Heart Soldier Senshi
[ You spill out of the elevator into a Dungeon— the elevator is gone when you look back.
It's dark down here, in the dungeon, and the wall sconces are unlit; the only light source is from the hallway. In the dim light, though, you can see a handful of barred cells against one stone wall with fixtures for manacles. There's a drain set into the floor, in the middle, around which the floor is stained a darker color and is… sticky? The air is cold, and stale.
Against the wall next to the door is a set of shelves and some hanging hooks, as well as two simple wooden chairs, one of which looks like it's seen better days. Someone's left a jacket on one of the hooks. The shelves contain mostly ordinary household tools—a pair of scissors, a hammer, some pliers, a coil of rope.
Despite everything, it's the jacket that sets you off. Hung from the hooks, it looks like something that belongs on the back of a classroom chair, when seen from below, your face at ground level from being tripped again. Or held down, or scrubbing your desk clean, again and again. Nothing like the tortures that rest of the dungeon promises, it's mundane suffering that you feel you can't escape, will never be able to escape, unless you take one of those tools in your hand and turn it against them as soon as the time is right. When? You feel you'll instinctively know, but that's a feeling you know isn't yours and not one you want to be. But if you break, fear and pain will overwhelm you, and you'll submit: the rest of the memory will tell you true when to strike.
A spirit board is placed amongst the household tools.
A readout on your phone tells you the rules and displays the sanity goal (explore rooms) and your traitor goal (kill without witnesses) as well as the item that you've been given (spirit board). It looks like nothing is stopping you from committing the traitor goal even while you're sane, if you wish to.
There is one exit: South. ]

[a huffed laugh, completely humorless]
Pretty sure that's how we're all feeling at this point.
Re: Session 19 Discussion
looking to the door. ]
I would say just put me down before I even leave the room, but...
[ Maybe HSS isn't that kind of team. ]
Re: Session 19 Discussion
Is. . . that what you want?
Re: Session 19 Discussion
Hugging him back, tight. ]
Maybe I would rather be dead, maybe I want to go pick a fight.
[ AND THIS IS A DILEMMA SOMEHOW. ]
Re: Session 19 Discussion
I'd rather pick a fight.
[. . .]
There are some assholes out there who deserve what's coming to them.
[and he wants to be the one to deliver]
Re: Session 19 Discussion
yea. ]
People attack in this place without being provoked. What's so different if WE do that?
Re: Session 19 Discussion
[this is absolutely the ghost talking]
To rid the world of selfish fuckers who take advantage of others for their own personal gain.
Re: Session 19 Discussion
Gently framing his face. ]
We've been hurt too many times, huh?
Re: Session 19 Discussion
Joker and Fox teamed up on me. North did too, with her. . . unitmates.
[and he looks hurt as he recounts this]
Re: Session 19 Discussion
Holds him, protectively. maybe we don't, tell ren that she was willingly killed by both.
maybe she looks more surprised about north. ]
Teamed up on you...?
[ the ghost super hates that. ]
[ prim looks pretty mad. ]
I'm sorry...
Re: Session 19 Discussion
[no it's okay, tell him, ghost won't care]
Got North, too. Not Fox, though.
Not yet.
Re: Session 19 Discussion
I killed Joker, even if it took him two times to cut the right place. Fox... [ she shakes her head ]
I didn't want to see him hurt anymore. He's suffered so much. We put each other out of our misery.
[ Her eyes narrow at the mention of North. ]
I haven't had a chance to run into North.
[ sounds a little bitter, maybe it's for the better. ]
She would hate this side of me.
Re: Session 19 Discussion
I don't hate this side of you. I think it's— great. Admirable.
Re: Session 19 Discussion
Wanting to hurt anyone who I think deserves it is....admirable?
[ GHOST HIGHLY AGREES. ]
Re: Session 19 Discussion
[GHOST??? GHOST???????]
Because it means you're strong. You're willing to dispense justice by your own hands.
Re: Session 19 Discussion
Re: Session 19 Discussion
[. . . so long as she picked him over Joker, right? right???]
[he caresses her cheek gently]
Not you. Because you're different.
Re: Session 19 Discussion
I don't know how I am any different...
Re: Session 19 Discussion
[she wouldn't abandon him. wouldn't team up to kill him. wouldn't hurt him willingly. not like everyone else]
[right?]
Re: Session 19 Discussion
protect mars.
love mars.
mars means a lot to her. ]
So are you, you know.
Re: Session 19 Discussion
[he knows what it feels like. so does prim. that makes them comrades]
[and he'd do whatever it took to protect her from anything or anyone]
Re: Session 19 Discussion
Let's try to stick together?
Re: Session 19 Discussion
[she gets a cheek smoochu]
Let's get outta here.
