[ Yukio, basically, got fried along with Chicago. And believes that that was the whole black hole incident. Please feel free to break his heart. Oh, and he can't get out of his room, but hasn't realized it yet. ]It's over, right? Everything reset? Everyone's alive again ( Read more... )

just a little incoherent, can't open that door

...

[ Damn does she feel bad saying this, but... ]

Ah, sir? We're... still alive, but... I don't think we're reset yet.

I think you d-- were gone for a little. The ships been aging really quickly, and there's a wolf roaming the halls, driving everyone up the levels.

So I passed out or something? I hadn't been eating much at the time, so I guess it would kind of make sense.

Was it a white wolf?

I... did you wake up where you passed out?

Yes, a really, really big white wolf!

I didn't.

That's Amaterasu: she's not as scary as she looks. Unless she doesn't like you. Then I'd be afraid.

Then I don't think you just... passed out. There were a few others... some people went missing when the rotting started. There was nothing to go back into to look for them.

She's called Amaterasu? [ Who learned the wolf had a name? Did it have tags? ]

Yeah, Amaterasu. She probably had a good reason for whatever she was doing.

So it was like a hole. But not the one that the ship's been moving toward.

Fast decay is a pretty good reason... I guess. She surprised me, so I didn't really think about it right then.

[ Thinking that over, she nods. ]

Yeah, something like that. I don't know for sure. I never got close enough to check it out myself.

I'm gonna die twice!

W-what?

When you get caught in one of the holes like that, you're dead! If I get caught in two, I'm dead twice!

You do? Then how come people keep talking about there being other black holes and coming back?

[ Hot darn if she REALLY has to start thinking about dying her brains going to start twisting up in knots -- but it shouldn't, right? She was already planning to face the fact she was fated to die young. ]

Well, I'm not really sure if that's exactly what happens, but everyone considers you to be as good as dead. Everything goes black and you can't see or hear or feel or do or think anything.

So if it doesn't actually kill us, it might as well.

Somehow, we come back every time though.

I think that makes a little sense. Maybe? Have you been through this once already?

Reply

faintbynumber June 13 2009, 03:42:32 UTC
I have.

I threw my sphere into a hole once to see if I could record what was inside, and I was with everyone the last time we were caught in one of the bigger ones.
