Yato's Heart

[dramatispersonae]

A strong power flows through you as a light overtakes you, almost overwhelmingly so. But is this light? Is this darkness? Where do you belong? You feel a sense of chaos swarming inside of your heart, telling you over and over, destroy destroy destroy destroy.

This is who I am.

That is the truth. That’s what you are meant to do. Your rule is absolute. You are a god, aren’t you? There is no wrong in what you decide to do. That is what it means to be a god.

But I still want to change!

The Guides

[dramatispersonae]

[The light starts to dim and you find yourself inside of a hallway, with two figures standing in your presence, a young girl and ayoung boy. They’re both standing in front of two open corridors, blocking you from leaving your spot.

On the left side, the young girl is standing in front of an entrance that clearly turns into darkness, too dark for you to see what lies beyond.

On the right side, the young boy is standing in front of an entrance that clearly turns into light, too bright for you to see what lies beyond.]

...Is this some sort of 'choose between good and evil' thing?

Re: The Guides

[dramatispersonae]

It's a pain in the ass, that's what it is.

Re: The Guides

[grade3enabler]

Since you probably work here, I'm going to take your word for it.

Re: The Guides

[crueltobekind]

. . . Not very subtle, is he?

Re: The Guides

[dramatispersonae]

It's annoying, isn't it?

Re: The Guides

[crueltobekind]

And kind of funny. I bet the dark path is just people picking on him.

Hi there.

What's this?

Light (Change)

[dramatispersonae]

At some point, you must have passed out because you'll suddenly find yourself waking up on a bench by an empty bus stop, with a newspaper draped over you. Were you always this homeless? Inside your pocket, you’ll discover you suddenly have a cell phone which you can navigate through including twitter and a contact list. If you’re technologically illiterate, I'm sorry. You could always walk down the street or something.

You also have a bottle of coins on your person and a blue, tattered scarf that smells kinda bad. Really bad. It's got alcohol stains on it.

[crueltobekind]

[Oh my god. Oh my god!!

RIPS THE SCARF OFF AND THROWS IT DOWN.







and I guess eventually checks the contacts on the phone after the initial sheer horror of his situation wears off]

Darkness (Truth)

[dramatispersonae]

You find yourself standing in an empty street, a sword in hand. This seems a little strange, doesn’t it? Well, considering blood is dripping from the blade, yes that is probably really, really strange. Oh, also the dead body in front of you. That’s a thing.

You can feel the sharp pain of resigned sadness lingering within your chest. It’s not quite guilt, but there is reluctance in your hand. A flashing image of Algae goes through your eyes before it fades just as quickly.

In the distance, there is a large shrine. In the opposite direction, you can hear a bell.

Re: Darkness (Truth)

[grade3enabler]

[...things I did not expect from Algae: any of this.]

[cautiously taking a look at the dead body...]

Re: Darkness (Truth)

[dramatispersonae]

[His ears have been cleanly sliced off and his eyes gouged out. Each finger has been cut off individually, and he's got several slices amongst his back, bleeding heavily.

Was it torture . . . ?]

Re: Darkness (Truth)

[grade3enabler]

[...what the fuck, Algae???]

[keeping the sword in his hand anyway, and slowly making his way towards the shrine]

[your shriek echos throughout the neighborhood, but it goes away soon enough]

Re: Darkness (Truth)

No! Yato.

Light (Happiness)

[dramatispersonae]

At the end of the street, you can see it running through a forest with a bit of a clearing inside. If you continue to follow it, you'll find yourself standing in front of an old-fashioned home where you can tell nature and time has worn it down significantly. It's been around for quite some time! Still, it is clean and well taken care of, with flowers growing bright and tall. They are a multitude of colors, some with Peridot green mixed in.

The sliding door to the house is wide open.

Re: Light (Happiness)

[crueltobekind]

[DARTS INTO THE HOUSE and closes the door behind him. Just in case crazy mystery number lady comes by.]

Re: Light (Happiness)

[dramatispersonae]

[Inside the house, you feel a strange warmth inside. There are several pictures on the wall along with shelves filled with different kind of knickknacks. There's a kitchen nearby and a kotatsu right in the center. There's also a set of stairs.

It's a simple home, but you feel happy to be here.]

[Glances uneasily at the door one last time before heading over to check out the pictures]
