idolpro | Glory Ideal World

As you come to consciousness, you hear narration in your head. For some reason, this seems perfectly natural.

Welcome to Glory's Ideal World!

You'll find you have a gun at your side. You'll use this to interact with the things and people in this world. Don't worry, though! This is not a normal gun, and it doesn't fire real bullets! No things or people will be harmed by being shot with them. In fact, they won't do anything at all unless you shoot at weak points—actually, let's call them key items or key concepts. In order to break through to reality, you'll need to identify which of them are true and accurate representations, and which are illusion or delusion. Destroy the delusions, and strengthen the truths! However, be careful—if you strengthen a delusion it will make it harder to escape this world, and if you destroy a truth it will be harder to escape with Glory and yourselves intact!

You have two kinds of bullets - "Affirm" bullets and "Deny" bullets. If you think something is true and should be reinforced, shoot it with an "Affirm" bullet! On the other hand, if you think it's false, shoot a "Deny" bullet! You'll find out what other effects this has as you go! You've even been given one special skill to help you out!

Of course, you can always leave things alone. But if you don't want to be trapped here forever, you'll need to make some decisions. So don't be shy. You've got unlimited ammo.

There appears to be an almost ghostly pistol at your hip, hovering attached to nothing. It's a revolver with two settings, easy to pick up and fire, and the bullets themselves are even more incorporeal - shadows that dart through the air and disappear without a trace on impact.

(OOC: Key items and concepts will be bolded in descriptions and dialogue, and your character will be able to sense they seem important as well. You can shoot any of them you see at any point. How do you shoot a concept? Don't worry about it. Just say what you're shooting in your action tag, and whether you are AFFIRMing or DENYing. In addition to doing damage to or reinforcing the ideal world illusion, shooting these may cause mental or physical effects. These affect everyone in the vicinity, not just the person who fired the bullet.

Otherwise, you can assume the guns have no effect on anything.

You can check your character's individual skill and their starting area in the signup sheet. Skills are one time use.)

As the bullet hits, suddenly the table looks less like a table and more like a deep pit, and the math textbook falls into it. For a moment, you see a vision in the pit—a dusty, overcrowded library. On the floor lies a blond-haired boy with blood pooled around his head.

Then everything returns to normal, though Glory's table is now empty, and she blinks in slight confusion.

[hm, interesting]

Feeling okay there?

...Yeah. I'm fine.

[she still seems a bit distracted, though, and she rises from her seat]

Ah, I should get my coffee.

Good idea. I'll get some too.

[getting up and approaching the bar with her]

[As they approach the counter, he can see notice that there are some cups laid out already. There's a large cup of black coffee with Glory's name on it. There's one with his name on it too.]

Ooh, convenient.

[shit is glory a fan of black coffee, he super does not remember because he does not bother memorising people's preferences]

[a mystery. she picks it up and sips it, anyway]

Do you want to hang out for a while?

[picking up his own cup, though not drinking]

Yeah, of course.

[smiling]

Then let's sit and talk.

Gladly.

[returning to her table to sit down!]

[Sits down with him!]

Has anything exciting happened lately? You haven't been to visit in a while... maybe you should stay for a sleepover.

Maybe.

[and he's going to shoot a big old DENY at the coffee mug]

[The bullet hits the cup, and for a moment it looks like it cracks, but you blink and it's gone.

Glory looks distant for a moment, then stands, glancing around the bar for a moment before locating cream and sugar, which she doctors the coffee with until it's pale.

Then she comes to sit down again.]

...We could...

[She trails off.]
