Heart Game: Intensity (Turn 2)

[idolpro]

In the beginning, there is nothing but darkness and silence. A sleep that gives no rest but one out of necessity in order to keep functioning. Behind closed eyelids, the numbers of a clock tick down - one painstaking second at a time.

TIME UNTIL REBOOT:


And then you wake up.

As you shift to a standing position, you feel something sharp and pointed press against your side. Digging into the nearest pocket, you will find two small puzzle pieces. And from their odd shape, it looks like they would fit into a 3D spherical puzzle. Odd. You've never seen them before, but you do get a sense that these are a currency of some sort. Spend them wisely!

Game start.

[Glory emerges from the elevator sometime mid-hug.]

...Ah. Hey.

[carnivorouscarnival]

[ by now he has recovered enough presence of mind that he actually notices when she comes in and glances over. he does not try to detach himself from his sister yet, though. ]

Ah, Glory—this is the real you, right? Where the hell are you all coming from...?

[rollplayinghouse]

Yeah, it's the real me. And the real you, then....

It seems like there are a bunch of us here. Me and Cardigan and some new avante were with King of Hell Intensity.

[carnivorouscarnival]

[ raises an eyebrow. a second Intensity? well, it is his heart, so that probably makes sense... ]

Hah, that so... Don't know how to feel about that many people running loose in here.

[rollplayinghouse]

...Mm. I'm not too worried about them, but who knows what other people could be doing.

[carnivorouscarnival]

Well.

[ jerks a thumb at the version of himself hovering by the lever. ]

That's probably what he—"I"?—is here for.

[rollplayinghouse]

[glances at him and her lips quirk slightly]

I see. Well, that would at least prevent anyone from causing trouble up here.

[carnivorouscarnival]

No guarantees about the rest of it... Still, it's not like I've seen anywhere else to judge, but I'd bet this is one of the parts that could use the tightest security.

[rollplayinghouse]

The elevator showed Heaven and Hell, something called "Death-T," and some kind of hieroglyphs. And there was an Intensity unconscious in a glass box in "CPU core."

...I think you're right about this place, though.

[carnivorouscarnival]

[ repeats it back a little absently, like he's vaguely familiar with the term: ]

"Death-T," huh...?

[ and then frowns at the mention of unconscious Intensity in a glass box. ]

Hah... I'm really no good at decoding all this symbolism and shit.

[rollplayinghouse]

It's a combination of symbolism and technology stuff, so I don't think I'm great it it either. There was a "time until reboot" counter in there, though, so I'm hoping that one is just... his actual consciousness, and he'll wake up when we're done in here...

[carnivorouscarnival]

[ hm. ]

Yeah, that'd make sense. Probably.

[rollplayinghouse]

Probably.

At least, I figured I'd give it a bit before trying to bust the glass or anything.

[carnivorouscarnival]

Gyahaha... Good, good. Strange to say it, since breaking shit is usually my go-to method—but I guess this place is my one exception.

[rollplayinghouse]

Yeah.
