Welcome to Dead

[strangerpeople]

[You Are Dead.


Your last thoughts before the finishing blow may differ as well as if you had felt any pain or not. Let's be real, folks have been extra in the mansion so it's more than likely some crazy way to go. What can you do about that? But if you were thinking that death involves going to a place filled with fire and brimstone or a place filled with fluffy clouds and golden gates...sorry to disappoint.

When you wake up, the first thing you will notice is how cold you feel. Whatever you were wearing before, it will not protect you against the snow and wind. Nothing was taken from you but you cannot help but feel for some reason, it feels like your privacy was violated. But that's small potatoes compared to where you happen to wake up: a hole in the ground. Just a typical average sized human sized hole, no big deal.

Once you get out from your 'comfy' hole, you will see markers by each hole...best not to think about those and focus on finding shelter for now. You might want to be aware of that massive tornado that can be seen from your wake up points. Try NOT to leave by swimming into the water behind said points.

Better hurry.]

[Eddie is no one's friend, legit.]



If I am here...then he has to be too. But if no one saw him...

[alwaysgonnatry]

He? I mean.. we haven't explored every inch of this island yet so maybe who you're talking about could still be here.

[ Oh look the plane is actually in sight now. ]

[15unknowns]

My partner. He was with me before...

[Oh yes, that certainly is a plane. Filled with friendly people possibly!]

[alwaysgonnatry]

Your partner? Wait... Are you one of those meisters you told me about and your partner... is he a weapon?

[ All just guesses, but even for as enthusiastic as she is? There is concern on her face as she said it. ]

Hopefully he's still somewhere around here.

[15unknowns]

...yes. To both of your questions.

[alwaysgonnatry]

Whoah! That's so cool!!

[ What? It totally is in her eyes!

Though after a second she seems to deflate a little, wringing her hands slightly as they walk. She needs to get this out there or she's never gonna be able to live with herself. ]

So... where I come from, Maka. I'm a witch. You're... not gonna kill me, right?

[15unknowns]

Are there good witches in your world? Most of the witches that we know of in this one are evil and cause harm. Have you done anything like that?

[alwaysgonnatry]

Yeah! There's a lot of good ones! I only ever really knew of one bad one but even she turned over a new leaf at the end!

[ Akko then turned slightly so she could look back at Maka a bit better, something almost sad in her eyes that she covered up with a smile. ]

Not intentionally! Anytime someone got hurt it wasn't deliberate. Especially when I was first learning how to do magic, I made a lot of mistakes but I just want to make others happy with it.

[15unknowns]

Your world must be lucky that have people who are kind.

[But then she listens and despite what she knew, had been raised on, had seen...Akko had helped her. That counts for something and she gives a small smile.]



You helped me when you could have let me stay Mad or even killed me...double kill since we are dead. Therefore, that must make you a good person.

[alwaysgonnatry]

You really think so? Sure, there's grumpy and mean people but the nice ones outnumber them... but maybe that's just me.

[ Any worries and fears she has are instantly assuaged hearing that, to which she just grins brightly and laughs softly. ]

I'm glad you think so! [ A soft laugh follows that too. ] It wasn't like I was going to kill you or leave you be. Something told me you weren't always like that... but I admit I was worried when this one guy said you were from that school and implied that you'd kill me just for being a witch s-so I just kinda had to get that out of the way.

[ Then something else occurs to her, them being only a scant twenty or thirty feet from the plane's location by now. ]

At least here's a little better than the creepy mansion with all the spiders in it. I don't know if that's common in the world of the living here but it was really weird, because it had waaay more spiders than most places should have.

[15unknowns]

Mansion? Spiders?

[Think think think.]

Tell me everything you know about that place.

[alwaysgonnatry]

[ Initially Akko had just said it in passing but that is now making her think it had more importance than she thought. ]

It was really old. Didn't even have proper plumbing at all, and what they called a game room had all kind of creepy torture items in it. Seemed really fancy... or it would be if it wasn't for all the cobwebs and the bats that were also there too.

[ She's doing her best to recall everything she can. ]

Had a fancy dining room but we were only allowed to eat once a week, and the two guys in charge were in hoods and never showed their faces. They spoke of 'Our Lady' quite highly, as she was the one they served but we never actually saw her.

[15unknowns]

I think this needs to be discussed with everyone.
