Naoto's Heart

[dramatispersonae]

You find yourself falling through a black abyss, the air cold around you, although not bitingly so. Just as your eyes begin to adjust to the darkness on every side, you're dropped through a chute and tossed out into a brightly-lit area...

Yeah... hopefully that will be as straightforward as this was.

She tilts her head at him, sniffing.

"I know you."

Re: Clutter

[boxupallthebutterflies]

Mmm. [let's go~~]

[s...soothing pets?]

Re: Tools

[dramatispersonae]

She glances at both of you--or tries to, her head is tilted strangely.

"What are you trying to fix?"

Re: The Hub

[telltaleheart]

Well, it's not like the leg was "clutter." But let's try References, maybe.

Re: Tools

[uneulogized]

Yeah, what do you think I am?

Re: Clutter

[dramatispersonae]

"Go ahead."

Re: Tools

[goneastray]

S-Sleuth... ?

Re: Management

[dramatispersonae]

She snorts derisively.

"Humans don't have the potential, but I aim to change that."

Re: The Hub

[browbeater]

Where the hell am I? How do I get back to Wonderland?

Re: Tools

[dramatispersonae]

"Yes, it's me. You can come in."

Re: Tools

[uneulogized]

There's a manikin out there. It's missing parts, and we've gotta find them in different rooms.

Re: Clutter

[lifeistooshort]

I'm looking for one of two things. Body parts to help fix the manikin outside, or something that could be used as a heart.

[points at the door]

I went into management and confronted the scientist in there, but I had to use the heart from her prototype to help fix the model. I told her I'd bring back a replacement, and I want to keep my word.

Re: The Hub

[boxupallthebutterflies]

There aren't many body parts that are "clutter", unless we need to replace her appendix or something.

[...HEADING TOWARDS REFERENCES]

Re: Tools

[unionoftheheart]

[gently]

There's...a doll, near here, missing her eyes, and yours...look like hers? Missing a whole lot of things, actually, but...we all want to try to put her back together.

Re: Management

[ageplay]

Humans are greater than anything you could build.

Re: Tools

[goneastray]

[Hesitates...]

Why... why are you a cat?

Re: The Hub

[dramatispersonae]

"You got stuff you need to do first before you can go back, man." Bones sits on the table, resting his elbows on his knees.

"You're in Naoto's heart. Didn't you know?" The boy sitting down looks at him curiously.

Re: The Hub

[browbeater]

... What? No-- I had no clue!

Re: Tools

[dramatispersonae]

"I can't see very well. It's easier in a form like this, to smell and to sense."

Re: Tools

[uneulogized]

And you get them outta other moving things.

Re: Tools

[dramatispersonae]

She looks hesitant, tail puffing up a little--then relaxes.

"You can come in."

And she steps back to let them enter.

Re: Tools

[goneastray]

Oh... why are your eyes like that?

Re: Tools

[dramatispersonae]

She looks hesitant, but steps back to let him in.

"Alright. Come in."
