Nemesis and Hurricane's Ideal World: Session 2

[idolpro]

[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]

So, how long do you give it before everything inevitably falls apart again? Knowing this place, I'd say... ten minutes, mayhap?

Perhaps twenty, if we're exceptionally fortunate.

Re: THE HOUSE

[sangreine]

I'd say you're probably right.

Everything here looks nice, but... [ Either it can't last, or it's too perfect, meaning they'll neve get them back. ]

Re: THE HOUSE

[scattershot]

But it's a dream. And it can't last. And we're here to ruin it. Wonderful.

[She goes and knocks on the wall of the house.]

It certainly seems real enough.

Re: THE HOUSE

[sangreine]

It's not real. [ With perhaps more conviction than she feels. ]

I just got Nemesis back from being all grey, I'm not leaving her here no matter what. Hurricane either. [ She likes Hurricane a lot but has a clear priority ]

Re: THE HOUSE

[scattershot]

It certainly isn't. No war worth the fighting ends so cleanly, and none worth the name without cost. It's not a thing to be tidied away and forgot.

Re: THE HOUSE

[sangreine]

True enough. But I'd rather have an actual fight than trying to talk someone out of paradise.

Re: THE HOUSE

[scattershot]

Alizarin... I think most anyone would.

Re: THE HOUSE

[sangreine]

[ As much of a smile as she can give anyone in these circumstances ]

I know. At least we're here with people we know and trust. Maybe between all of us we can figure this out.

Re: THE HOUSE

[scattershot]

Mayhap we can break it gently. Somehow.

Re: THE HOUSE

[sangreine]

If we can.

[ Her eyes flash a bright, glowing red. ]

But if I have to, I'll make it forceful. I'll beg forgiveness after.
