W5 - THURSDAY

[tombtaker]

[ okay well presumably this is after they have to exit from the Sickness caused by how fuckin' horrible that Engineering Room is.

Lucien looks kinda ill. ]

I saw flesh. On the walls.

[inquired]

[ hmm. gross!! ]

...Keith said he saw similar when he investigated the Church.

[tombtaker]

[ is that so? ]

Hm. Only for a moment?

[inquired]

Mn. There were worshippers in the church. Then they saw the pink haze. And lo, flesh.

[naeddre]

[gives him a vaguely alarmed look from where she is Feeling Nasty.]

... The dead have talked about flesh walls, where they are.

[tombtaker]

[ he rubs at his temple. ]

Yes. I've seen the flesh walls before, as well. And structures of bone.

[naeddre]

[she just stares up at the ceiling for a second.]

Lucien. Do you think there's a possibility that the ship itself is the body we are looking for?

[tombtaker]

You-- mentioned that. I believe it's a possibility. At least the evidence seems to be suggesting it more.

But how?

[naeddre]

I don't have any idea. [she sighs, rubbing at her face a little.]

If it is true, it really only brings more questions.

[inquired]

[ giving throné a look around lucien at the comment about flesh walls and bones



eyebrow raise of I'm Right ]

[naeddre]

[blleehehhhghhh]

[inquired]

[ gross theory confirmed ]

[solesuccess]

[ i'm sorry he is literally on the ground. ]

Flesh wall with the deceased. Mizuki told me last night there was flesh in the church after some pink haze showed up. So this is now a pattern.

[tombtaker]

[ hm. ]

... I had an experience. I was behind the flesh wall, and smelled the haze - and as I followed it to the body of a woman, floating in water.

[solesuccess]

[ me, knowing what this may be a reference to and him not being canon-familiar. ]

Was else was behind the wall? Was it just an empty room with somebody in a pool or something? [ ... ] I assume she wasn't...y'know. Alive or conscious. Or you would've said so.

[tombtaker]

[ he pauses, because, well. there's a reason he didn't bring this up sooner. ]

I was walking on water. I don't feel it was a ... room. [ like. think more surreal. ] And she was there, floating. I arrived at her body and touched her, felt her memories, and then she turned into Brevyn, and offered me an accord.

[solesuccess]

[ ... ]

More like a dream state. Or a state of consciousness. I assume Brevyn is someone familiar to you, but...why would this body turn into her? Were the memories you felt Brevyn's? Or of the woman we don't know about?

[tombtaker]

Neither mine nor Brevyn's. [ he is sort of stepping around why it would turn into her. ] I assume they must be the mysterious woman's.

When I rejected the offer, of returning her to life and keeping my journal, the place consumed me.

[solesuccess]

[ ...hm. ]

Is it too much to ask what kind of memories you experienced? Maybe it'll give us an idea of how it connects. [ he's saying all of this while basically talking into his knees, but it's audible. ]

Wonder what'd happen if somebody else accepted the offer then. Also, why is it always vore?

[tombtaker]

It wasn't a great deal. A flash at most. Something about ... choosing between happiness and stability.

[naeddre]

[mouths the word vore...]

[tombtaker]

[ very quietly:]

What the fuck is vore?

[naeddre]

I am not... entirely sure, but I don't like it based on context.

[solesuccess]

[ louder: ]

I don't want to explain vore.

[tombtaker]

I don't want you to explain vore!

[ TCH ]
