HEART GAME: REQUIEM (run 1)

You awaken in the ☆ZRAEL dorm common room. It’s dark. Darker than usual, and the reason why is immediately apparent: the lamps are all extinguished, the stars have disappeared, and the moon has shifted to new. The ocean below the glass panes of the floor is silent and still. Everything feels cold and unmoving, not unlike a painting.

She frowns. "Uh-- yeah... I couldn't find anything though."

And I didn't find anything like that when I looked around, either. So either it's not here, or we didn't look close enough.

[goes around the house, trying extra hard to see if anything's lurking around! 11 on the roll]

... well, you're not sure how you missed it, before.

But you look up and see the bright green eyes of a massive bat-like creature staring down at you from the roof of the house, teeth bared and fur bristling.

Oh. Hey there.

[very slowly and carefully takes the rifle from where he'd slung it around his back or something]

The creature hisses at the sight of the gun, but doesn't move.

[good because he's shooting it with a 22! annnd 4 damage]

[ it shrieks in pain and-- freezes, staring at him--

Then launches itself down to swipe at him with its claw with 18 to hit-- and 1 damage. ]

[oh no a scratch]

but while it's down he's dropping the rifle and going for the stake with a -1 on the attack]

[ it dodges, easily, and lunges forward to bite at that arm.

And with a nat 20 it bites down, deep and painful, for 14 damage. ]

[OKAY THAT STINGS QUITE A BIT

but he just snarls and powers through the pain, casting ice knife at it and dealing 5 damage]

[ it squeals and swipes at him again at a 12-- and misses. ]

[goes at it with the stake again with an 8]

[ this is a comedy of errors huh

Cuz she dodges, swipes again and misses with a 10. ]

[wow this is a fucking mess

throws up his arms and casts charm]

Okay! Okay, how 'bout we call a fucking truce.

[ it pauses, and stops, looking confused.

... but it doesn't attack, at least. ]

Can you talk? Do you understand what I'm saying?

It sits, curling a hand over the gunshot wound, and nods a little.

You okay with us not trying to kill each other anymore? Because it looks like we're both pretty bad at it.

[never mind that he is bleeding quite a lot from that bite wound, please ignore that]

It stares at you a moment longer and shuffles back a few inches, and nods again.

Awesome! I've got a couple of questions for you, and after that I'll let you be. Sound good?

It nods again.

[raises a finger]

One. Do you know where the True Heart is?

[and another]

Two. Do you know where the key to that house is?

It stares at him, ears flattening, and... nods. Doesn't specify what it's nodding to though.

...Which one are you answering?

It hesitates a long moment, then shakes its head.

Your charm has worn off by now.
