Izanagi's Heart Game - Session #2


They say
that snowdrops were formed
as a gift from an angel
bequeathed unto Eve
a symbol of hope and rebirth

I need one good reason not to upend you from that bed.

[There's a low laugh.]

Because "He's" already buried me this deep in his efforts to kill me, and I'm not sure I'd make it if things got rough.

I am sorry I'm not the one you were looking for. The puzzles, too.
theyregooddogs: (in you everything sank—!)

It's fine. Put too much faith on you not to be absorbed in yourself. Hide my other away, too.
bondsofsuffering: ([Sad] for you; right)

Re: STAGE

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2021-01-24 09:11 am (UTC)(link)
No, it's not exactly a matter of that.

Rather - well, you were right. Everything here is just part of "Him." What he's buried most isn't even his relationships with others, even if he's tried that too.

It's his own will to live.

How'd those near death experiences pan out? You never showed the end.
bondsofsuffering: ([Think] pay the price)

Re: STAGE

"He" survived.

Every single attempt... he survived. Because he isn't permitted to die unless Ayumu's the one who kills him.
theyregooddogs: (in what sorrow are you not drowned!)

[personal profile] theyregooddogs 2021-01-24 09:31 am (UTC)(link)
No, I knew that. What were the feelings. Exhilaration followed by despair?
bondsofsuffering: ([Strain] then I would pray)

Re: STAGE

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2021-01-24 09:32 am (UTC)(link)
We don't have memories of most of them. Desperation, mostly. And centered around Ayumu himself.

And I thought I was narrow minded.

Still, should burn the chapel to the ground.

Probably. The less of that man's influence, the better.
theyregooddogs: (have you considered ... more dogs?)

Re: STAGE

[personal profile] theyregooddogs 2021-01-24 09:39 am (UTC)(link)
So, are you going to?
bondsofsuffering: ([Look] take another step)

Re: STAGE

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2021-01-24 09:41 am (UTC)(link)
I don't really have that power on my own. Directly influencing things, anyway.

[A beat.]

Would you like me to unstick the candles for you in there? There's stone, but a lot of it's still wood and carpeting. It should go up nicely.
theyregooddogs: (dd)

And leave a couple of bottles of wine or any accelerant out. Never committed arson before, could use the hands-on experience to round out my understanding of the type. Even if they rarely intersect with murderers.
bondsofsuffering: ([Sorry] the dead ends as)

Re: STAGE

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2021-01-24 09:45 am (UTC)(link)
As a parting gift to you, then. In thanks for putting up with this.

Hopefully by the end of it he'll be a little less troublesome to deal with.
theyregooddogs: (the song bird rose.)

Re: STAGE

[personal profile] theyregooddogs 2021-01-24 09:46 am (UTC)(link)
Unlikely. But that's where I get the choice to disappear whenever I'm ready to.
bondsofsuffering: ([Think] out of it)

Re: STAGE

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2021-01-24 09:49 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe "less unintentionally troublesome" would be more accurate.

[Hm. Anyway, he'll close his eyes for a short moment. And then:]

They're on the altar. Once you get it going, be sure to leave and close the door behind you so I can block it off from the rest of the heart.
theyregooddogs: (you still called and sang.)

Re: STAGE

[personal profile] theyregooddogs 2021-01-25 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
Still sounds like a bit of a stretch, but we'll see.

So . . . This is it?
bondsofsuffering: ([Strain] alone with nowhere)

I could help you edit the books a bit more, if you wanted to add to his knowledge or try to alter his beliefs a little. But you seemed pretty sure of what you put in there already.
