Game 115

Who: BLANKS AND STUFF
Where: ARENA AND PLACE
When: Day 183, midmorning
What: ~A GAME~

I heard a rumor that there was a game today! A game! A question, an answer! An answer and a question! Or maybe it is just a picnic! A hang-out for us. I invite you to a shindig! I heard a rumor that there was a game!

[clamoring towards]

You're alive! [strained laughter] I was starting to think you all were exaggerating reviving from death.

[Forcing himself up into a sitting position as soon as he can reasonably manage it.]

Not exaggerating. It just... takes awhile sometimes.

I don't know how I survived it... you were all -- I really thought you all were gone for good.

...you weren't even hurt?

Finally, a piece of luck.

I was... but, I don't know. [looks himself over, maybe for the first time] After I woke up, I climbed out, and you were all dead.

[keeping it together, but in a fragile way. he didn't expect game deaths to be quite so awful, somehow]

We're not now.

[Trying super hard to sound assertive and confident and like he doesn't feel like shit. He is doing a pretty good job. :|b]

The judge put us back the way we were.

As promised. It just... I have to admit, I was getting a little worried.

[paying more attention to his own body now, forcing himself to smile]

At least the judges do a nice clean up job.

Nothing's missing, anyway.

[Casting around for his staff before picking it up; it is battered, but oddly in one piece. The rope that had tied it to his wrist is gone, though.]

[taking a deep breath]

Games always that bad?

Re: REVIVALS

Not always. It's better to be prepared for the worst, though.

Yeah. I don't think I'll be underestimating them again.

Re: REVIVALS

[identity profile] byallmeans.insanejournal.com 2010-10-23 12:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm. It's best not to.

The most we can do is learn from this one and move on.

Do you think you'll be able to walk on the way back?

Re: REVIVALS

[shakes away his thoughts]

I'm completely fine. Isn't everyone?

Nebula seems okay. I'll manage. Rose might need a bit of help.

Just let me know how I can.

Keep an eye on her. If she looks like she's going to fall down, keep her from doing it.
