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. ]

...

Well, it's like that everywhere, isn't it?

[neverplaysfair]

It is. Do you just avoid those who aren't nice?

What have you done.

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

You can't run forever.

Josh is just being Josh. That alone causes calamity sometimes, doesn't it...

[neverplaysfair]

Did you try?

She was doing so well too. Figures. I love Josh though. <3

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

For a while.

...Things were just worse than before.

... Uh oh, is he breaking another one? XD

[neverplaysfair]

Did it get better when you stopped running?

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

I don't know.

[And she settles back against a wall or a tree or something before giving him an odd smile]

I left before I could figure it out.

[neverplaysfair]

Is it a relief to not have to know?

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

...Not really.

But there's nothing I can do here.

[neverplaysfair]

... Did you stop running before, or after you got here?

Yeah, he's breaking her. :<

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

[She gives a strange, nervous sort of laugh before continuing]

Is it really that interesting?

... I'm sorry~! Josh isn't, though...

[neverplaysfair]

There's no point if you only stopped running because what you wanted to escape was taken away.

Fff, don't apologize. <3 It's fun to play her split personality. XD

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

...I stopped running long ago. I had to.

But it was useless in the end. [And she turns away at that]

I can still hear Him behind me, waiting for the time of my atonement.

[neverplaysfair]

[ His eyes narrow ] ... Hear who?

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

[And you've started it. Good god how did this happen.]

Oyashiro-sama.

[neverplaysfair]

[ Now isn't this interesting... ]

Oh? Who's Oyashiro?

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

The God of Hinamizawa. Defy Him and suffer His curse.

[neverplaysfair]

A god, hmm? Sounds scary. What must you make amends for?

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

I left.

[neverplaysfair]

That's all?

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

You can't leave. It's taboo.

....Everything that happened afterward was merely my punishment.

[neverplaysfair]

Why did you leave, then?

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

Ignorance.

[neverplaysfair]

And in that ignorance, you ran from your retribution.

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

I couldn't run. I only thought I could. Life after that...was just one tragedy after another. It never stopped.
