GRAVEYARD

[cartesio]

The other side...?

Have you started feeling at home in Cartesio yet? The town has offered you every hospitality that its citizens could think of. They love every corner of this town and they want you to feel the same. Have you accepted Cartesio into your heart yet?

Then it should be comforting to wake in your hotel room. A ceiling you have gotten used to, the warmth of a blanket surrounding you, your own breathing... and silence. All-encompassing silence.
It perseveres when you leave your room, it perseveres when you leave the hotel... Cartesio is quiet because there is nobody in Cartesio who could be making noise. It's a ghost town.

There is only you now, you think. And then, just as you've given up, a noise comes to your ears. A voice, unmistakably. It's time to follow it.

As of Week 5 you may see random objects and buildings of any size flicker. For milli-seconds they seem to glow on and off, blur around the edges, even distort a little. It only happens for a moment at a time, but it happens fairly often.

Welcome to the Cartesio Graveyard. Your character has woken up in a version of the town that is devoid of citizens, but there do seem to be a few people around. Time to explore the mysteries of the other side. For a more thorough OOC guide, we have compiled an FAQ.

Not sure if I'd call him the romantic type.

[ Rubbing the back of his head. ]

He definitely has his cute moments, yo. I was pretty surprised.

[ Nine don't say that. He is smiling though so he's happy at least? ]

[integratedsoul]

That counts!

[ What a weird situation though... Nine who thought he had no life left, dying twice and still finding love... Is that sad? Is it beautiful? Both? Cian can't quite tell. ]

Life goes on no matter what, huh?

[linearcrash]

[ Both? Probably both, especially since his goals have shifted. It'll be a lot longer before he can be with the rest of Class Zero again. ]

Yeah, that's right. Same goes for you, you know.

cw mild suicidal ideation??

[integratedsoul]

... yes, it appears so. Can't escape it, no matter what.

[ It's said while smiling, but Cian is really having a bit of trouble adjusting to the thought of death not being the end. Everything gets a lot more complicated that way. ]

thumbs upp

[linearcrash]

You're telling me. That's why you should make the most of it, yo. Even if we're only here until he's done or we fix shit for the others, you know?

[ Hey, guess what? Nine is still pretty sure he's joining his sibs at the end of this. ]

[integratedsoul]

That's a little scary, isn't it? Just... existing on but until a totally uncertain time.

I mean, it was scary before, with all the murder... But this uncertainty is somehow a little worse.

[ And she laughs a bit, because really, what else can she even do anymore. ]

did you order more of Nine being like this.

[linearcrash]

Yeah, it can be. But you aren't alone.

[ He knows this. He's known this before dying again and before even Cart.

I'm not alone. Not at all. ]

Look, you have the best company, yo. I'm planning on sticking around until after I find a way to get everyone else alive and where they need to be.

[integratedsoul]

You'll still... accept your end then.

[ Cian knows it's more than hypocritical to feel sad about it, but it's difficult to swallow the emotion. ]

[linearcrash]

Yeah, I do. I belong with the rest of Class Zero, yo. We made our choice together.

[ And he can't...fathom being without them long term. It's been rough already not having them, but he has a mission to throw himself. ]

[integratedsoul]

Bakugou-kun is going to be sad.

[ She understands his resolution intellectually, she really does, but... being left behind sucks. ]

[linearcrash]

[ That's not fair busting out the big guns like that. Looking away for a moment. ]

I'll worry about that when we get there, yo.

[ There have been developments Nine is still trying to puzzle out between them. ]
