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?

Th-that would be good, actually. Having a good base would be a good start.

[Which she'll go ahead and lead him through, where his legs should be, the best holds on the grip, examples of moves open to him with each one.]

[ c-ta is, perhaps surprisingly enough, a quick learner. he's both athletic and generally smart. this is nothing like gym class, of course, so it's not exactly perfect. but after some tries he's capable of making the correct stances, albeit with not that much confidence yet. ]
God, you make it look so easy...

[She should probably be good at this much.]
Now, can you try executing some of those moves on me? I'll be sure to block, so don't worry about holding back!

c-ta nods, readying his stance before he lunges at her, pushing his dagger to aim at her stomach. ]

[ she definitely gets him, his hand knocked upwards as the dagger threatens to slip out of his hand. he maintains his grip just barely, but he jumps back to take that half a second to regrip the dagger properly and going back for another slash, this time downwards. ]

That's a good start! You did a good job recovering.
