Heart Game

[digitalemperor]

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.))

[I GUESS I WON'T MAKE CAKES WITH IT THEN...

investigates the compartment further while he calls Mouse again]

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[digitalemperor]

There seems to be nothing else in it.

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[brotagonist]

[hmmph. throws the rock at another far-away mirror while he's thinking and talking >(]

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[digitalemperor]

You smash a far away mirror. A few shards do reach you.

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[brotagonist]

Ow...

[smudges the blood off with an impatient hand and goes to stand past that mirror. then throws a rock at the one nearest to the wall >( I BET I CAN MAP OUT YOUR PERIMETER, STUPID MIRROR MAZE.]

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[digitalemperor]

Lloyd vs mirrors! It's trying to kill you with paper cuts, it really hurts =( but you shatter another mirror and... There's not a wall where it seems like there should be?

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[brotagonist]

[grumbling about the pain and taking careful stock of the situation, maybe he can stand back even further this time...]

Seriously?

[and throwing the rock again from yet farther back this time D8<]

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[digitalemperor]

It's doing it just to piss you off Lloyd =(

But you avoid any cuts! This mirror also seems to be wall-less.

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[brotagonist]

Stupid mirrors and your stupid glass and your stupid feelings and your stupid, stupid everything!

[keeps smashing them towards where walls should be, standing well enough back that he should be avoiding cuts unless they start being dicks about it; idk should we go by every mirror cracked or what. (also, he inventoried the last block of C4 somewhere in there)]

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[digitalemperor]

You do that! You hear Anri again, calling....

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[brotagonist]

[SMASH]

Anri! Can you hear me?!

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[digitalemperor]

"...Lost..."

You might notice Mikage's reflection in a different direction.

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[brotagonist]

We're all lost! Mikage, can you hear me?!

[keeps throwing the rock in Anri's direction for now though]

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[digitalemperor]

You keep on keeping on. But the mirrors seem to be getting more aggressive in trying to shatter at you. More powerful?

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[brotagonist]

[pretty thoroughly if lightly cut up by now — keeps trying to stand further back?]

Maybe I'm getting closer...

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[digitalemperor]

You can hear Mikage clearly in the other direction though--"I hear you!"

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[brotagonist]

Can you get to where I am without touching a mirror? I think I'm getting somewhere!

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[digitalemperor]

He's trying.

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[brotagonist]

[...carefully heads to the far end of the little broken corridor he's made, then throws the rock in Mikage's direction.]

You've got to break'em without touching them! Do you have something to throw from a distance?

Re: Hall of Mirrors

[digitalemperor]

You break a mirror doing that.
