the mark of those who cannot be saved
[You remember dying. Maybe the memory is clear and bright and your body still aches from the cause. Maybe it was fast enough that you didn't feel it and don't remember what you went through. But no matter how you went out, that's no excuse for truancy! Which is to say: you are still in the school.
For those executed, you will wake up in your beds. The dormitories look exactly as they did when you first arrived, without any of the changes or personal effects you and your dormmates might have made. The only real difference is that the little cot in Ambassador isn't there.
For those who were victims, you will wake where your body was discovered. All of your injuries are gone, and you feel fine. It's almost like you're still alive - but you remember what happened to you. It couldn't have just been a dream, could it?
The school looks much as you remember it, save perhaps for a few key differences. For one, there's no groundhog murals anywhere. Where things were green on the other side, like banners or paint, you'll find that here they're blood red.
The doors, for the moment, are still locked. Looks like even death couldn't free you.]
Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5
(( ooc: Welcome to deadland, everyone! It mostly resembles the school here, and new floors will be revealed after new people die. For example, the second area will unlock after the week 3 dead arrive, and so on. Also, all dead characters will wake up at their actual canonpoint, with all lost memories restored. Have fun being dead! ))

The important thing for now is that we're here. Not alive, but... here. And that's something.
[He's trying to be as comforting about this as he can. Friendship and all, right?]

That's good. [ he says, distantly. ] But... Eurydice. I might not - I may never see her again. She can't come here, and at home she's - I failed her. After everything, I couldn't do it.

[Oh. Hold on there.]
The whole business with the Underworld. That? [That's... not good.] What happened?
no subject
[ He shakes his head, like he's trying to dislodge something, and his knuckles are white around the glass he's holding, shoulders shaking. ]
It was easy. It should've been easy. But I was so scared she wouldn't be there and I panicked and I looked and I saw her and she disappeared and I'm so stupid, I didn't - it's all my fault.
[ He whips himself up into a bit of a frenzy as he talks, faster and faster and more and more stressed until he's half-wailing. It was so simple. It was so easy. All he had to do was wait. ]

[Not that Discord can really be throwing stones here. He's definitely done far worse than that to people, for worse reasons, but... It just rubs him the wrong way. Offering hope with such a big caveat.]
You... [He trails off, a moment. Before thinking to himself, what would Antonio do? And then just... sitting down next to Orpheus. After a bit maybe carefully putting an arm around his shoulder. Because what else can he do for this?] Being afraid is only natural. That isn't your fault.

I would climb to the depths
Of the Underworld to see her, except-
I would sing spring to bloom
But we celebrated victory too soon
I would walk to the end
Of the world and back to find her again
All for her, at any cost
But all of that and still to me, she's lost
It's over, isn't it?
Isn't it?
Isn't it over?
It's over, isn't it?
Isn't it?
Isn't it over?
He won, and he took her, and I loved her and she's gone
It's over, and I've died for what I've done
