TIAMAT.

[soulping]

It's not long before you're all feeling the tug to go into your rooms: tiny houses carved into the stone of the island adorned in banners of your team colors. But once inside the doors don't close. If you wish to test it you can even enter and exit the house as much as you want.

The room itself isn't the important part. For the most part, it's barren outside of a low-sitting table and a couple of pillows. On top of that able, however, is a handmade poster. There's nothing on it yet.

A QUESTION.

[soulping]

U-um!

[ It's the girl's voice again, somehow even more timid now than it was ten minutes ago. ] I... have a question...! Or... maybe a request...? Ah! What do I do if they say no... I want to help! A lot!

But to do that, something really important needs to come out! It won't hurt you! I can promise. And... it'll be a good thing! I hope? But! You should know! It might makes things hard, too! And you'll have to decide what it is! Because... Because! You'll see!

You don't have to say yes! But if you do, I'll take care of you!

Ah! Um.

So, would you do it? Will you? Even if it might cause a little trouble?





...I'm not very good at this...

DISCUSSION.

DECISION.

[soulping]

[When you've decided what to do say so here! This is individual.]

TEAM TURN-IN.

[soulping]

[Shortly after the game starts, you may want to check your house again because the poster board has changed. On it are listed three simple questions. The first two can be answered individually, if wished:

What do you think is your strength as a team?:
What do you want to thank your teammates of the past for?:

The last one must be answered as a team, if at all:

What would you like to leave behind for the teammates who come after you?

Of course! None of these have to be answered if you don't want to.]

Uh.

[That was a lot of words he didn't really understand.]

Do what?

Re: DISCUSSION.

[flightful]

Wh-what?

It's an honest part! That wants to come out... So I'd help it come out! For a little while!

Re: DISCUSSION.

[tatsumi_textiles]

And it ain't gonna hurt me? Or anyone else?

[incredibly dubious]

Re: DISCUSSION.

[flightful]

Nooo! That's not the point of it, promise!

Re: DISCUSSION.

[tatsumi_textiles]

Well...

[Sighs and glances around the empty room]

Sure, I guess. What do I gotta do?

Re: DECISION.

[tatsumi_textiles]

[Of course Ochre's gonna do the thing, there's no one to tell him not to]

Re: DISCUSSION.

[flightful]

You just gotta say it when you're ready!

[ Which he did. So if he's really sure he'll feel a warm, funny feeling for just a second. When it goes away he'll return to normal, but find a new, temporary companion with him. ]

[tatsumi_textiles]

What the-

[staring down at the new dog sitting next to him]

Where'd that come from?
