Nemesis and Hurricane's Ideal World: Session 1
[The sky above is a deep, unnatural crimson, filled with roiling clouds and creatures that are a sickly oil-slick black. They writhe and wriggle like something out of a Lovecraftian nightmare; they have entirely too many eyes, and entirely too many wings, and when they open their mouths, they have entirely too many teeth]
[Below them, the city of Tokyo is half-shattered; above the rooftops, mechanized suits the size of people hover in the air, darting in out of the chaos, laser blasts and explosions and wickedly sharp blades fighting tirelessly against the endless onslaught]
[Until finally, the last creature falls]
[All at once, civilians flood the streets of the city; the lights come on in all the buildings, which somehow have become whole again, safe and unharmed. A cheer goes up from the crowd. Overhead, a stunning fireworks display paints the night with light and color]
[And they all lived happily ever after]
[The end]
Re: THE CRAFT ROOM
There's the depressing line of thought. Does anything happen if he opens it up and takes one out for examination?]
Re: THE CRAFT ROOM
[There could be more. They could be better. Don't the people they belongs to deserve more?]
[Maybe if you added a heart or two, to the strings dangling from the tags. Maybe then…]
Re: THE CRAFT ROOM
Can he collect all the hearts off of things and stick them back in the jar, actually?]
Re: THE CRAFT ROOM
[It's not enough. It's not enough, and with each heart removed, that gnawing sense of not-good-enough becomes more overwhelming]
Re: THE CRAFT ROOM
Is there extra origami paper laying around?]
Re: THE CRAFT ROOM
[Every heart has been removed from the finished crafts, and somehow you know - you know - that now that they've been stripped bare, they won't be anywhere near enough]
[When you turn to look, the origami paper is gone. The crafts are gone, too, and all the materials to make them. Nothing is left; every tag and origami figure and wooden miniature has disappeared. And that's good, isn't it? That's what you wanted]
[Even if they weren't good enough, they're with someone who wants them now. (Are they, though? Did anyone want them at all?)]
[And if, perhaps, the room is a little too empty now with everything gone - if, perhaps, you had always hoped there would be something to replace them when they'd gone - isn't that on you, for not knowing better?]
Re: THE CRAFT ROOM
[He's going to keep the jar if it sticks around, though. Can he skip along to the lab?]
