Her mood suddenly darkened. The smile slipped from her face, replaced by a slight frown. Lydia really wished Abellio hadn't asked him that. Because now that he asked, she needed to answer. And she remembered what he'd said. How he needed her to pay closer attention. How he had been so clearly and plainly honest with her. She would match his energy. Lydia had never really confided in anyone about her past or her life outside of the game. The sudden change would require that she explain herself. Or at least try to. To Oscar. To Warren. And Abellio especially. She took a deep breath, opening

Kyoto’s blade sang through the ash-thick air, the activation of his Sword Art crackling like static lightning down the steel. In one smooth motion, he unleashed the full sweep of his strike — a wide, arcing blow that radiated pale-blue energy with every inch it traveled. The first bandit, a towering figure with jagged armor and a cruel grin, charged too far ahead of his comrades and paid the price. The blade struck him dead center, cleaving through his defenses and sending him flying. A flare of pixels burst around him as he crashed to the dirt, gasping. A single red sliver blinked above

Edict had sputtered awake, Sable had pulled himself to his feet, and Elora was in good standing too. Astra let out a small sigh of relief that nobody had drowned or taken any major injuries. Wasting little time, the party started to try and figure out where to go from here. There weren't many options left - they could either try to cut through the forest ahead, or continue to follow the water. At this point, without a boat and the waters being as dangerous as they were, it seemed like their only option was through the thick trees. "Glad everyone's okay, but yeah, we should get moving. I'

Abellio was quick to answer Lydia's call. He leaned against the fountain, clear view of the Teleport Plaza. Each time it flashed to signal an incoming Player, his eyes lit up. Only to find himself disappointed that it was someone else entirely. And so it was for a few minutes, getting his hopes up and constantly deflating when the new arrival wasn't her. Each second that ticked by made his heart beat faster, redoubled his excitement. He was practically sparking with energy by the time she arrived. At least, he thought it was her. She looked different. Same general style, far less ink and

Weren't these battles supposed to be electrically charged? With that certain energy of desperation in the air as everyone clung to the hopes of escape? The mantra, one more floor...one more boss...Why was that feeling missing here? Without warning Mari was hit with a sense of vertigo, she had to steady herself as darkness encroached on her vision. It was as though everything became dull, and dark - shadowed nothingness. It reminded Mari of the void, and oh how intimately familiar with that had she been lately - so this? This seemed like a paltry party trick on comparison. "Pathetic..."

Life in Aincrad made for some real miracles. Lydia stood over her bathroom sink, running her fingers over her bare, untainted arms. It was the first time since she was 16 that she was able to see the skin beneath the sleeves of ink. She always wore jackets, hiding her inkwork under layers of cloth. She did away with the piercings too, hand slowly moving down her midriff, her breath hitching when she didn't feel that ring beneath her fingertips. She felt clean for the first time in years. And sure, it was probably all illusion. They were still sullying her skin in the real world. But

STY/L's performance was getting a little more intense. Of course, Lysette was the best rapper amongst the group and she let it show as she went into that portion of the song. Her back-up vocals were all that was needed at the moment so she looked to keep the stage clear again. Several more unwanted 'fans' had found their way on to Abellio's hard work. Her boots would teach them that interrupting a STY/L concert was one of the most grave sins someone could commit when she was on stage. The sound of metal hitting fleshy bits would have been heard if Lysette wasn't giving it her all just now

The Paladin watched as the boss turned from Mina, back to the black armored monster he was, then his form seemed to cave in around her vision. A brief moment of panic began to set in as the memories of her near death experience was recreating itself. Her eyes moved around her HUD since the only thing she could see was that. A heartbeat pumping while she desperately searched for the boss. Her eyes flashed pink as she activated her Night Vision mod but it really only allowed her to see her hand in front of her face. Luckily, though, it was enough. A red glare appeared in her vision, only fa

. "Maybe one day you can add either of us to your list of people you trust." "Maybeh...." Mari muttered as Katoka pulled Mari along and helped her into the carriage. Mari trusted very few people. She could count them on one hand - even then, most of those people she couldn't trust with much. Freyd...Raidou - okay. Two. Two people fit that category. At least it was better than none. “I should have suspected. Freyd always has a way out, doesn’t he?” Mari laughed, "hahah....yeh..." She spoke warmly, recalling the memory. "Yeh...he does...that'sh jush how he ish.. I worry fer

Her heart sunk as she listened. The Katoka still cared, it was a good start. "If it makes you feel any better it wasn't intentional..." still so angry now more so knowing what happened. "I fell asleep in the shower with my clothes on from all that happened that day. The water turned cold and my clothes being like ice sent me into a shocking state." She was feeling down and stressed that night, not wanting to get out of the water at the moment didn't mean she didn't want to get out ever. "It was an accident..." a sad look on her face as Kat shoves her a bit. The girl was shaking, she was trying

The sign outside the alchemy shop swayed gently in the wind, its iron chains creaking above the door. Miyuki hesitated at the threshold. The faint scent of herbs, boiled mushrooms, and… cheese? …wafted through the cracks of the door. Smells like something between dinner and disaster, she thought, wrinkling her nose. Pushing inside, her eyes immediately widened. Shelves upon shelves of vividly colored potions lined the shop’s interior — glowing greens, soft pinks, misty blues. Every bottle seemed to hum faintly with digital life, a coded heartbeat in this artificial world. A clut

The gentle breeze rolling through Tolbana’s cobbled streets carried the faint scent of fresh bread and the distant clamor of metal striking metal. Miyuki stood just inside the southern gate, her hand resting lightly on the hilt of her curve sword, eyes scanning the new surroundings. This town was different than the crowded Town of Beginnings — smaller, quieter… yet still unnervingly real. She exhaled slowly. It had been weeks since she entered this world. Weeks since she'd lost sight of the friend who'd dragged her into it. The longer she waited in safety, the louder that whisper in her h

She let her talk. Kat set out a pair of house slippers before slipping back into her own. She took a step into the living room and stopped. All of it reminded her of Sam, it always had. It was why she had trashed most of the house after she left. She brought new furniture and placed it all in slightly different spots but it still was the same. It was why she didn't stay at home as much, why she would distract herself with books and cleaning when she was here. She winced, not realizing she had been digging her nails into her palm. When Sam had almost said that she wanted to kill herself sh

Despite having just agreed to her plan, Morningstar was charging straight for the boss. Yue Hua opened her mouth but no sound came out. She was torn between yelling after him and trusting blindly that her leader knew what he was doing, given apparent evidence to the contrary. Ultimately, her indecision won out. Morningstar’s fist crashed into the barrier… and four Stygian Warriors dropped to the ground from the shockwave of it. Evaporated. And when the Leech Lich raised its four bony arms and attacked, Morningstar was the first player in its way. Yue Hua shut her mouth and concl

♪ ♫ ♫ ♪ Mari made quick exit, emotions overwhelming her. Freyd suspected trouble imminent. She would never leave these two alone without some other exacting scheme to set the cindered world alight anew. “You really love her, don’t you?” Words rang out as conflicted as their speaker, they pained him just to voice aloud. Freyd hated this man, for reasons more than two lifetimes’ memories could validate. Knowing every facet of his callous monstrous nature, this was the first and only moment he’d ever glimpsed even a modicum of decency in the bastard conqueror’s heart. S

The closer he got, the louder the music grew. The darkness of Floor 29 lended itself to the show: lights stood out in heavy contrast with the thunderclouds, and the pop music thrummed with such intensity that 3ulogy wouldn’t be shocked if it warded off creatures by itself. 3ulogy was prepared to elbow his way to the front of the concert. But he found himself disappointed to see a bare handful of people milling around. Most of them didn’t even seem that interested. The audience energy was closer to salarymen hanging around the water cooler, dreading their inevitable return to work. Ug

Out of breath, she hears a familiar voice. The woman asks her why she here she responds "I hate the way things ended like they did." Kat greets her in, she didn't care if she got sick. Maybe she could have chosen a different day to do this but Katoka might have not been home. She knew from the past how strongly the girl felt about it that Kat would be in the next raid. She might not get another chance. "Thank you..." saying in a small voice as she steps in drenched. Seeing her again was a blast from the past but different, the way she held herself. She wanted to ask how she was doing, whats be
