at once short of life, and long of sorrow.

[You are dead.




Well, obviously. You remember how you died. It was...not fun, to say the least. But hey, at least you're off that ship, right?

Except...you don't know exactly where you are now. It seems like a house, but if it is, it's...a work in progress. Most of the rooms are empty, and your steps echo up through the marble columns and down faint mosaics on the tiled floor. The few windows you find have a green light gleaming through them; you can't really see anything beyond the eerie light.

It feels like you're in a temple of some kind. The columns and mosaics seem to indicate it is something like that-it's certainly reminiscent of something out of an ancient culture, perhaps even one you're familiar with. For some reason, though, it's clear someone-or something-lives here. One of the rooms to the south is stuffed with pizza boxes. Another, larger room has a makeshift futon in one of the corners. There are imprints of multiple footsteps all through the dusty floors as you look around, many of them leading to a small alcove to the west. And-

and there's a giant van. Just. hanging out there. Completely out of place with the seemingly ancient decor. And inside, there is the sound of light snoring.



Ok then. You're apparently not alone in death, after all.]

AUGH!

[ Aoi shudders as he arrives, hugging himself as he makes sure he's put together still. That was... a much more painful death than he expected! ]

[Hmmm I wonder who's going to be coming this wee-

...

.........

Goddamnit, no.]


....Aoi?

[SORRY IF...he's not looking so kind or loving right now. He might actually look a little angry beyond the 'what' he's got going on right now.]

Dad.

[ Aoi is a picture perfect depiction of a nervous smile. ]

[There's a moment, as he takes in a deep breath, blowing it out and pinching the bridge of his nose.]

...I did not want you to come down here, you foolish boy.

[...]

Must you take after me so thoroughly?

[Because, well. He assumes it's due to being found out and killed by Zero, or something of that nature, given he's a bit early than the rest of the new arrivals.]

The ship itself killed me.

I was set to be executed anyway, but... I guess it got mad at me.

It said I broke a rule.
hatesdeerstalkers: (...!)

...You killed someone?

[EX...CUSE...?]

...let me explain.

hatesdeerstalkers: (Preposterous)

[personal profile] hatesdeerstalkers 2023-07-16 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
....Then do.

[IT. BETTER BE A GOOD EXPLANATION, TBH.]

[ He explains everything about the time loops and wanting to murder Zack to break it. How it was intended to be the one thing that never happened. ]

So basically, things were fucked for a long time.
hatesdeerstalkers: (mmhmm)

[He takes in the information, mulling over it.

Interesting, certainly. And a testament to his and Hubert's perserverance. Yet...]


...I have to admit, I do find it hard to believe Zack was never once killed.

[LISTEN HE UH. doesn't really think that highly of Zack,]

But I suppose it makes sense why I never remembered such things - if I came here each time, then the 'mes' in each timeline never had a chance to report back to the Throne.

[That's gonna make one heck of a mess when they solve all this - it's going to be like a bunch of reports suddenly stacking up on his mental desk all at once.]

Everyone keeps saying that. It's more due to his abilities than anything else. He's fucking hard to kill.
hatesdeerstalkers: (hm...?)

You mean his Devil Arm power? I suppose I could see that.
