7 DAYS REMAIN

Seven days remain. As the last day of the festival draws to a close, the only thing of interest to note for the week is how great everything has gone. Not a single attack has been reported...

But things have already been set alight inside the hearts of those chosen few who have received the app on their phones. For some, it's just the first bite of the apple. For others, it's been like shaking down an entire tree. Things are beginning to look...strange. Surely there are more burning questions on their minds by now.

The warning bells of the Nightly Curfew ring across the city. There's a faint hum from the phone this time before the icon appears. This time it displays a time: 1:00AM

The rest of the night is normal. Perhaps you've cuddled up with family, or you've gone to bed early to wait, but sure enough, time tick by right until 1 in the morning when....

You're back into that application again. A single question before you're even permitted to type anything else. And while it seems to be overwritten by something inside of you, it feels a lot more natural than before. Which is, truthfully...troubling.

WELCOME TO THE FINAL QUIZ!
Answer from the heart, the part of you that has been denied for far too long.


Is your life here a lie?
Yes | Definitely | Sure | I've had my doubts before, but yes | Hell Yes | There is no other conclusion | I wish I could deny it and live here peacefully but it's true.

Thank you...that will be all. Let us see what your heart blooms into...

Once you are done, you are tossed once more into the main chatroom. Now your user names are the names that you wrote down in the last survey, but with all those questions it's....hard not to think of them as your own. Maybe you'll be cursing at this device, but it looks like you're already deep down the rabbit hole by now.

[OOC: This is the final network post before Awakening. Users will now be able to speak of who they are in their AU life without the information being blocked by the application.

Additionally, while they will not get any new on their own, speaking with Luci might grant the Awakened more memories...be careful that they don't get more than they bargained for.]

[Christopher is mostly doing anything that doesn't make him think too deeply about what is being implied in every answer given by this 'Luci' so he's latching on to anything not related to such. Which likely isn't all that productive either in the long run.]


It was at least something we all should have checked considering the last time. Most of us should have worried about such.

Maybe there's a way to find her off the app. I don't know enough about computers to know how, though.

I haven't, personally, not unless you count the suburbs, but I know several people from outside.

You're implying that we don't know what we know.


[He's smart enough to figure out the real point of that question. It lines up a little too nicely with his experiences so far, that's... Not the point. Luci's about, time to try and get some information.]

....Maybe there's no reason for them to hide where we are, in the broadest terms, at least anymore. But I already suspected that- everything from that first contact, the warnings in its "TOS", made me think of the recent murders. It's not something that's really a problem anywhere else in the world.

....Have you tried talking to "Luci"?

Is your life here a lie?
I wish I could deny it and live here peacefully but it's true.


[Yikes. Not at all where all his theorizing pointed him. Unless they're being slowly brainwashed into lives that are lies, or...something. He's not about to believe that this isn't his life. As right as the answer feels, he knows with his head that it's preposterous.

Feelings, the heart, they're known to do all kinds of things that make no sense. Right? He's...going to set that little internal conflict aside for now.]

What, no vision this time?

There has to be a way, doesn't there? Nothing starts that can't be stopped. All things end eventually.

[A little morbid, for him, but the app hasn't been very forthcoming for him, as far as things that aren't morbid go.]

It is strange that this is limited to only us, and so detailed and specific. Could we have all done something specific sometime before this began, and that's how we first got involved?

[There's a brief tug at his memory: two weeks ago, finding a strange app on his phone, and hitting Hell Yes in response to a frustrating and incomprehensible TOS. It seems like years ago; he couldn't have imagined this question now.

Not that he's thought all that hard about it himself. At least, in this direction.]

do you agree with it?

an alternate reading. i hadn't thought of that.

[Everything is too confusing, to the point where he doesn't know where to turn. He should have thought of the kanji writing of his own name, and how it and Utsugi share at least half in common. And is that a coincidence? Or just another headache-inducing mystery?]

time only stopped once, didn't it? last week.

[It's hard to remember if that was what it was. With the world sleeping and still, it was impossible to be sure.]
kokuyoyo: (And the cops are back.)

Do you think it will help? Last time...

[It's okay, Rommy, he's not freaking the hell out like he did last time. Maybe quivering with humorless, silent laughter, but not suffering the same intense confusion.

So he kind of maybe startles pretty bad when Romulus sits on him.]

...I'm okay. [No, he isn't.] It's all lies, remember? We don't have any other brothers and I'm not interested in killing anyone.

[They've talked about this. He's reaffirming it to himself as much as he's trying to reassure his brother.]
transient_specter: (okay that hurts)

[personal profile] transient_specter 2017-05-28 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
Does it matter? I want to keep you safe.
kokuyoyo: (I don't do stupid things anymore.)

[personal profile] kokuyoyo 2017-05-28 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
That's what I've been wondering this entire time. The only similarity I can think of is that we all live in the same city.... since it's letting us talk about that now, and the clues were there before.

But that's not enough. There has to be something else.

baalberith. [the loud one...] no one's said no, so far.

[In the midst of his misgivings about his own answer, he's looked around at others to try to find some kind of bearings. It's something he's gradually noticed. Among those he's talked to, he doesn't think all of them would have accepted this kind of outcome, if they'd thought of it at all. It feels like the rug has been pulled out from underneath their feet again, but this time a vision wasn't needed at all.]

7 days. i don't know if we can stop something, when we don't know what it is.

Heard of, yes. But... no, I haven't seen it happen. Is that weird? No one I know would be able to.

It is weird, isn't it? You wouldn't ask if it wasn't.

I'm from Germany. I lived there with my father. We lived near

[ ... It's not coming to her. She remembers odd details - she was pretty sure they lived near a forest? - but not the name. ]

Whatever. It's not important. Why the sudden concern about us leaving?

Is your life here a lie?
There is no other conclusion.



No. Like hell it is!

Listen you stupid app my name is Michi Yamashita. I have parents. A brother. I have a cousin that lives with me. They're all real. They have to be, they're my family! If my life is a lie what are they? I refuse to believe they're a lie... I wont stand for that! What about my friends are you going to say they're part of a lie too? I'm sick of it messing with my head! With all of us! It's really gone too far this time!

Is your life here a lie?
I've had my doubts before, but yes.


[Is that right? He clearly remembers typing this, knows he made this choice somehow, and yet. He's questioning his lack of doubts. Is this really his answer? Does he really believe this? Something deep down says yes, but his mind refuses to completely accept it.]

does this mean the visions are
a past life?

this life feels pretty real to me

[ Rommy spent time to mourn his new phone- he'd had it for barely a week!- before stealing one of his brother's burner phones, loading up the app to continue ranting at the wall of anonymous faces.

Except suddenly things weren't as anonymous as he'd thought
