ITP: Totally-not-Slender

[no_longer_a_king]

Characters: [AU5] Saber and Nealfire
Setting: Media Room, before the explosions
Summary: Because the players thought it was funny. Neal does his damnedest to beat the Slender clone on the terminals while Arturia keeps guard over him while the paranoia mounts. Will they unleash something on the Tower? Nope!
Warnings: Possibly cursing and a big buildup with nothing happening.

Arturia stood on the media floor, a sword in hand as she waited for Neal to arrive. Hopefully, this game wouldn't end in something horrible being unleashed, but there was no telling how it would go. True, if that thing was unleashed they could get all kinds of help in subduing it. If not, then at least it was one less thing to be afraid of in this tower, the paranoia likely lessening now that they would know it's safe.

The almost-cheerfulness was odd, but Arturia took it to mean he simply enjoyed the film. She didn't see the appeal in horror films, but then she supposed the appeal was in the fact those films were fiction. No one was really in danger in them.

Unlike in this place.

"Why did the girl show hi--" And then Neal yelped, Arturia's hand went to the hilt of her blade and she looked around the media room to be sure they were still alone.

Neal was now a faint shade of red. "Sorry," he said. "Anyway, uh, she was the main character in a horror film. They're never very bright. It's been a while since I've seen it, but I think she thought he could help. Or he was a skeptic, something like that."

He was quiet as he continued to search for the next note for a while, still embarrassed. "I guess it might be strange to be nostalgic for horror films after a year of this place."
