Taisho Roman Revolution

[idolpro]

[ Everything fades to black...and you awaken in an opera house.

You're wearing servant uniforms, and a newspaper informs you that you are currently in %COUNTRYNAME% in the year %CONTEMPORARY%+1. The newspaper is otherwise actually fairly unhelpful, aside from something detailing the results of a recent attempt at revolt in a city in %COUNTRYNAME%: worker’s success at managing a nearby gold mine led to dreams of every man being a king - the revolutionaries may have been successful had it not been for a concurrent jailbreak and mass slaughter putting local authorities on alert, buying time for military intervention - the town was nearly levelled to the ground, with few survivors.

But you seem to remember - you survived, didn’t you?

...Also, below the main headline about the failed revolution, there's something about Those Who Crave Hands? Huh.

Anyways, you've got marketing to do! ]

Ohhh, think we'd have better chances writing our pitches drunk?

Re: DISCUSSION

[time5kip]

No, I'm just pretty sure we're going to die.

[ . . . Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck

Highly stressed and vexed and going immediately pale when the location finally registers. Her fingers curl into the sides of her maid's skirt.

No, no no no no...]

[bloodyrose]

[ Immediate concern. ]

Yuuki. . .?

[sunflowering]

[ Fangs gritting. ]

This is the same world as before.

[ Visibly trying to calm herself down. ]

Okami-san and I... after the opera house, we had another round.

[ She lost... a lot. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[time5kip]

[ oh ]

...What's wrong?

Re: DISCUSSION

[sunflowering]

We've been here before.

But--

[ She's... trying hard to still her trembling. ]

It was different last time. It... my second run of it. It didn't go well.

he just, hesitantly, puts a hand on her shoulder.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[sunflowering]

[ She tenses and swallows thickly. ]

What... what a terrible personality our host has.

[morderti]

... Kagyua.

Re: DISCUSSION

[sunflowering]

Sorry--

[ Give her a moment. She's trying really hard to swallow down the bile in her throat at the memories. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[firststone]

Oh, is that why.

Hey, Kaguya, focus on us, okay? Can you hear what I'm saying?

Re: DISCUSSION

[sunflowering]

[ Her fingers tighten into her skirts tighter. Right. Right. She needs to focus. She swallows tightly, and takes a breath... then another.

She has to keep it together. Vergil and Ao are both new. They'll panic if she panics. ]

I'm sorry. I--

I just. I recognize this place.

Re: DISCUSSION

[firststone]

What's up with this setting? Wasn't the intro more of a cybernetic kind of thing...?

Re: DISCUSSION

[auguryofinnocence]

I don't think they care much for continuity.

Re: DISCUSSION

[firststone]

Ahahah, it really threw me off. But I guess we just don't get the reference.

[ glancing at Kaguya ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[morderti]

...

[this place again?]

Re: DISCUSSION

[firststone]

What about you, Skylark? What's your best selling point?

Re: DISCUSSION

[morderti]

I'm not a herbivore.

[which is super telling it's not gonna be useable]

Re: DISCUSSION

[auguryofinnocence]

Well. Any volunteers?

Re: DISCUSSION

[time5kip]

Now or later makes no difference to me, and I'd rather go first and see how things will evolve after that.

Re: DISCUSSION

[auguryofinnocence]

How good of you. Then the question is whether we want to go above and beyond for more votes, or just downvote for them.
