Pretty Pretty Princess: Redux

[enterstageleft]

Who: Those Who Play Games
Where: The Game Tower
When: Day 300

[ Today you step out of the elevators and into the game room to find yourselves in an airy Grand Ballroom. Maybe, if you've been here long enough--you might recognize this room?

At the front of the room is a buffet table featuring finger sandwiches, petit fours, and savory pastries as well as a variety of small desserts complemented by bottoms-up turned teacups and steaming hot kettles set up for self-serve. From nowhere to be seen comes the sound of instruments playing. Up above, tethered to the ceiling, are what appear to be long curtains. …

The small, square tables feature place cards that as of yet are mysteriously empty, but other than that--there is nothing on the table. Those who have walked in and might prefer to walk out again will find they are mysteriously barred from exiting…. ]

[hmmm don't like that. it's good that his breathing is better, but that seemed really quic--]

--Do you have to listen to me?

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Mutters, bitterly,]

You know I do...

[After all, he did strip for her.........]

[failedsafe]

[she rubs the back of her head and sighs, very contrite and concerned]

...Really sorry about that, Ner, thought it might have worn off.

[she takes out of her phone and deletes the images of him stripping where he can see them so he'll know they're gone]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He relaxes just a tiny bit, the smallest of fractions.

Very reluctantly, he mutters out a barely audible,]

Thanks...

[failedsafe]

No problem. Not exactly how I'd want to come by those so.

[she looks thoughtful a moment]

No matter what I or anyone else says after this do what you want only what you want and when you want to.

[she wonders if that will work]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[That's... thoughtful though. He sighs in a shaky way that might almost be a chuckle if he had the mirth for it.]

S'that really gonna work...?

[failedsafe]

I dunno, but it's absolutely worth a shot.

[gigadevilbreaker]

Mmrghn.


I don't want t'do anything.

[failedsafe]

Not doing anything is fine too, I just didn't want your choices taken away.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He's quiet for a while, before mumbling in a tiny voice,]

Don't tell my dad.

[failedsafe]

I won't, don't worry. It won't help you much I imagine. What do you need right now?

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He's quiet for a bit. Unsure of what he wants.]

...T'be alone. To not see anyone.

[failedsafe]

I'll leave then, if that'll help.
