GRAVEYARD

GRAVEYARD
Abruptly, you come to. The sun is hot on your back, but there's the gentle lapping of cool water on your feet and legs as you regain your consciousness. Beneath you is sand - lots and lots of sand, some of it wet, the majority of it dry and burning. You hear the sound a seagull crying from somewhere up above you, and you can smell and almost taste the tang of salt in the air. You've found yourself washed up on what appears to be some kind of tropical island - one of your hands is gripping your clamshell, even if you didn't have it in your hand before you died. It's bright and well-lit, and there's the sound of voices from somewhere a ways away from the beach. Lastly, as you sit up, if you had some kind of supernatural power before coming here, you notice one thing in particular - that power that you were so familiar with before it vanished upon your awakening inside the hotel? It's back. Welcome to paradise. You won't be leaving here any time soon.
2. The graveyard has its very own location page. You can check it out over here to see what kind of shenanigans your characters can get up to while on the island. 3. Additionally, powers are now available. While some may still be nerfed if they are too game breaking, most characters will wake up to find that the majority of their powers have been reactivated. Should you have any questions or concerns about this, don't hesitate to contact us. |

[ there's a very big difference here. ]
no subject
Did the Schism go away, or?
no subject
[ this explains nothing. ]
no subject
So that means you didn't even get to do the duty you were made for. What a shame.
no subject
[ :) :) :) ]
no subject
So, what now? If you go home, you'll have no duty. You have no duty here, either. You just have your sister.
no subject
[ or the lack thereof ]
But why the curiosity?
no subject
My duty and my family are intertwined. The family business is all that I've worked for. It's all that matters.
[He just stares out at the sea for a mmoment.]
A duty that goes outside of that seems strange. But something like what you have is...understandable, I suppose.
no subject
[ glances at hiza last week ]
Still, it is what it is. My duty, given to me by the previous Lord of Spirits, is defunct. Yet my sister offered me her hand anyway, even when I had nothing to offer her.
How could I have done anything other than my best to support her in response?
no subject
[And he actually smiles at that.]
She's your family, after all. [A beat.] Even if you feel that the concept of family is different...I don't think it's that different at all.
no subject
Hee hee. Perhaps you're right. Perhaps she was right. Who could say.
no subject
[Well that's definitely a nice solid answer. Thanks, Muzet!]
Anyways...I guess I have a question. What happened, that night? The night you died. The demon inside me never knew, after all.
no subject
I wound up having to deal with a demon whose choice of hosts, if it targetted them for their choice of weaponry, might have been compensating for something.
[ an airy sigh. ]
It was a good while yet until curfew, so I didn't necessarily see an invitation to drink as something that suspicious. Of course now obviously I was mistaken.

[nani]
You're saying their weapon was.....big?
[IS THAT THE INNEUNDO???? god. he just. closes his eyes.]
Unlike me, you're not even immune to poison. Drinking things that people offer to you is your own fault.
no subject
Besides, even though I had antidote on me just in case, neither of us actually ended up being poisoned that night. What happened instead was about what you'd expect when someone has to defend themselves against a weapon that has longer reach with simply a dagger.
[ so yes, it was big. ]
Honestly, I'm surprised he didn't get the stupid thing stuck in the walls at any point. Or that he actually managed to get away. Did no one check the state of everyone's weapons? I at least should have been able to do a little damage to it.
no subject
Was it one of the swordsmen? [A beat.] Nikkari? Tonbo?
no subject
[ wow, illumi's demon was shittier at staying undercover than the other one. incredible. ]
If you were the one possessed by the demon, then tell me: he still brought his scythe to the trial, didn't he? I don't think he would ever have thought to leave it behind.

...
Maou. He was hiding in plain sight because nobody would take him seriously.

no subject
Well, the demon's mistake was making me do all of that during trial. [He makes a slight face. Haymitch...] And also basically using my assassin skills to do the equivalent of amateur butcher hour.

[SIGHS]
It's not at all how I do things. It's an embarrassment to the Zoldyck name to have been behind a murder like that.
no subject
What, did your demon want a souvenir?
no subject
[in the end..................Llemon was just a dumb horny sadist]
And I think his logic was to try to stay away from doing things that would point me out, like a cleaner kill or using poison...but that was exactly what ruined his plans in the first place.
