week 4

[Four weeks in the Starfield Penitentiary and seven people have lost their lives to Blaze Dudely's cruel game. At some point the robots cleaned up the mess left behind and by Sunday the involved rooms (including the fridge) are all clean and free of blood. In fact there's no sign left of any of the deaths that have happened on the ship so far by at least the next day. The only physical signs that people are gone are the empty beds.

On Sunday morning, you may find that you're recovering a a few other things as well - both strange dreams and some new items.

In addition, there's a new set of doors at the end of the corridor, in the space between the infirmary and the exercise yard. Looks like you've got a new wing to explore.]




Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

It's more that I'm confused about something.

You've had one of those weird dreams this week too, right?
tokencanadian: (Doubtful)

[personal profile] tokencanadian 2017-09-08 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
...Oh, yes. I did. You too?

[Well that's just a huge coincidence.]

It was about my sister.

[Her sister that she suggested, in conversations with other people, was super dead, but who even knows if Pyrrha remembers that.]

Or...at least I think it might have still been her. There's stories where I come from - you die, you become a Pokemon and live out the rest of your ghosty days-

-but I never knew for certain whether or not they were true.
tokencanadian: (Doubtful)

Your... sister?

[It's possible that she's forgotten. Everything's happened so much since those conversations.

Then again, Pyrrha tries to be very attentive.

You become a Pokemon when you die? [sounds strange but ok] What do you mean...? Cheryl?

[Worry intensifies.]

The real Cheryl is dead, Pyrrha.
tokencanadian: (Noticing)

[personal profile] tokencanadian 2017-09-08 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Wh... What? [Whoa, Cheryl. That's not somthing you just spring on someone.]

What does that mean?
heartswapped: (marrow and blood encircle me)

a million CWs in here

It means exactly what you think it does.

[Her sister is gone. And as much as Blaze's words echo in her mind, she's not. coming back.]

I took her name because it was the only part of her I could save. There was my niece and nephew to think about, and...

[She shakes her head.]

For all I knew, she was right.

For a while, I thought it should have been me.
heartswapped: (my bloodstream chokes)

Okay sorry I had to add something on to here.

My name's Elaine.

But it's been years since anyone called me that.
tokencanadian: (Down)

[personal profile] tokencanadian 2017-09-09 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
You took your...[She shakes her head.]

I'm... I'm so sorry. But, I'm having a hard time following all of this. You've been... lying about being Cheryl? This whole time?

[Elaine doesn't answer that, but she does shift around a bit.]

I was seventeen. Guess everyone fucks up at that age, but...

I tried to be her. Use our gift to switch bodies; that ended up being too hard, so I settled for her memory instead.

But no matter what I did, it never worked.

It was still me.

Eventually I just sort of...gave up, but the name stayed.
