Tea's Heart - Session 2
INFO
❍ Characters are aware that Tea's heart is being threatened by CORRUPTION.
❍ If you're in the same run, you can interact!
❍ Unit abilities are MIGHT BE ON — if, and only if, Tea has seen them work or your character has explicitly told her about them — unless otherwise specified.
Nothing Up My Sleeve can't access locations outside of the heart.
❍ Canon abilities MIGHT BE ON —if, and only if, Tea explicitly knows that they're a thing — unless otherwise specified.
❍ Characters have whatever was on their person at the time, including their cell phone!
❍ Over the course of the heart, characters are very likely to be afflicted with STATUS EFFECTS. This will be OOCly determined by dice roll. You can have more than one status effect at a time, but multiples of the same don't stack.
The top levels that require a roll will have a note.
Each time you move to a different top level thereafter, you can roll 1d10 to see whether the effect lingers (1-6) or fades (7-10).
❍ Injury and death are possible.

Re: THE GARDEN
[that was supposed to be a surprised yelp, but y'know. water.
at least the frigidness snaps him back to attention after that SENSORY OVERLOAD and well....he can also notice that dull patch a lot easier now. He tries sitting up to catch his breath, then frowns.]
. . .I'm going to regret this. But I'm either dead or dreaming, so.
[takes a breath and goes back under. WHAT IS THIS DULL FAKE RIVER MIRROR PATCH THING...]

Re: THE GARDEN
can heightened senses tell if any buttons look like they've been pressed recently]
Re: THE GARDEN
Re: THE GARDEN
This is so weird. . .Does anyone know what I should be doing. . .
Re: THE GARDEN
"Looking around's a good start. You doing okay down there?"
Re: THE GARDEN
[sits the HECK UP, looking toward the apple tree, then trying to scramble toward]
Someone else is here? Hey, where am I?
Re: THE GARDEN
"Hey, man. You're in Miya's — that's Tea, to you — heart."
Re: THE GARDEN
Who are you? Are you from another unit? I know she has a boyfriend somewhere.
Re: THE GARDEN
Barks a laugh, "Me? Nope, I'm someone she knows from home. Name's Ryouta! And you're Pip."
Re: THE GARDEN
So where is she? I'd say this is a nice place if not for the horrific plummet toward earth.
Re: THE GARDEN
"That's me! I'm her partner's brother."
Plucks an apple, munches.
"Unfortunately, she's a li'l missing at the mo. Or a lot missing. It's kind of a problem."
Re: THE GARDEN
Why?? Then we've gotta find her! Where'd you last see her? Does this tree have a door like in her room. . .?
Re: THE GARDEN
"Something's gotten fucky, is all we know. There's not a whole lot we can do to help. You guys might have better luck, assuming you don't, like, die in the attempt."
Re: THE GARDEN
[Huffs!! ATTEMPTS....TO CLIMB TREE.....he is noodly but nimble]
Re: THE GARDEN
There are only three things in the tree: Ryou, Tree Things, and what looks to be a nest tucked into a cosy nook.
"Welp! I'll be cheering you on, bud."
Re: THE GARDEN
[that's fine, he mostly wanted to get up for a VANTAGE POINT. peering out to see if he can spot anything else strange in the garden with those heightened senses.
will also peek in the nest too, though wary in case any birds decide to attack]
Re: THE GARDEN
The nest is nice and sturdy, built of sticks and lined with soft grasses, flower petals, and soft fluffy feathers. An apple sits in the middle. There's no birds tho, and -
Oh, did he just hear a scream?
... It was probably just the wind.
Re: THE GARDEN
--did you hear that??
[sliding down the tree!! taking apple with him]
I definitely just heard something? Dammit, where. . .?
[listening for anything again!! which direction it came from, etc]
Re: THE GARDEN
"Huh? Hear what?"
He strains ... and he hears it again, coming from somewhere around the stream.
Re: THE GARDEN
Re: THE GARDEN
"Are they???"
You think you caught a glimpse of something … a streak of red, quickly swirled away by the rush of water?
Re: THE GARDEN
GETTING BACK IN THE WATER]
Yeah, someone might be bleeding? Maybe it's coming from upstream--damn, this is so cold!
[time to tread water!! looking around for more signs]
Re: THE GARDEN
"Oh boy."
There's ...!
... Nothing. It's just a regular ol' normal stream. Nothing wrong here.
Re: THE GARDEN
Am I going crazy?
[what if he keeps following it WHERE DOES IT LEAD]
