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.]

Hmm. So it'll be even harder to beat possibly. [ This meeting is going wonderfully. ]

A well laid plan with as many facts as possible does wonders, especially if the monster is gettin' careless. [A pensive glance over their group] Some contingency plans might have to suffice, we don't have enough time to be that thorough.

[ She nods. ] Drastic measures I guess. Though if we have to rely on the living..... I don't know.

[ Are they suppose to have any faith in them after all this? ]

[Relying on anyone else like this really isn't his style...]

If everything ends soon, perhaps there's no point in censoring ourselves in letters? If we're able ta send more.

[Maybe if they just take decision making out of the livings' hands (minus Tenn)]
lastreward: (ummmmm)

Hmm. Maybe.... I'm not sure? It's all on Ferry what they're letting go through after all.

[ She's... quite tired of the trying to hide messages carefully too. ]

I wouldn't even probably send anything useful if we do.

You're right... It's more than the livin' can take if we send them somethin' coded at this point. [At least, that's from what he could tell with how much the newly dead are not the grateful dead when they get the graveyard's messages.]

Somethin' to ask Ferry-san then.
lastreward: (do you love it)

[personal profile] lastreward 2021-07-12 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
I'd probably only say goodbye.

[ because if she can, she intends to leave immediately. And the only one she'd say goodbye to is Tenn. ]
