Heart Game

You have the sensation of falling--no, drowning. Your lungs burn, you can’t breathe, you try to struggle but the current drags you down down down and just as you’re losing consciousness you know you’re dying...

You jerk, abruptly, the landing a little rough as you stand. Your clothes are dry and there’s no water in your lungs. You can breathe.

You find a bluetooth headset on your head, it crackles with static then goes silent.

((Join #sharkbait. Go ahead and start right here. Unless you're Nezumi in which case start here. If you're late check with me on IRC where to start.))

((POWERS: all combat and non-healing powers are ON in this heart. Status removing powers and items are off. Healing powers and items are almost completely ineffective at the start, I'll tell you if it changes. You have all your equipment.))

Alright. I'll hang up now, you can call be back when you're done.

...Thanks for helping.

[GOING TO HEAD TO BLUE, THEN 8|a]

Last time there were heart games . . . we somehow managed to break his heart. He looked fine on the outside, but he wasn't.

The lights flicker and maybe you feel a smidgen less lethargic.

[BUT I DON'T WANT TO... ... ...

Goes to cut a finger on the glass]

You walk into a maze of windy twisty passages all alike. In the corner of your eye you see a shadow flit down a corridor.

Okay.

Ah, you were here before, right? Was there anything about stained glass?

[watching him destroy artwork :|a]

There's also...I'd like to try and find Shark as soon as possible. If we do that, I feel like it'll help most. So the small things we can deal with later, too.

BUT YOU KIND OF DO AT THE SAME TIME.

You cut yourself. It hurts. The glass glows a little.

[Hm.]

[Focusing for a moment, conjuring up a playing card with a bit of magic. Because parlor tricks.]

[Pulling out the pen and writing a note.]

['Negative feelings are supposed to go in here. KEEP CHAINS AND KEY HERE FOR EASE OF CLOSING THE BOX when negative things can be put back inside.']

[And sticking that under the key.]

[welp breaking that artwork sure made me feel less lethargic]

[nodding]

Right. But to get to Shark, we'll probably have to take care of the small things first.

[hands her the crowbar, decided]

Let's break it all. Just the artwork for now, nothing else.
