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?

Monday
[ c-ta will be training with his sword early monday! he's not...really sure where he's going with it, but he figures that just getting used to moving with the sword is a good start. he slashes the air with a mix of anger and determination, too focused to actually notice anyone that might be coming in.
that said, he's absolutely willing to having a partner. or just someone to talk to. ]
tower
[ late in the evening though, c-ta can be found in the tower. while he genuinely doesn't like being alone with his thoughts, so much has happened that he...wants to have some time on his own to stare at the stars. he's not even sure why there are stars here, considering where they are...
but as soon as he hears someone approaching, he turns toward them, raising an eyebrow. ]
Here to watch the stars?
Sparring~
[Said from right behind C-ta]
no subject
[ he spins on his heel, staring at gin with wide eyes. ]
Gin-san⦠how long have you been there?
tower
Here to see you of course
no subject
Really, now? [ he huffs, amused ] Alright. We can call it a date.
[ ⦠]
And, uh⦠I guess you have questions after that⦠meeting. I can, um, try to answerā¦them.
[ heās so embarrassed already. ]
no subject
I'm happy
[Stargazing is romantic...]
Why were you worried about Tenn
Was there something I did?
no subject
[ pointing out your own flaws is HARD, c-ta is learning. ]
W-well⦠I didnāt⦠have much of a chance to communicate with you. I mean, Tenn didnāt do anything wrong and neither did you. Itās just⦠well⦠you know when you get a really stupid idea?
[ heās going in circles. send help. ]
no subject
no subject
[ uhhhh ]
Okay, so I thought that Tenn would have been trying to⦠um⦠maybegetinthewayofusorsomethingandIgotjealous.
[ kill him void-chan ]
no subject
Like as some kind of convoluted revenge plan or something?
He doesn't hate you anymore
no subject
[ more like tenn would just realize that suga didnāt need to be going after someone like him butā ]
Excuse me?
no subject
But hate is exhausting
I don't think he'll ever like you but he doesn't hate you now
no subject
[ said almost on reflex, said with more annoyance than hatred. ouch, he doesnāt like being told that heās not liked. ]
It would probably be easier for him to just hate me. Let me have the complicated emotions or whatever.
no subject
Everyone's got feelings and they're complicated
I'm with you as long as you'll have me, C-ta
You don't have to worry about anyone else
no subject
[ grumbles!!! he sits down on the floor of the tower. standing up too hard. ]
I know that⦠but⦠I guess I just⦠thought you could do better than me. That you should do better than me.
no subject
I don't want to
You make me happier than anyone
no subject
he sighs sulkily, kissing the top of his forehead. ]
Iāll do my best. To make you as happy as possible.
[ ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ ]
And for what itās worth, I donāt hate Tenn either.
no subject
Suga smiles and steals a quick kiss on the lips.]
I'm happy to hear that
He's my friend
I know you don't really like the friends of the person you like but you're going to have to get used to that
no subject
[ huffs!? ]
no subject
no subject
very softly: ]
No.
no subject
It's okay, C-ta
I understand what kind of person you are and I love you anyway
no subject
[ pouts?! ]
Ugh⦠I spent my whole life trying to fit in and live life in balance and, ugh, look where Iām at now!
no subject
As long as you behave I'm not going to get mad at you for having feelings like that
no subject
Iāll do my best. [ still pouting. he doesnāt want suga to get mad at him. ]
