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.

[ At this point, it's just Man Eater here, and any fun he might have had dropping Lucifel into the snake pit dies when he sees the dead Intensity. ] What the---?

[sancrimony]

Eeexcuse me . . .

[ with a tip of his head ]

Could you call a member of pep!pep!, please?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Yeah sure. [ And he pulls out his phone, dialing someone. ] Can you come down here. Now.

[ A few seconds later, the elevator behind Lucifel dings. Where it came from, nobody knows. Cobalt steps out. ] Hey, where's the fire---? [ And takes one look at the dead body ] Holy smoke! There's the fire!

[sancrimony]

Hello. I'm not really certain what happened, but I found him, so I brought him here. . . !

[ p. pats intensicorpse ]

1/2

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Good call. Let me take care of that right away! [ And bibbidi babbidi boo (this is how Intensity thinks pep!pep! powers work) HE LIIIIIIIIIIVES ]

2/3 I lied

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ And congratulations, Lucifel. You are the proud owner of one (1) Day 47 old Intensity.

You know what that means?

The last thing he probably remembers about you is the time he offered to give you (and Persephone) his first born to heal Nemesis after Mukuro's game.

Aaaaaah, the memories ]

Where am----

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

WHY THE FUCK AM I BACK IN THE DORMS?

[ Whirls on Cobalt ]

Did you fuck this up?

[sancrimony]

[ hm ]

Oh - oh my, goodness. No, that was my fault.

[ with a little wave ]

Good morning, Intensity-sama.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ Whirls around to Lucifel ]

How is this your fault?

Who told you?

[sancrimony]

Nobody told me to do anything. But, since I found your body, I decided to bring you somewhere where you could be healed.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Found my body? I was in an abandoned building in the middle of no where! How did you---

[ And then.

Wait for it ]

Where the fuck is this?

[sancrimony]

If I had to say, probably -

It's "the interior of your soul"?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ The what now?








He makes a noise much like a balloon deflating. Please. Please, sir. He's just an amnesia baby. ]

[sancrimony]

Er -

[ oh dear ]

You can think of it like a dream. It's not particularly relevant to you, in any case.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

If it's my dream, then of course it's relevant to me.

[ But that also means... ]

So am I still dead in the waking world, or---?

[sancrimony]

No, you're very much alive. Asleep, but alive.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I see.



[ And just kind of slumps against the wall ]

She's not going to give me anything for this botched job. Fuck!

[sancrimony]

[ . . .

. . .

. . . ]

The Mother of Monsters?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ Just stares at Lucifel blankly ]

Who?

1/2

[sancrimony]

[ "who"

. . .

. . .

"day 47"

. . .

. . . ]

[sancrimony]

[ with a smile, ]

Oh, my apologies. It seems you aren't ready for that knowledge yet. Please, feel free to ignore me.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ Stares at Lucifel for a long moment and then just sighs. ]

Fine. Whatever.

[ And he turns toward the door to FiN. STILL DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THIS HALLWAY IS FOR. Also why is Man Eater here?

But he knows the entrance to FiN when he sees it ]

Come in.

I'll make you a coffee.

[[ To the FiN Common Room if you so desire ]]
