towerofanimus | A dead man's wish

Characters: Everyone.
Setting: Everywhere, July 11th
Format: Whatever you want - it's a mingle log, after all.
Summary: While Naoya gets the reveal started on the network, Enoch takes care of physical copies.
Warnings: Reveal. Info. Nothing else, inherently.

*There's something different about the tower today. Not in a big way, not like the power or glamours are out. For one thing, everyone with a mailbox will get this note, unsigned:

Souls in our world are defined as the self. Even those without anything that can be considered a soul in their own worlds would manifest one here. Souls are extremely resilient - they can be torn out of their body and survive provided they are removed in the right manner. But they shouldn't be of course - the side effects might be disastrous in ways we can't quite understand. It's happened here before. Souls can be torn out of this world the same as in any other. Here though they can split - that's extremely important. They can split and merge if you have the right skillset. Never lose your soul in the Tower of Animus. None of yours are yet lost - but never lose it! They won't come back whole if you let her swallow them up. The power must have gone by now - she'll want to restore the tower. Everyone who ended up trapped on their own worlds is now in grave danger! She can't take souls as Zo can, but she can siphon them and she can squeeze all the energy out of them.

As soon as this message is decoded put it in as many places as possible! Put it on the network make copies and plaster them on the walls. Do everything you can so that as many people read this message as possible. There isn't enough energy to erase everyone's memories!

Remember - souls born here can be split and reabsorbed here. A soul born elsewhere can be split there, but there's no way to put it back together unless you can put it back where it's supposed to be.

Not everything is as fake as it seems. Your souls are here and you have all been drugged to keep certain aspects of yourselves contained but every part of you is here. You can use that against them if you can figure out how to unchain yourselves. I'm afraid you'll have Jason as your first opponent as he's the one with the keys you need. Be careful! There is information everywhere though much of it has been nearly permanently sealed. I can make it possible for you to access it, although you will all have to unlock it.

If that wasn't strange enough, you've probably seen it already. The same message is posted throughout the tower - on bathroom stalls, on walls, on tables. There are easily over a hundred pieces of paper.

And hey... Isn't that the same note "the Observer" put up on the network yesterday evening?*

((ooc: Mingle log for reactions off the network! Have fun!))

Well there do be being one hundred and six floors, on each dormitory floor there do be twenty bedrooms of four people. Which do be meaning that at maximum there can be four hundred of us.

But there do no be that many, there do be at least one hundred and six of us, even if we did be using two or three people for every dormitory floor we do be having enough to be getting one on each floor. If we did be coordinated.

Someone should really go and count exactly how many of us there are. Estimates are a pain in the butt.

I did be doing so. But then people did be disappearing, more people did be coming, so I did be doing it again. But nothing do be staying the same and then I do be being brainwashed or sent to my dead world and it do be being hard to be keeping track.

I'm sorry. Both of those suck.

[She shrugged] They do be, but I do be being back now. And in my own mind, I do be hoping.

Can you ever really tell?

No. I do no be thinking it do be being possible to be knowing. [She frowned, because this is something she doesn't like thinking about]

That's... creepy. And I hardly ever say that.

[Not much creeps Ryuunosuke out.]

Yeah, this whole place do be being creepy.

At least we're not stuck here forever.

Yes, there do be being that. At least we can be seeing an end. [Even if she didn't want to die, and she hoped they found a better end before that]

I was gonna die if I stayed back home, so, technically... I don't know how you look at it, but it's not so bad, being here.

[She frowned] How do you be knowing that?

The people in my world here came from my future.

From your future? How do that be happening?

We-ell, there are lots of versions of the same world, and some of them got destroyed at a point in time after mine got destroyed, which was when I was pulled here.

But they do be being different worlds, you never do be knowing, maybe if your world hadn't ended you would have been surviving in your world.

Guess that's true, too. Less likely though.

I do be guessing so, but it do always be possible. If not though they did be buying you time, in bringing you here.

Maybe I oughta thank them, just a little.

You do no be needing to be thanking them at all, they did no be doing it for you.

That's why I said just a little. But okay.

Not even a little. [She smirks at him though]

But you do be being alive now and that do be all that do be mattering. In my world we do be saying that those who do be cheating death do be having all the more power to be changing the worlds, because the gods have no been factoring them into their plans.

People cheat death in your world? How do they do that?

They do be being healed when they should have been dying, or surviving against all the odds.
