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. I.

Uh.

Mouse? I. Sorry... um. The mirror...? Kit had a bat...

. . .

Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.

Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.

[Lloyd's quiet for a good minute or two; it's a long, realigning sort of pause]




...what does that even mean...

Look, I didn't even pick a difficult one. It was about trees and bees.

[a little stronger]

Can bees even be happy?

Do they seem sad to you?

They seem like bees.

Sometimes they seem angry.

Probably because there's something big and noisy and red all up in their business.
