GRAVEYARD PT. II

GRAVEYARD


The world is black. And then you blink at your plate.

A portion of your favorite dish greets your eyes, albeit in a form you may never have seen it in before. Encased in a thick, wobbling layer of multi-colored gelatin, the food you know and love now sits suspended in its protein-based enclosure as an eccentric re-imagining of the dish. Furthermore, it only takes a glance to see that the rest of the dining table's spread shares this same theme, as every single dish, sweet or savory, finds itself victim to a jiggling Jell-o jail.

Still, you won't have much time to take this all in before a quiet, high-pitched giggling makes its way to your ears, only crescendoing in volume the longer you sit in this oh-so-familiar dining room. It doesn't take much to find the source of the sound either; unlike the other side, this place is absolutely teeming with fairies to the point where the fluttering of their iridescent wings is clearly audible behind the din of their laughter. As you come to your senses, dozens and dozens of beady eyes watch with their tiny faces stretched out in a wide grin, before speaking in unison.

"Welcome, we can't wait to serve you!"

As the fairies erupt in raucous laughter all around you, at least one more thing is readily apparent: however you met your end, your body is completely whole again. You also have company at the table with you, although whether it's desirable company or not may depend on the circumstances surrounding your death.

In any case, there's nothing stopping anyone from leaving the dining room and roaming freely as usual, and most of the same areas that were available to you on the other side are still present here, albeit with some differences. And though your life may have been stolen from you, it still looks like you have a part in this tale, somehow, someway.

So, will you let your story finish here, or will you write your own ending?

[Welcome to the Graveyard! This is part 2 of the GY post for Weeks 6 and 7. The previous post for Weeks 2-5 is linked above. Please also view the GY doc linked above for a full rundown of the basics. You may also still submit for items and gacha rolls using the GY shop post.]

[Yor is here, too! She is Politely Looming behind the kids with two somewhat familiar needle blades on a belt looped around her waist. Although... these ones are golden in color, not iron.

Huh!

Anyway go ahead and get your talk with Samidare etc. Over with, she's here to watch everything go smoothly and maybe chat once that's over.

[Interesting though the blades may be, Raven can only picture how intimidating Yor looks and how those will probably be in his neck any minute now...

He can't say he doesn't deserve it.]
laytorest: ([Serious] It looks red)

The others have important questions about the other side, so please answer them to the best of your ability. I would hate for things to get... messy.

[Eeeek...]

I've got nothin' left ta lose, right? [Aside from maybe his ghost life? Okay that wasn't the best way to answer her.] ...I'll come clean, promise.
laytorest: ([Smile] Kappas are boiling)

Please do. As you can see [a small nod at the single bloody jello] we may not die, but we can still hurt and bleed.

[But she'll fall silent and pick up again once interrogation is over because despite all this she is still None Brains.]

[He follows Yor's gaze to the bloody jello, then looks back at her with the most questioning expression. He...sees?? (He does not see.)

He can, however, read between the lines.]


How convenient, torture'll work... N-Not that you'll need it fer me ta talk, aha...ha...

[He hates this!!]
laytorest: ([Smile] slugs in my kitchen)

[personal profile] laytorest 2021-07-05 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
I am happy to hear that.

[Still just a little overly polite.]
