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!

Ah. [Not surprising, really.] Anyone you're involved with, here?

[felinguistic]

[ He tilts his head at him. ]

No.

[selfservinglove]

[So much for "using Shiraishi's choice of person to put a little pressure on him to do something".]

...

Even after all the sex?

[Because people catch feelings when being intimate most of the time, even Illumi knows this.]

[felinguistic]

Have you stumbled into relationships with everyone you slept with here?

[ it's all on you, illumi. go have his portion of sex for him. ]

[selfservinglove]

No, because I'm different. Assassins don't make connections like that.

[except he's engaged, apparently]

People like you do, however.

[felinguistic]

"People like me", hm?

[ he looks thoughtful, then just amused. ]

No, people like me don't make connections like that either. Nice try.

[selfservinglove]

[Assassins and human beings are entirely different species, didn't you know.]

Okay. [He doesn't seem to be upset over this, he just takes it as it is. Shiraishi confirmed for relationship-less.] Good to know, I suppose. I know people who like to be alone.

[felinguistic]

[ Maybe what Shiraishi is is closer to one than the other. Or maybe right now he's precariously in the middle when he wasn't mean to be and that's where the problem is. Tragic, really. ]

Mm. If that's what a person wants.

[selfservinglove]

[somewhere, aizawa sneezes]

At least you know what you want. Most people don't.

[felinguistic]

[ use your words, aizawa. ]

Ahh, that's a normal human thing though. Hesitation and indecision. It's kind of scary.

[selfservinglove]

That's weakness, though. It's always strange to me, when people don't have a direction or goal...they waste their skills, and stay put in one spot. Fear is something that holds you back. It doesn't make you feel any better.

[Not everyone is born into a family business, Illumi.]

[felinguistic]

Ah. Easier when you don't have to think about what you're doing or where you're going. Maybe having orders to follow is easier than living autonomously.

[ ... ]

It's fun though. [ Mmm. ] Scary, but fun. Maybe I understand it a little more.

[selfservinglove]

Orders? Yes, I think people are better like that. Instead of being aimless, they have a purpose. You tell them where to go, what to do...and that way, you can use them to the best of their abilities.

[It would be better if everyone was just under someone else's control, in the end/]

[felinguistic]

[ He's just quiet. ]

Maybe.

[ ... ha. ] My opinion is somewhat skewed. Maybe I should hold off.

[selfservinglove]

...

What's the opinion?

[you can't just say that AND NOT TELL HIM]

[felinguistic]

Just generally. My opinion would be a poor baseline — when you don’t know any different that’s usually the case.
