Time: Afternoon | Weather: Heavy Snow
After some semi-awkward staring, He sighed.
"Might as well."
Ardin, meanwhile, facepalmed.
"You do realize that this is Limbo? As in, everything that dies comes here...so everything you kill here just comes right back and gives us extra paperwork."
The elevator stopped at what looked like a gloomy, depressing factory...with hellfire in the background, the sounds of pitiful screaming filling the air, freshly-made Chillies scurrying around everywhere in an attempt to escape before getting dragged away by older Chillies, and smooth jazz originating from somewhere on the ceiling.
"Ah, nothing like some fresh Chillies in the afternoon~! All right, listen close, because I'm going to make you do the other half of my work for me!"
Arella walked over to a large, glass-like cylindrical object in the middle of the room, in which some other random souls were stuffed.
"Pretty easy...you just press this big red button on the side, here...and, bang! Instant Chillies! Of course, that would be boring, so we have more buttons to play with!"
After pressing the big red button, Arella started pressing a bunch of other labeled buttons.
"This one releases the wasps, this one fills the room with an unhealthy balance of poisonous gasses, this one makes spikes jut out from the sides, this one sets everything on fire..."
A few buttons later, Arella got bored and let the conversion process end naturally. The cylinder lifted with a 'ding!', and out came a whole bunch of traumatized Chillies.
"See, now wasn't that fun? âĨ Okay, now you get to try!"
It wouldn't take very long for Larya to arrive with the others. Feeling pretty awesome, she kicked the door open.
"Hey, hey, Magic Man! Brought some guests!" she announced.
"Yep. Definitely a trap." Dicro commented.
"But that's okay, 'cause traps are---" Fray stopped abruptly...something just felt weird.
Ignis would find that the whole getting-into-your-avatar thing was probably even easier than expected. In a split second, he would find himself looking through Fray's eyes, which was probably a little disconcerting because semi-lolis or short. Regardless, it worked, and that's what matters!
"Huh. That was funny, kind of felt like---" her thoughts (which Ignis could hear effortlessly) were cut off by dicro waving his hand in front of her face.
"Are you okay?"
"Huh? What! Oh, yeah! I'm cool. I was just gonna say that traps are fun! Where would life be without them? âĨ"
Flyri held out a hand for a goodbye handshake...and, suddenly, her eyes lit up.
"Wait! This isn't goodbye! I can still see you! I just have to...oh, how could I forget!" she spun around, pretty flowers somehow popping up out of the snow-covered ground around her.
"I'll be back tomorrow, okay? I'm going to look a little different...but I promise, it'll still be me! And then we can do friend things~!" Flyri smiled, waving and starting to skip away.
wut
Ara nearly had a heart attack.
"O-Oh...! W-When did you two get here...?" she asked nervously, wondering if they saw any of the craziness with Opine. It was bad enough that it looked like she just shook Aita to death...
Poice knocked on the open door.
"Better?" (:
"Oh, don't try to kiss up to us! I'm not going to say anything nice about you!" Ciess huffed.
"What floor are you going to, anyways? We still have to find Lady Umbra before we ditch this place. Well, we don't have to, but it's not like there's anything better to do."
"Sure! Umbra's been accepting new members lately...she'll probably be back here soon. Probably. She's not really picky, so you might as well consider yourself in now!"
Nette stepped back to avoid Charteuse, then focused back on Exuro and Seraye.
"Uh, yeah, who are you...? Please tell me that you're not a stalker or something. I mean, I know everyone wants to be pedo for me because I'm awesome and all that, but come on!"
oh nette
