Go Fish: Trauma Edition

Who: Naughty little fishes
Where: Game Tower
When: Day 527


[So there you are, minding your own business on a completely normal day.]

[Then you blink —



[— and find yourself, and many other idols, in an unfamiliar room.]

[The room is large and round and made of glass, like a globe. ...No, like a fish bowl.]

[On the other side of the glass walls, you can see indistinct shapes moving around, but the glass distorts the light so much that anything farther than arm’s length is just vague smears of colors and shadow blending with your own reflection. But something is there. Possibly a lot of somethings. ]

[Two formless shapes approach the glass, and as they do, their images resolve into the shapes of a pair of twins, one grinning while the other pointedly looks away from his brother. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the one who actually looks cheerful about being here is the first to speak up:]

Guess what~? You’ve been chosen to play in our very first game. Isn’t that exciting?

[He throws his arms out theatrically.]

Especially after soooo many boring games. The audience is looking for excitement and thrills here! Why not take the chance to really cement yourself as the fan favorite while you have the chance? Heck, it might even fix your little... “problem.”

[There’s a beat of silence, and he moves to elbow his brother who shoots him a “hey what the hell?” look before reluctantly facing the gathered idols.]

...Make sure you protect yourselves. Otherwise...

[He just lets the thought trail off before looking away again. His brother leans on him, resting an elbow on his shoulder as though waiting for him to continue before finally giving up and shaking his head with a sigh.]

You heard him! Give this game all you’ve got - got it?

[that's the WORST PART though???????
Because they don't have work, Nyx is not motivated to peel himself off the floor, and his reply is buried under another couple of gross wet coughs. The disagreement goes unspoken, probably for the best.]

[Tttttentatively setting a hand on his shoulder, he'll remove it if that seems to displease him more though.]

[Nyx does not have the energy to give a darn in either direction about shoulder touching rn. He'll attempt to get his breathing under control over here, please hold.]

[EVENTUALLY his breath will even out somewhat, or at least he'll have the coughing under enough control that he can actually think about things other than not being able to breathe.
That being said tho he has no motivation to peel himself up off the ground so he's simply not going to for a while. Sorry Izanagi's unitmate is a useless lump today.]

Pat pat and using his free hand to cough cough a little, too.
