WEEK SEVEN: ENDGAME 2

[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.

Hi and happy endgame everybody! We're so excited to see you here! Today's endgame activities are going to be a little fast and loose, so please be sure to check out the various top levels for what's available to you!

Right. Just gotta remember whatever we decide, you guys need to present it as a punishment so the citizens of hell buy it. Like we're being banished from hell, or forced to stay here because it's what we would hate the most.

[ontrend]

Or sent back to life only due to Mephisto's benevolence, and you have to live out the rest of your life knowing that...

[eugh]

[engineers]

....This is not a terrible idea, actually...

[ the worst guy you know makes a good point to send you all home or whatever ]

[ontrend]

I think everyone watching the show saw me getting all uuuuuuugggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh about it when that drink wore off for me, so it's probably believable?

[refate]

[ontrend]

It's believable.

[refate]

You're right, because I'd hate that the benevolence of my actual murderer would be the reason why I went anywhere, even if I wanted to.

[ontrend]

Yeah... yeah.

[hardrocklife]

[oh, that's hateful actually.]

[ontrend]

[i feel so bad having kuranosuke keep saying stuff like this]

[firstandgreatest]

So, when we ask for it, we just sound really in the dumps about it?

[ontrend]

Depends on the logistics, I think? Like... is our asking gonna be broadcast live to all the demons who live in hell? Or just the announcement of it?

Because if it's just the announcement, Mephisto can just be like, "Praise me! You all owe your lives to me! Go on, ask nicely and I'll give you what you want since I hold your fates in my hand! But you have to thank me first!" and we can all act real butthurt about it.

You know, play it up for the cameras.

[firstandgreatest]

... Okay, it's a cool sounding idea but ...

[ i mean. ]

[ontrend]

Yeah, it's like... we'd get what we want, but is the emotional toll worth it?

[greatvalue]

Whatever happens will become public knowledge. And what Harrowhark and I proposed to Malibu and Blue is that by making it sound like we're being punished by the results, Satan will look good and gain a better public opinion. You know, make it easier for her to pass policies.

If the demons like what happens here tomorrow enough, then the next group who comes after us might get the same opportunities.

[teufelshund]

Well, I'd make it sound a little less corny than that.

[awol]

[ that is a punishment. sipping his drink: ]

Smart.

[ontrend]

It'd give a great excuse for anyone who wants to stick around to give him the middle finger and a great excuse for anyone who wants to leave to pretend to suck it up for the cameras and accept his benevolence while hating every second of it!

[awol]

[ nods. nods nods nods. yes. he sips his drink through a curly straw that says "yikes." ]

I'm fine with this. The mental duress is worth it.

[teufelshund]

Well, I'm fine with that.

[ontrend]

[i feel so bad whenever kuranosuke is salty eric i'm so sorry ilu]

Yeah, we know...

[teufelshund]

[ it's fine he sucks ]

[cavaliered]

[this makes her laugh, actually. this is the best punishment hell could give any of them.]

[ontrend]

Ultimately, I think we can make any proposal work if we're careful about how we present it, but I feel like this would really make the viewers or whatever buy it?

[cavaliered]

No, I agree with you, considering I think that was the only time all of us collectively agreed about something.
