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.))

I moved on from there.

Keep talking and I'll find my way over that way!

I'm talking, I'm talking! Is she okay? Masaomi said this place was especially hard on her!

It's still kinda hard, but I figured out how to help her! Don't worry!

[ I GUESS THIS IS THE TIME WHERE A FOLLOWING LLOYD'S VOICE THROUGH A MIRROR MAZE MONTAGE STARTS. ]

[after a while of confused shouting:]

Keep getting everyone together, Kazuki! Selenia's in trouble!

Woah-- you going after him? Okay, everyone needs to follow my voice for the next few minutes!

Yeah! I'll keep listening to you to get back here!

[goes quiet]

[ CUE KAZUKI CALLING OUT, TRYING TO DIRECT HIMSELF IN THE MIDDLE DIRECTION OF EVERYONE ELSE, I GUESS. ]

[there may or may not be a large man missing a shoe heading in your direction, with Lloyd and dark evil corruption in tow]

-- Blizzard?

--woah, shit! What the hell is that?!

Something to get away from!

[keeping it back somewhat with LIIIGHT]

Do you think you can burn it, Lloyd?

I don't have anything that'd set it on fire left. These're just light—

[...and we have explosive material but no way to construct something useful]

We should keep moving in any case. Staying in one place too long will be far too dangerous.

[also keeping some back with FIREBIRD FEATHER. there's also probably a corrupted Kit reflection coming after them]

Lloyd! Apple and I found the detonators!

I still don't know how to make bombs! We need to talk to Masaomi — we need someplace to run to!

Lemme call Mouse, maybe he can navigate us out of here so we can regroup--

[buzzing Mouse's phone but keeping everyone present in on the line too. buzz buzz]

Looks like a party in there.

Mikage is near you. Keep heading in the direction you were just headed in, then take a right as soon as you can. Are you aware that there's something chasing you? There's something chasing you.

[w-wry laugh]

Pretty aware, actually. We're keeping it at bay with as much light as we can, but we need to get out of here so we can regroup, build some bombs, and figure out where to place them to blow this place up.

Let's not waste any time!

[ LEADING OFF IN THE DIRECTION WE'RE ALL HEADED IN THAT CASE, LOOKING OUT FOR A RIGHT TURN. ]

[. . . urgently]

Kazuki's right. You need to get out. Now.

[I will keep telling you "left" and "right" until you can drag Mikage's ass along with you too]

[Apple, Kit, and a bag full of detonators are headed your way. also maybe some corruption oops?]

Blizzard!

[with Apple and is probably chasing some corruption and a corrupted reflection away with some light]

Hey!

Looking around worriedly Anri frowns.

"Wing-kun and Thorn-san..." She hands her sword to Kazuki. "I need to get them out. Mouse-san can guide everyone out while I find them."

And then she's sprinting away.

[ WHERE HAVE ALL OF YOU COME FRO-- WHY IS ANRI RUNNING AAAARGH!! ]
