the mark of those who cannot be saved

[stagemanagers]

[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! ))

Mmm, sort of. He was working for Sonic’s arch enemy but when you finish both stories, you can play a final one where both sides work together to save the world.

During that part he has this whole redemption arc where he sacrifices himself, but in a later game you find out he survived it and now he protects everyone and helps out Sonic sometimes. While still being all stoic and cool.

[ pause ]

It’s a really good story arc. But bad voice acting.

IM...SORRY

[alchemistake]

...Huuuuh.

[Varian isn't sure he totally gets the appeal, but he does like the idea of a villain turned good guy.

You know. For obvious reasons.]

...wait, voice...acting? I thought you said Sonic was real? You know, like Spongebob?

[SPONGEBOB ISNT REAL]

IM ALSO... SORRY

[samefacesyndrome]

[ She actually turns to him then, after being focused on the screen for so long. ]

......Huh? When did I say that?

[alchemistake]

That first night you slept over in Broadhurst. You...don't remember?

[VARIAN SHE WAS ASLEEP]

…Are you sure I wasn’t just sleep talking?

[alchemistake]

[.........................]

You...you sleep talk?

[The girl who hardly talks ever??]

[samefacesyndrome]

[ She shrugs. ]

It’s not like I would know for sure but… I could?

I really don’t remember saying that though and I can’t… see any other explanation. I’m sure I thought he was real as a little kid…

[ Or wished he was anyway. ]

[alchemistake]

So you're saying....he isn't real.

[samefacesyndrome]

That's right. He's not.

[ ... ]

Were you jealous.

[alchemistake]

Wh- jealous?! No??

[Wow that sure was a strong reaction for someone who totally wasn't jealous at all]
