[Kaito's Heart]

[A gust of wind rushes past you, so strong that you nearly stumble backwards from the force. You hear whispers in your ear, an unfamiliar voice saying, no, not here, not now, go back, before your senses shut off entirely]

[You wake up again to find yourself in a room]

((#dragonheart on IRC for this heart party aw yeah))

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[You pass through the portal and enter a small, cramped room with glass walls. Those who attended Nyssa's game would easily recognize this as one of the glass cylinders that imprisoned Kaito and others while everyone else voted. Thankfully, the portal you entered through remains behind you. Unlike those cylinders, this one has an exit.]

[There is a puppet hanging from the ceiling of this room as well. It's a small marionette of Kaito, though there is a theatrical comedy mask glued to his face. On the ground, you'll find scattered, bloodied bandages]

[I've been in one before, yes. Let's see, then... First, let's clean up these bandages.]

[She picks up a bandage. . .]

[And is immediately struck with the memory of Kaito, terrified yet angry, struggling against some thorny vines that are slowly squeezing the life out of him. It's. . . painful, to say the least]

[When the memory fades, Diz will have a few puncture wounds dotting her arms and legs]

[Not the worst way I could imagine dying, to be honest. Still yes, it is definitely painful. Next... Let's take that puppet down. I will teleport up there if need be.]

[She can teleport up there, but the puppet seems to be attached firmly to the ceiling. It's not coming down]

[...Well, I'll have to give up on this, then. Still, let it be known that I tried.

The only thing left is... Yes, to finish cleaning up the bandages. Let's get them organized, at least.]

[. . . Diz do you really want to. . .]

[She touches another bandage, and this memory is of that time during Nyssa's game. He's stabbed right through the heart with a shard of glass, and although it's painful, it's at least quick]

[When the memory fades, in addition to those puncture wounds, Diz now has a wound on her chest over her heart. it's bleeding, but not fatal]

[Ah yes, this. I assumed that would happen to me in that game, to be honest.

But yes, I am in fact going to continue doing this until all the bandages are cleaned up! It's not like I'm not already hurt anyways!]

[WELL]

[OKAY]

[what is she doing with them? There is no trash can]

[That is true, yes. I am aware. But rather than having them scattered all over the place, they should at least be in a neat pile.]

[well now there is a neat pile of bandages :|b]

[no keys, though]

[Yes, I figured. It can't be helped. Time to head out, then. There's not much else I can do here.]

[after she's done convincing Diamond that the dragon is supposed to be here, Clover is going to go through the portal to see if she can't help find anything.

And stops short when she sees what's on the other side]

[. . . SURPRISE!!]

[if this weren't as important as it was she would've NOPED right back out of the portal.

How high is the puppet? Could she reach if she tried?]

[she can! though if she tries to pull it down, she won't be able to. it's stuck up there pretty tightly]

[THAT'S TERRIBLE . . .

But she's. She's going to take a deep breath and see if there's anything in the cylinders]

[The cylinder is the room itself! It's just big enough for her to fit inside]

[please excuse the player's lack of reading comprehension.

Okay, so. . . . so . . . what now. She kneels down carefully, and picks up one of the bandages]

[She picks up a bandage. . .]

[And is immediately struck with the memory of Kaito, terrified yet angry, struggling against some thorny vines that are slowly squeezing the life out of him. It's. . . painful, to say the least]

[When the memory fades, Clover will have a few puncture wounds dotting her arms and legs]

[O-OH YEAH THAT GAME . . . she remembers that game . . .

She actually stumbles back, her back hitting the wall, and she drops the bandage in alarm, because she had (almost) suppressed her own experience of that. So THANKS KAITO]

[SORRY ABOUT THAT 8(]

[the bandage flutters to the ground, and then remains still]

[deep breaths . . .]

I am hitting you for that. [because. Because, that's why.

She's going to try to take the puppet down again, just because. BECAUSE!!!]

[the puppet is still stubborn :( is she only touching its strings, or the puppet itself?]

[she wants that puppet down, so . . . both?? But she isn't tugging on it so hard that she'll damage it if it won't budge]
