→ for those running it a bit early, characters are aware Nyssa is behind the heart-jumping!
→ please fill out this form before your character gets into zone 2, ooor shortly after! not filling it out until then is fine, but please make sure it's there before. going that far.
→ your characters are aware that going backwards is an awful idea, and shouldn't be attempted. if they leave an area, they can't backtrack, but that definitely does not mean they will not ( somehow ) end up back there.
→ in every zone aside from zone 00 and zone 02, you're more than welcome to partner up with someone else!
→ all abilities/powers are on, and characters have all items on them, including weapons.

Re: ZONE 02
Let us out!
[ he's talking up now? and looking around for the sword from before, because fuck it he wants to take fakeharu with him if he can ]
Re: ZONE 02
--you can't . . . . you can't save me, can you . . . . You said you would--protect me . . .
Re: ZONE 02
[ he holds on to haru just as tightly, pretty much dragging him over toward the sword... everything hurts and the added weight and water isn't helping, but if he can grab the sword he's going to ]
Re: ZONE 02
I—[ he's gasping, voice breaking softly ]—I'm going to die . . . Noya . . .
Re: ZONE 02
[ well, fuck. this is so unfair... he can't be sure that grabbing the sword will get ashuranyssa to calm down, or that he could somehow use it to. break through the ceiling? or something similar? at the very least he'd have a sword to stab things with.
but... he is sure that this isn't the real haru. it isn't his haru. it isn't it isn't he'd seen him change and no matter how similar they looked, they weren't him. his haru would still be okay.
... right?
somehow, it still doesn't make it any easier, but at least looking at him is blurry thanks to. y'know. tears. ]
Shit... I'm so sorry, Haru, I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry--
[ grabs the sword ]
Re: ZONE 02
Noya—how could you—?
[ but he can't say any more. because the water's rushing out of his mouth at full blast, but the betrayal's in his eyes—though, the moment you blink again his eyes are gone, leaving gaping holes for more water to rush through. he sinks, but his grip is still on you, clawing, clawing—like he might be trying dragging you down with him to the depths of the watery abyss. ]
[ the sword, interestingly enough, isn't sinking—neither is it very keen on the idea of being pulled out from the ground, but it keeps you steady, keeps you from sinking further . . .
. . . not that it matters. even as haru sinks—clawing at your clothes and arms and skin and face—the water rushes up. it doesn't stop. there isn't anywhere to go.
somewhere, there's the high pitched, feminine echo of laughter. ]
Re: ZONE 02
that betrayal in Haru's eyes, the rush of feelings of hopelessness, realizing he fucked up-- it's all too much, and with a sharp cry he lets go of the stupid sword to let fakeharu sink him. ]
Re: ZONE 02
fortunately for him, the water rushes up anyway, meeting his level and then filling the rest of the 'cavern'—and haru clings with the grip of a dead man until he's wrestled off by some force—the force of the water, maybe.
it doesn't take long for the water to extinguish whatever vague light source in this place—the last thing aster can witness is haru's lifeless body, betrayal still evident on his face—his dying expression—sinking into the darkness before the waters go black . . . and he finds himself elsewhere. ]
