Heart Game: Intensity (Turn 4)
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.

[ she'd laugh about getting slashed at if she wasn't frozen in place watching some bullshit happen that she's going to slap him for later. and people get on her case for killing herself... or, like, actively talking about. HYPOCRITES, ALL OF YOU. as soon as she gets back she's going to off herself and punch lilith before anybody can take that away from her! ]
[ except not she's getting spear'd. so... now she does start laughing, loudly. is this still a dream? a nightmare? she's getting sick of this. ]

What now, D.Va?
What now? ]
no subject
[ she just needs a second or two...
to prep for battle, y'know, like any sane person would. ]
no subject
But something like that isn't going to last long.
Hope you have a plan B ]
cw; gore and craziness
[ all the while she's laughing, and loudly, her tentacles thrashing about wildly behind her, because they're not sure what the fuck is going on right now. ] I'm your nightmare, [ she grits her teeth, huffing and puffing, because this still fucken hurts, but, as a result, she feels so much better; like she were, oh, say~, stronger & faster. ]
I'm going to fuck you up for fucking with my boss. [ she's aiming to do enough damage to herself to get her heart weapon, but if she didn't, then she'll certainly engage the nightmare with her bloody spear. ]
cw; gore and craziness
Clearly this was the correct powerset to give to D.Va.
So.
Where are you aiming? ]
Re: cw; gore and craziness
YOUR NUMBER IS UP, BITCH. ]
[ she's aiming for that hole it calls a face. ]
[ time to fill it with something... SWORDS&SPEARS. ]
Re: cw; gore and craziness
But it doesn't seem to be able to fend off the sword as it sinks right in between the eyes.
Screeching, it reaches out to claw at D.Va's neck with its talons. ]
Re: cw; gore and craziness
no wonder intensity hates it. ]
[ she seems a bit miffed about losing the spear, but she's still got her heart weapon, so she's going to channel all of her hatred ( and it's A LOT ) into it as she tries to slice up this glorified garbage disposal. ]
[ her laughter is stunted at the claw around her neck, but she's still sporting a pair of mcfucken crazy eyes. she coils her tail around its claw and tries to force it away as the tentacles all start wrapping around the stupid thing. ]
Re: cw; gore and craziness
[ Well.
Well, that is certainly something.
Its head is literally going to explode from impact of the Heart Weapon. Which leaves its claws to uselessly cut across D.Va's skin as the shadow sinks to the floor and start melting.
Congratulations.
You won.
But at what cost? (To yourself anyway. This is a win for Intensity's soul) ]
Re: cw; gore and craziness
[ sits there for a few moments, because she needs to recollect her sani- ahahahaha. that's fucken gone. getting to her feet she staggers, turning back to the collection of objects that had been displayed. ]
[ what's still here? she's going to touch it all. ]

A single blank Yugioh trading card with no image
[ You see the image of this man, golden eye glowing with a mysterious power. You feel a sense of loss, of failure. Weighing down your soul. You hear a voice calling for help that you will never be able to answer. Someone crying.
And then there is a tearing sensation. Your soul being ripped from your body.
And you think to yourself - yes. You deserve this. ]
An Oujia board marked Day 25
"I demand the right to restore my honor!"
"Think you owe me that race before she gets one, honestly."
"Don't look excited about that!"
[ You accept the challenge - a race with paladins, how bad can it be? And you roll a nat 0. (Not even a nat 1). In layman's terms that means you lose big time despite Mori's pleas and efforts to save you. And there is a searing pain as your soul is forcibly removed from your body.
Though you don't remember it, this is also not the first time this has happened. ]
A bloody pentagram drawn directly onto table marked Day 25
"Hey, hey, hey, hey, don't be so rude, mister! Feelings are gonna get hurt. Along with some other stuff."
[ And then you get hit in the face with a shovel.
You don't remember anything that happens after that.
Except Angel crying over your dead body (as you watch this memory play out through eyes not your own). Your body slumped over a pentagram drawn in your own blood.
She gets to her feet, brandishing a knife.
If anyone tries to hurt you again, you fucking stab them. ]
A manila folder marked Day 68
Boss: FiN doesn't really fit with the venturing away from unit pattern
Boss: but maybe something else within that concept?
Boss: I told 99 to stick close to Intensity to see if he can suss out anything, but idk if he was told about the Mukuro info
Boss: think I should ping him to see if he can see anything on his end?
Boss: King says Hurricane tends to spend time with Nemesis and he wasn't at the dorms last night
Boss: also that Hiryuu has connections off-unit but they tend to come over more frequently than she goes over
Boss: FiN's still the odd man out
Boss: and it's pissing me off
[ Shogun smiles at you: ]
I do like damning evidence.
[ You die anyway. And when you come to you realize you lost more than the standard fare of games. This time the Producers ripped something out of you permanently. ]
A sniper rifle marked Day 78
[ This is so undignified. Being shaken like a ragdoll in the desert by Yugi of all people as he slowly zaps the life out of you bit by bit. ]
"I want to hear you say it, Intensity, tell me how you killed King!"
[ You never see the sniper or the bullet.
But you're thankful for it all the same. ]
A metallic collar with a device attached marked Day 86
What are your thoughts on ☆ZRAEL?
"Umm . . . I wouldn't be upset . . ."
That doesn't sound like you'd be happy either.
"Oh no, no, I would be happy! After all, some of my bestest friends are on there . . . I was just surprised for some reason . . ."
Think we wouldn't want to protect them?
"Huh? Oh no, I am sure you would protect everyone if you could. I guess it is my own feeling . . ."
You're so charitable, Angel. I absolutely would not protect everyone. Some are perfectly capable of fending for themselves.
[ You and yours die. And they're devastated.
But at least (finally) you got to protect what was yours. ]
A single floating balloon marked Day 111
[[Imagine this font is electric blue.]] "Aah. We try our best to protect ourselves first and foremost."
"Silence is not afraid of death. It is not that. No. Nobody else on this unit should have to endure anything like that again!"
"It's heavy to think that you're all on your own."
"We likewise always have a chance we're going to push someone over the edge, and I'd prefer it to be strategic."
"As your mother, your safety is always my first concern."
[ But in the end it didn't even matter. You couldn't protect any of them. ]
A bone ring
Oh, the True Darkness knows who I am. I'm flattered. And same. I was hoping for a location a little more suited to my tastes.
"We're both disappointed then. I don't much find prematurity charming, really. And I was hoping for a man a little smarter than. Well."
A fair and solid blow to my pride. I guess I'll have to make it up to you somehow. Come to take your pound of flesh? From those of us that still have anything left to give.
"If you can afford to leave things like that, then there won't be any need from me."
And if that were the case, then you wouldn't be here. So should I be grateful as well as flattered?
"You aren't so important, dear. I just happen to be in the neighborhood. But I'll do a favor for your motley crew just this once - and we can say you owe me one. How about it?"
You drive a hard bargain. That is to say I have little if any bargaining power of my own. So sure. What's adding a favor to our gracious Lady Death on top of everything else that's happened today?
"Pleasure doing business with you."
A jeweled ring marked Day 155
[ There's the handle of a spear pressed against your throat and you can't breath, even as wood splinters into your palms as you try to push it away.
The person above you shushes you with kind words and a kinder expression, even as the pressure mounts. Ssshh. Ssshhh. It's okay, It's okay, It's okay.
Ssh ssh it's all gonna be fine, they can dwell in madness together, them and the others and all the ghosts in the house.
Eventually.
Everything goes dark. ]
There are two exits: [ In front of you and behind you ]
