Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

"Most games. I also like flowers!" Ihra says happily.

 

"What sort of games have you played before?" Praecantatia asks, smiling.

 

"Well... I dunno what they're called. Most involved flowers or a bunch of dragons."

 

"Then would you like to play some special types of games with your friends?" Praecantatia asks happily.

Stephanie seems rather excited.

 

"Well, might as well try it to calm down."
He uses his a stone to draw a new grid.

 

"So, what're you doing here? Just standing around?"

 

"We brought Ihra back, then she ditched me with Aj, Stephanie and Katie. Then Ruby showed up and we sorted out our differences." Shadow Stephanie explains.

 

"Aww, I missed Ihra coming back? And why'd they ditch you?"

 

"Because..." Shadow Stephanie says, seeming ready to say something insulting before pausing, "Because...I was mean to Aj and Stephanie..."

 

"Sure!"

You have no opponent.

 

"Follow me, then!" Praecantatia says happily, leaving the room.

"This is going to be so much fun!" Stephanie says excitedly.

"What exactly are we going to be doing?" I ask.

"Imagine a game that you don't play with a controller, but with your mind!" Stephanie says.

"Whoa, that sounds cool!" Katie says, surprised.

 

"Magic is fun! Just... no fire."

 

"Don't worry, there won't be!" Stephanie says happily, following Praecantatia out of the room and through her home, heading to a room filled with computers and devices; Katie and I following behind.

 

Ihra follows, using the excess magic to levitate.

 

I can play against myself.
"Okay. Guess I'll begin with crosses."
He makes a cross in the top left corner.

 

Aaaand... now put a circle somewhere.

 

Ihra finds it easy to levitate through the home, the magic plentiful, if a little less dense around Ihra's staff.

Praecantatia heads over to what seems to be the main computer of the computer room, typing a few things into it and opening a few UIs. The device-stacked walls of the room move backwards, before sliding into the ground as sets of luxurious looking chairs replace them, as well as a cabinet. Praecantatia opens up the cabinet, revealing rows of helmets with visors hung up on them.

"Just take a helmet and sit in a chair." Praecantatia says happily. Stephanie immediately heads over to the cabinet, taking out a helmet and slipping it on before sitting in one of the chairs. Katie and I follow, each taking a helmet and sitting in a chair.

 

Ihra hesitates before doing the same, confused.

 

"Are you all ready?" Praecantatia asks.

"Yeah!" Stephanie says excitedly.

"Sure I guess." I say.

"Um, yes!" Katie says semi-nervously.

 

"Yep!" Ihra says, curious.
