WEEK SEVEN: ENDGAME

[hellscapes]

Rise and shine, little deadlings. It's the dawn of the final day. The oppressive heat of Hell seems to rise and fall around you, and no matter where you slept last night you'll find that all of the islands across this realm are buzzing with excitement. You all know what comes next. Take some time, gather yourselves, and maybe even have some breakfast. Pick out your best party outfits and brush up on your etiquette. At about eleven in the morning, all participants single-dead and double-dead will find themselves on the receiving end of a new DM.

party starts in an hour!! if you're not in line now, you're gonna miss the start!!

Better start making your way to those wrought-iron gates at the edge of the city. You can see it now, the giant mansion situated at the top of the volcano, but it's still a distance away. The line seems to crawl, slowly, and as you draw closer you'll see several demons and humans being let through and just as many being turned away. But you? Lucky you...as you approach, a flickering shadow three times your size looks you over before letting you through the gate. There's a bridge strung over a pool of lava, wobbling with your every step as your skin practically boils you alive.

But then...as you approach the front doors? The Mansion Welcomes You.

Come on in! You were invited, after all. The party's just getting started but there isn't a shortage of humans and demons already milling around the property as music blasts from all directions. Immediately as you enter, you'll see a large sign hanging in the foyer advertising today's drink-off. There's also a list of names under it:

Akira Fudo
Arataki Itto
Gideon Nav
Hana Song
Harrowhark Nonagesimus
Hunter (Blonde)
Kaname Date
Kuranosuke Koibuchi
Lin Jingheng
Lu Bixing
Persephone
Rynlan Dawnslight
Ryo Asuka
Thancred Waters
Zelgadis

The drink-off itself isn't for another couple of hours though. So why not relax and enjoy the party? Mingle around, explore the house, make your way to the bar to grab a drink...and prepare to play for your life.

Jingheng.

[psynchronise]

... To be fair, that one was kinda fun in the end.

[forefall]

[ it's okay i'm with you :amen: ]

I didn't disagree, but it's hateful that the egg needs to be smashed into nothing in the first place.

[bookpapers]

It felt like winning, and that's good enough for me.

[he will

pick Four up by the waist and spin her in a circle]

[selfdestructs]

I especially enjoyed the part where you and Lin fought, that was very entertaining. [ nods ]

[bookpapers]

...Thanks, Tuuri. I am happy though. I got to meet you and everyone else here, when I thought it was the end for me.

[psynchronise]

[ hm. ]

Sure, entertaining. I didn't realise he was so willing to fight random wildlife.

[selfdestructs]

He is kinda feral.

[psynchronise]

Juuuuust a little.

[polyglotti]

I guess it shows just how much a bunch of weirdos can band together in a time of need.

["They murdered each other" It's fine.]

[forefall]

[ oh, no. that surprises her so much that she stops thinking for a second.

her expression softens before she becomes flustered. ]

I don't understand you sometimes.

[bookpapers]

[Soft... Lavi gently sets her down and removes his hands, though not without lingering a little before drawing back.]

...It's the same for me, you know? Must be another thing we have in common.

[forefall]

[ when he removes his hands, she makes a grab for them. she doesn't want him to go quite yet. ]

Is that a good or bad thing?

[bileygr]

We don't all get what we want. Some worse than others. If the world itself was a book, it would surely be a tragedy.

[teufelshund]

[ nods... ]

It was a little like that with my older brother, originally. He hasn't changed in a very long time now.

[ unfortunately. lucifer's just fucking sucked for centuries. ]

Anyway, I'm sorry to hear that.

[ but it feels like he got his first sample of her metaphorical earth's inner core... ]

[bookpapers]

[He looks briefly surprised, but he doesn't pull away. Just curls his hands around Four's gloved ones and obediently keeps still,]

I'm not sure... But I know that I like it.

[bookpapers]

[they really did murder each other wow

he laughs at that though,]

We really are weirdos, huh?

[forefall]

[ her expression crumples because that's a truth to four. ]

It is tragedy. I don't want a happy ending for everyone. I don't care if it's neat for anyone. I only wanted a page that wasn't full of bloodshed, for me.

[forefall]

Originally? Is it that hard to kill him?

[ she thinks that's a viable solution, if it can work. ]

... I can't say it's fine, but I'm here.

[ there isn't really much to be done. her metaphorical inner core is a mess. ]

[forefall]

[ it's selfish of her to grab onto him like that, but she's selfish at her core. her hold on his hands tightens a little. ]

It's better that you like it. [ ... ] If you like it, it's a good thing.

[teufelshund]

Unfortunately, yes. We were immortal conceptual beings in the first place, so it isn't as simple as destroying one physical body... and if he were to completely destroy himself, he'd take the whole world along with him. Which he's been threatening to do for the past hundred years.

[ god it would be so much easier if he could just let him do that. ]

Being here hasn't been so bad for you after all, then?

[forefall]

He sounds so troublesome.

[ in the tone that you talk about some annoying pest. removed from the ane world, she can talk about him however she likes.

but also, she doesn't see anything wrong with the whole world going with him. whoops. ]

Hm? No, I still think Hell is shitty even if it's not all the eternal fire and damnation and torment all the old books used to talk about.
