TDM 003 - SUMMER

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



A: Garden Level - OOPS YOU DIED
[CONGRATS YOU DIED. Sucks for you!! But Abe and Lucy are DETERMINED to get paperwork done and to do that, they need to get to know YOU.

So as soon as you appear, no matter if you're going to heaven or hell, you get slapped with a "HELLO MY NAME IS ____" sticker by one of the sheep. Said sticker has two possible effects:
-The sticker may say your "True" name or a nickname you don't like, or an alias, etc. How did it get there?? Paperwork. There is a chance it's blank and you can write your own name too.
-Whenever they see a person, they will be compelled to shout "HELLO MY NAME IS [their name] AND I LIKE [something they like.]"

We speed therapying this shit. ]



B: SUMMER HELL
[Whether you're a demon or an angel, eventually you may want to visit the HellRaiser hotel below! Hell is where all the HIP HAPPENING THINGS are after all. Want a lava bath? Go to a club? Gamble?? Just get fucking drunk? Hell's your place.

However, despite being the afterlife, even hell is not immune from the heat of summer. And it's taking the whole flames of hell thing literally. So!

-You might be minding your own business, and suddenly part of your body or clothing just, fucking ignites on fire. Good luck with that!
-You may get badgered by demonic vendors, trying to push various summer t-shirts on you.
-You might get roped into some demons fucking EMBRACING THE HEAT. Ever been tied to a giant fire spit oven an open flame?? YOU HAVE NOW. Maybe someone will help you, or you can handle yourself just fine.

Or you might get lucky and none of that happens and you're just vibing. Good on you!!]



C: Heaven is Central Air Conditioning
[Heaven-side, the heavenly hotel is its normal, luxurious self except for one key different. . .A/C. That's right, only the hotels in Heaven have working air conditioning. Fucked up!! So chilling up here might be the right call. You can always go visit the beach too, or any of the delightful coffee shops. Heaven also is the only place to get caffeine. Wack.

Of course, even heaven is prone to wackiness. Newbies may be prone to:
-Like hell, there are plenty of vendors up here, but instead of cash, today they ask for payment in...jokes? Better give your best one.
-Cherubs may be especially pushy and try to get you dressed in extremely stuffy/heavenly clothing. Enjoy your corsets and such.
-At the beach, if you sun bathe too long without protection, oops! You may find your skin (fur, scales, whatever) turning not red, but another ridiculous color.

OR AGAIN, JUST DO WHATEVER. WHOMST CAN STOP YOU?? You have a phone just text strangers do what you want.]




OOC NOTES:
-"Ash this TDM seems kinda half assed" IT'S SUMMER AND I'M TIRED also with July having no themed event I wanted this TDM to be pretty generic so people can hop in without worrying about timelines!
-This TDM is open to all! For now, you do NOT need to join the comm to play in it!
-Post questions for the mods here
-Remember, playing in the TDM does NOT guarantee your entry or app being accepted into the game proper later down the line!
-Apps open!! Be sure to read the rules linked there and check the current taken list!
-For current players: TDMs count as game canon AND threads may be used for AC if you wish!
-Remember regardless of your alignment, you are free to travel to whatever level you wish!

"What?" Diego pretends to be offended. "Cut that crap out, I always look amazing."

He shrugs and eyes Klaus' state of dress pointedly.

"You don't look much better."

He holds the offended look for one more moment before breaking it and hugging him with a laugh.
educated_wish: (i look ridiculous?)

"Not even a whiff of death. Not that i haven't wished otherwise."

Logan doesn't seem to have caught on to the fact that to be here, he had to have died.

"Ever died by alcohol? That's my most common attempt."
busball: (103)

[personal profile] busball 2024-08-12 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
"Sure sure. And bears don't shit it the woods." This is just playful jest because they've missed Diego and really all their siblings for so long by now. There's been nothing.

"It's hot fire chic. Cause I'm hot like fire." There's a cheeky grin about that one.

The hug gives him pause before he holds on tightly like someone that's not seen the person they're hugging in a long time. A long almost two years. Somewhere close to a year of sobriety. All of it has been something. And they're married now. The ring on their finger is the only thing that would show it.

"It's been fucking ages. What the fuck have you been up to?"
always_hits: (Default)

[personal profile] always_hits 2024-08-12 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
"Being dead. All incorporeal and shit. Not sure how I ended up here, you'd think this kinda shit would have happened right away, not after months have passed."

Diego pulls back and studies him, clueing into the ring almost immediately.

"What the hell is that?"
busball: (45)

[personal profile] busball 2024-08-12 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
"We've all been there, buddy." The wishing, anyway. It's been a long life.

"Oh yeah. Alcohol, drugs, multiple vehicles including a bus or two, starvation, electrocution, stabbing, my gut was slashed open once, been impaled by a buffalo horn, impaled by a harpoon." It's a lot of dying there.

"It's been like...probably in the ball park of a hundred times now? Oh..and like...on the ship I was stabbed by my husband's sword? Surprisingly, I died less on the Serena Eterna than I did back home and people were killing each other and themselves all the time. It was a real shitshow, honestly."
educated_wish: (Default)

[personal profile] educated_wish 2024-08-12 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
"What the fuck is a Serena Eterna? Sounds dangerous for everyone but you."

Maybe Logan should take a trip there. Meanwhile, he looks appreciative of Klaus' gift for dying.

You’re right, it could have been me. I can sit here and tell you that I would have taken your place until I’m blue in the face but it doesn’t solve anything. It doesn’t take the pain away, it doesn’t soothe the loneliness and it doesn’t turn back time.

[ he suddenly looks exhausted as he takes a seat on a nearby bench, folding his hands in his lap. ]

So tell me, Lucifer, what do you want from me? I can turn around, return to Heaven, and we can continue maintaining no contact with one another. An apology? There are no words in any language that are powerful enough to convey my feelings. My life? Take it. You’re right, I don’t understand it at all. How could I?

I sent the person I loved most here and was angry for so long that I can hardly recall what love feels like. When the rest of Heaven found out what I’d done, their admiration turned into fear. Because if I could do that to my other half, then no one was safe. When Father disappeared, I took His place and vowed that I would never let anyone else Fall. Do you honestly think I’d allow myself to thrive while not knowing what became of you? If so, you’re an even bigger fool than I thought.

[ his turn to lose his cool, but his reaction is a bit more subtle. he unfolds his hands and stares at his palms, letting Lucifer’s words sink in. if he believes he is simply playing a part, then that means he thinks he is as well. through gritted teeth: ]

I am not a pawn.

[ because if he was, it means everything he did was preordained and he never had a say in the matter. he was always going to turn his back on him despite how close they were, meaning their lives were never their own. they were lambs led to slaughter. narrowed blue eyes find red as he stares him down for several tense moments before looking away. ]

I don’t have to wonder, because I know. Do what you want, Lucifer, you always have.

[ the joke is well played but he knows better even after all these years. he wants to walk away, to cool off so he doesn’t say anything else that will fuel the fire but the laugh roots him to the spot. ]

Stop. If it hurts, then say it hurts. If you need to cry, then cry. This mask you’re wearing might fool them but I can see through it, whether you want me to or not. Even after ten thousand years, I haven’t forgotten your tells.
deerlisteners: (doesn't mean)

such a good friendship :|

Is that so? Actually, I'm sure he would be just fine if you went about your business without bothering him. You probably won't be here long, anyway.

[this is the TDM and Daily is full up on characters, after all! Wait. No -- he doesn't know that. But he does know a grand majority of people that end up here also end up leaving just as quickly.

He tilts his head, smile more of a sneer. Adam... He had the first man on the ropes before... that.
]

Hmph. Not surprising that's all you've heard. Well, I think I did quite a bang up job! A single Sinner lasting that long against an archangel! Unheard of. [he adjusts the lapels of his coat] But you can chalk up this color-scheme to the silly little sheeps' clerical errors. White is very much not my color.

"I don't remember you dying." That's gotta be weird. Klaus knows he's died a lot and Luther died. But the others were still alive last time he remembered.

Klaus looks at Diego and looks at where he's looking. "Oh this? Ha. Right. I forgot you haven't been here forever."

If that doesn't tell you something, well, Klaus doesn't know what to do for you. There is a sort of light emanating from him, a soft glow that's a little brighter at the moment. "Well...I got married. I've been away from home for like...a year. On this murder ship. Lots of murder. Surprisingly I only died like once. Weird, right?" A beat. "Well, I guess maybe this is another time? But what's one more in the grand scheme of things?"

[If he's listening, he's only paying enough attention to get what the demon's offering. Greed dismissively waves his hand.] Yeah, I'm sure it was lovely, I'm sure it was. But at what cost, hmn?

[He tilts his head, revealing the pitch-black shine of his throat. He shoots a glance over his shoulder when the demon moves behind him, and his lips squeeze together just so.] Besides, a little halfway to the wind yourself, huh? Eh, don't worry sweetheart, I got this one covered. And if it really bothers you, you can come find me at the 'Nest and give me what for later.

[Because like Hell (ha ha) he'd ever fight a woman, demon or not.]

[Greed turns back to Loop and shrugs his shoulders; a silent, "Can't be helped, huh?".]
I own a place. And for anyone new, the first drink's always on the house. [His tail curls up behind him and flicks once to send the spines at the end of it unfurling like a released, barbed-wire trap.] And before you start in on the whole trusting thing, I try to avoid making deals down here when I can. Call it a rule of mine.

[Does that mean he doesn't make them at all? Oh, ho, of course not. But that's for him and him alone to know. Loop will have to take it or leave it.]

[The Sin mindlessly drags a nail over his collarbone.]
The Devil's Nest. If you do decide to stop by, come and find me, won't you? Or, you can sit around here and see what our lady friend is offering. But I'll warn ya - the price might be a lot more than you bargained for.

"I guess it wasn't exactly dying. What is it the atupidass kids say nowadays? Unalived? I did that, literally. We all did."

He's a little confused by Klaus having a different story, but he figures this is a timeline thing.

"Well, shit. Congrats."

"A cruise ship. It was like a pocket universe where it existed. But it's fine." It's not fine, but why worry about it?

There's a slight shrug at this and they stretch. "Anyway. I think you managed to do the whole dying thing. You're here. So congrats, buddy. How's it feel?"

[ Mmmgh they'd rather just have gotten directions. Do they wanna. ]

[ ...yes. The booze is calling. ]

[ Without letting the smile drop off their face, they nod. ]

[ After a moment, they lift their arms in a silent offer to help carry the flyers. Whatever gets this over with faster. ]

"Did we? Huh. That's news to me." Klaus doesn't remember any of this. What the hell happened since he went chasing after Luther?

"Thanks! He's around here somewhere, I'm sure. Just a matter of finding him. But I bet I could scream free candy and he'd show up. He'd get kidnapped by weirdos in a white van in an instant."

"I kind of welcomed it after what Lila did. Though I guess you wouldn't know about that, if you don't know the other thing."

He still can't decide if he's more pissed or grossed out about that.

"Definitely sounds like your type."

Just because I don't want it to be me doesn't mean I want it to be anyone else. It shouldn't have been anyone. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. You would have taken my place? You wouldn't even join me in the first place.

[ michael sits and there's a quiet exhaustion to lucifer as well. he sits on the other end of the bench, looking up at the red red sky and not at his twin. ]

I'm mad about being abandoned and your solution is to offer to leave again? Right. I only ever wanted you to stay with me. Stand by my side. I always figured you knew that. I don't want to kill you either, don't be stupid. I don't want to kill anyone. I never—I never have.

[ but he'd killed alastor. and he'd deserved to die in return. that guilt, that guilt he deserves. but not the rest.

but he keeps listening to what michael has to say. he doesn't know why he does; maybe for the same reason he didn't try to force the matter with their father not meeting charlie. ]


If you missed me so much, you knew exactly what you could have done.

[ but michael wouldn't. lucifer's bitter about it, but he knows. if michael didn't fall with him in the first place, he wouldn't do it later with no extra provocation. but he doesn't want to harp on that single point anymore. what's done is done. ]

You tell me they still love me, that they never stopped, but none of them have even tried to show it. No one. And I know what people on Earth think of me, too. What was it Adam said? Oh, right. That I'm the most hated being in all of creation.

[ michael doesn't want to be a pawn. lucifer gets it. he'd been desperate to believe he made his own choices for a long time too. ]

Tell yourself whatever you need to, Michael. I said my piece on it, and I'm not going to keep going.

[ but his hands clench in his lap when michael chides him (however gently) for hiding his feelings. michael's right, of course, but lucifer's bitter about that, too. finally, he looks over at him. ]

I don't want to cry. I don't want to think about it and I don't want to remember it but I'm going to because I have to. It'll sit with me as it's meant to. Because now I know what it feels like. What humans go through before they get to me. What sinners went through when I sat idly by and let them be killed again.

"Buddy, I have no idea what you're talking about..." But now he wants to know. Is it bad manners to ask what he means? They have no idea.

Klaus brightens again, the glow around him brightening as well. "Yeah. He's definitely my type. But we won't get into all of that." He means the sexual shit. But that doesn't make sense considering everything else. "It's been nice, though." They laugh. "He got the number four tattooed on his arm. He's pretty obsessed with ghost numbers. Which is what 4 is. Apparently. Which makes sense, right?"

[personal profile] always_hits 2024-08-12 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
"I could explain, I guess. Imagine the worst person she could cheat on me with."

Diego blinks. "The fuck's a ghost number? They die, too?"

[ Immediately, the phrase "tre-moon-dously large" pops into Loop's head. Heh. Maybe they can - ]

[ Mmh. No, they can't quite force themselves to say it. They were just telling Siffrin they need to learn how to move on, and yet the thought of punning at someone aside from... ]

[ Maybe they just, need a few days. That's fine, right? They try very hard not to just shrink behind their cloak again. ]


I wonder if I'd recognize any of them.

[ They're not... sure whether they should remember anything about the stars being burning gas. They feel like they should, maybe? But didn't they... eat one? ]

[ ...they're not gonna worry about it! It'll just give them a headache. ]

[ They pick at the inside lining of their cloak, for lack of something else to do with their hands - ]

[ Um. ]

"Luther?" Considering how often they fought. That seems the most likely. Unless it was someone else.

"Four. In Japan. It's a ghost number. Apparently. And yes. On the ship. Not real life. He's a king from Japan. So I'm royalty now." This is mostly a joke, but also true. "Also he's obsessed with demons, so don't be surprised about that."
always_hits: (Default)

[personal profile] always_hits 2024-08-12 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
"Wrong. Five."

He pauses at the idea of Klaus as royalty. "Wait, so you help decide laws and stuff?"
busball: (86)

[personal profile] busball 2024-08-12 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
"Five?" There is clear and obvious confusion on their face. Isn't he like five? "I missed a lot."

There's a laugh. "No. Cause we're not in a place where we're actually in charge of anything. Especially not here. Or on the ship."

Probably not, I don't recognize any myself. But hey, still pretty to look at, yeah?

[Kaito subscribes to the Just Don't Think About It too hard school of thought. Why do stars and space exist in the heavenly plane?? Is it all fake and just appears as such for aesthetic? That's not his problemTM.

A curious tilt of his head, and he snorts out a laugh at Loop's revelation.]


Uh, yeah? What, did ya think you'd show up here butt naked? This place is weird, but not THAT weird, c'mon.

"He's like physically twenty now and apparently makes bad decisions about it."

He shrugs. "Okay, but if you were?"
