Memory Time

[thepriceiswrong]

Who: Idols
Where: The Game Tower
When: Day 165

[ When you enter the Game Tower, you find yourselves in the living room of an expansive, cozy estate house. Outside the windows, it seems to be autumn—the maple trees outside are fully orange—and there's a fire burning in the large fireplace. Across from where you entered, there's a large bay window, where two people are sitting. Well, one's sitting, reading a large hardcover book, and the other is really just lounging. ]

Hi~ Welcome to our game. [says the lounging one, who is dressed in violet and white, violet-embroidered haori over white blouse and equally flower-embroidered shorts, along with a cute hat. They don’t make any move to sit up.] We’ve worked really hard to give you this opportunity to know yourselves and each other more.

...sis, you need to put down the book! I know it’s a really good book, but come on. Unless you really want me to entertain them all by myself.

[ The reading one shuts her book with a snap; she wears a red and yellow patterned kimono with a brown hakama under a dark brown shawl embroidered with lantana flowers. She sighs. ] If they can't use what we give them and make something of that on their own, they're a lost cause, Sumire.

[ And with that, each of you suddenly find yourselves remembering new things about your lives—and then a moment later, you realize you've remembered something else as well. Except it's not something that happened to you. ]

Don't let us down.

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[liarliarliar]

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[atwhatprice]

It's nice to meet you, too. [they're pretty cheerful]

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[liarliarliar]

A sibling pair running a game together.... So you came up with the game together then, Sumire?

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[atwhatprice]

Oh, this one was mostly Lantana's idea, I'm just helping her run it~

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[rollwithdisadvantage]

She can read that book any other time, right?

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[atwhatprice]

I'm sureeee it's a good book, but reading on the air is kinda, you know? Not good?

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[crossmyheartandhope]

Hey. Uh. Sumire, right?

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[atwhatprice]

Yes, that's me~

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[crossmyheartandhope]

You, uh. New to this whole game thing, I guess?

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[atwhatprice]

Pretty new, yeah~ Hopefully it doesn't show too much.

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[nihilmancy]

So, you're not going to kill us, right?

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[irregular]

Doesn't need to be them. Someone usually finds a way.

[This is: not intended to be pointed at all.

[As for how it actually sounds...]

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[nihilmancy]

...I will be charitable, and assume that was not directed at me.

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[irregular]

No?

[K blinks. He does it again.]

Should it have been?

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[atwhatprice]

If I was, it would have been very obvious by now. I'm very upfront with those matters.

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[nihilmancy]

That's, um, a relief?

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[atwhatprice]

This won't be a very comfortable game, but there won't be any violence.

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

So what's your motivation?

I think I can figure out your sister's.

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[atwhatprice]

For this? [gestures at...the current room] I want to see people grow, too.

Re: TALK TO SUMIRE

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Grow into what exactly?
