11th pokéball
Characters: Johtostuck John Egbert and you! (also Rose Lalonde, Dave Strider and OU John in the closed prompts)
Format:
Setting: Various floors
Summary: Catch all for Route_29 John for the event.
Warnings: nothing that i can really think of at the moment save for swearing?
A: Tuesday CLOSED TO ROSE AND DAVE
[It began with three. For the entire first day, they hadn't said anything. They just followed him, smiling, and somehow seeming unnervingly familiar. John did his best to ignore them, and for the most part, it worked. But as the whispers grew louder it became harder and harder for even John, with years of experience in tuning out unwanted sounds, to ignore.]
[Especially when he realized just WHY they had seemed so familiar.]
[John had accepted a while ago that he, Rose, and Dave were not all actually from the same instance of Johto. But this fact was unspoken and John never even gave it much thought.]
[But he couldn't ignore it now. None of them could, if Rose and Dave were going through the same thing.]
[For the millionth time since arriving here, John cursed the fact that their Pokégears did not work in the tower as he ran up the stairs to the second dorm block, his three shadows sticking close. Or at the very least, could the admins have given them walkie-talkies? Would that be so fucking terrible?]
[He knocks on the door of Rose's dorm room, hoping she's actually in there because he is really not in the mood for a game of tower-wide hide and seek right now.]
Rose? Rose are you in there?
B: Wednesday OPEN (floor of your choice!)
[With the help of Rose and Dave, John had managed to overcome the Rose and... Dave (and also Jade). Okay, yeah that sounds a little weird when you put it like that, but the ordeal was hardly a laughing matter. And for the remainder of Tuesday, John was relieved. If that's all he had to worry about, then it wasn't so bad after all. Haha, screw you, tower!]
[But things can never be that easy, and the next day John found himself followed by even MORE shadows than the day before. The Other Father, Luke Triton, Aradia, Jake, Jane, and... Vriska.]
[Hers was the worst. What a terrible moirail he was! She really should have known better than to enter that relationship with a human. You were supposed to protect her, John. And look at all that's left of her now, thanks to you!!]
[John can be found on various floors throughout the day, just wandering as he tries his best to ignore the shadows. It's not working though, as the blue in his collar (and his body itself during the glitches) gets lighter and lighter; and John himself looks more and more tired as the hours tick by.]
[Kid was pretty damn attached to Johto, and it shows.]
C: Wednesday, 10pm: CLOSED TO OU JOHN
[Maybe going to bed earlier will help with all this. Not that 10pm is really all THAT early but whatever, it's earlier than NORMAL and that's what counts. Maybe if he hadn't trudged his way up here so slowly, he would have gotten up here sooner. By now, his collar and body are both a rather alarming shade of pale blue. Because even if he did manage to have some upswings earlier in the day with the help of his friends, he also managed to attract one last shadow.]
[Scratch what he thought earlier about Vriska's being the worst.]
[Because John is positive that there could be nothing in this world worse than listening to his dad accuse him of not looking hard enough for him. Of forgetting about him entirely. He's not proud, son. He's not proud at all.]
[John can't even bring himself to care enough to open the door to his room. Instead, he falls back against the wall next to it and sinks to the floor.]
[Fuck. Everything.]

looks up the floor info / realize I'm the one who made it
Yeah it's just...
We're dead because of you!
All of us! I'll never grow up to be what I wanted...
Is this why you ran away? Don't you care about what happened?
...they're quite loud.
[It is, perhaps an understatement.]
a+
Ha, tell me about it. I swear they're getting louder. The three I had to deal with yesterday seemed to have a better grasp on their indoor voices. Or maybe it's just her...
[What? Feeling too guilty to say my name now, John? Oh but wait, guilt would mean that you actually acknowledged the fact that you killed me. Soooooooo... guess not then.]
Too many floors, the story of animus
[He sighs.]
...there's even Maki's other selves it's...
Waaah! You're just a meanie head that killed us all! No wonder you ran away from all of us, you could never face anyone!
#animus lyfe
[To put it incredibly lightly.]
#at least it's not a tower with a timer like when he did with Thanat--oh wait nevermind
[YEAAAAAAAAAAAH.]
...
[He looks at John's own shadows and to him they just look as their initial form. Not too big and...]
...so they are annoying, right? What do you see when you look at mine?
[Even if John can't hear it, the voices behind him panic and start accusing him of even more things.]
ahahaha
They... could be worse, I guess. I mean if this is all they do, that's not so bad. But I just see... black shadows with what are perhaps the creepiest smiles I have ever seen in my life. Same as when I look at mine.
Why? Do you see something different?
