Heart Game!

[twilight_boy]

Characters: Heart gamers
Location: Heart
Time: Day ??, Time ?? (Will get placed into timeline when done)
Description:

[Okay, so here's what went down. At some point, Roxas took a bad memory that dovetailed badly with some of the other stuff going on in his head. Ven felt something go really wrong and contacted Dream and the rest of you ASAP. Dream allowed an emergency heart game to take place, giving you all an additional task as a quest:

Everyone will get pens and stickers that they will write on. Each person running will have five stickers that they have to use to try to identify something in the heart. It can be used on people, objects, the air, whatever rolls for you, so, for example, "I am going to put this sticker on Roxas, because he is clearly Roxas" or "This stone must be a stone and not a representation of his deep, weighing sense of guilt".

Guesses can be whatever the character thinks the object is. There is no limit to guesses! The catch is that the sticker will shrivel up if their guess is not correct. They cannot use the sticker again if this happens. If it is correct, then it will remain on the object with no effects whatsoever upon Roxas' heart. (Halfway answers which you might run into get shriveled up but don't come off nor do they reveal the whole message of what they were supposed to be.) If they want to use another sticker on the same object . . . No deal. Likewise, people cannot guess on the same object that someone else has.]

I'd say our presence here is plenty necessary. What kinda work? ...What makes you the authority anyway?

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

"The fact that I've been dealing with this mess does. As for the nature of the work: reconnaissance and possible containment."

Re: The Grey Room

[existentiallychallenged]

...Reconnaissance... I guess I can do something like that.

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

"You guess? [dry] Well, it's good to know I can rely on your certainty."

Re: The Grey Room

[existentiallychallenged]

Shut up. Do you want my help or not?

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

"I do have some use for you."

Re: The Grey Room

[existentiallychallenged]

Then lemme hear it. What am I reconnaissance...ing?

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

"There are several areas which have gotten critically tied in with the current crisis. I wish to determine the point at which such a connection had occurred and why, and to terminate said connection if possible."

Re: The Grey Room

[existentiallychallenged]

...Okay. Do I get to know what areas those are?

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

[gesturing at the pictures.] "Those should provide some context."

Re: The Grey Room

[existentiallychallenged]

Huh...

Wait--before we move on.

[can I use one of the labels on you. to make you "organization"]

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

[The label shrivels - but sticks. There is some truth, but not all of it. Saix looks annoyed to have a name tag stuck on him]

Re: The Grey Room

[existentiallychallenged]

[uhuhuhu. thumbs up! now, going to inspect the pictures more carefully]

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

The pictures all appear to be drawn in crayon or colored pencil and are quite good. There are six of them in total. One features a redheaded man wreathed in flame. Another, a green-colored man holding his own severed head. The third is a portrait of a blonde woman in an ornate gown, something which might be a leash stretching from her hand. The fourth seems more abstract than the others, torn carefully in half, both halves covered in red color. The fifth seems to be a landscape covered in tiny keys. Lastly, the sixth... You try to look at it, but your eyes seem unable to focus in. It’s housed under a pane of shattered glass, the glass further obscuring its contents.

Re: The Grey Room

[existentiallychallenged]

[well some of those certainly look more... concerning than others. ...going for the fourth portrait?]

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

[When you touch the red picture, you see a brief flash of glass walls and carnage, and more solid walls closing in on you... Overlaid with shock and guilt]

Re: The Grey Room

[existentiallychallenged]

[eyes widening for a bit]

Ah--...

Is this one of the places--?

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

[Whether or not the question was addressed at Saix, he replies. "It is."]

Re: The Grey Room

[existentiallychallenged]

I can do recon there then.

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

"Very well." [Saix reaches into his pocket and pulls out a black key. "This will bring you back here, once you're done." [He raises his hand and a black portal opens in front of you]

Re: The Grey Room

[existentiallychallenged]

[taking the key, nodding to him, and heading through the portal]

Re: The Grey Room

[twilight_boy]

[You go here.]
