✭ 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?

-Ah.

[ah.]

[yes, now thins make a little more sense. And she has absolutely no means to protect herself, she knows.]

Didn't I warn you that the people here are truly wicked?

[ Shouldn't she teach her a lesson? That seems appropriate to do--that way this will never happen again. If she can make her live her life in fear, then maybe she'll gravitate towards the safer floors... ]
loved2many: (If you see that girl again)

...

You chose to be a monster then? Or is that why you kill?

[it's odd. She'd heard of the dangers and knew it had to happen eventually but this was... odd. Strange. Not what she'd expected.

Had the Tower turned this girl into someone who called themselves a monster? What a depressing though.]

Hm, I didn't exactly say who it was that considered me a monster.

[ Mostly the other monsters, especially the mermaids. Those poor mermaids. ]

Anyway, why else does a monster kill? Survival, isn't it?

I'm no threat to you.

[personal profile] angramaintsu 2013-07-09 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[ If only she knew. ]

Hoh, is that so?
loved2many: (Default)

[to be fair, it was an objective statement regardless of Rin's link to Angra Mainyu]

I have never killed anyone, and I have no skills of my own in that regard.

[ A pause to consider something, then she makes the assumption that: ]

Didn't you send your youngest child to her doom?
loved2many: (Uso-)

[...blink]

W-What?!

[personal profile] angramaintsu 2013-07-09 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Augh--I was wrong?

[ This would be the first time she's met someone from her actual timeline as she peers towards her. ]

No, I can't be wrong. I'm never wrong! [ She proudly declares. ]
