paradisalogs | [Log] You Never Had the Head For All That Bigger Picture Stuff

Who: Colette Brunel, Genis Sage, Lloyd Irving, Martel Yggdrasil, Raine Sage, Sheena Fujibayashi, Yuan Ka-Fai, Zelos Wilder AND YOU
What: Joint Nightmare since for some reason they all share the same fear of zombie angels and crazy godmod teenagers
When: This Weekend
Where: Dream Land
Rating: PG-13 to R

[When arriving in this dream, you'll find yourself in various parts of Paradisa whether it be the castle or the grounds. And boy, do things sure look different. The town is nothing more but rubble, with the farmlands surrounding it razed and salted. There is no sign of any towns person still being alive. The castle still stands, but it seems to lack the life it once had.]

[As for the residents? Well, they got a worst fate than the townspeople. If you come across most residents, there's a good amount of changes. First noticeable thing is they now have wings (some like fairies while most have typical white bird angel wings). They all seem to have a red crystal embedded on them. But worst of all? They are completely devoid of any personality or free thought. Their eyes seem dead and they only seem to respond to the wishes of the one who caused this]

[If you're lucky, you might come across someone who hasn't succumb to this fate - they seem to have taken to hiding in the forest or the mountains. If not? Well...good luck.]

[OOC: ~~TLDR TIME YAY!~~ A joint dream where essentially Mithos Yggdrasil showed up in paradisa and took things over! Pretty much meaning he destroyed the town and turned every resident into zombie-angels. The Symphonian cast (including Mithos cough) will be all over this, but anyone is free to participate in this dream too! If you wish to do so, we got a number of options if you want to more!

OPTION A - Returning Resident/ just wandered into this room.
You just wandered into this or have no idea what's going on. Try not to get killed by angels.

OPTION B - Survivor.
You remember this and don't know it's just a dream. You remember when Mithos Yggdrasil started turning residents into angels, razing the town and claiming himself god. You were among one of the few lucky ones who escaped, who are currently in hiding and either want to find a way to take down Mithos- or find a way out into the Dead Zone where his hand has not reached yet. Maybe you're hiding in the rubble of the city, or the mountains or the forest. Try not to get killed by angels.

OPTION C - Former Angel.
You remember this and don't know it's just a dream. You remember when Mithos Yggdrasil started turning residents into angels, razing the town and claiming himself god. But you were unlucky, and were among the residents who got turned into the mindless drones. You remember how you were forced to kill all the townspeople, help in turning fellow residents into mindless drones like you. But you got lucky in the way that someone saved you, put a keycrest (fancy piece of metal) on your crystal so you regained your mind. You're still an angel- you still don't eat, sleep and maybe even your sense of touch is diminished or gone- but at least you have a mind and soul again. Plus the enhanced senses, strength and reflexes are really nice too. Try not to get caught again.

OPTION D - Angel
You remember this and don't know it's just a dream. You remember when Mithos Yggdrasil started turning residents into angels, when he razed the town, when he claimed himself God of a now lifeless land. But you were unlucky, and were among the residents who got turned into the mindless drones. You have enhanced senses, strength, reflexes and wings. On the flipside, you don't eat, sleep, feel and talking is optional too (since many angels have no voices). You feel nothing. All you desire to do is follow Mithos and his great plan. Have fun.

I already told you, they don't want anything to do with me. [At least, the few that he ran into]

And you know? I reaaaally don't blame them.

[Tsuna's not usually one for stepping all over people's feelings. Seeing Zelos will be downright triggering to some people.

But this is different. They're in a dire situation.

He narrows his eyes.]

And what are they going to do? Say that you can't fight?

You don't have to fight alongside them. You don't even need to associate yourself with them. You can still help while doing that.

[And now comes the bite full of self-hatred]

Considering I'm the one who pretty much handed over the one group of people who stopped Mithos before? I think I've helped enough.

[Awoahwoahwoah what. Back up, he did not hear this part of the story.]

Zelos? What are you talking about?

Oh? You didn't hear?

Back home, Mithos was stopped. Most of the group that stopped him are even here.

But I turned them in. Thanks to me, they're all angels now.

[He's leaving out parts of the story. How he did it against his own free will. How he spent every second trying to fight off Mithos once the boy had finally found him. But it doesn't matter to him. In the end? All his friends were worse than dead, and he was the one to blame.]

[And for the first time, Tsuna honestly begins to feel angry at Zelos.

But it's not because he thinks he betrayed his friends. It's because of the way he explained the situation-- he's deliberately incriminating himself, putting all the blame on him.

If it wasn't a stupid thing to do, where an angel might overhear them, Tsuna might have raised his voice. For now, he keeps it even, but there's a definite undertone of aggravation.]

Tell me the entire story, Zelos.

[...Hm. Maybe this kid was more stubborn than he gave him credit for]

[No, he always knew there was a bit of stubbornness to him]

Rather not, Tsunie. That's the story I'm sticking with.

[He grits his teeth, hands balling into fists at his sides. It's so hard not to raise his voice at least a little. Damn you, Zelos.]

I want to know. Because I don't believe that story for a second.

And you shouldn't, either.

Tell me.

[...a snort; a humorless one.]

Trust me, the full version doesn't put me in a much better light.

[He crosses his arms.]

I'll be the judge of that.

..Whatever.

[he's turning to leave, giving a wave]

Stay alive, Tsuna.

[wow no??? he just found you and you're not trying to kill him and you're actually back to yourself??? sir what in the world is giving you the ridiculous notion that you're allowed to leave?

Suffice to say, this time, Tsuna is not taking no-- or a refusal to talk-- as an answer.

When he moves in front of Zelos, he's in his hyper will form. Maybe because in this form, the frustration of dealing with the man wasn't going to cause him to yell and give away their position. Maybe because he wanted to show the chosen just how serious he was.

Either way, the annoyance has left his voice. When he speaks his name, it's a demand.]

Zelos.

[He stops; a bit surprised that Tsuna did that.]

[Cause seriously, when did this kid grow a pair? But he doesn't back down from his original stance]

I'm not talking.

How long has it been since you were given a crest?

Few weeks? I haven't kept close track.

And yet you're still within the live zone. You've turned in your friends, and made countless enemies.

You could have gone to the dead zone and past it in a few weeks. You could have left this battle-torn land behind.

But you haven't.

Trust me, I've been mulling that option over.

You've had more than enough time to make your decision.

You still want to help.

[It's not a question.]

I don't know what I want.

[He crosses his arms again.]

It's pointless to try and avoid it, Zelos. I will not let you go until you tell me what happened.

[Okay he is starting to get a bit irked]

What the hell for, Tsuna? What purpose would bringing everything up serve?

There is something missing from your story. You told it to me in such a way that it puts all the blame on you. And you believe that version.

But I don't. I know that the reason you're refusing to tell me is because there's some part that contradicts that. Something that makes you a victim, rather than an instigator.

[His expression turns completely cold at that last part. You're getting close to something very hostile]

Believe me, some things are better left missing or unspoken.

[He can see you're just not going to budge on this, Zelos.

Fine. Let's just say what they both already know that Tsuna knows.]

Mithos forced you.

Wow, I'm still not real sure what you're hoping to get out of this- but how about you just shut up right now?
