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.]

[Moriarty has to take a bit of a breath for a second, given how much he was keeping the bugs off of everyone. Thanks for the coverage!]

[...Well, he can probably explain that later.]
Their tentacled roots protect them, but without them they are otherwise little more than a brainless braggart.
no subject
Understood! Then if that is the case, I can at least take on one of said roots!
no subject
Hey! Do you all really need me for this one? It's just an overgrown weed.

Ugh, fine, geez. Don't overload your pacemaker!
[And with that the younger twin's jumping into the air, taking four swords from each wing as he somersaults towards one of the tentacles with flourish and style.
Well, that or he's just showing off. Maybe it's both.
It's both.]no subject
THANK YOU!
[Before going to distract his own tentacle with his own plans. Don't let him down, boys!]
no subject
A lot less blows than they're forced to endure now.]
Is it just you, or-
Yes, the Nidhogg is stronger than you, now please actually try and help kill it!
Me? Weak? Perish the thought!
[They'll just be squabbling over here, don't mind them.]
