Game 002 [Action] - Apparently Rainbow Wings Attract Attention

[neverplaysfair]

[ Hello, Luceti. Have a Joshua slowly wandering through the village. He keeps looking about and glancing to a piece of paper he's holding, which if you manage to inspect it, has a crudely-drawn map on it. He's heading towards Community Housing #5, so feel free to intercept him at any point. ]

Death doesn't... what's that mean?

You haven't heard of this yet? You can come back, here. You lose something -- entry fee, you could say -- but... you can come back.

[neverplaysfair]

... I guess that would eliminate the need for a UG.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

Should be a UG, either way. Should be a UG and a Noise plane and all the rest of it, no matter the city or the extenuating circumstances. That's just how our world works.

Guess some places run differently, though -- I even met an angel yesterday who told me Heaven is a big peaceful forest with lotsa weird plants.

[neverplaysfair]

So if, theoretically, this was a Ruled Space... it would be the plane that we're in now that would be controlled, right? Since it's the only one that exists.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

Sounds about right.

[neverplaysfair]

... I'm going to claim it.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

'Scuze me?

There's a bunch of all-powerful scientists with wings running around -- that doesn't make you think it might already be claimed?

[neverplaysfair]

Can you sense anyone? This place may have people running it, but I can't feel any claim on it. No Composer. [ He grins. ] Yet.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

Alright, alright. Sounds like a decent goal, anyway.

I'd rather get home to Shibuya, myself.

[neverplaysfair]

Of course. But as long as we can't, we may as well try... alternate methods.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

Mmhm. Just try not to, y'know, die.

[neverplaysfair]

[ A shrug ] What's the danger if I do, really?

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

You'd come back missing a limb or a sense or maybe a gun, that's all.

[neverplaysfair]

... That sounds unpleasant.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

Very.

[neverplaysfair]

Fine. I suppose I'll do my best not to die in the endeavor.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

Though it would be kinda interesting and dramatic.

[neverplaysfair]

Only to come back one week later? Ruins the dramatics of death a bit if no one stays dead.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

Got a point there. I'd play it up for you, if you want, all poetic and all -- poor brave Joshua, gone down in the line of duty, et cetera. Maybe Phones would cry.

[neverplaysfair]

Neku? He never cried for anyone but himself.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

Aw, that could change! You never know.

[neverplaysfair]

Then play it up as much as you like, and tell me about it when I come back.

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

Will do.

[neverplaysfair]

I wonder if he'd hate me again for it.
