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.)

[He eyes the highschool uniform Glory suspiciously, trigger finger still itchy.]

So, who're you?

Nah. You're irrelevant.

[He twirls the gun in his hand lazily,]

I chose to go back to 'Nero', because I had a world and a family that still relied on me.

[He glances over at Glory, now safely nestled in his jacket, and pulls her close in a side hug, protectively.]

She chose to be 'Morning Glory'. She said fuck you to all her past selves and built herself a new reality. And a new family.

You're not anything anymore.

Ah...

[Real Glory startles slightly out of her fugue, looking up at him before moving more firmly against his side.]
gigadevilbreaker: (Objection!)

Because she's not just playing whatever's being handed to her. She's building things, that no one told her to do! Just because it feels right!

No one made her change her name from Maki. Or decide she liked the thrill of flying motorcycles and b-being tied up by someone she trusts. Hell, I was the one who showed her how to customize her gear!

She doesn't need to lean on the fake stuff giving her connections to people anymore. Or make her happy. The person she is right now matters to us.

Then she'll learn and keep growing. As many times as it takes. Morning Glory's never been someone who'd just lie down in defeat, even if the whole world's stacked against her.

Anything's better than you. There's nothing more worthless than letting some ancient history dictate what's real or not, instead of finding it yourself.

[Glory at his side ducks her head, face reddening]

Nero...

[The girl at the podium just rolls her eyes.]

[He cocks the gun and aims it at her, right between the eyes]

Better come up with some better last words than that.

Maybe. But she's got better things t'do than lose sleep over you.

[Nero fires the Deny bullet.]
