Welcome to Phansite archive (beta)
You'll find here all archived threads from the Phansite forum.
A Serene Dream (This segment is officially longer than the rest of my plot combined)
this is the second-to-last part of my little series, and the last that will be 100% open. That is to say, you can join in with anyone at any time.
However, this time there is one requirement to join. Simply come onto PMs and PM this account with your character’s innermost desires, what they want the world to be more than anything. Whatever it is, whether it be having a loved one back, surpassing their rivals, or even just fighting.
I am about to go on the road and as such will not be able to do this for 3-4 hours, but I think it’s worth giving people time to think about it and consider whether or not they wish to join.
For those worried about having not kept up with the story, while your character would rightfully have no clue what’s happening, here’re the first two threads for your OOC convenience
https://phansite.net/forum/topic.php?topic=11357
https://phansite.net/forum/topic.php?topic=11454
Finally, for those who have participated in one of the previous dream threads (which you can find on my profile) There are still some GMing options available for you, consider them extra scenarios. Simply tell me you’re here, go through a small set-up, and away you go. Or, you can assist another person (that is, another poster) in their dream. I’ll just need an OOC indicator of who.
*Gamma looks over to Hillock, a bit confused, he sighs and pats Hill on the shoulder*
G: Hearing what? I'm pretty sure keeping secrets is supposed to be my job. I'm the anti-social one after all.
Hill chuckled a little... yeah, Gamma couldn't be dead... that was just silly. He was one of the strongest persons he knew, apart of Robin and Nana-sama...
And yet, he was convinced that... what they told him... after the STEM incident...
The sky flitches a little, like a bug inside a game... unnoticeable for Hill, of course... but the lord of this domain should have noticed that...
Hmm... hey Gamma. The whole month I was gone... well, last time I saw you, I was at the hospital, and you made pretty clear you were going to take care of your dreads... I was wondering how did it went
Gamma sighs and shakes his head. He looks around carefully for a moment. Apparently satisfied, Gamma yawns before speaking again
G: Well, in all honesty I expected it to be a bit more eventful. Turns out it’s pretty much just a bunch of talking. *shrug* Not like there’s anything wrong with that of course.
Elsewhere, a being looks around
?: That can’t be right. What seems to be happening? No dreamer is dissatisfied...
*It's been a few weeks since Ruka found out that her boyfriend has no name. She hasn't seen him since*
Oh, well! Hahahaha... yeah, you thought it would be more physical, right?
But there are other kinds of fights, too.
We have the mental fights, verbal fights...
"Our worst battles happen inside us, not in a battlefield..." I learned that the hard way this month...
Despite the sad, melancholic tone of his last words, Hill was smiling, clearly happy
The glitch had stopped, of course... everything went back to normal. What could have happened?
Gamma begins tossing his shard of ice again as he tilts his head towards Hillock, all ears
G: You know, you can always talk to me. I’m not the best people person, but I can at least give you some straight advice. Come on, what’s been bothering you?
OOC: My apologies Ruka, but I really don’t know what to do with you anymore. Especially with this apparent time skip.
OOC:Permission to join?
O-Oh? Sorry, was I talking to myself? Heh... well... is not really serious... just, is not something interesting to say...
... but now is not the time for old, boring stories...
Hill straightened up again, leaning on the wall
The thing is, I... suddenly remembered a few rumors... I heard them as soon as I got here, and I got a little shocked...
Although, after some good sleep, Raven called me saying everybody was gathering! And well, I managed to catch you before you could leave!
I'm glad you are still ok, really. I left the place a little worried about your security...
Gamma begins tossing his shard of ice again as he tilts his head towards Hillock, all ears G: You know, you can always talk to me. I’m not the best people person, but I can at least give you some straight advice. Come on, what’s been bothering you? OOC: My apologies Ruka, but I really don’t know what to do with you anymore. Especially with this apparent time skip.OOC: Okay then.
OOC: If I remember correctly you already have an alt in the middle of one of these, so if you wish I can repost the last thing pertaining to them. If not, simply DM me the info I requested up top. You might have to do it more than once, sometimes I don’t receive the first.
IC:
Gamma forced a chuckle and gestures towards the inside of the nearby cafe LeBlanc
G: no need to worry about me, I’m invincible remember? Still, the others are probably missing you ya know? Might not want to keep them waiting.
Hmm... I still feel bad for leaving you here... since you aren't comfortable inside...
... but yeah. I guess you are right! It's been a whole month, I should at least join the fun!
Gamma sighs and continues tossing his ice
G: Well, don’t wait on me then. Unless you’re trying to convince me to come with you? You’ve been out here a while.
OOC: one last note, these scenarios don’t have a defined end, there are three secret conditions, and meeting any one of them will allow the opportunity to move forward.
OOC: Secret conditions? Am I near of any of those?
IC:
Hill nodded, moving slowly to the door
You know, I'm sure Raven would be glad to see you... you helped us a lot after all... and I doubt Migrant would do anything to you today...
... still. I you are still alive after the party, we can meet again.
I'm sure you still have my codec frequency, right?
OOC: you were near one earlier. Two of them are fairly intuitive, and I never expected anyone to get the third, but someone did the first go around.
IC:
Gamma sighs and puts away his shard
G: Actually Migrant and I are ok now. Apparently it just took watching me at my crummy job to realize I’m not some embodiment of evil.
Gamma shrugs and waves to Hill as he passes by, heading away from the cafe
G: I don’t believe you ever gave me your frequency, but I know you have my number. Assuming you CAN contact a cell phone, simply do so and I’ll have yours.
From his spot in the doorway Hillock can see Kuroumi, who seems a little awkward among the rest of the crowd, alongside Robin, Raven, Migrant, Grey, and the rest of his friends from the Feathers Investigation Squad event. So far none of them seems to have noticed Hill
Yeah, the codec should be able to catch your phone... if I manage to calculate your phone's frequency with your number...
Hill followed Gamma, to the counter
There they are... seem like they are having fun at least!
I need to invite you to a coffee before...
"Raven" seemed to notice Hill, as she moved her hand to greet him... but reading the mood, and noticing "Gamma" too, she just nodded to Hill before returning to her conversation
H: Anything you want to drink, Gamma?
Gamma glances around nervously for a moment, eyes lingering on Robin, before he blinks and turns back to Hill
G: oh, you know me. I don’t need much of anything anyways. I guess if you insist just a water or something.
Gamma sighs and looks across the counter. It’s hard to tell, but there’s a bit of a smile at the corner of his mouth
G: still, if you have to calculate frequencies I may not be able to call back. Maybe I need to get a radio or something.
Well, I never had any problems with other communications... my codec should appear on your phone as a normal number.
I just need to "Traduce" your number on my frequencies, so I can call you.
But once I do, you'll have a number to call on...
Or that's how I think it works... you should ask Raven about that...
Was that a smile? Heh... Hill leaned on the counter, after sitting on a chair. The noise from the party didn't muffled their voices, as they were far enough to talk normally
If you could, a coffee wouldn't be bad... black, if you please...
Hill's head turned once more to the party, and the guys over there
Hmm... I'm surprised Kuroumi is here... I thought she would be mad... it's been a long time, you know? Never knew she had Raven's phone number either...
G: Oh, Kuro? She was with me before all these people got here. Must be some sort of coincidence. No one bothered to tell me about the get together.
In a few moments, a familiar, blue-haired Android brings Hillock his coffe
L: Here ya’ are. I take it you two’re part of this little get-together too?
Gamma shrugs and turns away from the counter, looking out across the group
G: I’m not, simply a coincidence is all.
Uh? Nah, Gamma is part of the party too! Just a little shy, that's all!
Nodding a little to thank Lab, Hill took the coffee and gave a little sip, smiling
Gamma said he wanted some water, though... and we can't cheer without two glasses...
Labrys laughs and grabs another cup before she begins filling it
L: O course ya’ can’t. I just couldn’t help but chat with ya a moment, I’m on it.
And in a few seconds Labrys slides a glass of water over to Gamma, a little splashes out but no one pays it any mind
G: Dare I ask what we’re supposed to be toasting to? I can’t remember an....
Come to think of it, that Robin celebration was cut short, Wasn’t it? Some sort of drama.
Robin's party? Nah.
I wanted to toast for... well, this reunion.
I managed to come back here! And everybody is here! I never thought this would actually happen... since our everyday at the Nexus is constant drama and suffering... now everybody seems so happy and... carefree...
... even you accepted my offering just now. You'd normally turn me down and go away... I guess I'm just... glad...
Said the neko, with a faint smile on his face... this was trully like a dream...
Gamma chuckles and shakes his head, smiling all the while
G: maybe your everyday’s like that, but I’ve managed to live a relatively normal life. You know, when no one’s trying to blow stuff up..... So I get a few days of quiet at least.
Gamma stops laughing and looks around for a moment, after being sure no one’s listening, he looks at the floor and lowers his voice
G: honestly Hill, you’re one of the few people I can talk to. I.... I’m glad to have met you.
After years and years of espionage, Hill developed this ability to hold conversations without anyone noticing
So when he noticed Gamma looking around nervously, Hill knew what he was trying to do
Leaning a little forward, Hill entered this "bubble", safe from prying ears...
Well... I'm glad you think so highly on me, honestly. I always enjoyed talking with you. And you know you can always tell me anything. Whenever something is wrong, I'll always lend you my ears... and my fists, if the situation requires it
Gamma chuckles lightly and shakes his head
G: Well, the latter shouldn’t be needed, but I’ll be glad to make use of the former sometime. Though, for now, shouldn’t you be with the others?
Maybe... still...
...
...
Gamma, will you be ok?
......
Gamma laughs and begins playing with his ice shard again
G: didn’t I tell you earlier? I’m practically invincible, of course I’ll be fine. You worry too much.
Kumagawa wakes up at home to the sound of his alarm clock. He looks over at it seems like he’s a little late for school.
"... Oh well"
*shrugging his tardiness off, he puts his uniform on and heads to school*
Hmmmm...
...
Hill kept silent for a few seconds...
... ...
You are not invincible, Gamma... you should be careful from sharp objects...
Getting up quietly from his seat, and giving his coffee a good sip, Hill looked back at Gamma, smiling
It's been nice to see you again... I hope we can repeat this meeting.
Whenever you like, call me through codec...
... and please... cover your back...
... and with that, Hill turned his back and... slowly aproached the group...
Misogi casually heads to school. He’s running late, so it doesn’t seem like the city streets are too full. However, he does catch sight of a car passing by. The driver seemed to be wearing..... An Apron? Maybe they were late for some errands. Regardless, he soon reaches the front gates of the school
Gamma sighs and remains at the bar, holding polite conversation with Labrys. In the meantime, Robin is the first one to notice Hill, and of course steps forward to greet him
R: There you are, glad you could make it. I see you even brought Gamma back in, not sure how you managed that. He seemed pretty set in staying on his own.
*Hill nodded Robin back, his way to greet him*
Yeah, last time I saw him he was going the lone wolf path...
Glad to see you are still alright, Robin
*Now inside the little agglomeration, Hill moved to Robin's place, handshaking him*
I heard there hasn't been much action lately! That means you rested during the whole month, huh?
(edited by Hillock)
Well, I might as well make myself useful.
* he heads to the student council room to do some vice-president stuff and casually skip class. *
Robin smiles and takes Hillock’s hand, shaking it firmly
R: I wouldn’t quite call it resting. Nanaka’s kept me busy most of the time. *laugh* you know how she is. Always eager to hang out.
Misogi makes it into the student council room without incident. Inside, finds that, surprisingly, Medaka is in there. It’s hard to tell what she’s wearing as she sits in a desk, filling out some amount of paperwork.
Not quote dreaming, Yuri remains in the Russian wild, looking at a young woman with long, blond hair and priestess robes. Eris smiles at Yuri and holds out her staff
E: now then, we don’t have long. Just take hold of my staff and I’ll be able to.... Shift you to another dream. You may be able to find others, but remember, not everyone wants to be awoken.
So there's others still dreaming? I guess they'll stay that way without a little push...
Yuri nods to themselves and gently grabs the woman's staff.
Let's go.
" Oh, why hello there Medaka! Shouldn't you be attending class like the good little student you are?"
Yeah! Hahaha... she had to be lonely during this month. Sorry I left so abruptly, I only had time to tell Raven about it, so the FIS knew where I was...
But that's nice too. If Nana had fun, that means everything went alright...
Also, how is Lavenza? Last time I checked, she was recovering from Oda's assault!
Eris smiles and closes her eyes before concentrating. Yuri can see a faint blue glow around her, that grows brighter and brighter. Soon, the scene begins to shift dramatically, with the trees and sky stretching before being forcefully dragged out of existence. When it’s all over, he is standing with Eris just outside of a cafe in Tokyo. Inside Yuri can hear the sounds of a great crowd. Eris nods to him and steps back
E: here you are, a world that has known peace for a while. I’m afraid this is as far as I can go. Good luck.
Medaka almost jumps at the sound of Misogi’s voice. The blue-haired girl stands up and quickly turns around. She’s wearing little more than an apron.
M: What do you mean by that? I still have ten minutes before class starts, I can get this request done.
Robin casually leans back in a booth and looks around, he gestures to Lavenza who is talking with Raven in a corner
R: You tell me. Does that look like someone still recovering? It.... Took a while, but I’m glad life’s back to normal.
"Huh, I guess even my alarm clock lies to me then. I was sure I actually managed to achieve something for once. Anyway, shouldn't you put your uniform on? Oga's going to get pissed at you even more then usual, you exhibitionist"
Thanks. I'll probably need it...
They mutter the last part to themselves as they enter the café. Despite the large gathering taking place, their icy blue eyes are focused as they sweep the crowd, looking for anyone that could possibly be a "dreamer." They'd forgotten about hiding their ears and two tails, but they could always brush it off as cosplay if needed.
Hill followed Robin's sight, until he was capable of seeing the cute redhead,
talking to the loli attendant. After a few seconds, Hill sighed in relief, smiling widely
I see... I'm so glad...
Seems like you guys had a quite pleasant month then! I wish I could have been here with you all...
Hill sat on the booth next to Robin, sipping a little more of his coffee
... and how was Raven? Did she... said anything? About the team or Oda... or Captain Caren? I hope they both made up...
Medaka sighs and shakes her head, she almost seems disappointed in Misogi
M: You can’t convince me that suggestion wasn’t yours you pervert. Still, it was a bit easier to do than I expected.
Yuri enters the cafe, inside is a wide collection of people with anime hair colors. We’ve got your blues, we’ve got your lavenders, we even have another person with cat ears. A few of the people nearest the door turn to Yuri, but they soon continue their conversation
Robin is one of the ones that looks up at Yuri’s entry, but he quickly turns back to Hill
R: Well, it seems Raven was worried about me most of the time. But she seems happy to act like the incident never happened. Keeps mentioning you though.
"Mine? Are you pulling my leg? I don't remember suggesting that..."
* he adds whispering to himself*
"well, not to you anyway"
Yuri decides to just observe for now, and pretends to look very interested in something outside the window. However, they keep listening into the surrounding conversations... and soon sneak an occasional glance at Hill.
>//////<
S-She did?! I-I mean... aahm...
Wanted to make Hill blush? You did it! Congratulations! He had a rough time hiding it from his crush's brother, thank you! His cat ears were shaking like crazy, like his tail!
But enough hints: He managed to relax on the booth, smiling and sipping his coffee, totally not paying attention to the new neko-like character. He was so deep in the dream... he was happy...
Medaka looks around briefly and sighs
M: S... Seriously? It was in the box, and you’re the only person I know who’d ask all the girls to wear.... This.
None of the other people pay Yuri any attention either. It’s almost as though they didn’t exist
Robin laughs and puts one arm around Hill
R: Man, you should see the look on your face. You know, I bet you might get something interesting if you asked her.
Steam suddenly rises from Hill's head... metaphorically
But his hands are shaking suddenly as he eyes Raven, shily from his seat
Y-You think so? I-I mean... it's your sister... a-and she has FIS already...
Judging by the other cat's reactions, he's probably the one Yuri's looking for. The question is, how to get his attention... Best to be quick about it. He's completely enraptured by the current situation. Yuri takes a deep breath and walks over to his table.
Excuse me. Do you have a moment?
"It was..''
* a large pervy smile grows on his face*
"it was in the box you say? Then we have no choice! We must make every girl in school wear nothing but an apron!!!!"
*fist pumping ensues*
The shaking stops suddenly, as Hill notices the white neko talking to him
U-Uh? Sorry... do we know each other?
That wasn't a familiar face... although he felt different from everybody else...
Not exactly. I was told to find you. Mind if we talk outside?
Maybe it's to get away from the ears of the "dream entities," or perhaps it's because the crowd is a bit too big. Either way, Yuri feels the need to get somewhere more... secure.
Hmmmmm... well...
Hill took a look around... everybody seemed so busy with their own conversations...
... sorry Robin, can you excuse me for a moment? It won't be long
Medaka sighs before finally looking at the clock in the room. It seems that class started around 15 minutes ago
M: You’re coming with me, especially if you’re going to make us late.
Medaka runs by Misogi, dragging him by the arm towards their first class
Robin looks between Yuri and Hill, before shrugging
R: if you’re sure about it. I don’t mind. Just come back to me, alright?
Yuri smiles a little.
Good. Let's head out, then.
They turn around and step out the cafe door. They appear to be deep in thought, as if considering their next words.
Thank you, Robin-san
Said Hill as he got up, bowing politely before turning to the stranger
Alright... lead the way, mister...?
"Huh? What class are we going to? "
Hill followed Yuri outside. He kept wondering who was that neko... and of course, he prepared for the worse...
Yuri faces Hill once more, now that they were free to talk.
Let's see... I'm not sure how to phrase this... But to put it bluntly, this isn't real. You're in some kind of illusion.
A terrible explanation, but perhaps they could explain further once they had a reaction to go off of.
...
...
...
...
Wat?
... Wat?
Uhhh... not sure how to react to this... Hill stopped on his tracks for a moment before reacting again...
H-Hold a moment... an illusion? What are you talking about?
It was too soon to jump to conclusions... and since that incident... could it be? Did they followed him again?
As I said, it's an illusion. I was in one, too. They seem to be tailored to each person's innermost desires. For example, I was back home with my family and... my brother that's supposed to be dead, while you... well, you should know that.
They seem to have a bit of difficulty speaking as they mention their brother, but shake it off.
Anyway, I should introduce myself. My name is Yuri Nosneko.
Medaka drags Misogi around the corner and nears a door
M: Homeroom obviously. You know, the first class of the day. There’s no way you could forget something that easy.
Hill And Yuri leave the cafe and, until further notice, are GM-free
"Medaka, you know we're in different classes. Besides, you drove most minuses out of this school during out last battle. There's no point in me going to class."
(edited by Misogi_Kumagawa)
Medaka drops Misogi’s arm before walking to the door. She briefly turns back
M: I’m late enough as it is, just, try going to class will you? Besides, you won’t get to see your suggestion work out if you don’t come to school.
"Like I said, it's not mine! I wouldn't lie to you, would I?"
*He grins *
(edited by Misogi_Kumagawa)
Medaka quickly runs into the classroom door, without even a word of farewell. For a moment Misogi is able to see a few of the others in the classroom. Most notably, a few more aprons spread about before the door is shut and the sounds of a Medaka apologizing can be heard.
H-Hold a moment, please...
Kinda shaken by Yuri's statement, Hill stepped a little back... but he could perfectly notice how they were strugglimg with the explanation
You say this is an illusion... of my desires? But... I thought I already escaoed from STEM... I should be on the real world now...
...
Hold a moment. How do I know you aren't lying? How do you know me to beguin with?!
You won't get to boss me around
* he says so with disdain and returns to the council room again to fill in some useless paperwork. He does with his usual jovial grin*
As I said, I don't know you. I was brought here by a priestess, Eris, to get you out of here. Other than my task, I know nothing about you. Not even your name, or whatever the hell a "STEM" is.
They tilt their head and put a hand to their chin. This is getting a lot more complicated...
What would I have to gain by lying to you?
I-I don't know... but you don't seem to be lying either...
So a priestess... and youbare here to get me out of this dream...
Hill started to forcibly connect the dots... this was too much for so little time...
Guhh... I already felt weird this morning... and my headaches...
...
That's right... Gamma was... here, but... if this was a dream... then that feeling... would make sense...
Finally, some progress.
So you've finally wrapped your head around it? Good. Let's get out of here, then. The faster we reject this dream and escape, the more time we'll have to figure out its cause.
They extend a hand to the fellow cat-person.
Misogi returns to the council room to find it, for the most part empty. The only work for the moment are a few suggestions for the formation of anew club. These clubs vary, from say, a chess club, to ones that are obvious jokes like the walrus club.
Yuri is able to see A Lavender-haired man simply appear behind Hillock. Gamma puts one hand on Hill’s shoulder
G: seems you’ve got an interesting new friend. Care to tell me about them? Seems like they’re a little weird, even to me.
Great. The dream was retaliating. Yuri's tail lashes in annoyance, but they remain silent with their hand still out.
... ... ...
... ... ... It's ok, Gamma... I already knew what happened already...
Hill's face expresion darkened, his hair covering his eyes like an anime cliche. His tone didn't changed, but his body was extremely tensed
... I'm sorry... I didn't... get in time, right? I should have escaped sooner... I could have... if I just...
Hill's body shook a little...
" Ooh! A walrus club! I'll make sure that one gets priority treatment! The chess club can take a hike though." * he starts doing administrative work in an absolutely nonsensical fashion *
Gamma? Simply laughs, before patting a Hillock on top of his head
G?: Could have, should have, would have, who cares? Who cares if any of this is real? All you have to do is accept this. And all your sorrows can go away. Those of your friends too. Wouldn’t that be great?
After awhile Misogi gets most of the paperwork filled out, or at least as far as he can. For example, the clubs require signatures from a faculty supervisor as well
(edited by FemNexus)
"hmmm... How about I mess with Zenkichi's mangas!"
* I take a couple of color pencils from medaka's pencil case, and head over to Zenkichi's desk, take the latest edition of the shounen jump laying around, and begin coloring it in"
Oi, mind not trying to tempt the guy into an eternal dream? You won't get anywhere hiding from reality.
Yuri's Russian accent becomes a bit more apparent with their growing impatience.
... no... that's wrong...
[Insert Danganronp-]Shut up, Hill
Hillock kept his eyes fixed on the ground, still shaking, his voice a little broken as he tried to hide that fact
Gamma... or whoever you are... if what the neko said it's true... you should know perfectly why I can't acept this dream... because staying here... would contradict the whole dream itself...
The first few pencils Misogi grabs break in short order. However, soon he finds a sturdy red one and begins vandalizing the manga. Misogi heard the bell ring and the sound of students walking by, though mind have looked in yet
Gamma? Sighs and shakes his head
G?: and why not? Why can’t you be happy.
?: after all, this is what you wanted. Nexus can’t be wrong
A voice that would sound familiar to Yuri comes from behind the two. The priestess keeps talking
?: if you can’t handle this as a dream, then forget. The world will know serenity soon enough, and then your dream will be realized.
... you... you still don't get it?
Hill's broken voice sounded... hesitant... still immobile...
M-My dream... wasn't peace for me... it's peace for my friends... I want them to... be free. To live happy...
If I'm the only real person here... that means my friends are still outside... fighting and suffering...
Staying here... would be like betraying that dream... n-no?
Wouldn't that... contradict myself?
Many thoughts cross his mind. Is what medaka said true? Are all the students in the academy really wearing aprons with nothing underneath? But what if it's a trap? What if someone actually wants him to look? Oh he would never willingly give someone the satisfaction to win against him! Not as long as his name is Misogi Kumagawa the Minus!!!! His resolve like steel, he keeps on coloring the manga thoroughly, making sure the colors he can work with match the actual colors the character should have.
"Haah, if only this world were a dream where all my needs and desires were true."
Oh. It's you.
Yuri speaks flatly as they address the woman, forming two orbs of blue flame.
I'm still not sure if you're Eris or Nexus, but I'd appreciate it if you let us go.
Hill was too blinded to notice Yuri's fireballs
Gamma? Seems to fade away, leaving only the priestess, she starts by turning it Yuri and attempting to pat their head
E: I am one, and all. Nexus remains outside the dream, widening her net and preparing for the hour of judgement. There is nothing to fear.
After addressing Yuri, the priestess turns to Hillock
E: worry not about your friends, I longed to bring salvation to all. They rest in their own dreams, or, if not yet, they soon will. No one has to struggle any longer.
in a short time, Zenkichi enters the room. The blonde-haired Manager almost immediately catches sight of Misogi’s drawing
Z: What do you think you’re doing? Nevermind, don’t answer that.
Zenkichi quickly approaches Misogi and tries to take his manga back
Z: if you’re going to color, you could at least make sure it’s your own stuff.
(edited by FemNexus)
"What? Why would I read a colored in manga?! It'd loose all it's value if I did that!"
Yuri shrinks away from the pat, flaring up their fireballs.
They're outside? Hope they don't mind if I pay them a visit, hmm?
T-Their own dreams... Nexus?
Lookimg at the priestess now, Hill's expresion showed confusion more than anything
Hour of judgement... w-what the hell is going on? What are you talking about? W-Where are the others?
Zenkichi groans a little as he looks over his ruined manga
Z: that’s my point you delinquent.,... At least it’s mostly still readable, but now it’s completely worthless.
Eris casts Yuri an impatient glance, though she doesn’t seem angry, or sad. Merely disappointed. Eris decides to turn her attention to Hillock
E: The others, such as that pink-haired boy you kept worrying about, are all in dreams of their own. Enjoying the same sense of happiness and satisfaction you have been.
Eris smiles and looks around, she Eyes Yuri warily, one hand on a small amulet
E: Soon, Nexus will have all cradled in her loving embrace. And then, she will extinguish the workd’s Sorrows. Leaving nothing but the dream.
A place without sorrow... That's something I'd like, but it's not living.
Their eyes glow as they speak.
I'd rather create a peaceful world with my own two hands. And if taking down this dream is the first step... then so be it.
No... you are lying!
Gamma is not asleep! He died! They stabbed him, he died from bood loss! They told me... they told me no-one helped him... that he just... said his last worsd and... died on the floor...
I-It can't be possible... t-the world of dreams... what you are saying... makes no sense... you are lying... i-it can't... be so easy...
