GRAVEYARD

[retellers]

GRAVEYARD Well, that sucked. But no matter what your death was like—whether it was something peaceful or traumatic, you'll find yourself waking in a completely white room on the floor. Small and empty, there isn't anything else there besides an open door to walk through. But before you do that, you'll probably notice that whatever injuries you may have had, including whatever may have been the death blow, are now gone. That's exciting. Stepping out of the room, it seems that you're in a large... house? with three different floors. Everything from floor, ceiling to furniture is completely white, except for the drawings that are plastered to the walls in each room. These are all colorful, drawn in colored pencils and crayon, and resemble a child's drawing. The other notable thing are the windows. While they're present all around the building, looking out of them only shows TV static. Besides that, everything is furnished with the absolute bare minimum of each room. The first floor is all typical common areas one would find in a house. There's a kitchen, living room area, laundry room, dining room, and a main hallway where the stairs are. There are also helpful drawings in these rooms that show the rooms much more lavishly decorated than they actually are. There's a door that appears to be the way to exit the building, but it leads you to somewhere that's not the front lawn. The second floor consists of nothing but twenty bedrooms. Each room has one queen sized bed, an empty dresser, and an attached bathroom with only a sink, toilet, and shower. Like the first floor, each bedroom has drawn pictures that show it looking much more lavish than it actually does. Thanks for nothing, artist! The third floor only has two rooms. One appears to be a home office with nothing but a desk and two chairs, one behind it and one in front of it. On the desk are some blank pieces of paper along with crayons, as well as a written note next to them that says PLEASE DRAW THE PREFERRED ANIMAL :). It looks like this is how you ask for a meeting with a Leader. The other room is much larger, and it's completely empty save for the many drawings lining its walls— in fact, the walls are covered in them, much more than in any other room. On closer inspection, though, it seems like these aren't actually drawings? The papers seem to be showing scenes from the living area. Everything from inside the hotel to the areas beyond the bridge are visible here. However, when curfew hits on Thursday nights, they revert to being normal drawings! Except for the fact that they're all drawings of stick figures being murdered in various ways. Well. At least there's plenty of things to draw with, if you get bored. As of Week 3, each person has the ability to send messages on their PHS unlocked.

[Yeah, he's going to stroll right in that front door, scratching at his neck irritably. Even if the wounds are gone, they still itch in his mind.]

If this is Gehenna then the church has a lot of explaining to do.

[He's a bit salty, but he's here. Hi.]

[laid]

[Shiro he is so happy to see you, please wrangle the children. Raven's sat on one of the couches, and offers a wave.]

Terrible decor, right? Almost makes me wish I still couldn't see like last week.

[lionson]

[Hi Raven! Shiro grins and offers a wave in return.]

It reminds me of some of the drawings my kids made.

So are we really dead here? And who else showed up besides me?

[laid]

[Shrugs????]

It's different from how I remember bein' dead, but who knows with this place.

[A pause, before he adds;]

That girl Yoshizawa, too. They voted fer Emet-Selch in the trial, but the execution didn't work.

[lionson]

[Well. Now he's irritated.]

Of course it didn't. I guess we'll get to see what nova splintering looks like now.

[laid]

What's all that about, anyway? We all figured from yer note that you tried ta off him, but what exactly happened?

[What is this about nova splintering???]

[lionson]

What I heard was that the reason for some of the deaths was because people's nova was splintering. I have no idea what that actually is, but it's tied to people's memories, and apparently it's a bad thing.

So I thought, if I could find the person who's going to splinter next, then I could kill them before someone else got ordered to.

[pulsecannon]

What the heck is Gehenna?

[lionson]

Purgatory. Sort of.

It's where you go when you die for your soul to be judged. But it's generally a negative place.

[pulsecannon]

I've been a place like that, but that was before dying.

[ Her canon. ]

We're just in a place connected to the other place. I would recommend asking out resident babysitter here about it.

[lionson]

[Cater your canon]

Oh? Who's the resident babysitter?

[pulsecannon]

It's Tiger. They are okay I guess.

[ Tiger is just there. Being Tiger. ]

[lionson]

I should say hi, I haven't talked to Tiger before.

[yamantaka]

Personally, I wouldn't want to live where Yamantaka-kun is from, so this is already a lot better than I expected!

[ sup, he's got those girlie mags under his arm ]

[lionson]

I get the feeling that there won't be much 'living' in Gehenna anyway.

[He sees those magazines, though, and he grins.]

Ahh, I see you got your present!

[yamantaka]

Just arrived!

Though, it looks like the timing was great if you wanna borrow one or two too!

[lionson]

Maybe later. I kept my promise to you, but I have one more promise to keep before I can relax and enjoy the afterlife.

[He will come back to borrow them books in a few days, though.]

[yamantaka]

What kinda promise is that?

[ :> whenever he wants ]

[lionson]

It's a promise to Kano, but it's secret~

[Kano can tell Shima if he wants.]

[suddenlybees]

[ Kano is going to shove him back out the front door??? ]

You're not allowed in here.

[lionson]

[He is shoved out!]

Why not? Is something bad in there?

[suddenlybees]

Yeah. Super bad. Like, it's so terrible you don't even want to know.

[ No Shiros allowed in the death house thanks!!! ]

[lionson]

Well if there's something bad in there, that's all the more reason I should go in, yeah? So I can help out everyone in there with the super bad stuff.

[suddenlybees]

No way, it's the opposite way around! Like, all the super bad stuff... you can't help if you're stuck here.

[ If you're dead. You're not supposed to be dead. ]

[lionson]

[Well. I mean. The method of how he got there was different than what he expected, but he was planning on being dead come Sunday. So.]

Where am I supposed to go, then? It's not like I can just turn around and go back.
