Eclipse's Heart Game ☉ Session #2
You drift like you're floating in water. It's almost relaxing, actually. As long as you don't think too hard that what you're floating in may be bottomless, because under you lies only a deep darkness that only the ocean can provide.
Then something grabs you and drags you deeper, down, down, down into the abyssal depths. You can't breathe, but that's not on the forefront of your mind now, is it?
There is a mounting sense of anxiety and dread.
Who do you want to become? Will you even get to see tomorrow? What if all roads lead to ████████? Can you still stay '███'? If people see the ████ you, will they think less of you? Will they feel cheated?
You want to live. Even if it's a ███, even if your hands must be covered in █████, you want to live. You want to be '███'.
Finally, a voice pierces through the darkness. It a woman's voice.
"My, how unfortunate. Your journey ends before it even begins."
"... Just kidding. That would be terribly boring! I suppose I can do the boy a favour just this once."
You feel someone grab your arm and pull you up to the surface.
...
When you come to, you are standing somewhere else.

Re: START
"So, what do you intend to do?"
Re: START
[he looks around a little again, the beach, the city... apprehensive because he sure doesn't like futzing around like this with someone else]
We wouldn't be here if there was no reason for it. Is there something that needs to be done?
Re: START
Re: START
All right.
Re: START
"You can go into the building down the boardwalk, or somewhere in the city. There's the beach too, but that also means you'll be seeing more of me."
"I suppose you could go to the undercity too," she says, tapping a foot on the floorboards beneath the two of them for emphasis. "But it's not exactly a leisurely trip."
"The others will be better able to tell you what you can help with than I am."
Re: START
And is there a goal at all...?
Re: START
Is it any surprise.
"I suppose the 'goal' would be to meet the 'real' him, but no one can do that without getting to learn more about him. Helping him get some things in order would be good, too."
Re: START
Ah. I'll take a look around, then.
Re: START
So, where to?
Re: START
[HE KIND OF KNOWS IT but isn't sure.
he'll head for the building down the boardwalk at first, after their conversation is done]
Re: START
The blue building really stands out compared to everything else.
