GRAVEYARD - END GAME

GY FAQ

Weeks 2-5

Weeks 6-7

Friday

It's been a long stay.

Seven weeks have elapsed since the gates to Aira Niluc were opened to guests of various worlds, and for seven weeks a game of trust and betrayal have whittled the living's numbers down until only a mere third remained on that side. And in exchange, the population of the dead grew as they continued their story on this side.

But the story is coming to a close, almost as if the world itself demands it.

Because sometime Friday morning, oddities start to become apparent within the fabric of this space: buildings starting to deteriorate as their colors start to fade, foods beginning to molder and rot, trees and mountains far in the background flickering briefly show sketch-like outlines before reverting back to normal. While most of the main locations remain fairly intact, there is no area on this side that lays untouched by the sense that this place is starting to unravel, bit-by-bit.

Still, the walls that separate you all from the living hold fast even now, not allowing any of the dead to cross through into the other side.

Perhaps that's not the point here, though. After all, you all still have your own ending to write, here and now.

[ c-ta you're talking to someone who does math for fun, are you really expecting anything other than: ]

Anything follows a logic path if you scrutinise it closely enough, Yuuta.

[ huffs! ]

[mearry]

[ okay that gets a tired laugh out of him ]

I'd like to see that on my next biology test then. A fire-breathing moth...

[mathodical]

[ tired finger wagging because adrenaline crashing is real - he's just trying to stay awake so he can watch the rift otherwise he'd have passed out by now ]

Apologies, can't help you there, I don't set the biology tests.

[mearry]

Math...right?

[ eh. he's had enough of pre-calculus and geometry and whatever but...he misses school. he misses having an ordinary life. ]

Were you still a professor...? Before you died?

[mathodical]

[ that gets a quiet but maybe slightly melancholic laugh out of william and maybe a slight pause. ]

Something like that. I think the university might have fired me before then on account of being a named mass murderer. I wasn't really paying attention.

[mearry]

That sucks...

[ he sounds like he means it, too. ]

You sound like you would have been a cool professor.

[mathodical]

I'd like to think so.

[ he actually sounds faintly amused. ]

I miss teaching, I'd like to go back to it someday, I think.

[ he actually looks like he's about to? reach out? and maybe ruffle c-ta's hair? but he's not going to because he's too tired. ]

[mearry]

Do it, then.

[ he glances towards moriarty, a small smile on his face. ]

If you're gonna die in your world...maybe ask to go to someone else's.

[mathodical]

...

[ but does someone else's world have sherlock :( ]

I'll think about it.

[mearry]

Please do.

[ it's a quiet request. ]

I'm sure someone would open their doors for you. I'll even open mine...though I don't think I'll be there myself.
