and I know things now, many valuable things

[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 you're still trapped here.

When you open your eyes it might take you a minute to recognize your surroundings. It's your dressing room, that much is certain, but nothing is where you remember it. It's like everything has been picked up and moved to the other side of the room. The entire room has been perfectly mirrored from what it used to be and, upon leaving, it seems the rest of the opera house is just the same. If you remember one room being in the east wing, it's now in the west. If it was in the west, it's now in the east.

Welcome back to the Opera House, friends, you're not out of the woods yet.]





[ooc: Welcome to deadland, darlings! It's a perfectly mirrored version of the Opera House and each week, as new people die after new floors have been revealed, the stairwell doors will unlock and allow you to reach them. For example, week 3 victims will unlock floor 2 and so on and so forth. Also, all dead characters will wake up at their actual canon point.

Have fun because we have some fun things planned for you.]

...I really doubt that. It's just a bookmark. We died because we have shitty luck, not because of that.

[rockthistown]

You also didn't believe that the God of Earth lived in the Blue Sky Kingdom embassy and then moved with his girlfriend to go live with his brother on Mars.

[robitussin]

Still don't.

[rockthistown]

It's true, though! Why does nobody believe me? All your lives are weird too!

[robitussin]

My life is at least next to normal.

[i hate myself]

[rockthistown]

You don't even have magical girls, how is that normal. Or Sentai or Metal Heroes. We don't really meet them a lot, but we know they're out there, all over the place on Earth. And Riders come in sometimes, but they're from other worlds anyway and not even the other world I came from, so they don't count.

[robitussin]

News flash: weird.

[rockthistown]

But it's not... What else would you say is weird?

[robitussin]

That... is such a broad question that I'm not sure how to answer?

[rockthistown]

I guess. [sigh] What all that I talked about before?

[robitussin]

Like, everything except for the basic laws of physics?

[rockthistown]

[s u l k]

Come on... I already explained all the Precure stuff.

[robitussin]

I really don't think we're going to find common ground on this one.

[rockthistown]

If they hadn't taken my stuff, I could have proved it right then and there. But I guess we'd all have gotten out then, anyway.

[robitussin]

That would have been really nice. Just skip all the bullshit and head straight out of here... It's no wonder they didn't, I guess.

[rockthistown]

Everything here is so unfair.

[robitussin]

...Yeah. It is.

[Don't think about it, don't think about it—]

Anyways, um. What do you want to talk about?

[That sure was an abrupt subject change but oh well!]

[rockthistown]

Um...

[Hime sniffs the air and turns to look at the abandoned pancake in the frying pan. She makes a face.]

Oh, ew, this got all greasy and it's still half-cooked! No one's going to want this one! [She whines and goes to chuck it out.] Why is cooking so hard?

[robitussin]

...Do we even have to eat?

[rockthistown]

No, but it's fun. Besides, it feels weird not to. Same with sleeping, even though we don't have any of our stuff.

[robitussin]

Are you kidding? I've always wished I didn't have to waste time sleeping.

[rockthistown]

What else would you do if you couldn't?

[robitussin]

Well, here, I don't know. But back home, I was so busy, I never got enough sleep... I guess it'll be nice not to be tired all the time.

[rockthistown]

Cram school? I never had to do that in Pikarigaoka, but it sounded terrifying.

[robitussin]

I think it's a little different in the US, but yeah, lots of advanced classes. It looks good on college applications.
