endgame pt 1

[idolpro]

Who: Competitors no longer hungry for games
Where: The Game Tower
When: Day 408, night (the game took the whole day)

[ Wow! That was wild. Wild ass shit.

Now you're all here. Most of you remember everything that happened. Some of you might remember most things, but not Session 18/19 because time and stuff. Don't worry. It'll show up in your dreams. :)

Anyway, you're probably wanting to go home now. That's too bad! The doors are locked, so you can just sit back and vibe.

All screens show: Please wait. Processing results.

Powers are off too—but then, you're also not currently injured or suffering from status effects.

All of you except for members of AlcheME!, who all 1) can somehow open the doors and leave, 2) have powers on, and 3) are not healed or revived whatsofuckingever. Status effects are OOC optionally kept, but no extra abilities (such as Flames) are kept.

Well.

It seems like they're probably definitely rock bottom so. ]

[ geo daddy he's sorry e_e ]

Only a small thing...I... uh, tried to nuke them for murdering Tsukasa. [ actually he was trying to nuke Vergil but they might as well been the same person. ]

[leaveofabsence]

Is tried the word I should be focusing on in that admittance?

[skyshard]

N... actually, yeah.

[leaveofabsence]

[ Aether... ]

Did you end up injuring yourself?

[skyshard]

...Oh! Oh, no, I threw them into the sewer down the manhole while I wasn't there. I did it very safely.

[ perfect execution. It's just somehow... Vergil and Fucko came out completely unscathed by a roll 9 detonator, no big deal or anything. And then they somehow decided to chill out in fighting each other to come out of the sewers for some weird unexplainable reason.

...Magically where Aether also happened to be. ]

[leaveofabsence]

I see.




I am sorry that you were not able to avenge your friend's death.

[skyshard]

I think... I killed enough people that it's just as well.

[leaveofabsence]

. . .

[ Oh.




He places a hand on Aether's shoulder. ]

Sometimes--- that path is the one we end up on whether we wish it or not.

[skyshard]

I just... there's else nothing we can do but play as they insist, right ...? I can't let anything happen to you or the others...

[leaveofabsence]

There are certain penalties to not playing in accordance to the rules which can range from public humiliation to outright torture. I suppose it is up to the individual or team to decide if that is something they wish to risk.

Though.

... If I must admit, I would choose to fight or defend than do no harm. I have seen too much suffering arise from the latter path.

[skyshard]

[ nods. ] I'll keep that in mind...

[leaveofabsence]

But I would also like to know your feelings on the matter.

I hope you do not let this game disparage you into thinking you do not make good decisions. I have met many people in my life, and your ability to speak to the hearts of many and overcome hardship is a gift that I have rarely encountered.

[skyshard]

Ah, t-thanks. That actually really means a lot coming from you, sensei.
