FOUR ☣

Characters: Remilia Scarlet and You
Setting: Dorm rooms and some of the new floors
Format: Actionspam, but I'll match
Summary: Waking up after being "terminated" again.
Warnings: References to death/blood/gore/etc.

[ Well, this was new. Being terminated and coming back was one thing. She could deal with that. It was like sleeping, and waking up in a daze. But things didn't feel different, here. They didn't feel odd, and that was the problem. She woke up in a room she didn't recognize, with people she couldn't recall seeing. She checked her trunk quickly: everything was still there, even the sunflower. But this was a new room, a new level of the dorms altogether.

Her first move is to run to the graveyard floor, check around for a tombstone with her name on it. And clear as day, there it is. Someone's even gone to the trouble of placing a flower on it. Hmm. Remilia wonders how long she's been gone, if anything's happened to Sakuya, or Meiling, or any of the others.

Well. There's one way to find out. And that involves flying around the dorm rooms like a crazy person, checking every single girl's room for people she'd recognize. ]


[ When that was done, Remilia decided to see what these new floors were about. She'd heard there were at least three new blocks, so that must mean there is a whole fucking lot of new ground to cover. And she's getting right on it. ]

(You can meet Remi in either the dorms or any one of the new floors, for the latter, just please specify where! c:)

[ Karkat looks away, to Remilia, as a means to acknowledge her presence. at least it isn't a HORRIBLY awkward and embarrassing meeting on his behalf. ]

Waiting to see what the catch is. No way can this actually be a safe floor.

What are the chances of -

[ he actually cringes as shoe connects with the glass. Karkat had been expecting it to shatter or do SOMETHING. not just make noise... ]

Are you out of your nooksucking mind? What if it shattered?

[personal profile] papshooshing 2013-02-06 09:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah... Because cause and effect means that you do stupid shit and only you will feel the effects. That's not how it works and I don't expect the Tower to play fair.

[ he might have forgotten about the wings, okay? too busy cringing and expecting something to happen that didn't.

at least it's got him venturing out just a little. and looking down... ]


Look at that pea soup down there. I wonder if it's because we're really that high up or that's just a shitty illusion too.

Communal hivestems can get pretty tall, but certainly not like this. Then again, a lot of the things that happen here shouldn't. It's not that I doubt their capability to make a building like this - they've proven that they can do the most incredibly terrifying crap overnight...

But why. Just what the fuck are they gaining by doing all of this? What's the point? Yeah, they get a good show, but I can't imagine that this is all scientific or just for shits and giggles...

...How bad was it there?

[ he's SLIGHTLY curious. ]

[personal profile] papshooshing 2013-02-07 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
The faintest of traces.

[ and some other things that he would, you know, rather forget about. like the blood sucking and randomly attacking people. 8| ]

...But thanks for that mental image. I needed that so shortly after eating.

Usually vaguer details and a long rant would be more helpful. Just from that one instance, it's comparable to various experiences here.

Okay, the puppet I remember in a little too much detail than I want. For obvious reasons, I'm not surprised that's the one that wants to stay in my gray matter like a leech finding a fresh blood source...

[ sob puppets. people with friendly faces killing friends. HALFWAY hits home, you know?]

[personal profile] papshooshing 2013-02-08 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
Puppets are freaky shit. They are daymare fuel at its finest.

...You mean you don't already?

Trolls are nocturnal by nature, if you can at least remember that correctly.

[ Karkat rolls his shoulders a bit, popping them. ]

Can't really have "nightmares" if you're awake during the night, right? Usually most trolls have violent dreams that seep into our subconscious. There's a reason we sleep in that green slime.

[ scowls right back. ]

You still live in world that is dominated by human culture, right?
