"There is only one Underworld that I know of. And while a few of the living wonder in every so often. You are at a state of in-between it seems." She said looking into him and stead of at him this time. Hael had never seen a soul in such a state of disarray as what he was. Anxiety, fear, and guilt colored him in drab shades of murky grey. "I don't know how so or if your memories will return to you. If you are well and truly dead then you've been here a long time to be losing your memories."

"I will accompany you on your journey to your sister. as you are now you can't leave here on your own."

“The Underworld,” Hael replied giving them a quick once over. The number of people you could find wandering around down here who weren’t exactly dead was on the higher side. The souls were persuasive almost siren-like in their calling. “Don’t worry too much on the hotter days fumes from the Lethe can scramble a person’s memories until they get used to it. But if they are really so important to you I can ask around.”

“The Underworld? As in like the afterlife?” It’s not that he’s dimwitted, but rather a little confused and disoriented. “As in I’m dead?” He wants to make sure he’s not assuming anything, that he understands exactly what is going on. 

“Memories?” He frowns in thought. Is that why he doesn’t remember the last day or two? “I need to get back to my sister…” Isabelle is his main priority. She needs him. She’s only… sixteen? Gods, is that even right?

What's the dumbest thing the cast has done (for both casts)?

These asks are getting juicy omg

Trouvaille

Jackie: Let their college roommate taser them in the ass while drunk. Then let them taser their nipples while sober. (Just two of many many many dumb things that are too plentiful to list)

TV: Told the Dominos guy "I love you" on the phone after ordering pizza. Has not gone back since.

Theo: Went to a fancy party and saw a stack of mints on a plate on the way out. They tried one only to find that the mint was, in fact, a tiny soap.

Jace: After a 36 hour workday, went to a drive thru so he could stuff his face with something before he passed out. But he was so out of it that when the dude taking his order asked what he wanted to drink, he said, "Barbecue." He corrected himself but then sat there for like a minute trying to remember the word "Pepsi."

Dakota: Tried to prove he could fit a whole egg in his mouth. Getting it in was the easy part.

Antigone: Got 20 minutes of sleep one night. Dumped her cereal into her plant and nearly drank Miracle-Gro.

Hell or High Water

Castor: Burnt the crap out of his hand making microwave mac and cheese. He didn't know he wasn't supposed to saran wrap it and when he took the plastic off - FWOOM. (This is his #2 dumbest thing actually)

Sabine: A guy blatantly insulted her (sort of on accident) but it was hilarious so she ended up obsessed with him for the next 4 years.

Jess: Snuck into a hangar on base and tried to take a prototype helicopter for a joyride. She'd have been arrested and court martialed if her dad didn't know her so well.

Mina: Is super allergic to peanut butter but needed to taste that creamy goodness one more time so she ate a spoonful from the jar then immediately epi penned herself.

Matthias: Accompanied his father for a business dinner. Introduced himself to his father's investor and his lovely daughter. Except that was his wife.

The Rival: A friend told them they were pregnant and they said, "Yikes, what are you gonna do?" Then realized that that friend was married and was actually trying to start a family.

The Shadow: Has been saying "human bean" instead of "human being" their whole life since mishearing it once when they were a kid. The logic of it has not occurred to them.

i am the pigeon anon and i have returned. 👀🫡 interesting new IF you're having there.... would be a shame if someone immediately asking for booty size of the ROs.. shame indeed 👀👀👀👀👀👀

I see that you’re like a homing pigeon, always returning. I’m here for it.

Note that below is a perkiness meter, not just size!

Flat Like Kansas Mina < The Shadow < The Rival < Matthias < Castor < Sabine < Jess Bubba Bubba Bubble Butt

What kind of huggers are the main characters? For both games please!

Crack-your-spine level squeezers

Jackie, Dakota, Jess

Soft, tender hugs

TV, Antigone

Throws their arms around your neck

Matthias, The Shadow

Tentatively hugs you back, somewhat surprised to be hugged

Theo, The Rival, Sabine

Cradles your head to their chest

Castor, Jace

Pats you on the back with a grabber tool

Mina (gets sick easily)

[lachesis-games]

between your two games, who would get along the least?

Ooohhhhh lord y'all are asking the hard questions lately. Neither of these groups are especially pugnacious so there would have to be some preexisting tension for any substantial arguments to come out.

Jackie would be too up in Mina's space for her tastes. She's social on her own terms and Jackie has some problems toning it down, but it's not as bad as some of these other pairs.

Matthias can sense that something's not right with TV. He wears a social mask every day, he can sense that how TV acts is not who they really are, except they don't seem aware of their underlying personality and it makes Matthias nervous.

Theo and Castor would have problems because Theo is technically a criminal and Castor doesn't play games with the law. Cas would also not get along with Jace because they're both usually in charge so they'd butt heads.

Dakota would think The Rival is a spineless jerk (for reasons that have to do with their identity and motivations in the story). Most of the ”Trouvaille” cast would, save for maybe Theo respecting the hustle but even that would be a stretch.

Antigone and The Shadow would hate hate hate each other. Shadow's behavior drives Annie nuts because she thinks they act like a willing pawn in someone else's game.

A Collection

“You do get used to the screaming after a while. Almost turns into a dull sort of buzz in the background.” Hael said as she put the finishing touches on a list that she was creating on the tablet in her hand. She waved one of the reapers over and handed it off them before turning back to the person next to her. “But you’re not here for all that right? No one ever comes here for the atmosphere after all.”

Green hues watch the other as she works on the tablet, tilting her head curiously was she observes. 

Oddly enough it’s not the screams he finds unsettling, though he’s sure if he stays down here too long and listens closer to them they will be. Rather that he’s completely blanked on the last day or so… And losing time is not something he does regularly. In fact, he can’t name a single other time he’s forgotten where he is or where he’s been. 

“I- I um… I’m sorry… where am I?”
