TDM 001!!

[ SEE GAME NAVIGATION TO READ UP ON HECK GAME BEFORE PLAYING IF YOU SO DESIRE ]

A) MAY I OFFER U PIE IN THIS TRYING TIME(GARDEN LEVEL)
[OOPS YOU DIED. WELCOME TO THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL. If you're new here, have a sheep cherub or imp slap a "HI MY NAME IS--" sticker on you, and frantically explain "DON'T WORRY, WE'RE WORKING ON IT, WE'LL HAVE YOU OUT HERE....AT...SOME POINT..." Wack. Also, you may noticed that your body may or may not have changed. What's up with that??? Who cares, at least you have as spiffy new cell phone! You're also told you're free to take the elevators up to Heaven or down to Hell. Good luck!

In the mean time--join the garden party that's going on! Or at least, it seems like a party?? Except all they are serving is pie. Apple pie. Blueberry pie. The classics. For you more Carnivorous types, there's stuff like mince pie, and...the name is smudged, but maybe don't eat that one unless you're a cannibal.

But along with a variety of normal pies, if you accidentally eat a weird pie, your character might experience the following:
Vinegar Pie - It's tasty but suddenly you're compelled to blurt out an Insult or ruthlessly tease the next person you see.
"Sweet" Potato - If you're a normally grumpy or aggro character, this pie will suddenly make you want to be more affectionate! This can be anything from wanting to hold hands or saying genuine nice things.
Humble Pie - Suddenly you feel complimenting or praising others and might downplay your own achievements, or insult yourself.

You can probably shake off the effects, but hey. Free pie!! ]


B) LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE (HELL LEVEL)
[TIME TO EXPLORE. Today in the Hell Level, the Hotel (Ho-hell? Helll-tel? Okay just Hotel) it's time for spring cleaning! Wait, didn't they just have that? An Imp says yes, but this is a different type of cleaning. Time to TAKE OUT THE TRASH!!!!

Which is to say, out of no where you might receive a PUNCH in the face by a local, or an imp! If the latter it's like being bapped by a sick little lamb. Still, even if a local punches you, you suddenly heal immediately? That's right, TODAY ONLY, this is a 'get into a scrap injury free' spring holiday, and you can rough house as much as you want with each other today in the Hotel, and NO DAMAGE will remain! Ever wanted to get cut in half and suddenly stitch back together? WELL TODAY'S YOUR LUCKY DAY.

If you're not into PG rated guro however, why don't you try exploring:
-The clubs! The nightlife in hell is FANTASTIC and genuinely fun!
-Games! Along with casinos galore, there are also normal arcades! Any game you can imagine, it exists.
-Or explore parts of Hell's Hotel that don't involve getting into a dogpile! ]


C) MARCH COMES IN LIKE....(HEAVEN LEVEL)
[TODAY IN HEAVEN THOUGH, there are advertisements for the ZOO!! A zoo in heaven?? Fuck yea!! But when you get there you see nothing but...........lions. And lambs. Just, everywhere. They aren't fighting though, but being super cute and soft and have tiny wings. You can pet them and pick them up--well the lambs at least. The lion might crush you. But you're dead anyway so give it a shot champ!!

Local angels explain that every 'spring' the zoo does this, and it's a sign of good fortune! You might wonder why you need good fortune in Heaven, but fuck it, when it Rome!! If you stick around long enough the zoo will change back to 'normal' and you can find other animals to gawk at.

If zoos aren't your thing though, check out heaven's:
-BEACH!! How is there an ocean and sandy white beach in the sky! Who cares, it's heaven! Beach episode time!
-Coffee shops! There are no coffee shops in hell! LIVE YOUR COFFEE AU DREAMS.
-Or just explore the Heavenly hotel in general!]

Zero Kiryuu ♦ Vampire Knight (Imeeji PGAU) ♦ Hell-bound

[bloodyrose]

• hell •

[ Out of one Hell and into another-? Zero has to question his luck all over again. This can't possibly be Tokyo-F, but also, Hell Proper was even more wretched and cruel than what the Producers put everyone through. Which screams volumes.

This place, though? Who knows.

At least he's found a ways to blow off any frustrations— namely, shooting games at the arcade, and if not that he's at a casino. Except rather than any traditional gambling, he's busying himself with a game(s) of darts, of which there happened to be endless. Every. Single. Throw. Hits the target dead center with a heavy thwack!. He keeps stepping further and further away, maybe obscuring his vision at times, just to possibly attempt to challenge himself more (easier said than done).

Who knows? Maybe someone's betting on his skill or something. ]

• heaven •

[ What should be a beautiful, bright and hot sunny day on the beach, is instead miserable for Zero. Why is he here? How did he even get to a beach of all places? It isn't exactly the ideal place for a vampire. Sure, he doesn't burst into flames, but the combined environment hurts his eyes and fatigues him like no other. At the very least he's sitting under a very wide-brimmed umbrella.

. . .Not that it prevents the sun's intense rays from causing any exposed skin to glint and ~*sparkle*~ like fine marble. Zero thought he'd escaped this when he finally found himself at home for some time, but we can't have good things. He's prettier without Twilight Syndrome, eat your heart out Edward.

(Can he leave already???) ]

un. kiryuu

If 'Imeeji,' or 'Tokyo-F' sounds familiar to anyone, I'd like to talk.

[addickted]

nope.

[Why did he....even respond, then.]

[bloodyrose]

Lucky you. Have you ever been abducted from your home world before?

[addickted]

what like by aliens or some shit?
nah
just died
which kinda feels like the same thing.

[bloodyrose]

A different death from what we were told here. . .?

[ Which frankly he doesn't believe. ]

Maybe I'm some one-off or whatever. This is my second time waking up in a world other than my own.

[addickted]

yea this one's some kinda accident
idk i was already dead
maybe all youse guys weren't but i was

whaaat for real
it's an epidemic
are you contagious??

[bloodyrose]

I was in one of who knows how many versions of hell, where we had to perform. That’s all I know.

[ . . . . ]

Yes. So very contagious. You’d better avoid me.

[addickted]

shit damn another version??
that's at LEAST the third i've heard of
performin is fun tho
unless ur like shy or some shit

haha
hilarious
were u a comedian

[succinainteasy]

[ Well, wouldn't you know it! Verosika just so happened to travel up the elevator today with every intention of soaking up some of that sweet vitamin d when she spots an unfamiliar face. While she's no social butterfly when it comes to the people here, this is a face she would remember.

He's cute and looks about excited to be here as she was when she first showed up. What's a girl to do? She cranes her neck down to peer under the umbrella, tipping her shades so she can peer over the frames at him. Don't mind the black bikini, Zero, she really can't help herself.

When you look this good, it's a crime to hide it. ]

Wanna talk about it?

[bloodyrose]

[ Even Zero's eyes, one opening to glance up to her with, is affected by the whole Imeeji corruption bullshit, given the way its normal shade of violet appears to be faceted and shine like a jewel. He probably should try to get used to this all over again. Not that the effects hurt, but it's annoying.

Does he want to talk about it? Talk about what. He just watches her for a few moments longer before closing his eye again. ]

That would take too much energy.

[ His exhaustion really is rather obvious, opposed to any real annoyance with her. (For now.) All he really wanted was some fresh air, dammit. ]

[succinainteasy]

Ha! You came to the wrong place if you're looking for some R & R, the angels are worse than the demons when it comes to twenty questions.

[ Claiming the chair two spots away from him, she lays back to relax herself and closes her eyes. If he thought he was free from prodding however, he's mistaken. ]

I'd remember those eyes. New recruit?

[bloodyrose]

Newcomer here, second time in hell.

[ Take that as you will. He legitimately means it. ]

Heaven

[charmdefensive]

Ooohhh, you look so daaaazzling~

[Though, the shadows hanging over Zero increase as a girl with horns leans over him, getting uncomfortably close.]

This doesn't look like just a skin product. Maybe I should try giving it a more direct investigation to learn more?

[bloodyrose]

[ Unfortunately, the most unimpressed look that Zero gives her is in sharp contrast to the way his violet eyes straight up Sparkle Like Jewels. He didn’t ask for this (present situation included). Still, there’s something sharp to the way he watches her.

He’s also incredibly tired. ]

Move any closer and I’ll break those horns off.

[charmdefensive]

So feisty.

[She does lean back, but she doesn't seem all that sorry for the intrusion.]

These are new, you know. I don't know how breakable they are. But I'm sure they benefit from the rest of my body's enhanced durability. Still~ I gueeess I won't risk it~

[bloodyrose]

"New," as in because of this place?

[ He has a bit of experience with that sort of thing, even apart from the issue with his skin and eyes. ]

[charmdefensive]

That's right. Are you telling me your dazzling looks are all-natural?

[bloodyrose]

No. They're an effect from the previous world I was in, among a few other things.

[ Still, he is rather pretty. ]

[charmdefensive]

A seasoned interdimensional traveler... How cool~ Then, did anything change when you arrived here, specifically?

➥ Text

[nestingdevil]

[Truth be told, there's a lot here he doesn't know. A different Hell, different worlds, different places.]

[Still, that's interesting, isn't it?]

sorry frined havent heard of eithr of those. bt beiing here thtt shuldnt be allthat surprising.

whtt is it youre lookin for exctly?

Re: ➥ Text

[bloodyrose]

It was another hell I was in. I wanted to know if anyone else here would on the off chance be familiar with it.

[nestingdevil]

oo h so youre from tha t other Hell? been a lott of those

didnt hear about those thigns youre talking about though. whats your nam e pal?

[bloodyrose]

Other?

[ He only knows of Imeeji. The fact that there are even more hells doesn't surprise him in the slightest. ]

Zero. And you?

➥ Audio

[nestingdevil]

[Text works just fine and dandy, but he's a creature of habits. Old habits. Besides, his claws make it a bit difficult.]

[When the audio picks up, the voice on the other side is rough. Rough and gravely, like stones churning to dust in a vat. Greed hums.] Another Hell. There's a few people from there. Not sure if it's the same one you're talking about, though.

[He drums his finger on the phone, making his nail clck-a-clck-clck atop the plastic.] Zero, then. The name's Greed.

Why don't you tell me more about this Hell of yours?

Re: ➥ Audio

[bloodyrose]

Probably not.

[ Or at least something tells him they aren't. ]

Those of us there were put on teams - made into idols to perform. We were forced into death and torture games by the Producers in charge, for the entertainment of the demons in Hell Proper. [ . . . ] Unlike here, we didn't supposedly die to get there. Death wasn't permanent, however.
