chroma | WEEK ONE: EXECUTION

EXECUTION: KAZUMA ASOGI

Sunday morning starts peacefully enough, until around noon, when alarms start going off on your phones. The dreadful noise is accompanied by a reminder of the execution taking place in the Central Node. You can snooze the alarms at first, but they begin to get a little more insistent. If you're being stubborn, you can probably hold out until exactly 1 PM, when an archway opens right in front of you and pulls you in.

Unlike last week's pizza party, today the Central Node is eerily quiet and empty. There are a few blankets laid out on the grass for those of you who wish to sit instead of standing the whole time. No refreshments have been provided, but the Residents are already there waiting for you.

As the last person enters the node, an enormous archway suddenly opens. This archway once again leads to an area which is pitch black inside, with white and grey dust falling softly like snow. The chilly air feels even colder than before, and you instinctively know you must not approach it. If you try to push through anyway, something is blocking your way. Smaller tears to the same space open in the air, at the very least. You can see what's happening, even if you can't follow.

Because - once the archway is open, Kazuma alone will begin to walk through as though drawn. All you can do now is watch and wait.

[She's stony-faced as always, but when she sees the girl, there's a raise of her eyebrows....and then she's frowning even more deeply.]

[This...how dare they....]

[annnd then WAXY STATUS STARTS]

[um]

What...does...anyone else feel that?

[JUST?? LOOKING AROUND CONCERNEDLY??]

Wow, it really got shittier.

Oh, I hate this.

[OH SHE REALLY HATES THIS WTF]

Um... I think so?

[worrying]

Is this...is this supposed to be like...we're statues or something?

[BITCH??]

Why...? Is it supposed to be a warning to Kazuma? It's not as if he can even see us right now...

I don't know. Maybe it wanted its...one on one battle instead of this.

[REALLY STRUGGLING TO MOVE AND NOT BEING ABLE TO SO SHE'S JUST. VIBRATING]

Why is it affecting us?

[ isn't this supposed to be KAZUMA'S execution??? ]

I...don't...know.

[EVERYTHING IS BAD]

Fucking hell.

[ love this for us ]

I'm really not keen to lose another limb.

[ will... things? snap off? like susato's head? ]

[ that's unfortunate. if scanlan was here he'd say youd be double disarmed. ]

I just got my fucking leg attached again.

[ the weird thing is, this doesn't seem entirely unfamiliar to vanille, whose hand shoots to her thigh...or at least makes the motion of doing so, before she just stops moving and then looks toward hot pants. ]

The prism is doing this...?

...I think so. He's seeing wax statues, and it feels like...

[They're statues?? haha]

At least...we can still talk?

[ for better or worse... ]

For how long, though...

[Atsushi is going to get stuck with his hands on his heads because he's holding onto his head and screaming internally right now.]

I wish I weren't feeling this!

Calm down.

[Her voice is as hard as a rock.]

We'll get through this. Deep breaths.

R-right, deep breaths.

[He's trying. It sounds more like hyperventilating, but he's trying.]
