Murder Mysterium - Game End, Part 1

Who: You!
Where: The Game Tower
When: Day 365, Morning

[ Surely, this time, it must be over. This time, this time, it must be over.

The remaining structures still standing collapse, crumbling into the rest of the demolished mansion. You notice, too—the flowers begin to stretch at every entrance to the garden mazes, vines and leaves and branches and thorns sealing them away from you, completely removing access. Some people may be stumbling out of the gardens now, but it's evident that if they aren't here with you now, they must have been kicked out of the game.

The space in front of the mansion—just in front of the doors—splits open, the space suddenly seeming two-dimensional as the space folds for a door. The door, actually—the door to the elevator that leads you home.

It's not open for business yet. Before you run off, away from this place forever—

You'll want to gather around the fountain.

Its water's stopped, though rather than any stillness in water you can instead see the water drain away, revealing a set of stairs as well as . . . every unit in the Graveyard. Ah, there they are.

Not all of them are intact—while LiliS, sensitIV, future is now, and AlcheME! are completely uninjured (barring any injuries they accrued on their personal time and/or while in the PvP pit), avante en garde and YOU-kai are injured, and sea.Di . . .

. . . well, those sure are some chunks, huh. . . ]

[Her expression shutters, only briefly flicking to hurt before smoothing to disaffected (or at least relatively so given the whole recent un/exploding and all)]

...Right. Forget it. Why am I wasting your time when I obviously don't know nothing about nothing?
purrrnicious: (A-21)

[personal profile] purrrnicious 2021-05-22 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, that's a leap, when I'm just saying you don't know Adora like I do.

[Flicking her tail, and there's a beat before she continues.]

...But you're not really talking about her, are you?
unbr8kable: (12)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2021-05-22 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
[She frowns, but that's certainly no denial]

Doesn't matter. Same results either way.

...This time they didn't beef it, at least. Not for lack of trying.

[She just shrugs. ]

Everyone just does what they want. Everyone. Honestly I kind of prefer dealing with units like BARiTONES, at least they’re upfront about it — makes them predictable.

The ones that pretend they’re nice and friendly and everything they do is for “the greater good” and is justified and they totally care about what they’re doing to others — they’re the worst.
unbr8kable: (dot dot dot)

[Shifts, surreptitiously(?) rubbing at one ear]

Well, your old lady's one of 'em, so guess the "worst" ain't that bad to you.
purrrnicious: (5-27)

[personal profile] purrrnicious 2021-05-23 04:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh, my what now? “Old lady”?
unbr8kable: (sir puffs)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2021-05-23 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
The little woman. The old ball and chain. Your better half. The missus. The wife.
purrrnicious: (F-1)

[personal profile] purrrnicious 2021-05-23 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. Adora.

[She makes a lil ‘tch’ sound, looking away as her tail flicks moodily.]

Uh, no, it is the worst, when she’s on one of her self-righteous streaks.

...But the rest of it’s not her. You don’t know her. Adora never does what she wants, she does what she thinks everyone else expects of her. With the Horde, it was be the perfect soldier, practise til she tops every test, be the future Force Captain who will bring the Rebellion to its knees. Then she joined the princesses and it was be the hero, be the one to save them all, give up everything for the “greater good”, whatever that’s supposed to be. And here...

Heart was the worst team they could’ve put her on.
unbr8kable: (hum)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2021-05-23 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
...You really think that if she was on Baritones or Wild City or Taisho, she'd give up on that idealism she remembered and only focus on saving her own skin?
purrrnicious: (60)

[personal profile] purrrnicious 2021-05-23 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
She needs a cause. But protecting her unit could’ve been that cause.
unbr8kable: (you know nothing jon snow)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2021-05-23 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
And that would've been enough? After going from saving the world?

...If you really got an argument that'll convince her of that, the rest'll prolly go along.
purrrnicious: (F-53)

[personal profile] purrrnicious 2021-05-23 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Actually I’m pretty sure Etheria’s less on the “saved” end of the spectrum and more towards “doomed” instead. Along with, like, the entire universe.
unbr8kable: a baking powder? (exsqueeze me?)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2021-05-23 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
...Was she trying to destroy the world all along? Since. That's a different strategy to all of this.
purrrnicious: (A-25)

[personal profile] purrrnicious 2021-05-23 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Skritching the side of her cheek. ]

No. That was the leader of the intergalactic Horde. Turns out he’s a psychotic expansionist tyrant cult leader with a clone and robot army, and he found Etheria, so. You know. Doomed, etcetera.
unbr8kable: (shruggo)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2021-05-23 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds like she's all in on lost causes, then...
purrrnicious: (17)

[personal profile] purrrnicious 2021-05-23 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I’m just gonna take her to Sabre’s world. Problem solved.
purrrnicious: (F-24)

[personal profile] purrrnicious 2021-05-23 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[There’s a loaded pause, then:]

Yeah. It’s better.
unbr8kable: (waiting)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2021-05-23 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Just gotta tough it out until they let you outta here, then. If you got someplace to go.
