Aria: Combat!?

08-Apr-2023
Aria: Oh my gosh! Mei...?Meimona: Whew! I finally caught up to you!Meimona: There were so many dangerous beasts back there!Meimona: Are you okay, Aria?Aria: Yes, I'm fine!Aria: More importantly, Meimona... you made it!Aria: I can't believe it, I'm so happy to see you again!Meimona: Haha, likewise!Aria: Were you hurt at all!?Meimona: Nope! I landed on the soft snow. Meimona: I owe it all to my incredible luck. :3Meimona: I'll be real though, ummm... Meimona: It was scary being alone for a while there...Meimona: But you know who I found!?Meimona: That's right: Nino!Aria: Oh, oh my...!Meimona: Mhm! We should hurry up and meet with him...Meimona: Before any more bad things show up! Aria: Interrogate. -/-/-/-> It talks like her, it acts like her... But there's no way that's her. Just look…

Meimona: Flashback.

Right... your family. Your siblings are the children of Nadine, the master of the Birdnest, a large system of farmlands in the overworld. Just like her, they're nothing short of impressive. Your eldest sister, Layla Aquila, often went hunting in faraway places. She'd bring back plenty of spoils, and delicious prey from nebulae in the depths of space! But you never knew how she found her way through the sandy clouds of the overworld. And Meitham Grus, your eldest brother, was always willing to take you anywhere you wanted in the sky. In fact, he'd frequently escort every other sibling of yours on their outings too. He's simply that dependable of a brother! Yet, you never asked how he could find the way home so consistently. Siblings are meant to…

Be Meimona.

You are now Meimona. You have no idea where you are. Meimona: What do you see? Sand. A sea of pale gold, stretching as far as the eye can see. It is reminiscent of the overworld, of... Your home. -/-/-/-> But that can't be where you are! After all, you can still make out the lining of the barrier. Unfortunately, it seems that you remain a caged bird. But in which part of the cage did you end up...? Meimona: Can you tell where you are? That sandy mountain you tumbled from... that's where the rift was. It is as if you crossed over from an unintended direction. Maybe this is a place in the monster world, then? The sunlight here is certainly brighter than anywhere you've been to in…

Be Nino.

25-Mar-2023
You fail to be Nino. Try as you might, you simply cannot. For you see, it's still not the right time for that. So instead, you go back to being Reed. There's no escaping this situation just yet. Reed: Engage in COMBAT. Five: Reed!Five: R-Reed's bleeding!Reed: I'm fine.Reed: Stay behind me. Of all times to run into a goddamn beast. The sly thing crept up on you. It must've been stalking for a while, just looking for an opening to strike. No matter. You'll take care of this swiftly. Reed: Attack. Your wind cannon barely does anything to stop this thing. This calls for more destructive measures... Rimehound: Attack. Even though you wouldn't want to risk alerting any monsters nearby with something loud, you've left with no other choice. Reed:…

Be Reed.

18-Mar-2023
You are now Reed. You've just managed to squeeze through a rift. And someone's here with you. Reed: ...Are you hurt?Five: No...Five: That's Five's question to Reed!Five: Five fell, but Reed protected Five...Five: Is Reed hurt?Reed: ...No. Don't worry, this is nothing.Five: Sorry, Reed...Reed: It's fine.Reed: Look. I can move around just fine, can't I?Five: But, but... Reed: Do something to reassure her. Five: Whoa!Reed: See.Reed: Didn't I say I'm fine?Five: Reed is... so strong!Five: Reed can lift Five so high up!Reed: That's right.Reed: Nothing's going to hurt me.Reed: So you have nothing to be scared of.Five: Wow... Five can see everything from here!Five: Snow, lots of snow...Five: And a lot of red.Reed: That's frozen water. Don't let the color scare you.Reed: Hang on... is my disguise on, Five?Five: Oh...…

Be Aria.

You are now Aria. Aria: Check surroundings. You've just painfully tumbled down a hill. Beneath you is a layer of... snow? Soft enough to lessen the impact of your fall, but not enough that it didn't hurt at all. Still, it wasn't painful enough to disrupt your focus. Your disguise remains in effect. Aria: Can you tell where exactly you are, and if the others are with you? A landscape of snowy mountains. Hardly any sunlight, even though it's morning. And in the distance, you see that familiar tower again... It looks like you've made it to the other side. But... what about everyone else? Aria: Look for the others. Aria: Nino?Aria: Mei? Meimona...?Aria: F-Five...? Reed?Aria: Where are you...? No response but the cold, harsh wind. You take a look…

Lune: Report Kaji's status.

11-Mar-2023
Selene: ...Oh. You're concerned about that. Selene: Ok, uhm, I guess you've never been drunk before, have you...Selene: Don't worry, we can keep your beautiful innocence intact, Selene: Since you have lil' ol' me here to tell you aaaall about it!Selene: Anyways. It's different from person to person.Selene: Sure, a glass of water after waking up may sober him up with less of a headache, but I doubt you need to be there to do anything, ultimately. Selene: Someone used to drinking this much knows how to deal with it on their own.Selene: Besides, if you're gonna pretend to not have seen anything anyways...Selene: Then you don't wanna be there when he wakes up! -/-/-/-> Lune: ...So you've already known about Kaji's drinking habits.Lune: I guess it was only me…

Suvillan: Discuss with Corona.

05-Mar-2023
Suvillan: I'm not certain, but...Suvillan: I believe that I just felt a disturbance.Corona: You mean by the barrier?Suvillan: Yes. Perhaps a human dares intrude on my domain again.Corona: Oh, jeez! Today of all days?Corona: You're kidding me.Suvillan: It was faint, so I can't say for sure.Suvillan: But still... -/-/-/-> Suvillan: ...I was under the impression that this matter was dealt with.Suvillan: Was I wrong, Corona? Whoa! He's mad! He's really mad! You're his best friend, and he's THIS mad at you based on an unconfirmed hunch!? What are the chances that a human really crossed the barrier again? Furthermore, what are the chances that it's the same human from before? That blonde girl with the blue eyes... -/-/-/-> No, there's no way. That's a ridiculous idea. If that human escaped,…

Ruit: Oh. Ruit: Pardon me. -/-/-/-> Ruit: My hand slipped. -/-/-/-> Corona: Woah. ????: My word! ????: Your highness, you alright!? ????: Ah. Seems it was a bad call to drag him to the public this early, commander. Corona: Huh? The hell are you talking about? ????: Clearly, you've cut his highness' rest short with your antics. -/-/-/-> ????: But you still insisted on conducting this meeting now!????: Uuueh, what am I even a spokesman for? You never listen to me...Selene: Hah!? Watch it, Minos, do you know who you're talking to?Minos: Even if you're the royal advisor, I-I shouldn't have agreed...Headmaid: My prince, are you feeling unwell?Ruit: I'm alright.Ruit: Don't make a fuss.Minos: No, n-no, this must be my fault!Minos: M-my proposal must've been too shabby for his highness...Minos:…

Nino: She can catch up, all you have to do is believe.

Birds certainly can fly against the wind, and ride the current to push forward. But could a winged that hasn't flown even once for years accomplish that much? It's impossible for Mei to do anything right now. Nino: Turn back. Save Mei. Turn back? But you have to keep going forward, don't you? After all, you can't waste your fortification, and your destination is right here. Nino: Let go. But, hey, you know... that thing you said before? About flowers growing everywhere else. It's true. You wholeheartedly believe in it. So why are your actions not following through with your words? Instead, you find yourself moving faster than you can think. The barrier pulses, and so does your heart. Panicked, palpitating in unison. As if to say, "if you don't…

Party: Strengthen your grip!

18-Feb-2023
Total darkness. You can hardly keep your eyes open in the face of this intense wind, but that's what you're met with when you try. It never was like this before. You have no clue what's happening right now. And unfortunately, it seems the same is true of the resident crossing-expert here. Party: Keep going while holding hands. Boyfriend: M-meow... Party: Panic. Boyfriend: MEOOOOW! Meimona: B-Boyfriend! Boyfriend: MEOW... Party: Don't panic. The wind is so strong that it flung a cat as small as Boyfriend away... But now you realize, the reason Boyfriend and Five managed to keep up thus far is Ludwig's support. Somehow, he's not as affected by the pushback as the rest of you are, perhaps due to his non-corporeal parts. Thank god you brought them along.…

Party: Enter rift.

----> Meimona: Uweh, so bright!Meimona: I can't keep my eyes open...Nino: I've got you, c'mon!Reed: Just keep moving forward.Meimona: Okay... There it is again. Warm light enveloping you, the same as the last time you crossed over. Such a mysteriously calming presence. Yes, this'll go just fine. From here on, you just have to keep going... Until you reach the other end. Meimona: ...Um.Meimona: Is it just me, or is it getting pretty windy now...Reed: I told you, there will be a feeling of being pushed back.Reed: We have to go against it.Aria: Is it supposed to be this strong, though...?Reed: ... Nino: Look behind you. Nino: Guys, the rift we passed through... Nino: It's closing up.Aria: Wait, what? Already? Meimona: N-no way! Does that mean we're stuck here?Meimona: Here,…

Mei: Wish on your luck that everything works out.

Reed: Here we are.Aria: The barrier...Meimona: Wuh, it's so funky-looking up close. Meimona: I've never gone through a rift before...Meimona: B-but it's gonna be okay to cross, right?Meimona: You guys all gotta believe so!Reed: It'll be fine.Reed: I've done this plenty of times before.Five: If everyone is together, Mei... won't be scared!Meimona: I-I'm not scared!Nino: Ha, sure you aren't. Meimona: No! Really, I just don't know what to expect! Meimona: So I just wanna prepare myself...Meimona: Can you tell me what it's like to cross? ----> Nino: It's not scary at all.Nino: From what I remember, there was bright, warm light from every direction.Nino: I felt a bit of pushback, like I was walking against a wind current...Nino: But nothing that could stop me from moving.Aria: Yeah, I had the…

Nino: Eat the flower.

04-Feb-2023
What? No. That's stupid. Who the heck eats flowers??? Not you, as far as you know. Nino: Nino you have to eat the flower. No. There's better things to do with glow-y flowers than that. C'mon, stop messing around and focus. Nino: EAT THE FLOWER. No! Shut up already! Seriously, why is that the first thing on your mind? You're not even particularly hungry! Nino: Poke the flower, it could have radiation... Radiation? Does that happen to flowers? Eh, you're no scientist. This one glows a strange green color, and... it feels somehow... Familiar? You will need to conduct further investigation on this matter, regardless of the fact that the flower may or may not be radiated. Nino: ...Wait, have you thought this before? Have you? Actually, wait... Yes! Yes…

Warty: L̸̜̃ą̵́n̴̲̏d̴̻̓ ̵̝͆h̸̘͝o. Nino: Reading time's over, pack it up. Meimona: Seriously... feels like my wingbones atrophied from sitting around.Nino: That's because you didn't try to pass time with something meaningful, Mei.Meimona: Yeah well, I'm not like that phone freak, or you two lovebird-nerds.Nino: H-hey, what?Meimona: Lovenerds for short!Nino: Don't say that, idiot!Meimona: Ummm, I mean...Meimona: You looked super-duper-wuper excited to read with someone.Nino: Okay, I don't expect you to understand, but listen.Nino: Reading is usually a very solitary activity. It's not every day that you get the chance to share it with someone else... that's all.Meimona: Sure, suuuure.Meimona: The reasons behind anything you do are sooo very logical, aren't they?Nino: I don't know what you're talking about...Meimona: Heheheh! Just calling it as I see it, bro.Nino: You're so confidently…
