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


A, Garden Level - Autumn Celebrations!
[It may be November in the real world but when you're dead time is fake! So this week/month GARDENFEST is happening...........aka a bootleg mishmash of Oktoberfest and an Xmas Market. In general: PARTY TIME.

Drinks! Foods! Bad singing!! Drunkenly built gingerbread houses! You're thrown in a festive identity clash of imps and cherubs in the garden playing music that doesn't match or shoving drinks at you. Don't worry, if you don't want a mug of beer, it might just be gingerale! Anyway sorry you died but PARTY PARTY JOIN US JOIN US--]


B, Hell Level: ICE to meet you!
[Down at the HellRaiser hotel, the hellish amenities await your every need, but spooky season is over. Aside from the usual, er, allure of Hell, it also seems to be slowly freezing over. Ruh roh. It's not much now, but occasionally you may be hit by a teeny tiny icicle as you explore, awww. Other times it's a whole fucking STALACTITE crashes down on you. Better dodge or hope someone pushes you out the way!! Look out for slick sidewalks too!

Otherwise, hey have some fun in Hell!! Go to a club, get some drugs, go to a casino, win and get mugged!! Ever have a drink made out of literal MAGMA? Go on, try it!! Slaps hell's cobbled brimstone you can fit so much chaos down here!]


C, Heaven Level: Spice, spice, baby.
[Heaven-side, the cherubs are ready to welcome you and give you the VIP treatment!! Massages! Manipedis! Lavish outfits and attention! You can raise your hand and just get a fucking cat sat on your lap! Truly, this is bliss!!

Oh, but it's also cozy season in Heaven! So along with the best fits for the chillier weather, There are an assortment of beverages being offered by angels for you to sample (CW Mind Manipulation):

Apple Spiced Latte- Tasty and earthy! But you suddenly feel more subservient.
Cranberry Spiced Latte- A bit tart but it works. This might make you sassier than usual.
Stuffing Spiced Latte- There is no effect. Why would you drink this you monster.

For the TDM you can find small cherub-run kiosks with these drinks on any level you prefer! If that's not your cuppa joe, feel free to explore the beauty of Heaven per usual! The beach! Boardwalk! All the cafes!! Whatever heaven should have, you can likely find it.]

Comments

C. /heavy breathing

[admonish]

That’s a wistful smile if I have ever seen one.

[ Michael is on the shorter side, but something about his commanding presence tends to cancel that out. There is a halo gleaming above his head and, since he is in Heaven, all six wings are proudly on display behind him. Unlike some of the others, he has no animal characteristics, he appears entirely human. ]

My brother is also fond of apples, I can smell them from here. Admittedly, I’m more partial to black coffee myself, but I could be swayed.

[ Piercing blue eyes linger on Valjean and almost seem to look through him, though that is hardly the case. He can just be an intense guy sometimes even with the soft smile. ]

Yours is a face I don’t recall having seen before, but I’m sure I haven’t met everyone yet.

[Jean opens his eyes and nods allowing Michael to see his eyes are gleaming with light that mimics a candle flame.]

It was....I was remembering summers climbing apple trees with my sister and eating far too much of the fruit then was good for us.

[Jean is not an open man by nature so he's a bit surprised he is telling a complete stranger heavenly or otherwise any of this.]

I believe I have just arrived but I am uncertain. I am....

[A pause as Jean struggles to figure out what name to use since he's had so damm many]

Jean...my name is Jean.

[admonish]

Even when they are far away, siblings have a way of finding us when we need them the most. At least that’s my experience. Sometimes, even just a memory is the greatest comfort.

[ How surprisingly forthcoming of him, he thinks, then he studies the drink he is holding again. This person could just be a sociable person but, as he just arrived, he feels the need to be candid. ]

Be mindful of anything left out by our hosts. It doesn’t happen every time, but they’ve been known to be mischievous. I wouldn’t want you to be caught unaware.

[ He nods, taking a moment or two to study the people around them. ]

Arriving here can be jarring but, for the most part, the people that call this place home with us are friendly enough. Jean. It’s a pleasure to meet you, my name is Michael. If you have any questions, I’ll answer them as best I can.

[jeanvalijan]

I pray....that if my sister is here we will find each other again.

[There is a longing in Jean's voice as he says this as it is one of his dearest wishes to see her again. But then the comment about the drinks comes and Jean gives his a wary look and sets it aside not realizing the damage is already done.]

Thank you friend for the warning...I....well I feel as though I have not decided where I belong

My life was a complicated one and there are things I still have to do.

[He sighs thinking of Cosette and Fantine]

I don't know if you can ease my troubled heart enough to help me choose.
