GRAVEYARD

[fullthottle]

GRAVEYARD POPULATION: 17 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. - - - Welcome to the graveyard! Though your character is now out of the living side of the game, this does not mean they are fully removed from the action. We have several mechanics and events planned that will allow the dead to affect the course of the game just as much, if not more, than those on the living side. We will announce these opportunities as they happen in the #graveyard-announcements channel. But in the meantime, here are a couple of neat things to consider as you settle into the graveyard! 1. As mentioned above, all characters will wake up with their clamshell in hand. While there's no place to use Finansex at this moment, characters will still have access to the My Appointments app to request NPC audiences. Go forth and request private meetings as your heart desires. 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. We hope you have fun!

Hm, why not? If not you, maybe Hizamaru...you could practice talking to him without actually talking to him.

[silvergun]

I still have nightmares from the last time I've seen a bunch of other- no! Definitely not Hiza either.

[selfservinglove]

Are you sure?

[promptooooo.....two hizas for the price of ooonnnnnneeeeeee~]

He's not human like you are. And I know how he thinks. What if you say something that accidentally drives him away? If I were you, I'd at least practice to prevent something like that...you want to keep him by your side, don't you?

[silvergun]

[ He does falter at that for a moment before looking over towards Hiza where ever he is. ]

Thanks, but I want to figure all of that out with him. We're limited on time, so it's important that I spend it with the real one, right?

[selfservinglove]

I understand. Well, if you won't have time, I think Hizamaru does.

[Also looking over at him.]

I'm sure he'd like the practice.

[silvergun]

[ WOW.

He can't even deny that because Hiza does like trying to practice to be useful. ]

Don't. Please don't.

[ Combo of another him running around and then the whole why ]

[selfservinglove]

[There's a smile on his face, but it seems a bit cold.]

Prompto. Don't think you're the only person who looks out for that man.

[silvergun]

[ are you jelly they picked out accessories together ]

I never thought that I was. You know him. He's really, really great.

[ And that was one of the things he was worrying about. ]

I'd like to be. I'd like to figure it out and learn with him while we still can.

[selfservinglove]

[why do they need accessories when they have [REDACTED STUFF FROM PCS]

"Great" is an understatement.

[He gestures to Hizamaru.]

The point is, Prompto, that...you're bright. Radiant, even. For him, you're a novelty.

[A beat. His eyes narrow.]

But if you push it too far, you can blind him. Your idea of a perfect human relationship might be torture to him. And he's the type of man who might never say that to your face.

[silvergun]

I think you have some things wrong... I'm not going to push him or build up some kind of expectations for him. It's why I want to be able to talk to him to him.

If we aren't able to figure out how to communicate and work together with each other, the real us, then it's not going to work. It would be taking a short cut and he deserves better than that.

[ Rubbing the back of his head ]

Thanks for caring about him. You helped him out during all of this.

[selfservinglove]

[There's a slight tic of irritation deep inside of him. This...reminds him of Killua, somehow.]

Hm. No problem. [He glances over his needles, golden and bright.] I just want to make sure someone wields him properly.

[Metaphor, probably?]

The last thing I want is for him to overwhelmed.

[silvergun]

[ He thought he'd have to prove himself only to Higekiri, but here's someone else.

This time he meets Illumi's eyes. ]

I'll show you that I do and will continue to treat him properly.

[selfservinglove]

[His eyes are dark. Only the slightest shift can be seen, swirling like spirals.]

...We'll see.

[And he turns on his heel and walks away without another word.]

[silvergun]

[ He'll watch him leave before looking over to Hizamaru. Looks like they have more to talk about. Thanks Illumi ]
