imaginemeandyuu | Alma's unconscious game

((Alma's unconscious game goes here! I have put up a discussion plurk here since I know a bunch of the folks playing it don't use irc, any questions etc can go there. If for some reason you don't have access, let me know.

Since a large part of this unconscious is puzzle-based, if you need to leave and come back later: 1) you can handwave that you went along with the group or 2) if you want to explore everything yourself still, feel free to assume your character wandered off/back to check something (etc) -- but note that when you come back, you'll find whatever puzzles have since been 'solved' will remain 'solved'. It won't reset, so any paths that are opened or anything like that will stay that way.

That said, there are multiple things to do here, and changes still impact things, so if you oocly have to leave and come back, and when you do everything seems 'done', there are at least still things to look at and possibly multiple paths which you might want to do something about, so don't feel discouraged from starting back in after other people have opened doors or w/e)).

[He's not very good with anatomy but it's a bit easier when the right bits are holding together.]

Some parts may take scavenger hunting to find, but on the up side, this isn't a very large room.

[I don't know what to do with some of these fiddly bits, so I'm not making a pile of parts where some of the rebuild parts are already sitting.]

It slowly is coming together to form -- well, you. A younger you, but you.

[Pausing for a moment to just kind of... look at him.

So this is what happened?]

There's only a little left to go.

[And over here Alma is watching Alma stick body parts together (and them holding) with horror.

He doesn't move or try and get Alma's attention, he's just sick to his stomach watching the Alma to cut "him" up putting back together the Alma he cut up (because it's his fault, so why isn't he the one putting him together?).]

.... [Alma glances at him, but doesn't say a word.]

[...

Suddenly lunges out to grab hold of him the further he gets putting Alma back together.]

[Snapping up straight, eyes wide with alarm--among a lot of other feels.

He sucks in a breath.]

Let--[Breathes deep, trying to keep his voice steady.] Let me help.

..... [Wordlessly hands Kanda one of the parts he was holding. He reaches out to card his fingers through the hair of the child!Alma's head.]

[Takes it, dropping his head and closing his eyes for a moment. No, it's awful, but he shouldn't just leave Alma alone like this, or for other people to clean up, when he's the one who did it.

Opens his eyes, turning the part in his hand before looking up to find where it goes and... stick it in.]

[Crouching down to pick up another piece and offer it to Kanda, palm up.]

[Takes it and repeats the process. Okay, he can do this, he can handle it, he can put Alma back together...]

Slowly, and surely, you put the small body back together until there's only one piece left, a section of his face.

[moving silently up behind the other Kanda to help

[worst. bonding. experience. ever.]

After the body is complete, it opens startled eyes, drawing a shocked gasp -- then fades into nothingness in your arms.

The trap door opens. And, of course, you hear the ting ting ting of the red orb coming free in the archway.
