You appear in a near-empty room. But you are not alone—your team is here, and another. Mirrors line the walls on all sides. Reflected in those mirrors are--

Not you.

Flickering in and out of the mirrors are images: flashes of reds, blues, greens; trees and fields and water; faces you know – all of the "reflections" are images of Kyriakos as you know it.

But it seems so far away—covered in a thick layer of grime.

Those of you whose mirrors are in danger of fading away on the outside know instinctively that you can't simply return. At least, not as you are in your current state. Anyone who looks at them will notice that their forms seem somehow insubstantial, almost see-through. More over: you feel emptied of something, something essential. Whatever it is that makes you care, that keeps you tethered to your very existence has weakened—is in fact failing.

Those of you in the room not in danger of losing yourself understand already that you must aid these people in finding both a new source of strength, new, stronger connections – and clearing the way back home.

[but do Sol and Fiere count as two separate individuals or not, considering they share a soul...?

either way, examining the chalices]


Are we supposed to drink from these...?

Stay close, okay?

[He may have little keeping him tethered to this place, but he still will stand by his friends]

Goodness.

[Marigold is staring into one of those grimy mirrors, frowning deeply. He barely understands the situation, but at least he knows he doesn't approve of any of this.]

Sakura!

[Sol is trying not to freak out, okay.]

We're gonna fix this, okay? I'm not gonna let you disappear on me.

I will, if you will. Don't worry.

[He's going to hover around within a few feet of his teammate(s), whether they like it or not.]

Sol... ? What are you talking about? What's going on?
secretofthefox: ([fiere] watch)

Don't worry, we're gonna fix it.

[says the telepathic fox. who looks worried but is wagging his fluffy tail if nothing else]

[Will try to reach for his hand]

Who said... I'm worried? We've got each other so we'll be fine, right?
secretofthefox: (concern)

According to Queen Estelle and Princess Madeline? Your mirrors shattered, and if we don't work fast, you guys are gonna disappear.

[???? he'd question the telepathic fox, except it's a very cute fox, so he's okay with it even if it makes no sense. Marigold nods, kneeling down so they can see almost eye-to-eye.]

Oh? Will you? Thanks, then.

[clearly this is a trustworthy creature.]
secretofthefox: (look right)

[...Well, whether sharing a toast or something is going to be expected or not, it can't hurt to try and clean it a bit, right?

Grabbing one and starting to clean it off with his shirt.]

[Takes it without a second thought... assuming it's possible in their current state. He's not feeling very grounded right now, so he appreciates it.]

Oh, yes, I'm sure we'll be fine... look, we even have a fox here to save us.
secretofthefox: ([fiere] cheerful)

[spoilers: nothing about Sol and Fiere makes any sense outside of context and sometimes even in, their little OC world is full of my chuuni]

Of course! I'm Fiere, by the way. I don't think we've met, right?

He's a really talent fox too. I can't think of anyone who I'd rather have getting me out of a tight spot.

[chuuni OCs unite. this is the start of a wonderful relationship, clearly.]

I don't believe we have! I'm... Marigold. Of Dawon. It's a pleasure to meet you, sir.

[He manages to put on a smile.]
showyouthesight: (please don't leave)

Shattered? What could cause that? There's barely any of us still around.

[There's barely any of them still in this room.]

I don't know. I don't think anyone knows, Queen Estelle said she didn't know and I don't know who else would. There was an earthquake, but if it was just an earthquake that did it, it would have affected everybody, not just four teams, right?
showyouthesight: (question to the world)

It's nice to meet you too! Oh, and that's Tan. [motioning over to his human] Or Sol, he'll probably introduce himself as Sol. The two of us are kind of two halves of a whole, it's complicated.
