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.))

Area 100%

There's a new exit in that room leading to something called "The Top of the Tower"

[to everyone]

We've got a new area available called "The Top of the Tower." I can direct you to that.

I'm definitely going!

[stepping towards the door, peering in]

Heh. Lead the way, and we'll follow.

The inside of the room is now a mirror graveyard. All that's left is pulverized and melted glass.

Mouse can lead you to the door at the end.

Now that the control room is accessible and no longer in immediate danger—you're welcome, by the way—I can actually come with you if you could use another combatant. Does anybody need a rest?

Mouse, you are super cool. I think you win first place.

Do go on.

No way, it gets boring after a minute or so.

[IN PERSON WITH NEZUMI]

If you're going, I am too.

No you're not. If you're with me I just have to protect you.

Okay, would you rather leave me alone to get up to whatever I choose to?

I'd like to be able to trust you not to go do something I don't want you to do

Shion wanted a toolbox right? There might be one in a desk drawer. The explosion rocked this area a bit too. It might have jiggled something loose.

I'm here for a reason. I want to see it through. And the tower sounds like endgame to me.

[or, yeah, you could leave me in a water-filled room with loose wires while I try to figure out how to make machines work with no skills]
