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]

[ It's unclear whether she's unconvinced or is just too upset to be emotive about it. ]

I think the appealing part is pretty clear. I'd much rather fight something than try to convince someone to leave their paradise, even if it isn't real.

...I know.

[ And hand on her shoulder, light pressure. ]

But you might be our best shot here at reminding her of all the good parts of the real world.

Yeah, and go through her head in the process.

[ Sighing, and pulling it together. ] If I can find her, that's the plan. But if I have to drag her, I'm doing it.

...Good.

[ Softer. ]

That's the right attitude to have.

[ Smile slanting. ]

We can apologize for the invasion of privacy after they're safe.
