Flowers of Heaven: sensitIV

[idolpro]

Something nudges at your ankles.

When you look down, you see you’re being headbutted by… a number of fluffy white, red-eyed rabbits that, unsettlingly, seem to have small human hands for front paws. They're doing their best to herd you toward an arched doorway that has opened in the thick brambles and leads to a winding path beyond.

Once you cross through, a gate closes behind you, and the voices of your fellow idols fade from your ears. It seems as if you’re on your own, now.

❀ ❀ ❀

Here, the brambles that surround your path have bits of torn lace caught in their thorns. Some of the fabric is splattered with what appears to be fresh blood.

It seems that the rabbits are carrying some things for you: a collection of sixteen different flowers, a small lantern of blue flame, and a wreath woven from gorse, Star of Bethlehem flowers, and water lilies.

[Sekhmet is different as she proceeds along. Quiet, sullen, smoldering. She's glaring at everything around her, looking like she could snap at anything around her.]

Seven hells... That was already so many...

Re: DISCUSSION

[bondsofsuffering]

...Give the crown to Persephone or Lucifel. That way we can at least protect two from burning out.

[But... that's hardly much reassurance.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[crystallinelore]

...Yes, either should do.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bondsofsuffering]

[He just reaches up, takes off the crown, and plonks it on Persephone's head instead.

Re: DISCUSSION

Okay so that was a shitty round.

Re: DISCUSSION

[nihilmancy]

Oh, really, you think so?! Shit for brains.

Re: DISCUSSION

[devilmightcare]

[ uhh

stares at her ]

You got a problem with me?

Re: DISCUSSION

[nihilmancy]

Maybe try contributing something useful. If you haven't noticed, we're in danger.

Re: DISCUSSION

[backstory]

That didn't go as well as I would have liked.

[ HE'S SO TROUBLED ]

The flower crown must immediately go to one of those who has already lost one of their flowers at the very least. And if it crosses over with someone else's still, then all the better!

Re: DISCUSSION

[heavenlyvisitor]

-- Give it to Persephone, choose water lily. I'll be fine-

Re: DISCUSSION

[backstory]

But I am worried about you too!

I don't mind if it goes to you or him... both of you are precious to me, but claiming that you are fine right now is clearly a lie! You must also think about yourself!

[you are GETTING HEADPATTED]

Re: DISCUSSION

[bondsofsuffering]

Why sacrifice one of ours when we don't have to? We can choose Mimulus and Wild Rose.

Re: DISCUSSION

[nihilmancy]

I don't need your pity.

[There is something dangerous smoldering in Sekhmet's eyes.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[backstory]

It's not pity! It's about protecting all of you as best the rest of us can!

[please hold, he's trying to pull himself together and think.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

[ sorry were you saying something he seems to be in space ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[crystallinelore]

Lucifel?

[i mean he saw you get wrecked but]

Re: DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

[ paler now, stiff and with a tightly clenched fist ]

. . . There's no choice -

Re: DISCUSSION

[devilmightcare]

.. Hey, Lucy?

Re: DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

[ gritting his teeth tighter, mumbling ]

Father -

Re: DISCUSSION

[forgottenmercy]

Lucifel...? [pulling himself together enough for this]

Re: DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

[ ssshhuts his eyes. ]

Yes.
