Everything that kills me makes me feel alive

[midgarhorizon]

Characters: Reno and Shion, and any roomies or anyone that wants to witness a destructive mental breakdown or get involved and/or punched
Setting: Starting off in Room 1-04, otherwise see prompts- prompts will be posted as comments
Format: 1 inch margins
Summary: Shion catches Reno up to speed on the Tower about certain reveals- let's just call the rest temporary insanity. There will be wall punching
Warnings: this isn't going to be pretty



He honestly hadn't wanted to do this, but the lack of clothing for both him and Shion had left little choice. It was degrading. It was humiliating. It was something he kinda sucked at.

Reno sat on his bed with legs folded up underneath him, wearing his makeshift black bandanas to cover his face, long ago replacing the sheet he'd been using. Spread out in front of him was some black cloth he was carefully hand stitching together. It'd be a shirt when he was done, expect for the part it was taking forever. He didn't want to hang out too long in the workshop, or really, anywhere else in the Tower right then, and he was worse with the machines.

By this rate, he'd have this shirt done by December, if he was lucky. Shion had said he wanted to stop by and talk with him, too, and while not totally secure, it was easier here than dealing with randomly wandering monsters.

Reno frowned at the cloth just before he misjudged the distance between his finger and the needle.

"Ouch! Shiva's tits..."

[ THIS FACEPALM IS TOTALLY UNWARRANTED.

So just have Doc staring at you weirdly for your weird reaction. Oh, and the dog sits down and stares at you too. ]

[midgarhorizon]

[Just. Glare, Doc. Glare.]

What makes ya think that wasn't a lie, too, Doc?

[doc_brown]

Because I have left the tower and gone into another world!

[ It was a discreet and easilly missable detail, but Doc's collar was now Yellow, when it used to be Orange before he briefly went to another world. And the fact that he had left the tower, even out of his control, was enough for him to keep believing their inner being is real enough. ]

I did exist in this other world, I was just fine and the doctors didn't find anything wrong with me! Should I add, my body was of flesh and blood and no glamour system existed in Hinoto-Ri!

[Reno was definitely not in the mood to be observant right now. He just snorts and turns back around.]

Doc, they could make you think whatever the hell you wanted.

[doc_brown]

No collar check, no need to sleep in the dorms, for months? I don't think even they could have done that. I don't think they'd have attacked their own tower either.

[ Because the bad guy of Hinoto-Ri tried to destroy the tower, but details. Doc pointed to his collar. ]

Look at my collar, the color's changed! There can be no rational explanation for this aside from my off-world experience.

[ Don't force him to summon his Persona. Please don't. ]

[midgarhorizon]

[Something in Reno's expression cracks, just slightly. Knowing there were other worlds that they could have ended up was really going to make him feel better.]

If it was so great there... how come you ended back here, Doc?

[doc_brown]

[ Way to be negative Reno. You make the Doc sad. ]

That is quite complicated Reno. You see, someone in the other world I believe planned to destroy the tower-- But I do not believe you are in any state to hear the full story now!

[midgarhorizon]

[Reaaaaally.

Reno was determined though, he turns and starts taking the steps down again.]

I'll find ya when I've gotten rid of 'em!
