Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[lefthandpath]

I... think they're probably a bit more complicated than that...

[though the claw marks are definitely pointedly more in that direction with things...]

Maybe we'll find spare outfits if we look in?

[gonna try Sekhmet's locker]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[purrrnicious]

[This locker’s been tossed. It was probably once clean and organized, but the belongings are all out of place, some chipped and damaged and discarded. There’s a knotted rope that once was connected from one wall of the locker to the opposite, but it’s been torn in two, frayed and shredded like it was roughly sawed through. A mirror is tipped over on a shelf, it’s cracked, and shows someone else’s reflection not your own. Written down the inside of the door is the phrase “Do you love me?” over and over again, getting more frantic and sloppy until it reaches the bottom, and there’s shredded pictures all over. They were drawings, simple and made by a child, but it’s impossible to tell what they once were as they’re torn to pieces.

Anything else in the locker is too damaged to identify, though you might be able to at least guess at the material (fabric, plastic, porcelain, etc.)]

[... oh.

now it just feels like he's intruding on something he probably shouldn't.

heeeeesitates... but then peering closer at the mirror?]

[Shrike of Avante is looking back at you.]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[lefthandpath]

[... uh. this doesn't seem to be i the right locker?

tries to see if it'll budge]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[purrrnicious]

[You can move it easily.]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[lefthandpath]

[time to see if he can't open Shrike's locker to find a place to put it?]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[purrrnicious]

[There’s something cold and clinical about this locker. It’s storing a number of basic, sturdy swords, a little beaten with use but serviceable. A box on top of a shelf is locked shut, with no key in sight, and on the back wall there’s a little doll, pinned with enough narrow daggers to the wall that it can’t be moved. On the inside of the door there’s a poster that looks out of place: it’s one of the propaganda posters from the Hotel Lobby, taped up, and it looks like it’s covering up something else as the corner of another piece of paper is just barely peaking out.]

[lefthandpath]

[oh whup brb helping Kaguya]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[lefthandpath]

[ok getting back to this--

... peeling back the propaganda poster a bit to see what this other piece of paper is about?]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[purrrnicious]

[The paper is a child’s drawing, brightly coloured. It shows Shrike and Kohime, smiling and holding hands. The scenery is (probably) green trees and sunshine, with a plate of what’s supposed to be spaghetti between them. They look happy, it’s been drawn with some care.]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[lefthandpath]

[...

you know what.

TAKING DOWN THE PROPAGANDA POSTER.

and finding a way to get the mirror in safely.




also, taking a sword. sorry but might be needed???]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[purrrnicious]

[You put a PROPAGANDA POSTER in your inventory, remove a sword, and somehow cram a mirror in there.]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[sunflowering]

If it's outfits we're looking for...

[ Er... maybe Sabre? She'll peek inside her locker too. ]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[purrrnicious]

[It’s a mirror. The reflection is you, but it’s somehow dark, it feels distorted but you can’t explain how as if you focus on individual features they look correct and normal.

You feel the urge to shatter it. You don’t care if the jagged edges would cut you. You think the blood would feel satisfying, somehow.]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[sunflowering]

[ . . . The mirror is strange, and she's confused staring into it. Even more so by the sudden urge to- ]

Ah--

[ She pulls back after having punched the mirror, blinking in surprise at her own actions, as a bit of blood drips down her knuckles. ]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[purrrnicious]

[You don't feel any better. Maybe if you punch it again. . .?



And again?

And again?

And again?
And again?

And again And again And again And again AndagainAndagainagainagainagain––]

Re: Lvl. 1: Training Hall - Locker Room

[sunflowering]

[ PUNCHING... AGAIN? Also again...

And again. AND AGAIN. ]

[dbmssb PUTTING SHRIKE MIRROR DOWN GENTLY SO HE CAN GRAB HER PUNCHING ARM WITH ONE HAND WHILE THE OTHER SLAMS THE LOCKER DOOR SHUT]

1/2

[sunflowering]

That--!

[ Was in the middle of hauling back for another punch until suddenly it's slammed shut!?? ]

2/2

[sunflowering]

[ . . . !?? ]

I... huh?

Re: 2/2

[lefthandpath]

[YES AND NOW HE IS GOING TO BE INSPECTING YOUR SHREDDED KNUCKLES]

Ahhhh... should've expected that one. Sorry.

Re: 2/2

[sunflowering]

[ On retrospect punching a mirror hurt like whoa. ]

AH- I'm sorry. I'm not even sure why I...?

[ But she lets him inspect her hand. It's bleeding!! ]

It's fine. I can just rip a bit of fabric from my dress.

Re: 2/2

[lefthandpath]

If you're sure... you'll want to at least wash away some of the blood to make sure there's no glass stuck in.

[indicating the sink]

Re: 2/2

[sunflowering]

Yeah--

[ MAN KAGUYA. You weirdo. No punching mirrors. Lifting a hand up to her injury to lick it once she's taken her hand back. ]

Did you find anything to wear? There was only a mirror in this one.

[ Also approaching the sink to wash up. ]
