idolpro | Angel | Heart Game (part 3)

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! !

[Suddenly EMBARRASSED as all heckies and in a half-whisper. She doesn't seem particularly upset or anything though.]

W-why are you heeeeeeeere?!

I'm not sure, exactly. We were just looking around...

Oh.

Okay.

Don't wake Intensity up! He's gotta rest!

Shouldn't he be sleeping in his bed, then?

His bed does not exist here.

[blinks]

Why not?

Because this is my heart! I think it would be weird if his bed was in here, golly!

Your... heart?

Oh yes. Or something like that. I do not really understand it very much . . .

I just know I keep this place secret to protect it.

I see. I figured it was some kind of dream, but...

[trails off]

Then this place is... somewhere just for you and Intensity?

[nods]

It isn't very loud and sparkly or dramatic, but I like it this way.

It seems comfortable... I'm glad you have it. Well, I was already glad you had each other, before, so I guess that's the same thing...?

Sorry for intruding.

It is okay! What are you looking for?

Just came to visit! This is cute as hell.

[Cheeks pufffffff.]

Is it cute . . . ?

Yeah! Super cute! 'Course, most things you do are pretty cute. That's the kinda person you are!

It's the kind of person I am . . .

[she just repeats the words to herself]

Yeah, exactly! You make stuff feel cute and relaxing, just by bein' there! I've had a blast in here, y'know?

Oh, I hope you do continue to find a lot of fun! There is a place with a lot of sheep . . . oh, but do be careful, do not go to the scary places! I think it should be easy to figure out where those are . . .

Oh yeah? What kinda stuff do you keep in the scary places?

Ummm . . . like the bad experiences and stuff. Things I'm afraid of? Things that are hard to understand . . .

I got it. Don't worry--all that stuff you're afraid of? I'm gonna help you face your enemy!

Oh.

It's good for you to not hide that stuff away! If you just sit on it, then it's always just out of sight, but still eatin' away at you. But you don't gotta be scared! Like I said, I'm gonna help you.

[she is being lectured, dad . . . ]

You're gonna help?
