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.

[ JESUS FUCK ]

C!!!

[neigh_sayer]

Heeeeey, Intensity! I'm here, aren't you surprised?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Yes! Why are you here?

You're retired!

[neigh_sayer]

Am I not allowed to take vacations? And from the looks of things maybe I should come out of retirement!

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

What is that supposed to mean?!

[neigh_sayer]

Someone's been working so hard it's becoming super duper routine! Are you bored, Intensity?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Trust me. Bored is the last adjective I would used to describe the current state of things.

[neigh_sayer]

Ooooh? Then give me the scoop! You're the one that asked me to come here, after all.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Did I? That sounds like me.

...

Did you read the BIOS?

[neigh_sayer]

Nope. This might feel real to you, but I'm fairly sure this is a game.

And I don't like using a cheat sheet in this kind of setting. But do tell.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Is it a game now?

Well then, I'll choose my words carefully... not at all because the producers already know.

I need to move up my time table to go after my brother. Surely that's the move they want me to play after dangling him in front of me.

So no.

I'm not bored right now.

[neigh_sayer]

But on the flip side, if they used him as bait, that means they're probably scared. You have a loooot of influence, y'know? You'll never bend and do something as simply graduating.


But, hm. If you're not bored, then something else is missing.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

And what makes you say that?

[neigh_sayer]

Because the Intensity I know wouldn't pull me from an imaginary paradise unless it was important.

Unless you just missed meeeeeee!

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Of course I'd miss you.

Don't be dense.

[neigh_sayer]

I wasn't really expecting any actual feelings so let's just breeze by that.


Topic change, why do you need to reboot yourself, that was super duper freaky.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

King of the Nerds is full of computer analogies. Shocking, I know.

How else do you handle changes in course?

...

[ And then. As an afterthought. ]

Did you change anything?

[neigh_sayer]

I dunno, by turning? But I guess that's not a boring way of doing it.

[and just! smiles innocently!]

Whaaaaat? Me? No way! I'd neeeever meddle in your affairs! Blue Eyes would have super scolded me!
