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.

This is gonna sound bad, but can I get the crown this time around?

Re: DISCUSSION

[crystallinelore]

It would protect you and Izanagi, would it not? How is that bad?

Re: DISCUSSION

[bondsofsuffering]

[Oh hello he heard his name.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[crystallinelore]

Is that all right with you?

Re: DISCUSSION

[bondsofsuffering]

No complaints here, but...

[Looks at Dante. Looks at Noah. Confused eyebrow arch.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[crystallinelore]

[sssshrugs?]

I have no crossover with anyone else.

Re: DISCUSSION

[devilmightcare]

Well, yeah, I think it's the obvious choice. Just feels weird volunteering myself.

Re: DISCUSSION

[crystallinelore]

'Tis a fair point, though. I see no issue with it.

Re: DISCUSSION

[devilmightcare]

Alright! Sounds good.

What're we burnin' besides that?

Re: DISCUSSION

[bondsofsuffering]

Oats are safe to burn if we're already protecting them.

Re: DISCUSSION

[crystallinelore]

...I do not know that anything safe to burn remains.

Re: DISCUSSION

[forgottenmercy]

[inclines head in agreement, then.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[nihilmancy]

Why you? Am I not worth protecting?

Re: DISCUSSION

[devilmightcare]

It's kinda ... A waste, isn't it?

[ looking her up and down warily ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[nihilmancy]

A waste?!

Re: DISCUSSION

[devilmightcare]

No offense'n all, but --

You're all pretty far gone, aren'tcha?

Re: DISCUSSION

[nihilmancy]

[Her eyes flash in rage, and she snarls. How about getting kicked in the shins, followed by a swift punch to the jaw, Dante?

She knows she's small and not particularly strong, especially compared to Dante, but she's banking on surprise and knocking him off balance.]

Too far gone to do this?!

Re: DISCUSSION

[devilmightcare]

-- hey!

[ for a dead person she's got moves. and Dante's obviously not expecting that level of mobility out of her for some reason.

he's stumbling back but he gets swiped by that punch, bringing his hand up to his face ]

Hold it, hold it! I didn't wanna start any fights!

Re: DISCUSSION

[nihilmancy]

[Trying to elbow him in the ribs and snatch the crown from his head!]

Fuck you, I'm tired of being asked to sacrifice myself!

Re: DISCUSSION

[devilmightcare]

[ he reaches up to try to hold the crown on his head with both hands -- even if that gets him elbowed ]

Oof --

No one's sacrificin' anyone here!

Re: DISCUSSION

[nihilmancy]

I'm always the one left behind! [Is she really though]

[Anyway she's trying to punch his throat this time. She's angry and not going to stop!]

Re: DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

. . . It would be better if someone else were to have it, but if you wish for it, then . . .

Re: DISCUSSION

[devilmightcare]

Why d'you figure that?

1/2

[sancrimony]

For example, if -
