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.)

...Can't this be home?

...it can't be, for me. As much as I would love that to be true. I don't deserve it.

So it's a little selfish, but I'd rather spend time with you in the now, when we're still figuring out how we find all the things that make us the happiest and hold onto them.

Nothing's a matter of who deserves it.

But all the same... I think if I left my work unfinished, I'd regret it.

It's a really good future, though.

[ she glances up. ]

But it might need some shoring up before you can live in it...

[She glances at the crumbling sky.]

...If everyone stays and helps, then...

[She doesn't sound very convinced, though.]

...I think we've gotten things a little messy, sorry...

...but even though things aren't perfect, you're one of the people who makes me really feel like... they're not all bad, and maybe even more good than otherwise.

So if we're leaving this place, I'll be with you.

[She exhales shakily.]

...You're like that for me, too. You're... a friend like I've never really had before.

[ she just folds her arms around Glory's shoulders. ]

Yeah.

Let's go, all right? Just hold on to me.

[After a moment, she leans against her and slides an arm around her.]

...Yeah, alright.

[ she keeps one arm around Glory's shoulders as they go.

onward, to reality. ]
