[ If you had paid visit before, you might notice that where you start seems fairly familiar. But since most of you haven't… the first thing you'll notice is red. Dark red all around you. The sky, the ground—everything is red. It's impossible to make out anything among the color. But if you attempt to stare at any particular space for too long, you'll discover it pulses, flows.

And then there is a laugh that you are probably very acquainted with by now, only this time it’s LOUDER, wracking inside your skull. ]

FOOLISH WORMS! THIS IS MY DOMAIN NOW. YOU SHALL ALL PERISH. TORN ASUNDER. NOTHING LEFT.

[ Well then. ]


((Join #eyesontheprize if you can for coordination and easy communication.

Also, I futzed up by not putting up a mingle header. If you show up late and want to talk to Alpha in addition to/instead of the second NPC, let me know. I doubt many people really want to talk to Alpha though... ))

*. . . quieter, almost conversational now*

Don't you remember them? Friends and the people you love leaving for a while . . . doesn't erase the times you shared, at all.

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

[ I remember everyone...

Birdsong gains even more volume. ]

Re: AMETHYST

Didn't it make you happy? To know there were people you could care for. People who can look at you and see someone they want to be with.

People to smile and laugh with. People who it was okay to be a fool and hurt with and know they would still be there for you. Because to them, you were worth it. And to you, they were someone to trust enough to be that vulnerable too.

There's nothing that can really compare to that happiness, is there? Even the pain pales in comparison.

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

[ No, there isn't...

The well starts to brighten slightly with a purplish light...

And that ground gives that familiar lurch. ]

Shut up! None of that matters!

Re: AMETHYST

[antreegonist]

Just because that jerk says it doesn't matter, that doesn't make it true at all! Remember, Night!

Re: AMETHYST

[shednotearsformagic]

Why should you listen to someone who wants to destroy everything anyway? He's pretty biased.

We just want you to be happy, Ryner. To be happy and safe, that's why we're here. Because you're our friend and we want to help you. We won't give up on you, so don't give up on us.

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

[ you won't give up...

The purple light illuminates Lafra trapped under a stone at the bottom on the well. She is also made of purple fire rather than red-gold. It seems the resistance forcing them out of the well has died down as well. ]

Re: AMETHYST

[shednotearsformagic]

We won't. You have pretty stubborn and dedicated friends.

[Still climbing down.]

Re: AMETHYST

[antreegonist]

*just climbing down faster, now; that looks like it hurts*

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

[ When you reach the bottom, without further hassle, Lafra sings out at you.

While Alpha continues to threaten... ]

LEAVE IT ALONE!

Re: AMETHYST

[shednotearsformagic]

[Haha, FUCK YOU ALPHA.]

[Going about moving that rock.]

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

[ Freed, Lafra flies over to them. And it seems there's something around her neck. ]

Re: AMETHYST

[antreegonist]

What's this--?

*having a look*

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

[ It is a crystal key! ]

Re: AMETHYST

[shednotearsformagic]

Another key, it looks like. I got one from Kunzite earlier.

Re: AMETHYST

[antreegonist]

That's great!

*does Lafra look injured in any way, though? also what happened to that bread Kira threw down the well*

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

[ The bread did not make it. 8( Also Lafra seems to be lifting up one leg more than the other, possibly the one that was trapped. 8( ]

Re: AMETHYST

[antreegonist]

...hey, let me have a look at that...

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

[ Lafra hops over... ]

Re: AMETHYST

[antreegonist]

*inspecting the leg, carefully; a patronage with Kiriko is a pretty object lesson in bird anatomy...*

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

IT WON'T DO YOU ANY GOOD. YOU'RE NOT LEAVING.

[ And just like with Mithos, all sound suddenly fades in a single rush of breath so that all that's left are the sounds of Kit, Kunzite, Solstice, Bolin, Eclipse and others sounding very wrong as they fawn over Kira endlessly, denying their feelings for anyone but her. ]

Re: AMETHYST

[shednotearsformagic]

[FZZZZZT]

[She knows those tones, those are familiar tones, why-]

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

[ And then they intensify! ]

Re: AMETHYST

[shednotearsformagic]

[No, no, no, knew this was happening.]

[Doesn't make sense, doesn't make sense because it shouldn't be happening and BECAUSE KIT IS COMPLETELY IMMUNE.]

GET OUT OF MY HEAD!

Re: AMETHYST

[stigmateyes]

[ NOPE! ONLY GETTING WORSE! ]
