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?

I will put it this way: Hamelin called Ferry something like a consigliere, a chessmaster who likes to move others to do her bidding. He told us not to trust her. Her merchandise is fine, of course.

But otherwise, quite a bad idea.

Hm. He [and thus Jack] would know best, then. When we're done here, you're gonna explain some more, correct? Getting out seems more pertinent.

[He gets not telling people!! It's just also something that might have been nice to know, say, an hour or so before this shitshow]

Indeed. It just seemed like bad manners to lay out all of Ferry's dirty laundry in front of her.

[That, and he wasn't in the mood to be all that forthcoming back then. A combination of factors, but all of this certainly takes more precedence. As he told Gin, cooperation, survival, whatever. He's here for it.

Also how was he supposed to know this was going to be a shitshow! He's new!!!]

[Embrace the catyard learning curve!!]

We can find a more private venue to speak after this.
