Jack's lips burned with the ghost of Alinta's kiss when the world fractured around them. It was subtle at first, just the shift of motion at the edge of his vision, but then he saw it. The host, skating effortlessly atop another player's body, gliding across the dance floor like a grotesque parody of grace. The air changed. The crowd's laughter twisted into gasps. The music, still thumping, seemed to mock the horror unfolding. And just like that, whatever spell Blackbook had woven over him shattered. Jack's protective nature kicked in, like it was his first thought, Without thin

Alinta couldn't help but find it odd, how Scar had messaged her, without replying to her question about the ice cream. "I hope it doesn't melt in my inventory..." Alinta thought to herself, packing it away. Scar was only one of two people on her friends list, so when she arrived on the 8th floor, and cautiously stepped out of the city - she was able to slowly make her way towards him. "Wonderland..." She said quietly to herself, she opened up her HUD. Alinta --> Scar; So...what do you mean by wonderland? Alinta --> Scar: Like that movie with the queen of hearts and stuff? Ali

The man twitched, itched, but did not move. Could not move? Perhaps!? Too lost in his dreams! So Alice typed out a message to this 'Alinta' person, inviting her along. Scar--> Alinta: Come meet me in the forest! I found something fun! Meet me in WOnderland! "ThEre!" Alice shifted her form up Scars body, leaning against his chest. "Boop!" She'd touch his nose with her finger. "KeEp DreAminG LittLe Doormouse!" A pat against his cheek. "dO you Like it TherE? Oh I bet you Do! I bet it's all WarM and Cozy!" The messages would pop up on his screen, one after the other, but Alice ha

Jack's fingers twitched. He was aware of the movement of his fingers, but it was not his own. The sluggish weight in his arm lifted, his hand rising as if pulled by invisible strings. His eyes widened faintly, pupils dilated and unfocused. Every muscle in his body felt disconnected, like he was watching himself from somewhere far away. His hand hovered, shaking slightly. His lips parted, and a frail voice escaped. "What.. am I doing..?" The screen in front of him was not steady. It was there and then it was not. The light was very strong, and the letters that were there seemed t

"Hmmm?" Alice watched as he twitched, eyes dancing to and fro. Tears streaking down his face. Crying? Why was he crying? Were his nightmares that bad? But Nightmares were glorious! They would set him free! Break his chains! Maybe he could become something more! Something more than a drab man dressed all in black! "OH! How I want to craWl InSIde youR Head!" The woman stood and began to pace back and forth. There was a problem. "I can't see, no no..." She muttered to herself softly. "He's there, oh yes! He's somewhere, not here, but there! AnywherE? All in his mind! Stuck TraPped EnTwi

The world seemed to turn upside down around him. The tree around him dissolved into a soft blue of color and noise, flowers falling like embers, laughter reverberating as if it was coming from very near. Jack could take a few steps without losing his balance, but his body seemed to be weighed with sand. He gasped for air in a more or less regular fashion but slow and it was as if the air was thickened honey. He heard Alice's crazy laughter faintly and far away and a different voice, smooth, lilting, teasing, that twisted through the trees. But their words no longer mattered. His world was

"PAapa!" Alice skipped over to Tybalt, wrapping her arms around him as he caught her and spun her around once, twice, thrice! She nuzzled the side of his mask with her face. "I didn'T ExPEct you~ A delight!" She stepped back, patting him down, removing an errant leaf from his shoulder. "Such Heights! What a FrEight!" Alice clapped as Tybalt took a bow. "Red and Blue!" A stomp on the blue rose, discarded on the floor, "Blue and Red!" A stomp on the red rose, crushing it beneath her foot, as it snapped it fizzled and sizzled and the smell of burnt leather permeated from beneath her

Jack's instincts screamed as her hand shot out and grabbed the collar of his shirt. He yanked back, trying to resist, muscles tensing against her surprising strength. What is she doing? The forest around him seemed suddenly too tight, the light filtering through the leaves twisting oddly. Just then, she presented the rose to him. While he was leaning backward, a sudden, earth scent hit his nose, damp soil, mushrooms, something rich and unsettling. His eyes widened just in time before she released him, sending another wave of confetti flying through the air. He swiped at the colorful paper

A whistle beneath a white mask of ivory, a cane tucked neatly beneath his right arm as it wandered in from seemingly nowhere. "What's all the hubub chum?" the man twists with a flick of the wrist, beckoning to them both before reaching to a top hat sat squarely upon his head. A roll of the hand sees it drift down his arm, being caught betwixt two fingers by the brim and pressed into his stomach. "Red, Yellow, Blue. What a choice what was stopping you?" He offers quizzically, a slight upturn in his voice as he does. "Chosen yellow, my my what a fellow. What was the last Alice? Was it Blue, or R

Mari felt an irrevocable warmth as his calloused hands slid up her legs, her thigh, pulling her up and into him. Carrying her bridal style. His Italian a little too fast for even her to understand, but she could take a guess it was something along the lines of 'you didn't have to do this' or 'how did you move this?' His joy, his utter disbelief filled Mari with an immense sense of pride and joy. "Am yours...Always..." Mari whispered as she pressed her forehead into the nape of his neck, coiling her arms around his shoulders. Mari didn't really know too much about Vincent outside of the game, b

Pacing in front of the quest board on floor one, in her own head, letting her thought get the best of her. Gaius had told her that once he could prove that he was strong enough that they would move forward. That was weeks ago and time after time she has seen this man brutally murder boss after boss. It made her tingle to see how strong he had gotten and yet not a peep about the marriage. Maybe he meant when he could protect her with no one else around. It made her start thinking that maybe they had to do something that would challenge his strength against all odds. Stopping in front of the que

“I’M loOking for my ONe. EyEd. Jack….Jack….Jack..Jack…” She started repeating the name over and over again, muttering under her breath like it was a whispered mad mantra. “Jack be nimble Jack be quick. Jack climbs up the bEanStalk, Jack and JiLl climBed up the HiLl…Always…AlWays Jack.” A mind so broken and tattered it struggled to focus on one thing too long, even before she was broken ‘Alice’ struggled to keep her thoughts steady. Now, they whirled around in her head, so fast, so dizzying. All she wanted was a very good show. "Maybe he can help us out.” “Y-You…want to meet my papa!?

When her hands flew to her head, Jack's first instinct wasn't fear, it was concern. The way she clutched her skull, the way her body trembled, made her seem less like a threat and more like she was in agony. His brow furrowed. What's happening to her? But as the shaking intensify, her whole body jerking violently from side to side, he instinctively took a step back. His mind was full of confusion about what she might be doing, he was not aware if that was just a show of some kind, a warning or even something terrible but he still knew by instinct that he needed to keep some distance. Just

A man bewildered and frankly beaten a little sideways. After their honeymoon stint he was still ran a little ragged, proving to him just how resilient Mari was to do this so often. Also speaking leagues to why she was so dead ass tired, and always cooed to a well placed foot massage. Bumbling around with the woman as his guide, the sounds of a city didn't do much to offer comfort but his trust in his beloved far outweighed it. Hands pull a strand of velvet from around his head, like a bandage being unraveled. Only a brief glimpse of sunlight before a pair of soft and sweet smelling hands with

The man took a step away from her, and Alice took two steps forward, bouncing to and fro, humming softly, off-tune. The entirety of her just that slightly bit off kilter. As though not everything lined up quite right in that poor deranged and tortured noggin of hers. “Fireball?” Her smile faded. “FiREbaLL!?” She shook her head wildly, “no! No! NO!” She stomped her feet, as though she was having a tantrum, this wouldn’t do. This wasn’t Right! Her hands went to her head, clasping her skull as though it were pounding, Alice shook violently. “No! NO noO noO nO!” Announcing every little p

Standard Recovery +4 EN, Recovery | 256210, CD: 2 (No Proc) Waiting, his time was coming, he just knew it. Every quest that he had been on so far that was involving the guild he had always hit the last boss after charging for so fricken long. He would glance down as he would see the flashings of light get faster and the pulses turned into an outright continuous vibration “Ey there we are” he would grin as he looks down, aims and throws the spear at full force. He would then dive off into the skies himself and enter a spiraling motion. Grasping the end of his spear with a forceful grip and

Standard Recovery +4 EN Seeing that there were only a few left for selection, this was going to be over very soon. His hammer goes up as he starts to play wack a mole with the hiding feature of the game itself. One, two, three shatter into little shards that were very tan looking. His last hit would deal a decent amount of damage as he would see the health of the big but small dude tick down slowly. There was a mass amount of damage coming from all directions and this thing didn’t stand a chance against him and his team that were holding stronger than ever. Even with Raidou being here thi

“Right, hang on…careful…” Mari was leading Lancaster, blindfolded past the confines of Athenaia. Down a small pathway, and hidden by a mountainside. “Almost there…” Mari would pull the blindfold away from his eyes, only to cover them quickly with her own hands. “When you left the Laughing Coffin…I feel as though I took away your home, a space that was well and truly yours, and whilst my home shall always be a place for you…” She paused, finally removing her hands from his eyes allowing him to see the weeks of early rises and late nights. The reason she had been so absent, so tired,

"Boo~" A shower of confetti burst over him, bits of color fluttering through the trees like glitched pixels. Jack spun around, muscles tightening, eyes scanning until they found her. "Did I scare you~!" Her voice carried that unsettling sing-song lilt, too cheerful, too sharp. Jack immediately put his guard up. Unfortunately, he didn't have a weapon equipped, nothing to defend himself with, and every instinct screamed that this woman was dangerous. Still, he stayed where he was, cautious, watching her every move. "Look at you... LOOk at you..." She moved around him in

A tightening grip proved all the nomad needed to know, evidence that the cure administered had done what he'd hoped it would. "I know, its a lot to take in. Its better to learn now that discover it piecemeal out there." He spoke with a nod of his head in a tilt toward the slightly open window. "Or worse, make a mistake you wont get the chance to make another of." He slides his hands free from hers, tapping her twice on the top of her hand. "This will be rather 'warm' like a fever, but its nothing compared to what you've been through." Raidou smiles as he moves to the shelving off to the left,

Passing the tests, ‘Alice’ was freed from Tybalt after what felt like several months - but had only been two days. Guards gone, dead, and cursor flicking from green to orange and now back to green. A temporary debuff gone, much like Ceres’ sanity. The woman was walking through the forests, collecting flowers for a show, collecting samples of all manner of things! Poisons! A drippy sticky sweetly kind of substance from a plant, more! More to explore! When… She heard it, small footsteps of another. And so, the woman followed, quiet as a mouse, the doormouse- don’t you know? "Someo

Standard Recovery +4 EN, Recovery | 256378, CD: 4 (No Proc) Little pink petals float down from where Kasumi was, seeing all of them fall like limp noodles. It was her turn to make a mess. Rushing in with no thoughts at all she would cleave through the poor things like they were nothing more than pathetic mobs waiting to be killed. On one of them she would start to run and randomly teleport to it instead of using her feet. “Ah fuckin hell” she would say as she would trying regaining her balance to swipe at the last on. This boss dude looked the same as the last but it had a chocolate top h
