Judith's heart

[dramatispersonae]

[when you wake up, you find yourself in what looks like a field. Tall grass obscures most of your vision, aside from the two doors.

One has a neat path that leads to it, though it seems to rest against nothing but air. The other is in your more immediate vicinity. This door is large and opposing, and there is a thick sheet of ice resting in front of it, larger than the door.

Off to the side a bit is an aberration in the grass. This grass seems lower than everything else. In front of you, there is a sign. The sign points to the first door saying, "The way", and to the second door saying, "Not the way".

Aside from this, there is nothing in your immediate vicinity. In the distance, there are mountains, though they look stormy, almost as if they are on fire.]

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

Another one has some tools on it, they might look a little familiar to you, or like an attempt at tools that might look familiar to you. Plus some clothes. Those clothes look cute, actually...

There is one that is partway made, like someone dashed out of it in the morning without looking back. There are snacks tucked in various parts of the covers, and a card peeks out from under the pillow.

Another has sets of knives, and furs on top of it, so there's no way to tell what the bed looks like underneath.

And the final one has a bunch of flowers around it.

There are some coins peeking out of the covers...]

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

Mmm, the one with the snacks and the card must be Red's. And, of course, the bonnet. Okay, now I definitely know this is Judy, like the cabin wasn't enough of a hint. Hi, Judy!

[what kinds of tools are we talking?]

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[dramatispersonae]

FUTURISTIC wrenches, and of course space lasers. There may even be a laser pen. ... And of course a digital dictionary of space lingo.

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

Oh, I think this one's mine! [going through the clothes, holding some up to her]

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[dramatispersonae]

They are all Sapphire themed, and a bit showy with skin. But they sure look like they'd be cute on you.

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

[putting some on]

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[poker_face]

[AND SUDDENLY, a Judith!]

Oooh, cute!

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

Hi! [waves, and twirls around] Thank you for these!

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[poker_face]

Oh, you're welcome. I thought you'd look cuter in something besides the typical uniform for awhile.

I'm glad I was right.

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

[hugs her] I missed skirts, so much!

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[poker_face]

Really?

[FILING THAT KNOWLEDGE AWAY while returning the hug]

What other things do you typically wear?

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

Lots! I mean, there's my work uniform, but that's a uniform, even if it's pretty cute for one, and then there's that one shirt I have, that bares my shoulders, and... [insert more clothes description here, generally pretty chic]

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[poker_face]

[GOSH SHE SHOULD HAVE HAD A NOTEPAD ABOUT THIS]

Now I want some of that for myself!

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

Quest time?

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[poker_face]

It really is! I still need to finish my quest with Citrine though.

But... What are you doing here?

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

This guy - not Dream, he looked like someone else - sent us in here. According to him, there's something in you that shouldn't be. We have to find it and- Well, I don't know what it's going to be like, but I'm not letting anything take over my friend!

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[poker_face]

Oh, you know, I felt something like that as well. It's a little strange, isn't it?

But if you need anything in the mean time, don't be afraid to ask me.

[there is a sudden burst of smoke coming from the trapdoor in the center]

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

Of course.

[jumps at the burst] What was that?

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[dramatispersonae]

Judith looks a little confused, however, there is another snap. It sounds like it's in the immediate vicinity, but the only sign it happened is the smoke continuing to pour out of the trap door, even though it's closed.

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

I wonder if the smoke is what's wrong...

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[dramatispersonae]

It might be worth checking out. Because it is not getting any better.

Behind her, Judith is now incapacitated with coughing.

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[maidofmagdalene]

Here. [whips a sheet off her own bed and tosses it to Judith] Breathe through that. Get it wet first, if you can. It won't stop the smoke forever, but it should help.

I'm going in. [to the trapdoor and down]

Re: SAPPHIRE, the mountains

[dramatispersonae]

That will surely help Judy.
