[ we were actually supposed to lose opposite but i can't read, ]
Mmn, not quite. I had regressed backwards, and I'm sure it's the same with the others. I was, for all intents and purposes, the person I was when I was eleven or twelve years old.
It was absolutely an illusion. The other person in the ring was someone I knew from home.
[ there's a second where his gaze flicks to the lantern still sitting by the bedside. but, yeah. he nods along to yuri's answer. ] It was a fight to the death, and we had to win.
[ s
sorry sasazuka. ] After that, we were returned to our normal selves, and met up in a strange room. There were these odd... [ he makes a gesture with his good hand, trying to describe... ] Round... things, on a string, floating in the air. They were full of some sort of gas. The longer we stayed in the room - which was locked - the hungrier, and hungrier we became.
Eventually, a plate of food appeared, and once one of us touched it - instantly - we were attacked by dogs. [ gu yun frowns, at that, looking down at his right arm. it's all healed up, now, but there are fresh scars indicating teeth marks and scratches, visible under his torn robe. ] They were completely undefeatable - we couldn't throw them off or move them aside, no matter what we did. I've dealt with worse, and even I couldn't get free of them.
The point seemed to be that we had to get those strange floating things, and pop them to inhale the gas inside.
[ he could say something about that, but decides not to when he sees gu yun's eyes flicker upwards for the moment. also rip sasazuka's fake self. ]
... Okay, so that was the end goal but... why? What did they do?
[ he can. see what the dogs did, thanks scars, but if the goal was to pop the balloons then what did the balloons do... ? ] You inhaled the gas and it made you dog-proof, or made you less of an aggressive target for them...?
[ yeah. he's pulling a bit of a face as he explains this next part. ] You're going to think that I'm insane - but, once we did so, we appeared in a plain, white space. Across from us was a large... I don't know what it was. Some sort of goat monster. It granted us powers - though said it would require us to face the things that we'd done in our lives along with them.

Mysterious teleportation to a dangerous place. Again.
[ he hates patterns? he hates patterns. like the murders that keep happening, now this keeps happening too. ]
What sort of place? What happened?
no subject
[ yeah its the worst!! anyway why do you assume he's left handed, blease, ]
Well. The first location was some sort of warehouse - when we were brought there, we were all turned into children.

One of the children was Sasazuka? [ he sounds a little confused about this also it's fine ]
no subject
... I don't think Sasazuka went anywhere today. Could be illusions or something...
[ wtf though. babyfights? babyfights?? ]
So you were all separate until-- presumably until you won your fights? Or was there some other condition?
