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

[wilder]

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.

[persequor]

[ She glares at him, swallowing the feelings of inadequacy raking up her throat. Can't even give a kiss properly. ]

[wilder]

[...]

Okay, just to make sure we're on the same page...does your world have the custom that kissing on the lips means you're romantically interested? [or lustfully, whatever]

[persequor]

No. [ She makes it sound like "ew". ] Not always. It depends.

[wilder]

Oh I see. That's good [it'd be so problematic if you somehow developed something like that for me. WHEW]

Because that's what it means where I'm from.

[persequor]

You thought--ugh! No! Never! [ She shoves him for good measure. ] Why would you make it weird?!

[wilder]

Hey! I was very confused, okay! I was hoping you didn't mean it like that!

[persequor]

[ She looks like she's about to scream him down. Her own too sensitive hearing saves him. Turning around, she stalks off. She doesn't go too far. Much as he annoys her, she does not dare even lose him from sight for fear he will disappear if she does. ]

[wilder]

[Great. Way to mess it up, Zelos]

Look...I'm sorry, okay? Really.

[persequor]

[ A moment's pause and she nods briefly. ]

[wilder]

[...]

Have you been adjusting alright?

[persequor]

It's been a day.

[wilder]

And...?

[persequor]

[ Shrug. ] I'll live.

[wilder]

[A snort]

'Course. I wouldn't expect anything less from you.

[persequor]

[ She smiles wanly. Absentminded, she fiddles with her bracelet. ]

[wilder]

Careful with that. You don't want it breaking or falling off.

[persequor]

[ She lets go as if it burned. ]

Sorry.

[wilder]

...It's fine.

Hopefully someday we can get you one that's less in the way and harder to take off.

[persequor]

[ She plucks at the neckline of her shirt. ]

It's never coming off, is it.

[wilder]

[a pause, he looks slightly away]

[Then he shakes his head. No, no it's not coming off]

[persequor]

Why didn't you kill me?

[wilder]

- What?

Why would I kill you?

[persequor]

[ A faint shrug. ]

I wondered.

[wilder]

Yeah, well-

[his arms cross against his chest; his tone is a bit bitter]

Mithos...made me hurt too many of the people I care about. I'm not about to hurt more now that I have free will.

[persequor]

[ There is no outward expression of it, but a tiny happy bubble balloons in her chest at being included among the people he cares about. ]

You'll get your justice.

[ Mithos' head on a spike will be a good start. For Arya, justice and revenge prove interchangeable at times. ]
