round six: ish vs. raja

tw: moderately graphic/possibly gross descriptions

Have you ever watched a human being get eaten? Have you ever seen a person, a real person who grew up under the same fake powder-blue sky as you and played in the same fake grass, get torn limb from limb and gnawed on like cheap meat? Have you ever watched them slowly disappear, piece by piece, until every single one of their cells is set for digestion in some monster's belly?

Ish hasn't, and it's the only thing she can think about as the MUAs fuss over her, touching up her hair and makeup before she returns to her pod. The last time she was in here, they scolded her for giggling and whirling around in the spinny chair, almost snapping one of the segyein stylists' tentacles. Now they scold her for her wobbly mouth and teary eyes.

Ish has never seen a person get eaten, and that's the problem, isn't it? They dragged her off the stage kicking and screaming, and Raja died alone. She was the last person he saw in the whole universe, and she left him there. The aliens wanted to kill him and she let them win.

Her thoughts drift to the little pink crane left back at her dorm, Mercury's handiwork, with a sweet "good luck!" written inside. Why would they spend so much of their precious time on a failure like her? Now they're dead, and they'll never get that time back.

And then Nadohan—Ish wanted to see them again so, so badly, but now she wishes she didn't. Not when it ended like this. When she closes her eyes, she still sees it: bright pink hair lost amidst the red, red blood. Her stomach churns. She's always been squeamish about blood.

A soft hiccup breaks from her throat, and a slimy segyein feeler yanks her braid, a warning not to cry again, harsh enough to send a bolt of pain through her skull. The gnawing guilt in her gut makes way for a familiar fire.

She lifts her head. The MUA in front of her is an ugly thing, with seven eyes in a lopsided band around their head. Ish aims for the one in the middle and spits, laughing brightly at the shrieks and hisses and roars of horror that rip through the room.

Ish has never liked the word hate, but she hates hates hates hates hates the segyein. They can beat her up more if they like. Kill her. But she's never letting them win again.

Aaand more TVE doodles. The first one is the cover for Act 4, the bottom doodle is basically what Act 6 will be in a nutshell lol (The kid will look like child Viktor btw, just with white glowing hair and light colored clothes)

I'm preparing to post the final chapter for Act 4, it's....quite the emotional gut-punch, relating to what that cover represents.

ish intimacy levels because i did not in fact go to sleep at the time i was supposed to yesterday night!!

note: all of these are most likely going to be super high because of the way ish perceives people in general so uh. the extreme lore consideration i put into tiny number differences/tiny wording choices is between me and god!! sorry if i didn’t add your sona, i was so eepy these were just the ones i could remember off the top of my head at 1am + that i had the energy to finish before i conked out...might come back and do more sometime!! for now, though, feel free to just lmk if you're curious as to ish's intimacy score for your sona and i'll think it over :D

DAIAN ( @apple8ees ) - 96%

Talking to you is like taking a nap under a big, shady tree, when it's around the middle of the day and the sun is all cheerful and glowing. I don't know if I can say I'm your biggest fan, but that's only because there are so so so many people that love you, and I’m not sure if I’m important enough to you to compete. But please do wonderfully on the stage, hehe :)

STAR ( @starry-skiez ) - 93%

Honestly, I think you’re so insanely cool…I don’t know if you consider me very close, but I like you a lot and I’m so so happy to have met you!!! Good luck out there!

KAY ( @imperfectnothing ) - 93%

When I think about it, I don’t really know all that much about you, but talking to you makes me happy! You’re really cool. Sometimes you seem a little sad, but maybe I’m overthinking it.

AOKI ( @lookatmysillies ) - 93%

You’re really cool and I like you!! I don’t think I know that much about you either...but I wish I did. And...I really hope everything goes well for you!

PLIP ( @awaggaa ) - 92%

I really like your vibes, although I'm not sure you like me very much? Question mark? I don't know what's going on with you and Nad but it's kind of funny!! Good luck up on the stage!

ZEN ( @verdantlights ) - 94%

Hehe, I like your style!! Seriously, I admire you a lot, more than you know, and not just for your voice, although you're very talented! Good luck out there and with everything!

NADOHAN ( @alien-til-i-stage ) - 98%

Whether you like it or not, you're my family now!! Hehe. I wanna thank you for trying so hard to keep me safe…I hope you know that just your presence was always enough to make me feel a little better. And I hope I haven't made things too hard for you—you know I wish we could be somewhere else, but that's okay! You're someone I can't lose, so please blow us all away, okay?

MESNE ( ISH's guardian ) - 1%

So long, sucker!! One way or another, I'm never seeing your slimy face again. I hope your company goes bankrupt. Kisses!
