Day 296 — VR MarinaNova — After the doors close
[Maybe you saw a glowing door open and avoided it or maybe you have no idea anything just happened, but you know something is up now because everything just went dark. Seriously dark. No ambient light of any kind. The kind of dark that makes you wonder if something's wrong with your eyes. Oh, and there's a siren going off from the speakers on the floating island. Don't worry, that will end in about thirty minutes, but you're not so lucky when it comes to the dark.

The kiosk was open earlier, but it's gone dead now and the maintenance bots are in the same condition. As a bonus some people are missing too! Welcome to Day 296.]

(OOC: This mingle is for those who did NOT go through the doors. EVENT INFORMATION)

	Me and him? Enemies. [ It's not nearly as simple as that. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Anyone who knows what it's like to have a burning, searing, all-consuming ball of guilt in your chest? [ Quirks a brow. ] Doubt it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Maybe there's an argument in there that the people supporting you don't have to have experienced the same horrors as you. But that would make Nico a hypocrite. His main excuse for pushing people away is that they can't possibly understand what he's been through, what he's going through.]

I wouldn't say it's a burning, searing, ball of guilt. There is guilt. Pain, sorrow, anger, grief ... shame. All consuming is apt. It's cold. [He can unleash it, weaponize it, make others feel what he is feeling. Kill all the vegetation.] I met Akhlys, the goddess of misery, once. She said I was perfect.

	[ Wait hold up what is this. What is happening. ] ...What are you saying right now? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't have a demon at odds with my soul, but ... I get it. I mean, I don't know exactly what you're feeling. No one can. That's all you. But, I guess ... I understand. [He doesn't know what's happening. Or where he's going with this.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Goddamn this is getting way too close for comfort. He gives Nico a long, unsure look. This was a conversation he never expected from pretty much the last person he thought it would come from. Better excuse himself before it gets even stickier. ] Sure you do. [ Scoff. ] I'm going to find something to set on fire. You coming? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Tsk. That wasn't easy to say. Asshole.] Oh. Um... Yeah, sure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Give him some credit here. This conversation was about 100% longer than it was ever supposed to be. ] Come along then. [ And as soon as they've found some light that can go separate ways, that's what he'll be doing. ] (Reply to this) (Parent)
