Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

Another bit of a rush...

...there's another X on the middle left.

...Are you really playing tic-tac-toe with your bestial self?

 

It helps me calm down, so yes.
He places a circle on the bottom left.

 

It takes a minute, but you soon find an X in the top right corner.

Maybe you are in fact two different people...?

 

Who knows, maybe. Probably part of the lycanthrope curse.

Bardock looks around the grid and then places a circle on the top middle.

 

"Praecantatia's islands." Shadow Stephanie says.

A menu appears like my own, a small inage of Ihra on it along with multiple tabs.

 

“I’d wait for them to come back, then. But do whatever you want.”

 

"I should probably check on Artemis. She ran off crying after Myria got sacrificed to bring back Ihra, soul and all." Shadow Stephanie says.

 

“Hm. I won’t join, I feel like you could talk to her about it better than I can.”

 

"Problem is I have no idea where she is. She could be in the Shadow Realm, somewhere on Earth, or maybe she ended up finding Aj with Praecantatia." Shadow Stephanie shrugs.

 

"A likely place is a forest. Probably the one she has as her home on Earth. Or somewhere that felt meaningful to Myria. Those are my best guesses."

 

"Alright, I'll check her forest at home. Thanks for everything, Thirteen." Shadow Stephanie says, opening a dark portal behind her and stepping through, the portal collapsing afterwards.

 

I smile and walk away.

 

She looks for a quit button, even more confused.

Thinking about the curse, or just yourself, seems to pass the time.

An X is on the bottom center, and the other two squares are marked "Tie"

 

"Well. Guess I lose?"
He looks outside to see what time it would be.

 

Still dark as pitch, but the rushes seem to be calming.

There also seem to be claw marks on the rock.
And your hands are a bit bloody.

 

"Did I injure myself while playing the game?"
He looks at the X's and O's to see if there is any blood on them.

 

A tab with the words 'Exit' seems to be up the top of the menu.

 

Not really, but there's some blood on the rock as well.
Your bestial form probably tried to get out.

Ihra tries to press it, somehow.

 

As soon as Ihra touches it, she wakes up in her chair, the word 'Disconnected' appearing on the visor of her helmet.

 

She takes the helmet off, dazed.
