[Game 18] The Waking World

After successfully talking Zan into waking up—the world around you starts to dissolve and break apart. There's a lurch, like the sensation of abruptly falling into sleep, but backwards; and all around you, the glass begins to crack apart, splintering and sending ocean water splashing everywhere, gushing forward, a cascade of blue and black, alternating between starfish and actual stars, suspended in liquid sky.

. . . reality seems to bleed in overtop of it and, sluggishly, you find yourselves waking up all over a suburban basement in New Jersey. There is a lamp on near the bed, where someone is still asleep, though fitfully beginning to wake up.

More noticeably, there is a woman sitting up in bed with him, arms wrapped around her bare knees as she watches them with amusement, extremely beautiful and . . . extremely familiar.

"Wow." One hand drops to Zan's hair. "I don't even know where to start with you guys."

[OFFENDED GUARD YUKI]

At a later date let's enact revenge, Yuki.

Yes, LET'S.

Something really cruel.

Brick all his Apples?

Yes.

That sounds nice.

It's a plan~

[and flops his head against Yuki's back]

I wanna drink.

[There is still a heavy weight in your pocket.]

[yeah, he's been aware of that....

but Sariel said to KEEP IT SECRET KEEP IT SAFE

so that's for later

although maybe he clutches it a little when he slips his hands in his pockets, which is something he already does plenty so it doesn't look odd]
