PEACE WEEKEND

[airlockedmods]

[It's your first week here, and you've been offered a fantastic prize for killing someone: an all-expense paid vacation! It's a pretty standard prize as far as reality game shows go.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), this isn't exactly a game show.

It seems that no one has died this weekend, and the deadline for the prize is now expired. There's no announcement from the Overseers to that effect; in fact, none of you have seen either of them since Tuesday. Maybe they'll make a reappearance soon, but for now, it seems that you've got a moment of peace.

Hopefully nothing happens to it.]

[He shakes his head.]

Nothing to turn 'em back to. They're just... metal and wires, all powered by Magitek. Nothing to think with. If we tried sending them back to Niflheim, they'd just turn right back around and march right over us.

...

[She lets out a long breath, a sour twinge to the set of her mouth.]

I think that's something I wish wasn't so similar between us.

[photoshooter]

[Yeah. Well, what is there to say about that? After a moment, he just sighs in agreement and pats her shoulder. Solidarity, yo.]

We can worry about it once we get back. Right?

[challengesfate]

...Right.

[Perhaps they could help each other. MTs and the Risen seemed similar enough, then fighting them should be the same concept, right?]

At the very least...the closest thing we have to either of them is Zombina, but, she's...definitely not like any of the Risen from my world. She's completely different.

[photoshooter]

Yeah, she's just kind of... a human with a condition, really. I think the closest thing we've got here to an MT is the microwave in the kitchen.

...

The box that beeps and heats things up.

[challengesfate]

...Oh, that's what that does.

[Good to know.]

At least neither of our foes are actually here, then.

[photoshooter]

Heh. I guess that's one thing to be grateful for.

[This place is the worst, but it could always be worse.]

...One of a couple, anyway.

[challengesfate]

Right. Despite...most everything, there are still good things here.

[Like Prompto finding Lady Lunafreya! Yes she is counting that one.]
