Heart Game: Intensity (Turn 4)

[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.

[ Catches it, looking mildly surprised. ]

Why did you keep this?

[420blazeit]

Because I'm mad about it.

I'm going to get his one revived and, no, I won't send him back just yet. He can mill around with the rest of us. Then I'm going to get kid you. [ no intensity gets left behind. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ Looks at the ring for a very very long time.

Before slipping it onto his finger. ]

Why are you mad about it? I didn't have a lot of options at the time.

[420blazeit]

[ she looks mcfucken horrified. ]

...take it off. Now.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

The debt hasn't been repaid yet.

[420blazeit]

[ she grits her teeth and huffs a breath out her nose. keep. calm. breath in and out. count back from ten. ]

Not your call, Intensity. [ she attempts to march over there, but she does little marching with a corpse on her back. she also doesn't look all that imposing slouched over. ]

[ lets the dead!tensity slide to the floor and stands upright, grabbing at his wrist. ] It's mine.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ Well.

She does manage to look imposing. ]

D.Va...

[420blazeit]

[ ...good. because she's being serious right now. ]

[ she tightens her grip on his wrist and reaches for the ring. ] If you're so eager to pay a debt, then...[ smiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirks. if she can get the ring off, then guess where it's going... straight into her chest hole. ]

Intensity.
"She" is gone. "It" is also gone.

Stop.

1/2

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ Can she do that?

Is she allowed to do that?! ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

And have you pay for my mistakes? Now---

That's just not my style.

[420blazeit]

[ she shoves her heart weapon into his hands. ]

What's the old saying? An eye for an eye?

She took her pound of flesh, now why don't you take yours.

You want to pay your debt, then this is how you do it. [ her tail snaps as she says this and her tentacles remain fanned out behind her. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ He lets the blade drop to the walkway. ]

Impossible.

Hurting you will only hurt me.

Why is that so hard for you to see?

[420blazeit]

...

W- What?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Suffering is not a zero sum game.

You're increased suffering does not decrease mine. In fact, it does the fucking opposite!

So no. I'm not going to take a pound of flesh from you.

[420blazeit]

...

[ she's going to amble forward until she bumps into him, and then bring her arms up around him and just squeeze. ]

...kay. [ muffled, and probably relatively incomprehensible. ] But she's dead, and with her your debt. I don't want anything but your happiness.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Wraps his own arms around her to keep her there. There might be a little bit of a sigh.

D.Va. Please.

Love yourself.]

I never doubted that for a moment.

[420blazeit]

[ ??? ]

[ ¿¿¿ ]

[ loving one’s self,
what’s that?¿ ]

Good.

[ after a hesitant couple of seconds, ] What was that thing? And why is that you locked up?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ PALADINS!!!! ]

Hmmm.

Oh. That's who I was before I came to the production.

[420blazeit]

Hmmm? [ still not moving away from him. ]

And he’s a... danger, I’m guessing?

He wanted me to let him out, but I work for the tin can you, which, by the way, what the fuck.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[ Just laughs ]

You can't bitch at me after what you did with him.

1 / im not sure

[420blazeit]

I can bitch abou-

[420blazeit]

[420blazeit]

[ HOW THE FUCK DOES HE KNOW HE WAS IN A MOTHERFUCKEN COMA. ]

[420blazeit]

I- I don't know what you're talking about.
