✭ Interested in finding out what's happened so far? Check out the plot guide and recap post!

To get you started, here are a few optional prompts for you to use if you so wish:

Prompts

1. [Setting: Elevators] Did you know it takes a half hour to get from the top of the dorms down to the cafeteria by elevator? Well you're finding out now! Strike up a conversation with the others stuck in there with you! Maybe play I Spy or something.

2. [Setting: Floor Eighty-Six] What's with all the mushrooms? And why are they in circles? That's weird--but maybe the mushrooms are edible? On the other hand, maybe you know exactly what these are--and you should really stop that idiot who's going to jump right in the middle of one of the fairy rings before he gets everyone on the floor turned to jell-o or something.

3. [Setting: Floor Seventy-Nine] Fancy some deep-sea diving? Grab some scuba gear, hop off the staircase, and explore some ruins! Just be careful you don't run out of air or run into a shark (or run into a shark while you're running low on air). Of course, if you can breathe underwater or just don't need to breathe at all, then the sharks would be your only worry. Try and find some treasure!

4. [Setting: Floor Fifty-Nine] Is this a torture chamber? Yes it is. Maybe you want to get out of here as soon as possible or maybe this floor really speaks to you. Maybe you want to give that iron maiden try on the first person who happens to wander by! On the other hand, maybe you got a bit too close to something and are about to take a spin in the racks yourself. Hopefully someone will come help you.

5. [Setting: Floor Thirty-Three] There's farmland on this floating island, and anything you can grow yourself is bound to be more reliable quality-wise than the cafeteria food. Of course, the recent odd storms have made a mess of this floor. Get to cleaning it up and then get to growing something!

6. [Setting: Floor Two] It's time for your first collar checkup! Go wait in the waiting room for your turn--maybe strike up a conversation and find out what this is all about! Or try to fight the worker units when they call for you, not that fighting them ever ends well.

7. [Setting: Anywhere] Whoops, you've gotten distracted, or lost, or you're still climbing up the stairs when night falls. It's time for the monsters to start prowling--and one's got its eyes (or whatever sensory organs it may have) on you! Time to fight back, or time to run?

[BE GLAD SHE'S TOO MUCH IN SHOCK TO CATCH THAT LAST COMMENT her daughter is eight, thank you very much-]

T-They're here?! All of them- wait, what happened to Sakura?

Well, no, your husband isn't here. Sakura got...sent away.

[And did he mention he promised Kariya he'd kill Tokiomi?]

But Kariya's still here. Rin's still here.

[...why. Why is Sakura always taken away from her.]

Was she... alright?

How's Rin doing?

[Tokiomi... will come, she's sure. Kariya she's met here already.]

Uh...

['Sorry lady your daughter had a good chance of spending the rest of her existence in the dead shell of her world?']

She was fine before she left.

And Rin's doing okay. As okay as someone like her can be.

[that gets a confused frown]

...How do you mean?

[because she was young?]
puppy_lancer: (Oh Johnny I hardly knew ye)

[personal profile] puppy_lancer 2013-07-09 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Well...uh...it's her magic. She doesn't practice the best school of magic and then there's the connection she has with the Grail. It's...it's hurt her.
loved2many: (You know better than anyone...)

[personal profile] loved2many 2013-07-09 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[...connection? ...School?]

...What are you talking about? What connection?

[it's plain from her expression this is the first she's heard of this]

I know this is probably a horrible surprise, but the Grail is corrupt. Like, it has all evils of the world sleeping in it. And somehow that evil got put into Rin.

...She's strong, though. She's been doing her best to fight it.
loved2many: (Uso-)

W-What?!

[he makes it sound so simple-]

I- She- what? How? How long has-
puppy_lancer: (Oh Danny boy oh Danny boy)

I don't know. Ever since she was given over to the Matou family?

[...

...what.]




...When.

Uh...when she was a kid? She was raised in their house.
