[Az is suddenly coming to in a rose bush in the yard, having ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how she got there. She's wearing nothing but a bloody hoodie and a trenchcoat. Whose are these? They're not hers. She wasn't wearing them at endgame.]

[She realizes while attempting to push herself up into a sitting position that she's missing an arm.]

[What the fuck happened? She doesn't remember. Did she die? Wh,...... ????????]

[finalbows]

[ an angie-cube pops up next to her, soon enough. ]

It should be wearing off right about now...

[wants_the_phd]

[blearily, confused, rubbing the back of her neck to check for blood]

What... happened...?

[finalbows]

Ah, there she is.

You tried to slit your own throat. Fortunately, someone didn't let that happen ♡. Now all the flocks scurry to their corners.

[wants_the_phd]

[.....]

[she checks her hand. sure enough, no blood on the back of her neck.]




....Where are you?

[IF HE'S IN THE OCEAN AGAIN I SWEAR TO GOD--]

[finalbows]

Scurried to my corner. I'm in the barn.

[ in the main room, on a chaise, with a blanket over his lap. ]

[wants_the_phd]

[She pulls herself to her feet, somewhat awkwardly. She's never lost a limb before. Her center of balance is slightly off in a way she didn't really expect.]

[Hopefully the door is ajar, because she doesn't have her key. again. she really needs to come up with a solution for this. Tuck it into her collar next time, maybe. but anyway she pushes the door open and shambles inside and looks around.]


...Is everyone else still dead...?

[finalbows]

[ A vine retracts from the handle of the door as she steps in, curling away to. Wherever they go.]

No. Belle's tending to his pet Bluebell, Your Name accompanied me inside a short while ago...

Levie...
He was standing and alert, last I saw. Though the night is young, and he's hardly the type to play remorseful after drawing blood.

[wants_the_phd]

[oh yeah, a vine opening it from the inside would do it. she makes a mental note for the next time she blasts her clothes off and locks herself out of the barn.]

[She goes over to their fancy living room chair (the one that looks like a duplicate of the one he tortured her on that one time) and has a seat.]

Did all of them die?

[finalbows]

Mmhm.

[wants_the_phd]

[rubs her face with her one hand. whoof.]



...How's your leg? Does it still hurt?

[She assumes it is still as missing as her own arm because otherwise he wouldn't be hiding it. This man is at least 75% thighs by volume and it is legally mandated that everyone be Observing them at all times, possibly against their will]

[finalbows]

[ correct. ]

More now that the crux of the initial crisis has passed and the adrenaline high has completely worn off.

[wants_the_phd]

[Okay hold on.]

[She holds out her hand and focuses hard enough to break a sweat.]







[casts Cure on him. +5 HP]

[finalbows]

[ the stump's pain slightly eases off.

He looks surprised. Impressed, even. ]

[wants_the_phd]

[sorry, it's not much. she's very tired and out of juice.]

Did that do anything...?


[she starts trying again. FOCUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS]

[finalbows]

[ openly laughs at her. But... ]

It's less intense now, Dollie, yes. Now. Tell me.

How much do you recall before you ended up back here?

[debug_mode]

...Better?

Can I bleed a little, or...?

[debug_mode]

[Your Name gathers at the table.]

Okay, everyone.

So, I was asked by Belle what happened once I disappeared. I was summoned to Lily. And tortured. Not to death, technically, but it sure felt like death.

--That's the short version. The longer version involves my past, if anyone wants to listen, I may as well put it all out there.

[wants_the_phd]

I...



[hang on, she's taking stock of herself. Is she bleeding? No. Is her arm back? No. Does she hurt anywhere? .......Also no, surprisingly.]

It doesn't hurt....

[holding her face with her one hand]

What happened after the ritual? I don't remember.

[debug_mode]

We sort of lost track of everyone. But, from what I understand...

Lily decided to kill us the same way we killed them in round two, then after that we were all revived free of injuries or any lingering effects of the game. But, that didn't include severed limbs. Why? I have no idea...

So, you and Angel Devil came back missing a limb. ...I'm sorry.

[wants_the_phd]

[stops attempting Crimes and drops her hand back into her lap]

"I'm the Angel of Death, I decide when you live or die, something something eternal suffering," and then I woke up outside the barn with these clothes on.

[finalbows]

You missed the most important part . . . . Where WOULD you be if Lily had finally had enough and goldfished me.

[wants_the_phd]

[She rubs the back of her neck.]

That's okay. Fixable.

...Hey, do I have any scars back here?

[She leans forward to show YN the back of her neck, where there are no marks at all. The skin seems untouched there.]

[wants_the_phd]

"Goldfished" you?

What does that mean?

[debug_mode]

[she blinks, confused, then looks]

Nope, none at all.
