Who: Exael, others
When: Day 5, Afternoon
Where: The Arena.
What: Game 3

[ Another day, another blast of the trumpets, another game.

Exael is there this time, in her human guise, standing in the center of the arena, and in the center of a giant circular mirror with a clock face painted on, that has been installed in the floor beneath her.

Both of the painted hands are currently pointed towards XII

Exael raises both her arms with a flourish and calls out as people enter: ]

Come one, come all! Take your positions, for soon the curtains will rise on our next act!

Well, uh, I m-made a deal with a t-talking cat and ended up with m-more power... M-Me and Double. That's how we g-got our key.

Yeah? What could you do?

It wasn't a n-new power. It was like...the p-powers I already had were s-stronger.
blankasfreshlyfallen: (I hope there's some cake)

Huh. Woulda come in handy if you got to keep it.

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] foreveralawn 2014-09-27 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah...

B-But if we'd k-kept it...then we'd have to k-keep everything else, too. Otherwise, it w-wouldn't be fair.
blankasfreshlyfallen: (It was nothing... believe me.)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] blankasfreshlyfallen 2014-09-27 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
What else was there to keep?
foreveralawn: (excuse me)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] foreveralawn 2014-09-27 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
The...the b-bad stuff. I d-didn't get details...
blankasfreshlyfallen: (I'd kill myself first.)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] blankasfreshlyfallen 2014-09-27 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
...probly better you ditched it, then.
foreveralawn: (how do I say this...)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] foreveralawn 2014-09-29 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
I d-didn't really g-get a choice...but...at l-least everyone okay n-now.
blankasfreshlyfallen: (Me? I'm the one who cut his head off.)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] blankasfreshlyfallen 2014-09-29 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Everything that happened there got left behind, looks like.
foreveralawn: (excuse me)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] foreveralawn 2014-09-29 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Where d-do you think we went? We saw a s-study, and...it w-was weird...
blankasfreshlyfallen: (We were told there was something)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] blankasfreshlyfallen 2014-09-30 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno. We saw some room with a long table.

The people there knew the city.
foreveralawn: (how do I say this...)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] foreveralawn 2014-10-02 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
W-We saw something from the past...m-maybe not of t-this city exactly, though k-kind of -- it was weird.

And...I s-saw a weird drawing...
blankasfreshlyfallen: (I hope there's some cake)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] blankasfreshlyfallen 2014-10-03 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
How do you know it was from the past?
foreveralawn: (excuse me)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] foreveralawn 2014-10-05 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
Well...it was about the p-plague spreading...and we know t-that happened b-before the dome and everything, because of the j-journal, right, so...I k-kind of just assumed...
blankasfreshlyfallen: (I haven't earned this life... yet.)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] blankasfreshlyfallen 2014-10-05 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah?

[He pauses a minute, seeming to think something through.]

What was the drawing of?
foreveralawn: (how do I say this...)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] foreveralawn 2014-10-05 06:17 pm (UTC)(link)
A l-lion, with wings...the other sketches were our s-seals, so I thought, was there s-supposed to be a f-fourth team...? It's k-kind of creepy...
blankasfreshlyfallen: (It was nothing... believe me.)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] blankasfreshlyfallen 2014-10-05 07:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Another one, huh?

[He pauses, think again.]

So what as it you saw about the plague?
foreveralawn: (how do I say this...)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] foreveralawn 2014-10-06 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
H...How it spread, maybe... The p-person whose memory we saw d-didn't seem to know for s-sure where the p-plague came from, but their h-hands were all weird, and strange foreigners were one of the p-possible causes... I think...m-maybe that person was the...s-spreader? I don't know if there's a word for that...

B-But it didn't seem c-certain, exactly.
blankasfreshlyfallen: (Don't sweat it. Keep the change.)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] blankasfreshlyfallen 2014-10-06 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
No clue what might've changed them?

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] foreveralawn 2014-10-07 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
[her hands clench involuntarily at her sides]

T...Their hands were...they h-had to be c-covered up...
blankasfreshlyfallen: (Why can't Jim die this time?)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] blankasfreshlyfallen 2014-10-07 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
So you never got a good look, huh?
foreveralawn: (how do I say this...)

Re: END GAME

[personal profile] foreveralawn 2014-10-07 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
No, b-but...I w-was that person, in their m-mind...I could f-feel it. My f-fingers were...strange.
blankasfreshlyfallen: (I'd kill myself first.)
