Erika heart

[dramatispersonae]

You get the sense that you pass through a door, but it shuts immediately behind you. However, when you look back, there is nothing but a dead end wall behind you. There is carpet is lush beneath your feet, and the corners are free of dust. Except for the lack of any actual entrance, it could easily be the entranceway of a lavish mansion.

Any magical or otherwise supernatural abilities you have are disabled.

[The lattice supports your weight now, but you get the strong feeling that if you lie while on it, you'll fall.]

Well, I would hope so.

*making her way over*

Not that you make it easy! It helps that I like you.

[As you get closer to Erika, you can see that her looks are somewhat in the uncanny valley. She seems almost like a doll, and you can almost make out joints at her wrists... Are those marionette strings, just barely catching the light? But it's hard to notice unless you're paying close attention.]

Even if you lied, I'd discover the truth.

You keep me on my toes ♥ To a certain extent.

*she's heading over to join her in the middle, anyway; peers at her . . .*

Hm.

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Yes?

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[aprettygirl]

What would happen if these strings were cut?

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[thinkoutsidethebox]

I don't know.

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[aprettygirl]

Would you like to find out?

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[thinkoutsidethebox]

I don't know. It might be beneficial, but it might equally well destroy my very existence.

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[aprettygirl]

Ahahaha.

If you have the means, are you able to choose for yourself? Whether or not to cut. To find the truth of who you are without your strings.

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[thinkoutsidethebox]

...Hmph. As things are now, I might have the power to.

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[aprettygirl]

I think . . . I would like to see that.

*offers her a knife.*

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[thinkoutsidethebox]

... [accepts it]

Then perhaps we'll see.

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[aprettygirl]

*straightens up!*

I quite like you, Furudo Erika. You are not the easiest person to live with, but I do. That's a truth I wished to say to your face.

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[thinkoutsidethebox]

Hmph. Well, you can do what you like.

Re: THE INNER CAVERN

[aprettygirl]

Mm, I will. I'll see you around.

*gives her a little salute and makes her way back.*
