1st Death

[rightsiderequiem]

Characters: Dextera and you!
Setting: Starting in room 3-10 and then various floors.
Format: Action, but I'll match you.
Summary: Dextera woke up after dying back home and found out the world ended. Again. Problem with that is he was supposed to fix it to ease his sins. Kinda can't do that now.
Warnings: None.


[According to the note, Dextera had failed. The world was destroyed. It was gone and his sin wouldn't be fixed. That guilt wouldn't go away.

He left the room he found himself in as quietly as he could and made his way around the tower. Upwards instead of going down. That was oddly strange in itself but Dextera didn't notice it as much as he should have. The mute just continued to wander, on occasion fiddling with the collar covered by the neck of his shirt. Dextera didn't understand why he had that now either, but then again, he didn't understand a lot of things.

...he'd like an answer, now that he thought about it. Where there people here that could give him an answer? It looked like people lived here. Maybe he wasn't the only one from his world here. Was the Archangel here? Maybe. Dextera should find him if that was the case.

So the mute starts walking a little faster in search of someone who wasn't there, peaking around the corners carefully. He was sure he wasn't in the Neuro Tower anymore, but it never hurt to be safe. Dextera didn't want to die again.]

[His reaction is easy enough to read, thankfully, since he's still not saying anything. She bends down, trying to get back in his line of sight, in order to look him in the eye, a curious expression on her face.]

...You haven't, have you?

[His silence unnerves her a bit at first, but after thinking about it, a thought occurs to her.]

Umm, sorry, but can you talk, or are you...

[rightsiderequiem]

[he looks up slowly and shakes his head. no to both, but to make sure he was being clear, Dextera tapped his throat and shook his head again. the mute had trouble getting messages across and he wasn't completely sure what they were going to do with him. Meta-Beings, he knew quite well what they would do. normal humans? not so much.

...it was kind of sad, now that he thought about it.]

[sukeban]

[Well, if anything, she'll try to pull some positive out of this. Hopefully it'll be enough to make him feel more at ease.]

Well, at least we know you can understand me, so that's something. Can you write? Don't worry about the language, people should be able to read it.

[rightsiderequiem]

[that would be nice.

writing...? oh right, crafting words. he could do that! Dextera nods and he does relax a little bit. if it was something he could do, it wasn't so hard. and it didn't involve dying either! always nice.]

[sukeban]

[There will come a time. She nods in kind, a warm smile on her face.]

Just gimme five minutes so I can change into something more decent, and I'll help you look for something to write with, alright? C'mon, my room's a short walk from the stairs, so just follow me. And stay close, in case anything shows up.

[It's a short walk to the stairs from where they are, as well, so she starts moving, motioning him to follow, not going too far until she's sure he's sticking with her.]

[rightsiderequiem]

[oh probably, since the mun isn't nice. but he's following! and looking like a lost puppy, but that's par for the corse when it comes to him. Dextera is staying a little ways back because he is still not sure about what would happen (and what had already happened with the note saying the world ended again).

but maybe there was the chance she knew where the Archangel was. he could ask, if she didn't mind, once he could write.]

[sukeban]

[They're at the door to 215 in no time, and after letting him know with a quick hand gesture to stay put, she enters, closing the door behind her.]

I'll be right out. Knock if you see anything.

[Some shuffling sounds can be heard from inside as she rifles through her roommates' trunks for something resembling pen and paper, and after about a minute, she exits, jeans and a t-shirt on over her swimsuit but otherwise empty handed.]

Well, nothing here, so I guess we should check the library first. There's bound to be something to write with there.

[She leads him back to the elevator, seeing what conversation she can make with him until he's able to talk back.]

Mind me asking a few yes or no questions along the way?

[rightsiderequiem]

[Dextera is looking around when she comes back out, although he's not sure what he's looking for. guess someone missed the memo about monsters being in the tower.

but when she asks about yes and no questions, Dextera nods. he could answer those. it didn't take much.]
