HEARTFORGE - sensitIV (Session 4)

[idolpro]

You are in the heart of a massive forge. In front of you are tools, and your objective is clear - to use them to channel the strength of your heart and create.

What are you creating? Who can say. Only you - and only you'll know if - and when, it's good enough. The stories before you are not yours right now, but you'll make them yours soon enough.

And you will survive.

In this case, the story's just a means of making us suffer. We'll have to inflict all kinds of unkind feelings and memories to fill it all out.

But as for other, similar stories... that isn't up to me to say.

Ahaha! Why unkind feelings and memories? Why not simply give them the tonal dissonance—a ridiculous memory for a ridiculous story, that sounds fine to me—!

[ the bitterness does not quite wane, but the chaotic breakdown-like mirth recedes into the background as he remembers the other part of the prompt—"the townspeople ask for salvation, to be protected from the coming storm"—and he stops laughing ]

[ clicks his tongue, somber ]

. . . Well, as long as it's effective, in any case.

[Reaching over to pat him on the head.]

Let's just get through it so we can all go home together, okay?

Re: DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

[ getting his head pat is weirdly nostalgic but also izanagi has done this a few times already...............

sighs, tipping his head a little into the hand ]

Let's.

[bondsofsuffering]

[He's kind of surprised when Lucifel tips his head into his hand, and amused/affectionate as he pets him a little more.]

We'll knock it out of the ballpark.

Re: DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

[ if he focuses on the hand that's petting him the fringes of his burning bitter anger smoothe out a little. it's like watching a cat slowly unbristle in real time ]

Of course—at least, we'll do our best.
