Betrayal Session 21

[idolpro]

Who: You lot
When: To be inserted into the timeline after completion
What: Betrayal at the House on the Game Tower

[ The game starts with you in elevators, the doors jammed shut. You can keep an eye on the city further and further below you, but there's no introduction to today's game.

It's just as well. Those of you who recognize it need no introduction to it. Those of you who don't couldn't be prepared by any host's opening spiel, anyway.

The elevator stops atop the central tower of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building and then lurches unpleasantly, wrenching itself out of where elevators ought to go. The sudden movement jolts you, and when the doors open you spill out into a room.

Hopefully, with not too much time missing. ]

[Jumping when the door slams shut and the lightning flashes, recovering and testing the handle]

Ah??? Heliotrope????

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

[tries the door from the bedroom] ...I can't get outta this room. [starts pounding at the door with his flesh fist and his porcelain arm/wrist stump.]

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

The handle isn't working on this side either!

[Trying it again!!!]

It won't budge!

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

[that is definitely the sound of Heliotrope kicking the damn door, or trying to. note that while he's wearing boots, it's probably a bad idea to do so with his porcelain foot.

doesn't stop him from doing it.]

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

[Banging on the door with her....well....HAND]

I...I don't want to spend the night in here alone!

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

[definitely going to kick the door again. maybe the wood cracks a little.

...maybe that's porcelain making an ominous noise.]

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

I'm...I'm going to try the axe so...please... back up.

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

[she can probably hear him moving] I'm outta the way now.

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

[ATTEMPTING TO CHOP THE HELL OUT OF THIS DOOR]

It...It's not doing anything! I...

[Takes a deep breath and keeps trying, putting more back into it]

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

...D'ya want me to try with the chainsaw?

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

Please. I don't want you to be alone in there.

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

Lemme know when you're outta the way.

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

[Scuffling sounds as she moves backwards]

Ready.

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

Gimme a second. [how does this even- okay he thinks he has it. also it's really hard using a chainsaw one-handed.

but going to try to saw away at the door.]

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

Is...is it working?

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

...it ain't workin' either.

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

[Just...sits down]

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

[turns off the chainsaw, but keeps kicking the door.]

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

I don't think it's going to give. So, please don't hurt yourself. I can still hear you through the door. And you can hear me.

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

It ain't hurtin' at all...

[says the doll boy kicking a door with his porcelain foot and like no pain sense. though Camellia might hear something that sounds like cracking.]

At least there's that. At least...we've got that.

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

[Luckily the door doesn't seem to meet flush against the floor so she's sliding her fingers under the door to his side]

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

[throws the chainsaw somewhere and goes to twine his fingers with hers. also the two-headed cat is like...next to him, too. meow.]

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

[Oh good. Leans against the door.]

Re: Attic

[wastoldto]

Uuuhhhhhhh...[leans against door, too.] This ain't fair.

Re: Attic

[letgrow]

It isn't....
