Angel | Heart Game (part 3)

[idolpro]

As soon as you start to fall asleep, the world of Imeeji is engulfed by a bright light.

It’s strange, isn’t it? You have fallen asleep, and yet your consciousness is awake. You’re simply floating, waiting to remember what it’s like to exist. However, as you wait, a growing fear clutches at your chest. What if you don’t remember? What if you will always be empty? What if you never find what it is that you are looking for? What if you die?

You aren’t sure, but you swear that you just heard someone singing . . . the words are incomprehensible, but it makes you feel something familiar . . . a feeling that makes you feel like you’ll find what you’re looking for . . . and that everything will be alright in the end . . .

What is that feeling?

. . .

HUUUH?!

You don’t know?? Wowee . . . well, don’t worry! Since we're friends, I’ll tell you!

It’s hope, of course! !

[rollplayinghouse]

I haven't been inside before, but this is his lab... Somehow I doubt it's like this in real life. He may be pretty self-confident, but he's not the type to fill his lab with posters and pillows of himself.

[liftoft]

Yeah, probably not.

[ pauses, grinning as he looks over the merch

and then leeeeeaaaans over to her ]

You wanna take something for the road? One of the pillows maybe?

[rollplayinghouse]

[She looks embarrassed a bit out of proportion to his comment]

What? N-No! Why would I need a pillow with his face on it?

[Grabs one of the shirts and throws it at him.]

Maybe you should take something for the road.

[liftoft]

Maybe so!

[ listen... teasing her is fun, she's adorable when she's flustered.

He snatches the shirt out of the air as she throws it at him--and then struggles into it. That's right: he's now wearing an Intensity T-shirt over his gaudy Oracle outfit. It looks stupid. Ridiculous.

He loves it. ]

What do you think?

[rollplayinghouse]

...

[she just stares at him a few moments]

...You look ridiculous.

[liftoft]

Just tryin' to fit in! We don't wanna look like intruders or something, right?

[ he claps her on the shoulder and then peers into the trap door ]

Ready?

[rollplayinghouse]

...Yeah. I'll go first.

[She heads down the ladder before he can make any more embarrassing comments.]

[idolpro]

[You look like intruders to me.]
