Vergil's heart game r5
You feel weak, your body won't move no matter how you try, and you are falling, away from everything you know and love. Away from everything you need to accomplish. If you could just reach out, maybe you could hold on to it, claw your way back. But it's a useless endeavour, you fall unconscious, and your mind goes blank except for poetry and a familiar voice.
O mother Enitharmon, wilt thou bring forth other sons?
To cause my name to vanish, that my place may not be found,
For I am faint with travail,
Like the dark cloud disburden'd in the day of dismal thunder.
My roots are brandish'd in the heavens, my fruits in earth beneath
Surge, foam and labour into life, first born and first consum'd!
Consumed and consuming!
Then why shouldst thou, accursed mother, bring me into life?
You wake on the ground in a cave, cold, wet, and sticky. It smells of rotting flesh. Your objective is clear, but you can't recall a name or face. Nothing else about your memory of him is changed, but for some reason the name "Vergil" just won't come to you, and you couldn't describe how he looks if your life depended on it. But at least your body starts to respond to your will, slowly regaining enough strength to carry on.

Then let me thank you for wanting to do so much for me.
no subject
You don't have to thank me, Vivi. It's only natural to want to.
[She's just going to reach for one of the hands on her face and lace their fingers together.]

"Do you have to?"

no subject
Ah, apologies... but I would say yes. I wanted to comfort Lily...
[He squeezes her one last time before letting go gently to... go crouch next to Vergil again? This is a good idea?]
Are you feeling any better?
no subject
But then he's too distracted by Levity. He smiles, nodding. "Sure, I feel fine, what's up?" Like he doesn't even remember stealing your soul!
no subject
But she'll keep quiet for now since Vivi has questions.

The ceiling.
[Do you get it. You see Vergil said what's up and in addition to being a colloquial expression meaning---]
no subject
You were very lonely when I first came here.
[And then Vergil ate his soul, but you know, no biggie, it was cute.]
Do you feel less so now?
no subject
"Oh, yeah. I guess I do feel a bit better...I know you're not going to leave me."
no subject
I'm glad, then. But I hope you realize I won't leave you alone once we're out of here, either, for all your attempts to tell me you make a bad friend.
[Soulvore is friendship! He pats baby on the head gently, if that's allowed.]
Can you tell us how to get to the house?
no subject
"Oh - Lily has Yamato, you know how to use it right? You can just go there then. You should definitely take him there, Lily."
no subject
It's cute to see them bonding LITTLE DOES SHE KNOW.
no subject
Who's Yamato?
no subject
"Who? Me I guess, mostly. It's my sword."
But -- there's a clatter, the sound of many heavy footsteps, and the rubble blocking the entrance from the cave is blown away. The Angelos force their way in, and they set their gaze to the people inside immediately. Vergil's eyes widen, he takes a small step back. If you're perceptive you might notice that he struggles to breathe.
I AM PROPERLY THREAD TRACKING
Oh, but. Angelos. Oh, this is great. She notices Vergil not having a good time.
"Vivi, get him and get out of here."
Sheeeeeeeee is going to take them on.
Re: I AM PROPERLY THREAD TRACKING
It gives him a reason for bravery, so he transforms, smaller and immature compared to his usual demon form, but it still leaves him at Lily's height. And a demon.
1/2, gag tag??
Re: I AM PROPERLY THREAD TRACKING
Levity, too, knows that друг can't leave this room - as much as it would pain him to leave behind a child, even if a demon child, he remembers the concern the boy showed when Levity came in, the protectiveness in those last moments before death. All Levity could do here was die uselessly in front of Vergil. How would that make him feel?
Nevertheless, the thought churns his stomach.
Levity moves forward to grab Lily's arm.]
L-Lily, it's true, he can't leave here--we have to go. Don't make him lose more friends.

She cuts a way with Yamato to the manor]
Let's go.
