[heart game]

[dormancy]

There is a click, a soft urging, almost whispered too soft to hear, but you can sense that you are being beckoned somewhere, lead to an elaborate open door with wood panels and great curls of gold leaf. You cannot see what is beyond the door, but it smells sour and sharp. Before you can turn over the thought of should you or shouldn't you, if you are the kind, there is a quiet push at your back and through the door you go . . .

Join #supersafe, because I like being misleading. When in doubt, use this for flower meanings if you character is the type . . .

[fraternalorders]

Are we indeed?

[dormancy]

You don't . . .

[crueltobekind]

[this doesn't look like what I wanted at all . . .]

Vincent . . . ?

[dramatispersonae]

He turns a color again, but escorting her back out the gate and into the maze. There are a few glances around to get his bearings . . .

"So, flowers, we need to ... "

[dramatispersonae]

It is biding its time . . .

[emocalypsed]

[approaches slowly, NONTHREATENING]

I just want the best for you. That's all.

[dramatispersonae]

The giggles go quiet, and the voices become hushed.

"Oh, no, no . . . " "Not Vincent." "Awful, awful!!"

[dramatispersonae]

"Yes! I was hoping for someone to play with~. Hehehe, we'll have lots of fun together, won't we~?"

[sightunseen]

Let's hurry~

[crueltobekind]

Great . . . I take it you're not going to tell me where he is either?

[dramatispersonae]

You do not, but you certainly had the impression that you did, hmm . . . It isn't too difficult to pick a path through, though. The smell of rotting flesh and old blood gets stronger as you go on.

[shipwithwings]

[it can keep on biding, he's staying way up here]

[surefire]

[brushing herself off... then trying for gate 5 after a moment or two. cheating and flying straight over hedges if that's what it takes to get there]

[dramatispersonae]

"Right, yes! Um, here."

Gilbert closes his hand over a branch of the hedge, and he releases it to reveal a white periwinkle flower.

"That should do, right?"

[dramatispersonae]

Are you going to spend the rest of the game taunting this beast?

[dramatispersonae]

"Not here!" "No, we'd never let him!!"

[crueltobekind]

Somewhere else?

[dormancy]

[staying put]

You can't figure out what that is.

[nexrophilia]

[ ...

Maybe just a little further. ]

[dramatispersonae]

"Has to be!" "He shouldn't be down here, not here. He isn't allowed."

[dramatispersonae]

You don't have to, but it may be wise as a few sharp bones come swiping at her from the bird-like creature. Oh, and mind the overwhelming desire to nap as you get closer to the gate . . .

[crueltobekind]

Useless . . .

[ugh]




[ugh Vincent!!!]









[okay fiiiine I will just try all of the gates!!! Starting with gate 1]

[dramatispersonae]

There isn't any warning as a bone suddenly lashes out, lightning fast aiming to take her head off.

[emocalypsed]

I know. But...I want to try.

[sightunseen]

Perfectly...

[running lightly to return to Yuri's room; puts the periwinkle on his book and returns with the plum]

Can we just return it, or should it be burned, for a proper funeral...?
