and faster, the orchestra playing along with her.

8:05 PM

She floats perfectly above the middle of the room.

8:06 PM

As she reaches the middle, everyone feels a deep burning dread. They light with purple flames, that do not burn externally, but internally.

8:06 PM

Their arms raise and they clap. They clap harder and harder. Their hands hurt.

Ouch.

They scream and cheer. They scream until their lungs push out no more air.

Pommel put you through more intense shit.

Her playing is beautiful, isn't it?

All of the smoke is pushed out of your lungs.

Todd stares on. She was always beautiful at piano. He held great disdain for her. He was jealous of her. She was everything he wasn't, and he resented her for it, because it hurt him so for her to abandon him.

8:08 PM

Todd cuffs his hands with ice made from blood spiking out from his veins, to stop from clapping.

She's playing so fast the sound is a blur. Everyone feels the melody in their mind, but they hear nothing but a cacophony of noise.

She does not deserve it.

Tears drop from her eyes.

8:09 PM

She's so happy.

8:09 PM

Everyone loves her.

8:09 PM

Todd does not. Her grandson glares at her with spite.

Her parent glares at her with disappointment.

Everyone's eyes burn.

8:12 PM

They can't close their eyes.

8:12 PM

They don't want to look away.

Their eyes melt in their sockets. They can't look away.

8:12 PM

Their faces melt off. They can't look away.

Everyone cries.

And suddenly.

8:13 PM

The music stops.

The crowd stops.

The piano crashes down.

8:13 PM

The silhouette remains in the air.

Flashing a bright, strobing, spectrum of colors and patterns.

8:14 PM

SPARK OF RAGE

Katie floats in the sky, an aura of crackling purple rage surrounding her.

Everyone is released from their seats.

She raises a fist to the sky.

Tyler finishes carving the rune in his hand.

Tendrils of seething rancorous energy stretch out like veins from Katie's fist.

Everyone else moves, so YOU move.

8:18 PM

TOWARDS THE FUCKING DOORS YOU ARENT DOING THIS NOW

The Theater is being destroyed.

You jump out of your seat and BOLT.

Descend.

Katie descends slowly.

You stumble over the other chairs, clamoring to the doors in the back.

// @demeter!! @SPOOKY CROW

Sophia bravely walks towards Katie herself.

Tyler stands up and holds his arm in front of Sophia.

Sophia strides towards Katie.

Wait, you're the lord of space.

Tyler holds Sophia back.

You wanna die, little girl? It won't be Thea forcing me this time.

Tyler activates the rune on his hand.

Tyler's face is bruised and bloody. His body is full of open wounds. His hand is bleeding profusely.

We were outside the room. You walked over and sat by me.

I had recently--well, three months ago, but I was still obsessed--got my first game of my own.

8:38 PM

It was Pokemon Black and White. Nintendo DS.

8:38 PM

You didn't really know what Pokemon was, though.

You showed me your shiny Pokemon. It was special because it was a different color.

8:39 PM

Funny.

Yeah. Metapod. It was the worst one, I said.

8:40 PM

You didn't really seem interested, but you liked the look of the Pokemon.

8:41 PM

You still had your stutter.

You pointed it out and I slapped you.

Yeah. Made fun of my lisp, too.

8:42 PM

You were waiting for me to hit back, but I didn't. You asked why.

8:43 PM

I said you can't hit a girl.

I said you were a wuss.

We argued over that for about an hour.

I started laughing because of how ridiculous it was.

Then, the meeting was over.

8:45 PM

We were supposed to go home.

8:45 PM

Remember what happened?

...We...

8:46 PM

We hid.

8:46 PM

We went and hid behind one of the huge potted plants.

And then I asked you if you wanted to be best friends.

8:47 PM

You slide off the lid. Inside lies a few objects. A bright green assault rifle, a white stick, and a pair of round sunglasses.

What are you, A sun hunter?

This place is creepy. What’d I even miss?

In the light of the torch, the sunglasses have a space design on them, plus a screen where they'd meet your eyes.

You obtained the COMPUSOOTH SPECTAGOGGLES.

9:56 PM

9:58 PM

You grab the GREEN ASSULT RIFLE. It's a bright green bullpup emblazoned with a sun insignia.

You obtained the GREEN SUN STREETSWEEPER.

9:58 PM

You held up the WHITE WAND.

Who would even

What's in the other chests?

That's what you're gonna find out.

Slav pats Jared on the back.

You wave the wand around. The end of the wand has a trail.

tf

10:01 PM

You spin it in your fingers like a drumstick. The trail flashes between a few colors.

haha nice

(( btw check #deleted-channel

You pocket the WHITE WAND.

You move onto a red chest with a cogwheel om the front, sitting the lid aside. Inside are a pair of shades with the APPLE LOGO on the front of each of the lenses.

ew.

8:23 AM

As well as a sword, and a captchalogue card.

8:24 AM

The card is yellow and contains two cogs with a halved keyboard on top of each part of the apparatus.

huh.

8:26 AM

You inspect the sword. It's a pure white, broad bastard sword with a comically wide, spiked handguard. You obtained the TURNTOP, CALEDFWLCH, and the I-SHADES.

8:36 AM

You shimmy off of Slav's back.

8:37 AM

Your knees feel a little weak, but you can walk just fine.

8:37 AM

Your hands are quite blistered, however.

You look inside the chest. There's two JUGGLING CLUBS inside, and another weird twisty looking purple one. There's also a purple outfit... Kind of like... Hers.

oh. it's clown shit HAHAHAHAHA

...There's also some potion bottles of some strange colorful liquids. Must be POTIONS.

You take everything in the chest, and allocate your extra strife specibus to clubkind.

8:52 AM

Sick...

8:53 AM

You idly lick the lollipop. Sweet!

You move on to the next chest. LIGHT.

8:53 AM

Its an orange chest with the sun on the front of it.

You open the chest and your face is melted by a giant beam of light. GAME OVER!

1

The thought crosses your mind. How could it do that??

I dunno.

8:54 AM

It would be funny!

You open it. Inside are two needles colored like the hammer from earlier, a large, blue, scimitar-esque sword, and an eyepatch.

oh oh can i have this sword please

((pause gotta go to honors geometry

Flint Turing

Slav: Shudder at the thought of taking Katie's burial shovel.

Why would you even consider that

Slav: I dunno. Might be powerful.

No.

9:11 AM

Slav is too busy trying to ignore a hole in his side to do that.

Jared Jackson

...There's also some potion bottles of some strange colorful liquids. Must be POTIONS.

Todd looks around curiously for an ICE chest... is there one? Probably not.

Alain opens the HEART chest.

Marigold doesn't eye the SPACE chest, but seems very interested in the LIFE chest.

Todd Sablet

Alain Meirhart

Alain opens the HEART chest.

Inside are a set of ACTION CLAWS, a KATANA, and a set of broken anime shades with a red dot in the center.

((first off the reason I only chose the cardinal 12 because duh but also 3*4 = 12

Alain puts on the shades, and wields the KATANA! He cannot wield the claws. His boyfriend likely can, though.

10:06 AM

hehehehe. hey look!!! i'm like one of those mango japanese characters!!

Alain swings the sword around playfully. He keeps a safe distance from everyone though.

You let out a painful wheezing laughter.

Marigold laughs her ass off with Jared.

You open the VOID CHEST and are immediately met with a near infinite supply of PERFECTLY GENERIC OBJECTS. Nested within is a LARGE MECHANICAL BOW, a LASER RIFLE, and a DEAD MATRIORB.

You grab the dead matriorb.

Todd is still looking around for an ICE chest.

Man is there just no Ice chest here this is bs

soph: Hm. That looks like it could be useful for later…

10:38 AM

((also if you guys wanna choose what's in the remaining chests go ahead. I think I gave a good baseline as to what would be found in them.

I didn’t even get anything but the stuff in the light chest!!

(( we did time, space, breath, blood, light, void, rage, hope, and heart so far (edited)

(( we did time, space, breath, blood, light, void, rage, hope, and heart so far (edited)

A 3x1dent is retrieved. A speardent, if you will.

((heart probably has different objects depending on who opens it.

Sophia goes up to the Heart Chest and opens it.

Inside lies a blue cat hat with holes in the top, a FANCY SANTA, and- OH DEAR GOD THATS A SEVERED HEAD.

// wait so why did alain get nepeta and dirks items?

The head of a boy with spiky blonde hair and unnaturally orange eyes.

// ooh. oh wait it's because he's a true heart player

10:46 AM

// okay nvm i see, you beautiful bastard

((gehehe

Sophia as seen so many dead bodies that she is unphased. Totally.

10:46 AM

She immediately closes it back up again.

The hair is messed up slightly, but slicked back. His lips are persed.

the fuck was that

Maybe I shouldn’t open chests

((yes that was dirk's head without the shades.

//They take the head to Thea as well and Dirk just becomes canon

Oh dude let me get that head

((I mean hal is canon why not

@Todd Sablet (@SPOOKY CROW) - jump that was horrible

Todd waits behind Sophia to open it next.

Sophia moves out of the way.

We forming lines? Yell heah.

10:48 AM

You stand behind Todd.

Slav opens the TIME chest for the third time.

She goes up to the Void box and reaches for the Bow and the Rifle.

no we aren't jared were seeing if the head was a fluke or not

Well, you stand a little bit away from him. You don't want to get close to that guy.

10:49 AM

He eeeeeeerily looks back at Jared....

Sophia Montoya

She goes up to the Void box and reaches for the Bow and the Rifle.

Someone already took them.

…

Slavko I. Ranovic

Slav opens the TIME chest for the third time.

Inside lies a snapped sword, a long-sleeved shirt with red sleeves emblazoned with a record, and a whip.

wow none of these are useful to me

Alain eyes the sword... oooooh...

She moves to the Hope and Blood boxes.

He closes the chest.

The time chest will not restock until its empty.

Alain floats over to the chest and opens it. Seems like this one's a sword hotspot.

Same objects.

He captchalogues all of the items except for the whip, and tosses said whip to... is Cece here?

Give it to me. I can give it to Cece later.

You look at the time chest.

what's the deal with this one

Alain looks around curiously, before looking at Sophia.

oh! okay. :]

He tosses it over, wrapped around itself.

thanks

The lid slides on by itsself.

> He eeeeeeerily looks back at Jared....

@Todd Sablet (@SPOOKY CROW) - jump Stop staring, bro. I get you're into me and all but it's creepy...

idk! but it has a lot of cool swords... >:D i can give the time themed stuff to apollo too!

The time chest has restocked.

You joke to make yourself less uncomfortable. That motherfucker is creepy.

Alain opens it again. Mystery box number four!

Sophia rummages the Hope and Blood boxes and takes the sickles, rocket boots, and the crosshairs.

Stop staring, bro. I get you're into me and all but it's creepy...

@Jared Jackson (@DreamilyDrifting) - jump

10:54 AM

He breaths heavily, creepily. His breath is cold as fuck.

You make a comically stupid frown.

10:55 AM

B, bro...

10:55 AM

Ha ha,, f, (fuck,,)

Fear No Anvil, two red needles, and the SNOOP DOGG SNOW CONE MACHETE.

10:55 AM

The SDSCM is in a yellow card due to its size.

Alain props his legs up in a stance and wields the SNOOP DOGG SNOW CONE MACHETE out of its card!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Todd turns his gaze and looks towards the sword with immense cold respect.

Oh my god that is big

woah what the fuck

THATS WHAT SHE SAID

YEEEAAAAH

Give me the needles im building a collection

what's the hammer lemme see

You skip away from Todd, trying your hardest to ignore him.

10:57 AM

HAHA.

Out of curiosity... Marigold approaches the SPACE chest, and opens it again.

Alain gives SOPHIA the NEEDLES, and FLINT the HAMMER.

Slav puts his hand on Jared's shoulder.

You grab FEAR NO ANVIL.

dude it fucking ticks this is awesome. sad I can't wield it.

You take a deep breath.

In reaction to FLINT holding FEAR NO ANVIL, the BREATH CHEST lets out a short gust of wind. Weird.

I'm gonna be real with you. I'm THIS close to pissing myself.

Jump in.

Marigold puts a foot inside... can she really fit?

11:01 AM

Oh. Haha. Hahaha. SPACE chest. Chest full of space. You get it.

(edited)

Its like a separate room.

11:03 AM

Inside are several rifles, a few mannequins with dressed on, and.. a dog.

She looks back at the group, shrugs, and drops in.

// OH FUCK

A large white dog. It appears to be asleep.

(aaawh... hi there buddy!...)

Marigold crouches down to the dog, and gently puts a hand on its back...

> Sophia walks up to the last unopened chest of MIND, and opens it.

@Sophia Montoya (@hades) - jump > Sophia finds… a bunch of dragon plushies, some kind of cane sword thing, and a scale with a scratched coin and a teal-stained blindfold on it.

The cane sword drips with cobalt blood.

Oh, and some kind of red jetpack with wings! Neat.

11:09 AM

Sophia takes the cane sword, coin, blindfold, and jetpack.

(Massive foreshadowing with the blindfold. This girl will NOT have eyes once im done with her

Marigold Abella

(aaawh... hi there buddy!...)

Marigold crouches down to the dog, and gently puts a hand on its back...

The dog has no face.

11:34 AM

It looks up at MARIGOLD.

11:35 AM

It studies her for a moment, then lays it's head back down.

11:35 AM

Another WITCH, it thinks to itsself. BECQUEREL is unbothered.

OI MARY WHATS DOWN THERE.

The dog jumped, turning its head to face FLINT. The end of its tail wagged for a second, then stopped. It has a small sense of familiarity.

11:43 AM

(jade and flint have a similar silhouette must I add

11:44 AM

( plus, human combined with first guardian that happens to be a space player.

Ah!! it's... a dog!!!! I think??

11:44 AM

Marigold attempts to pet the dog.

> where's its face.

Becquerel is unbothered by the attention.

...Hey, buddy, do you wanna follow us outta here? where's your owner?...

BECQUEREL huffed in response, and stood up. He's huge.

dear god its bigger than jared's dog

> Becquerel: Ignore new people. Teleport wildly around the world in an effort to locate Jade.

You slide down the wall inside.

What the hell??

Marigold gives a little "sheesh," and pats the dog's side affectionately. ... Wait, it does associate with space, since it's in here... Marigold breathes, and swaps clothes with her modus. She dons the WITCH OF SPACE garb.

You looked MARIGOLD up and down. You sniff at her. Not the same, but similar.

11:57 AM

You opened your mouth. Staticy, but audible words came out. You know the other one can hear you better.

You aren't her. She's gone though.

.. who's "she"

An old friend.

You stopped talking for now. You're a dog, not a human.

BECQUEREL has joined the party!

12:00 PM

FLINT got achievement: GOOD DOG, BEST FRIEND.

12:01 PM

I like the look of the dresses, but im more of a tux guy

Flint: Maybe take the whole chest with you?

// NOOOOOO

You walked over to FLINT, sniffing him. Definitely familiar, but he smells more like blood than anything.

He smells like weed and the inside of an Applebee's.

((flint making excuses to wear a dress:

1

...That's a dress

12:38 PM

Honestly, it's gross you'd even consider wearing it.

12:38 PM

...It would look SO much better on me

Flint: Try another dress. Just for fun.

""""""""""""""leg ornament""""""""""""""

(edited)

Dude you look really good in that.

Flint: Get more sexy

im keeping this I like it

Like... TOO good...

trouble dressed in black

(( congrats on the cool gender, flint

You zap outside of the room, sitting directly outside of the chest. Like a good boy.

GAH! Why does this dog have no face

You gave SOPHIA The Look, but you can't express anything with eyes, so you just slowly turn your head in her direction.

((in an english class christmas party and they're mixing cocoa mix, apple juice, seltzer, canada dry, sprite, and koolaid

You grab at another vague gun shape. You grabbed the BLUNDERBUSS OF ZILLYWIGH.

1:07 PM

You raise your hand through the mouth of the chest, holding the BLUNDERBUSS.

1:33 PM

the voice you hear, it was familiar. It felt like home

1:34 PM

with all your thoughts, all the trials and tribulations you've gone through. The pair of scissors makes you think you are cutting down a wall of anguish

1:34 PM

you stop looking into the chest, as you walk back to flint and sit down

.legna ,llew tser

You hop up out of the chest.

JARED GET OUT IM ABOUT TO CAPTCHALOGUE THE CHEST

TYLER: You hold up your pinky like this.

> Katie mimics him.

TYLER: And then you lock pinkies,

TYLER: Like this.
KATIE: what--
KATIE: ahem.
KATIE: what next?
TYLER: Then you promise whatever. Like uhh...
(MRS. THOMPSON): (Katie, come out here right now.)
KATIE: . . .

TYLER: And I promise to never hit you.

4:55 PM

god i need to be clearer with my wording. CMON

@demeter!! @hades @SPOOKY CROW @DreamilyDrifting when yall r ready

yepyep!

Alain follows in higher spirits. He eyes the HEART chest... but decides to leave it.

Todd follows, disappointed there wasn't an ICE one.

Marigold walks alongside Flint.

Awwh hey, that's a nice dress! :B (edited)

thanks. i think its awesome

4:58 PM

its not entirely a dress too its like a half-n-half thing going on

You pull off that there... "femme, boy?" look Alain's so fond of well!

SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUTUPSHUTU

DON'T SAY THAT

4:58 PM

GOOD GOD

SNNRRRKKK

4:59 PM

IM SORRY??

What? does it not just mean feminine man? :o I thought it was like his furries thang!

Alain hides his face in his hands with embarrassment.

Todd looks at his brother with second-hand embarrassment.

SORRY- its sort of a gay thing. like, femboys are basically like. sort of a combination of crossdressing and being a feminine man. still a guy, but trying to look as feminine as possible. if i were looking for that look id pair this with thigh highs and booty shorts

Stop Saying Femboy

and shave my legs. which is something i really don't want to do-

5:01 PM

snrk sorry.

Ooooh... so wait, it's like dressin' up all purrdy in drag?

WOW would you look at that were getting close to the exit and so we should shut up and move on from this topic I think

You've realized your mistake.

Oh. yeah sorry.

The light is blinding. Painful. It sears everyone's retinas- And then they can see again.

5:03 PM

They're now in a hospital-like area. White walls, and puke-green floor tiles.

DRAG IS A WAY BETTER TERM FOR IT

5:04 PM

WHY CAN'T THEY USE THE TERM DRAG QUEEN INSTEAD OF REPURPOSING A TRANSPHOBIC SLUR

Bulletin boards line the walls, all with memos about projects and upcoming events in the "office."

Slav don't caare about Todd

(thog dont caare

5:04 PM

Flint suddenly feels super uncomfortable.

>

Todd looks intensely uncomfortable.

AH wait that's a slur????

(wait what)

yeah. it used to be and it still is

just- move on from the topic. we learned from the mistake.

Shoot--sorry partner. :[

Marigold pats Slav on the back.

Yeah. Anyways... movin' onta somethin' new... wwwhere in samhell are we?

looks like some kind of hospital? i haven't been to one of these in years.

You're oddly terse and kind of angry sounding.

5:07 PM

You grabbed a paper off of one of the countless bulletin boards. Most of it is jumbled english with greek lettering mixed in.

5:07 PM

Like it's another language.

5:07 PM

You've only just now noticed your renewed depth perception due to the EIGHTFOLD VISION EYEPATCH.

5:07 PM

You don't say anything though.

Marigold looks over Flint's shoulder.

Hey, I can read this! at least, summa this. I dun studied foreign language with my ma'.

take a crack at it then.

It's a lab report.

Marigold takes the sheet and reads it over...--

"October 27th It's Gamma's birthday. It was given an instrument to enrich it's coordination. It takes to music very quickly, able to play music off of tablature just by skimming through it. Sheet music is not the same, obvious struggle being shown to read it. We are not sure if it's the Skaian Gene or if it's just a natural affinity."

(edited)

Alain listens intently.

Todd does not give a shit.

Suddenly, the sound of a nylon-stringed guitar swells through the hallway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpthIfIlrc4

Rob Scallon

Summer - Rob Scallon

5:13 PM

The source is hard to pin.

Marigold lifts her head, and looks around.

Alain doesn't like this...

5:16 PM

that is an oddly hyped guitar

????

wait we talking about instruments now?

5:44 PM

you've been.. spacing out

@ectoMycologist @SPOOKY CROW

...

5:45 PM

You're getting that "seeing stuff you shouldn't be seeing" feeling again.

If so uh... What instruments do you guys play?

He gesters towards the couchlocked gang

mmm... i don't really play music anymore... but i loved the xylophone. :] apollo was huge on the bass.

strings over 'ere!

Drums

5:57 PM

I uh

5:57 PM

5:57 PM

I play the ocarina

...isn't zelda the protagonist?? link is the prince she has t-nevermind

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtgHZaq0EGs

DrSuperMarioMan6464

Zelda Original Soundtrack - Song of Storms

Alain smiles.

Todd doesn't really pay much attention.

Mary looks around for more papers... (@ectoMycologist)

I usually... Play when I'm stressed

6:01 PM

it calms me a lot, it was a gift from my grandpa, well, you, Alain.

6:01 PM

you said the tunes fit my mood perfectly, as we took walks in the forest together

6:02 PM

...

6:02 PM

I really miss my grandpa. But at least I have you

6:02 PM

it warms my heart, thank you for just, being here Alain.

( @SPOOKY CROW when you can hehe

Alain smiles... as he walks up, and then hugs Isaac snugly.

...thank you for being here. and being yourself. i'd love to hear you play more on the boatride back to the meteor. :]

yeah.. I'll do that for you

6:27 PM

you hug Alain

but Alain didn't feel one hug. He felt another. One more miserable and cold

6:27 PM

it was almost like something terrifying hugged Alain

... Alain takes a deep breath...

i know you're in here, with him. ... you are him. but you aren't. it's scary.

something stares at Alain

6:29 PM

everything around him goes dark, as it opens it's eyes

6:29 PM

Alain stands in the darkness, facing the figure.

hello.

uoy knaht

6:30 PM

...yes.

It takes him, a bit, but he can understand it. Not from its voice but from its own will to speak.

6:36 PM

it bows down, as it disappears. Alain is now back in the temple

oh my god are we done sitting here and hugging each other now

yeah, haha..

...

He lets go of Isaac, and smiles.

yeah. :] let's go

you stand up

6:37 PM

I hope we find an exit soon lol

6:37 PM

gonna hiss at the sun like a vampire if I stay here any longer

HEHEHE yeah. we've been in here a while

Isaac stands by Sophia.

hey! it's been a bit.

While that goes on, Todd floats towards Isaac. He hovers a foot above the Prince.

6:39 PM

Hey

oh, hey Todd

HEHEHE yeah. we've been in here a while > Isaac stands by Sophia. hey! it's been a bit.

@Alain Meirhart (@SPOOKY CROW) - jump A bit? It's barely been a day. I think.

you go to high five todd, but put your arm down. You put up the frozen arm holding the mantra

6:40 PM

you put up your actually good arm instead

Hi. Sorry its been a while since Ive talked outside of my head These voices are fucking crazy sometimes

He delivers the high-five. His hand is even colder than Isaac's.

oh!! snap. sorry, it's felt way longer. :P it's felt like... a few weeks HEHE

Hi. Sorry its been a while since Ive talked outside of my head These voices are fucking crazy sometimes > He delivers the high-five. His hand is even colder than Isaac's.

@Todd Sablet (@SPOOKY CROW) - jump no problem

oh!! snap. sorry, it's felt way longer. :P it's felt like... a few weeks HEHE

@Alain Meirhart (@SPOOKY CROW) - jump I mean, I am happy we are getting this island over and done with in a fast pace.

I got these two items uh, no three now

6:42 PM

I got a frost orb, frost mantra, and a pair of scissors with markings on it

Todd listens to the voices for a second for what to say.

> Todd: Deck his fucking nose > Todd: Say a slur > Todd: Breakdance > Todd: Do a flip > Todd: Kill everyone > Todd: Say a slur

6:42 PM

Thats pretty neat

Todd: Say a slur NOW

> Todd: Screech like an eagle and piss on the floor.

((Todd proceeds to call Isaac an Asian slur

I mean, I am happy we are getting this island over and done with in a fast pace.

@Sophia Montoya (@hades) - jump

Alain snickers.

yeah!! it's been surprising :o a lot has happened that's been really crazy just in the span of a day

Todd is holding back the biggest cringe of his life.

Mhm.

I feel like I need to alchemize these three things with something

Alain Meirhart

I mean, I am happy we are getting this island over and done with in a fast pace.

@Sophia Montoya (@hades) - jump

Alain snickers.

yeah!! it's been surprising :o a lot has happened that's been really crazy just in the span of a day

// it's been two days hasn't it

This island is very important.

two problems though! I uh. Can't alchemize there's nothing to use.

6:44 PM

and uh. Idk what to alchemize it with

Im not really sure. It seems kind of fate driven so just go with your gut. Theres like a 50% chance this is a doomed timeline if it doesnt turn out right so

yeah!! but god it's all really tiring and kinda confusing...

demeter!!

// it's been two days hasn't it

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

// ENEMY SPOTTED

SPOOKY CROW

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

//

do you guys not have any portable alchemiter stuff

yeah!! but god it's all really tiring and kinda confusing...

@Alain Meirhart (@SPOOKY CROW) - jump It's not that confusing. Speaking of which, have you seen a guy named Maud around?

Nope. Apollo usually did but hes not here so

uuumm... i don't think so!

where is Apollo anyhow

Hm...

Assuming were still in the temple probably outside

6:47 PM

Weird fucking spot for a hospital though.

huh. Alright

6:48 PM

hopefully we get out of here fast

Uh huh

6:49 PM

Wait. Marigold cant you teleport

I've been tryin'!! It won't lemme get us outta 'ere.

that's joyful

You're just standing here silently. Quite uncomfortable.

Marigold glances over at Jared. She's been standing around too, so...

Howdy!

She approaches him.

Howdy.

WAS AT A CHOIR PERFORMANCE

As they went down the hallway, there's.. "people." They're faceless doctors, with only a few features that distinct them.

8:01 PM

Glasses, different hair, scars, and even tattoos.

8:01 PM

They're all different in one way or another.

8:04 PM

The doors are marked with strange symbols. Further down the hall, they become more legible, but 3 towards the middle stand out the most.

8:05 PM

A text-to-speech voice rattles off over the intercom. "Attempt Γ was a success. We are proud of it. It is a step forward in this operation." "It exhibits incredible intelligence, above-average strength, and an affinity for music." "It's telekinetic abilities are far beyond what we expected."

The eyes are now paired with a beaming grin.

5:09 PM

Then it hit you.

The room is padded. A stack of foam blocks sits at the edge of an aluminum bed. An empty guitar case lies in the center of the room. Crayon-marred papers are scattered about the floor.

5:11 PM

Some of the pads on the wall are slashed.

5:11 PM

There's a mirror covering most of one of the walls.

5:19 PM

you step forward, and activate something

something has opened in the temple

Suddenly, a muffled scream is heard inside the room. It sounds like a child crying. It gets less muffled as the words "DON'T TOUCH ME" ring out in a shrill, scared voice.

h-hWHATTHEFUCK

Scissors, Scalpels, and everything else in the room start spinning wildly. Red and green fire spiral inside as well.

5:20 PM

Flint is at the center of the storm.

?!?!?

You create a weak barrier around you. Several of the sharp objects get stuck in the hardlight material.

A short figure stood atop the bed. It was black, and nearly formless.

5:24 PM

It's eyes had the same red hue from earlier.

(( IT'S HIM. SANS UNDERFELL

The storm stopped. Flint's barrier unforms.

5:25 PM

Red lights flash in the room.

You scramble out.

The black mass screams. "DON'T LEAVE ME, PLEASE."

You sit outside the door, knees to your chest, hands on your ears.

5:26 PM

Deep breaths.

It contorts into a starry cloud with a demented, crying face in the center.

You scramble out of the room.

8:33 PM

you walk away

You tremble in the fetal position, on the floor.

A strange crackling, popping noise can be heard emanating from Jared. If you looked closely, you could see little zaps of electricity generating from where his body nears the ground...

11:44 PM

The weight of the situation begins to weigh on everyone.

You're fine... You're fine... You're fine...

11:44 PM

You're fine, and they're home, and they love you.

11:45 PM

You're fine, and they're here for you, and they love you.

You're fine, and they're here to comfort you when you cry. They're here, and they haven't left.

They're not on a business trip.

They're here, holding you, while you cry.

But nobody's there. And you're crying alone.

You woke up.

Sophia pulls out her sword.

You prop yourself up with your hands, shaking on your knees.

The energy cracks and arcs further and further away from Jared's body. This is rather dangerous.

It doesn't hurt that much, though.

Hey i didn’t even say how much it hurt yet

Sophia feels the weight of the situation. She's beginning to feel a bit worse...

Asshole!!

Eyeroll.

you're not writhing in pain are you (edited)

You slowly prop yourself up on the wall, trying to stand.

You go to help Jared stand up. This clearly isn't as bad as you originally thought. .. Or is it?

The energy does more emotional damage than it does physical.

You let go of Jared.

Flint: Think about your dead sister.

You sort of. stumbled to the ground.

Flint: Think about being taken away from your family. Your stolen childhood.

You saw her head. In a box. Roll out in front of you. You didn't even get to say goodbye. You didn't even get to help her. You didn't get to experience the joys of being normal. You were part of a project and was never meant to be more.

1:13 PM

You're a byproduct of a selfish desire to make god.

You curled up in the all too familiar pose.

Bits and pieces of various objects stick out of the walls.

Gnarly...

Massive VHS tapes, chairs, tables, shards of jade, clipboards, pens...

i'll say.

The hallway literally twists, seeming to defy any form of structural integrity.

4:12 PM

Nah man... It's all good!

4:14 PM

Let's just all go down one path at a time I guess!

4:15 PM

For the togetherness and like...

4:15 PM

You lead the way down the path on the left.

It closes up as he enters.

Yeah I don’t trust him.

4:16 PM

Sophia goes down the Right path.

It closes up as she enters.

DreamilyDrifting started a thread. 12/19/2022 4:18 PM

4:22 PM

4:26 PM

>

5:34 PM

5:34 PM

Both of them just kinda. Closed up.

demeter!! started a thread. 12/19/2022 5:48 PM

Does Flint turn around?

fuck this. im going back-

5:50 PM

You turned.

The Path has changed.

5:54 PM

wuh oh

Shadows are cast on the wall.

>

You began trekking foreward.

??? What's that.. guitar playing???

6:36 PM

It's faint and echoes down the hallway.

6:36 PM

@demeter!! OI!!

The shadows on the wall grow bigger as Flint nears the end of the hall.

Was that it?

( > me knowing its not it:

The hallway twists. No longer is it Euclidean, but arcing downward.

oh dear lord

The guitar playing grows louder and louder. As it resonates in Flint's mind, he feels the state of euphoria from before begin to fade.

6:38 PM

The weight of the situation dawns on him.

You blink.

6:38 PM

OH

6:38 PM

OH GOD WHAT

6:39 PM

How have you been so calm about this??? THIS IS SOME WACKED OUT SHIT

6:39 PM

You still continue down the hallway.

6:46 PM

The vibes you get from this hallway are horrible.

6:46 PM

Dread. Pure, unfiltered DREAD.

That funny feeling in your stomache. That feeling of your heart dropping into your stomache.

6:56 PM

That's what you feel, but multiplied by a number impossible to count to.

6:57 PM

A number not even you can comprehend.

The playing only gets louder.

6:58 PM

The dread is AMPED UP.

You throw up off the side of the path.

DreamilyDrifting

The weight of the situation dawns on him.

>THE WAIT OF THE WORLD

@demeter!! come ON!!! lets DO THIS!!!

7:30 PM

oh wait sophia has to get there first

7:30 PM

nevermind!

The hallway drops downward.

7:30 PM

Flint falls.

CRYIGN

You hit the bottom

((and then my head hit the wall... BOUM

No he does not.

Flint Turing

You hit the bottom

Why are you hitting yourself

It is an infinite fall.

Well. This is it.

There's nothing more bottomless than the bottomless pit!

7:40 PM

Which, as you can see here, is bottomless.

... Wait. It's just a loop.

7:41 PM

There's a doorknob on the wall.

??

7:42 PM

So you're just falling in a loop, watching this doorknob continue to escape you??

this is jusr like the stanley parable

Grab the doorknob.

You grab the doorknob, hanging off of it.

7:43 PM

There's no floor under you.

The door swings open. Does Flint crawl through?

You do.

@demeter!! where does he GO!!

((he enters greed, duh. Get ready for pyramids dude.

There is a small chair, a CRT TV, and one VHS tape.

Rhys ｡.ﾟ+

((he enters greed, duh. Get ready for pyramids dude.

((HORRID

Above the chair, TV, and tape is a lightbulb lighting an otherwise completely dark and empty space.

> this feels familiar.

You crawl all the way through, your feet touching the floor.

The door swings shut.

You jump at the sound.

8:12 PM

chRIST-

8:12 PM

You go and sit down in the chair.

demeter!!

Above the chair, TV, and tape is a lightbulb lighting an otherwise completely dark and empty space.

gets in the way of typing,,

You got up from your seat, sitting the tape down, going to find walls.

7:26 AM

The room stretches infinitely and indefinitely.

7:27 AM

A piece of paper is on the floor though, sort of rolled up like a scroll.

7:27 AM

You grab it and bring it to the light. The effect it has on you is odd. In the light, when you look at it, your vision goes blurry.

huh

7:28 AM

whuh

7:28 AM

i literally just woke up...

(ITS AN INSIDE JOKE GIMME A SECOND)

NAURRRR

You hold it up to the light andOH JESUS FUCKING CHRIST_

7:28 AM

Jared'll get a kick out of it.

Does he put the tape in?

After not being able to find a label, you put the tape in, and sit back down.

Flint Turing

You hold it up to the light andOH JESUS FUCKING CHRIST_

WAIT THIS ISNT EVEN THE FINAL IMAGE

// this is actually perfect btw

THIS IS))

The tape plays.

(edited)

(( 2 hours of mutilating a jpg

..

A woman with black hair walks through the streets of an unfamiliar city.

7:31 AM

Her parents walk beside her, talking kindly about how they'll help her pay for her apartment.

7:31 AM

The scene suddenly ends, cutting to the woman cutting them apart.

You hold your mouth. You feel like you're gonna vomit. Again.

(edited)

7:32 AM

jEEZUS-

7:32 AM

That's a jumpscare and a half.

She inserts a scalpel into their flesh, carving squares in their chests. She's careful to tie her hair back, to wear gloves, to not leave any evidence whatsoever.

7:33 AM

She takes out their hearts and stuffs them in the mouths of their corpses.

You are absolutely disgusted.

Satisfied with a job well done, she packs up her tools and gets ready for the flight home.

7:34 AM

The scene switches again. The woman is wearing a labcoat now, being asked by an unseen voice to bring specimens to the lab.

7:34 AM

The scene cuts again, and she is eating a still-living human with nothing but her teeth and hands.

7:35 AM

There is a child nearby. Sitting, surrounded by corpses.

This is some creepypasta analog horror type shit.

The child looks familiar. Similar to how Delta looked like a younger Thea, but not completely, the child looks like a younger Delta, though not quite the same.

Your eyebrows furrow as you studied the face of this new child brought into the equation.

The woman devouring the body gets up, walking over to the child and crouching down next to them.

7:37 AM

// ok i gotta go hold on

demeter!!

She inserts a scalpel into their flesh, carving squares in their chests. She's careful to tie her hair back, to wear gloves, to not leave any evidence whatsoever.

// damn she FREAKY FREAKY

@demeter!! you back yet ))

hades

// damn she FREAKY FREAKY

maud: god I wish that was me

ALOE

(( ITS NOT EVEN THEA!!

// I'M GONNA HAVE TO ASK YOU TO LEAVE THE PREMISES

// erm incantation is reserved for a select few

// >not scientists apparently

demeter!!

The woman devouring the body gets up, walking over to the child and crouching down next to them.

"Hi."

9:06 AM

The child shifts uncomfortably, holding a teddy bear.

(edited)

9:06 AM

The woman looks down on them in disgust.

9:06 AM

"Repeat after me, child."

kills and eats 2 people in front of this child looks at child "hi"

< ok. Names remain unspoken. > < named remain unspoken. You will think the same way as I. > < you wi-- i will think the dame way as you. Obey me and I will give you power. > < obey you and you will gibe me power. Coeus is your new name. > < coeus id my new name.

9:08 AM

The woman smiles.

9:08 AM

The scene shifts.

9:09 AM

The clock on the wall ticks quickly.

did she fucking kidnap thea

We are shown a small child, entirely different from any of the others shown thus far, playing in a backyard with a tall woman with white hair.

9:10 AM

It's a heartwarming moment.

??

drastic change of tone.

You cross one of your legs over the other.

The next is the same child, now older, fighting alone with his father, the woman from the previous scene clearly missing. A chair at the table is empty.

9:11 AM

The child is sent to a school to train his strength.

9:11 AM

One day, they pick mentors. He picks an aviator that was kind to him despite how he reacted to the assignment.

9:11 AM

The child learns several languages.

9:12 AM

In-between scenes, repeatedly, the scene flashes to a closed door.

// HES IN SLAVS PATH

(REAL

The door gets closer every time.

(( NO FUCKING WAY ITS SLAV

9:12 AM

(( THERE IS NO FUCKING WAY

As the child, now a teenager, goes home for the summer, a knife tucked into his belt, a ticking sound is heard, as though a clock is going by.

(( especially because i know who the path BELONGS TO.

1

The door swings open.

(( but slav does have something to do with them so waddaydo

A corpse lays on the ground. The child's father.

jeezus-

9:13 AM

thats. what. 7th corpse

He sees it clearly in his mind. The corpse of his father.

9:14 AM

He takes the knife out of his belt as the ticking sound grows ever louder.

9:14 AM

He knocks on the door.

(edited)

9:15 AM

The ticking stops. The TV turns off.

9:15 AM

But the knocking sound continues.

9:15 AM

It's behind Flint.

9:15 AM

Slow turnaround.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Alright fuck this dress, you unequip the BELL of the dress, leaving the tuxedo top.

9:15 AM

You might have to run.

((HE HAS SWEATS ON UNDERNEATH IT

9:16 AM

(( DOOF

9:16 AM

DON'T OPEN THE DOOR

OPEN THE DOOR

9:16 AM

DON'T OPEN THE DOOR

OPEN THE DOOR

9:16 AM

DON'T OPEN THE DOOR

OPEN THE DOOR

You equip the LAST ASSAILENT in your off-hand, reaching carefully for the door.

Your name is door. Open yourself.

You twist the doorknob.

// NO NO NOT LIKE THIS

9:17 AM

Flint gently opens the door.

9:17 AM

"I HAVE HANDS, BUT NO ARMS."

((sayori is hanging on the other side-

9:18 AM

(( OH MY GOD

"I HAVE A FACE, BUT NO EYES." (edited)

9:18 AM

There is nothing through the door but a veiled face.

9:18 AM

"WHAT AM I?"

(what the fuck

You thought for a moment.

9:19 AM

a clock.

//Rayman after ocular surgery

Hands push up the veil.

((crow bursts through the door and starts unloading a revolver into flints skull

A face with a giant mouth and no eyes.

9:19 AM

"I AM THEA ESTHER COEUS."

9:19 AM

"AND THIS,"

9:20 AM

A body is thrown at Flint, knocking him across the room.

9:20 AM

"IS A CLOCK."

9:20 AM

// ok ill be back

WHAT

// time to go into physics

((amazing

// byeeeee

((GOD THE CLIFFHANGER THOUGH

10:18 AM

(( AUGHH its like an hour later and im still on the edge of my seat

@demeter!! we good to continue btw

You hit the wall in the back, somehow. You stood up.

@demeter!! rAAAGH

There is no wall. He hits the ground.

(edited)

Oh Right. No walls.

It is wet, like flesh on the inside of a body.

12:15 PM

What is also like flesh is the body on top of him.

You push the body off of you.

Slav gets up slowly. He pushes himself up with one arm.

12:16 PM

He can't use the other one too well, considering it's not very attached to his body.

12:16 PM

"TICK. TOCK."

12:17 PM

The flesh of the woman with the veil is decaying. Barely even human. A skull. Just teeth.

SLAV DUDE ARE YOU OK

does it LOOK like

12:18 PM

ghk

12:18 PM

He clutches his bleeding stump.

Flint: SEAL HIS WOUND!

You hastily equip the GREEN SUN STREETSWEEPER.

.. do you want a robotic arm later by the way because I have a temporary fix for that you might not like.

dude how the fuck would a robot arm work

12:19 PM

you'd need a surgeon and shit

12:19 PM

to connect all my nerves to it

STOP TALKING IDIOTS

You point the rifle at the woman.

fuck it hold still

they spend like thousands of dollars on this shit

"NO."

12:20 PM

She walks forward.

PIECE OF THE GREEN SUN: SEAR. You hold your hand to the stump. it's burning hot.

AAAAAUUUUUUU HEY HEY HEY STOP

You cauterize slav's stump.

He punches Flint in the face.

HOLD ON ASSHOLE

CHRIST CAN I NOT EVEN TRUST YOU

WHERES YOUR ARM

You are both fucking idiots

I KNOW WHAT IM DOING

GONE?? DUDE SHE ATE IT

Hey she's getting pretty close haha

FUCK IT ILL OPEN THE WOUND BACK UP LATER GET BEHIND ME.

HELL NO

You begin unloading firey hot rounds into the unnatural corpse-like woman in front of you.

ok fine

BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM

12:24 PM

The barrage lasts five seconds before the weapon overheats and jams.

12:24 PM

The smoke clears.

12:24 PM

Step. Step. Step.

12:25 PM

The holes in her body close up. She looks less ancient now.

demeter!!

The flesh of the woman with the veil is decaying. Barely even human. A skull. Just teeth.

AYO??

// HOW THE HELL IS SHE HERE

12:26 PM

"I AM THEA ESTHER COEUS."

THEA???

12:30 PM

12:30 PM

The gun reloads itsself as you chamber another round.

"No silly! That's Thea tian Coeus oh FUCK"

(kaboom

It just dawned on you she said "ESTHER."

12:32 PM

(slav am i high or did she say thea esther) (edited)

(yes that's esther)

12:33 PM

(were you not paying attention to the movie at all clearly thea doesn't have a name anymore)

12:33 PM

(and thea is just esther's first name)

(then why does her full name kill p)

12:33 PM

(whatever okay)

12:34 PM

(was the arm you lost your dominant hand because we're about to bury a corpse)

Flimt: Kill thelma easter cormick

flimbo: bitch looking like corpse01.mdl

(no i'm right-handed)

flark: stealing my instaheal flinch: bitch

then lets fucking get her-

12:35 PM

Wait, the floor is made of flesh.

12:35 PM

You break Rule #1 of gun safety and start firing directly into the floor.

Flint is choked by the woman.

GRRK-

Why wasn't he paying attention to the fact that he was being approached rapidly.

FLINT

You, unlike everyone else, do not pay attention for shit.

Slav charges, but is thrown backward.

(edited)

You are kicking at ESTHER's knees.

12:36 PM

let go of me you BITCH

flurt: YOU LOOK LIKE A GRILLED HOT DOG

12:36 PM

flask: LET ME GO

Air stops entering Flint's lungs. Slav keeps trying to help.

(edited)

You pull yourself into the chessboard for a minute. Your body stops breathing for a bit.

12:43 PM

Your eyes roll foreward again. You drop the gun in favor for another one of your KHOPESH, chopping ESTHER's hand from her arm.

(i think the plural of khopesh is khopesh right

12:44 PM

(khopeshes doesnt sound right

The hand grows back and the one on Flint's neck keeps moving, though it's much easier to remove now.

You pry the fingers from your throat and chuck it aside.

12:45 PM

You fall back to find SLAV.

The woman slowly turns toward Slav and Flint.

nice recover after just standing there like an idiot

you get behind her. i'll keep her focused on me.

12:47 PM

when i give the go, strike with me.

nice

12:47 PM

Slav clutches the WRATH OF THE SUN.

12:47 PM

(hope i can still fire with one arm)

try centering it with your leg or something.

(not how it works)

like a bipod- whatever find a way to get behind her

@demeter!! I've got a little bit let's do this

(( and somehow made it to where the proxies dont work

// my school doesn't get personal chromebooks

demeter!!

// my school doesn't get personal chromebooks

// oh damn

You begin firing at ESTHER, attempting to distract her so that SLAV can make his move.

3:00 PM

(GO GO GO)

She keeps looking at Slav.

Oh. she's locked on him.

3:31 PM

You do the obvious and teleport behind her.

She grabs his throat, still looking at Slav.

3:31 PM

Slav fires three times. None so much as make her flinch.

HOW

3:34 PM

You remove her hand again, rinse, repeat.

3:34 PM

jesus christ she's is NOT going down

Flint: Quick, make a witty quip! It'll guarantee victory!

You cannot think of a good quip! "Hands off" is fucking corny and you would ne-

hands off the merchandise

She throws Slav directly at Flint.

You immediately feel the cringe ripple throughout your body-

And the pain!

You teleport to the side.

nice aim

3:38 PM

btich

3:38 PM

bitch, asterisk

Slav hits the ground.

OW

Wait. Why is he still standing in the original place?

3:39 PM

... And also on the ground?

now i think i might be dreaming why is there two of him

what?

(SLAV): hello

3:40 PM

ESTHER?: A FAKE! A FAKE I SPY.

3:40 PM

(SLAV): (oh nooo it's jadis from kill six billion demons whatever shall i dooooo)

Slow, clueless blink.

(SLAV): (three steps forward, ten seconds to midnight)

He says this as Esther takes three steps forward, though slightly before she does.

(SLAV): (contemplation, seven seconds to midnight)

She pauses.

(SLAV): (silence, five seconds to midnight)

She is silent.

(SLAV): (rage, one second to midnight)

She charges.

(SLAV): (Midnight.)

She is frozen in time.

WHAT???

(SLAV): (you have approximately one minute to escape this tunnel.)

3:43 PM

(SLAV): (bye)

UH-

cmon dickhead lets go

HOLD ON WHAT THE FUCK

You put all of your weapons back in your strife specibus, grabbing slav by his remaining arm, and bolting the FUCK out.

(Slav) t-poses and no-clips out.

WHAT????????

ITS TEMPLE SHIT COME ON

3:44 PM

You open the door and walk through, nearly forgetting about the fall loop.

The fall loop is gone. The hall's nature is gone, replaced with nothing but darkness and watchful eyes.

3:45 PM

Flesh squishes under Flint's shoes.

3:46 PM

gross

"YOU KNOW WHYYYYYY I DID IT ALL, TURING?"

3:46 PM

The woman is back. She runs down the hall after Flint.

to make another first gJESUS CHRIST SLAV COME THE HELL ON

He's being dragged duhh

"FOR FUN."

3:49 PM

"NO LONGER SHALL YOU BE STYX, BUT YOU SHALL JOIN TARTARUS."

YOU ARE NOT GONNA GUIDE ME ANYWHERE YOU GRILLED CHICKEN LEG LOOKING MOTHERFUCKER

3:50 PM

You took the quipping advice a bit too far.

The walls are closing in.

3:51 PM

He's halfway there, but the hallway ahead is growing ever smaller.

@ectoMycologist

ASPECT ABSTRATA: REMOVE SPACE: 1d20 (15) Total: 15

SLAV. JUMP WHEN I SAY GO

3:53 PM

GO.

Slav barely manages a jump.

Esther jumps too.

demeter!!

"NO, I AM A PSYCHOPOMP."

>oh shes not her >does this

The space between the 3 and the door is erased, sorta like what OKUYASU does with THE HAND.

4:00 PM

They are teleported much closer to the door.

4:04 PM

FINE. OKAY. WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH ME.

4:04 PM

You turn around, placing SLAV behind you. It's you she wants anyway.

UM NO DON'T STOP

4:05 PM

He pulls Flint down the hall as Esther keeps approaching.

"YOU. WILL. DIE."

Fuck it. You couldn't beat her even if you wanted to, she's invincible.

4:07 PM

It's like she's actually more like half of thea and half of esther.

FLINT WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON WHAT ARE ALL THOSE VOICES

The halls echo with mixed murmurs.

6:26 PM

The door gets ever nearer and the hallway gets ever smaller.

6:26 PM

OH YOU CAN HEAR THEM NOW TOO?

6:26 PM

OKAY WHAT THE FUCK EVER LETS JUST GO

@Flint Turing (@ectoMycologist) - jump WHAT?

You're getting exausted.

As they hurry toward the door, Esther follows close behind.

6:27 PM

The door is so close. Flint reaches it.

You tiredly reach for the doorhandle.

It swings open. The hallway turns sideways.Slav catches onto FLINT'S leg.

6:28 PM

Esther skitters up the floor.

what the FUHUHUUCCKKK

Esther grabs Slav's ankle.

6:29 PM

Does Flint go through the door or save Slav?

You chuck one of the LAST ASSAILANTS at ESTHER.

6:30 PM

She weaves out of the way.

SAVE SLAV.: 1d20 (6) Total: 6

Flint looks at Slav, reaching out his hand. But Slav only has one arm, and his hand is grabbing Flint's leg. Luckily, Flint's hand is reaching down far enough that it'll only take a short switch. Slav won't fall fast enough to not be able to grab Flint's hand. Below, a darkness encroaches, a swirling mass of water. The ground in the room that Flint found the tape was wet, not like flesh, but like a floor filled with water. Like a primordial water. Chaos. Slav looks up at Flint and nods. Flint nods back. He swings himself back to make his hand easier to grab. Slav lets go. He reaches to grab Flint's hand. Oh. He forgot about Esther. When Slav is pulled down by Esther's hand, he falls quickly. It does not give enough time for Flint to react other than a widening of the eyes and a quick gasp. It is only when Slav is already submerged in the waters below that Flint can scream. And it is too late.

// THE TEMPLE IS SINKING??

6:40 PM

You. drop to your knees. Your legs make a small splash as they hit the ground.

..

6:50 PM

What now?

6:50 PM

You're left alone in a hallway with no end, without the person you were trying to keep here.

You sat in silence.

Wow, what a whiner.

7:14 PM

Your friend just died and all you can do is sit there?

7:14 PM

DO something.

What are you supposed to do?

Keep going, space boy.

7:15 PM

Gonna let him die in vain?

Flint Turing

You. drop to your knees. Your legs make a small splash as they hit the ground.

// WAIT WAIT WAIT HOW DID I NOT SEE THIS

7:16 PM

The narrative has reoriented itself to the Temple Entrance.

6:07 PM

Speaking of Temple Entrances…

6:07 PM

@demeter!!

The Time chest shakes.

6:08 PM

Out bursts Slavko Indra Ranovic, having rebuilt his life.

6:09 PM

// @ectoMycologist @DreamilyDrifting

YEAAAHHH

A tinny voice comes out of Slav’s new arm.

// HOLD ON PAUSE

6:13 PM

// NEZU

// OH

WHAT THE FUUUUCK

He looks at his arm.

SLAV: Catch up with the others.

You're FUCKING BUSYYYYY

// OH

if you hear this recording, i’ve installed a minor ai into your arm, and it actually works in your universe. obviously since your arm is still outside of your grasp, this will help you use it to full efficiency. trust it will not interfere too much with anything outside of actual combat! over and out, and good luck in your own timeline!

8:58 PM

Somehow, you hear a verbal thumbs up.

thhhhanks. i guess.

Oh. The arm is doing the thumbs up. Neat.

Slav walks down the halls of the temple. Now, if his map is correct, Flint should be somewhere around here...

before anyone can think another though, the entire temple, no, the entire island rumbles with a loud blast of power

10:20 PM

something floats around the temple

10:20 PM

it floats down flints path.

From a hallway that Sophia went down, something emerges.

6:11 PM

It leaves the temple.
