Taisuke's heart

[dramatispersonae]

There's something humming inside of you, a strange new power etches itself into your heart, something you can't quite sense what it is but can feel it's importance. An endless sea of stars stretches before you, shining brightly, but despite the beauty of the scene there's a yearning deep in your gut. You need to go, you need more, you need to move. As if in answer, one light shines brightly in the distance and calls you forward, blinding you as you reach towards it--

[The hallway starts crumbling behind her, televisions crashing to the ground just as she escapes. You now have some choppy wave ground to navigate, everything feels cold and strangely empty.]

[ She takes her time going through them, poking at them if she can. ]

I wonder why they're frozen....

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

[Despite being ice, despite the cold around her, the waves are warm to the touch.]

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

[ What if she....leans on it....breathes on it? Don't mind her she's being weird. ]

[The pressure doesn't do anything, she can't mist it up with her breath, it's like it's there but not affected by reality.]

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

You're waves. Behave like it.

[ and she sits back, glaring at them for a bit before giving them a little kick with her foot. ]

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

[When she kicks it there is a loud, pained scream.]

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

[ WHOA NOT AS INTENDED ]

You should really know better!

[ and then hesitates before...hugging the wave in apology ]

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

[Nope the screaming is still there, angrier this time, and coming from farther away, it's on the move.]

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

[ Then she's letting go and immediately following that noise. ]

Come back!

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

...Hello?

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

Hey. It's Annabeth. Where are you going?

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

Annabeth... help...

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

Where are you? I'll help you. Tell me what to do.

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

Help!

[It's not moving anymore, it doesn't sound too far away.]

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

[ welllllp I am running towards it then. ]

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

[I'M BLEEDING FROM MY EVERYWHERE]

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

[ D: OH NO ]

Fire!

[ what even what. what!! ]

What happened -- hold on-- [ I will rip my awful wonderland shirt into bandages '-' ]

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

[Grabs her wrist, squeezing tight. His legs are bent at odd angles, his arms practically shredded, there are lines of deep scars over his cheek spreading down to his neck and it looks like something ripped a hole in his chest.]

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

[ She's stopped, then-- instead she tries to look into his eyes, steadying herself mentally. But it's clear she's angry that this happened in the first place. ]

Who did this to you? ...what caused this?

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

Messing with hearts... is a really stupid idea.

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

[ she hesitates, then nods. ]

It is. I didn't know I was going to hurt you. That any of this was going to happen.

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

I know, nobody meant to, but... Damn it. Can you help me up?

Re: The other half of the story

[divinewisdom]

Sure.

[ Supporting him and helping him to his feet, then. ]

Is there anything else I can do?

Re: The other half of the story

[heroic_homemaker]

[Cries out, standing on those legs hurts, but he's trying to stumble forward.]

We need to get up there- He's killing them!
