Return to Tokyo-D

[opening_act]

[ You step through the portal into a place where black coats your vision— a solid, glossy coating of darkness that blocks out all light. For a moment, it is as though you've been been blindfolded, and all light is lost from your reach.

The light does not return.

But colors, in impossible neon hues hew through the dark and spangle newly across your vision. The city is drenched in kaleidoscopic light, the skyscrapers spiral to the heavens. At street level, it is Tokyo. Above that, stars move out of their orbits in dizzying motions. Other forms crowd the street with you— shiloettes of people drained of all their colors like it's bled into the city instead move about, not quite tangible but still giving off body heat. Monochrome figures also move through the crowd, a few demons, and

One demon that maybe some of you will recognize? Or not?

There's a girl with big puffy pigtails in full color with a bag full of groceries slung across her shoulder, heading somewhere. ]

Of course! It would be negligent to just let young ladies to venture out into the unknown without some support.

It's nice to meet you, Camellia-chan.

[letgrow]

It's nice to meet you as well, though I wish the circumstances were different.

Please be careful here, this side is not as dangerous as the other side, but we are still in Hell. And this side pays more attention to our show, so you may be recognized.

[cw_suicide]

Oh, I'm used to that part.

My face has apparently been fairly popular!

[letgrow]

I can help with that though.

[Looking around them for reference before illusioning him to fit in better with liar hell, giving him a different appearance to make him unrecognizable]

[cw_suicide]

--LiliS's ability, right?

... unfortunately, the only ability I have for now is the healing one. So apologies if there's something painful...

[letgrow]

That's right. You should fit in just fine now.

...Nn, I can handle a little a pain. I have my full ability set and I've been here before. So please rely on me too.

[cw_suicide]

[what is relying on others]

Of course.

[letgrow]

There are two main areas we've seen of Hell. This side pays more attention to the show. If you talk to anyone here, do not tell them you are on the show.

[cw_suicide]

I imagine "rabid fans" is more literal here.

[letgrow]

Mm, you got it in one.

[cw_suicide]

At least we have something of a guide...?

[he sure is gonna follow the demon into a deserted alleyway]

[letgrow]

She's a host.

[cw_suicide]

... of the games?

[letgrow]

Mm, that's right. I don't think you're the type, but please don't try to harm her?

[cw_suicide]

[thinks about his one (1) memory and how inaccurate this assessment is]

Me? I would never. I am a complete gentleman.

[letgrow]

'Never' comes sooner than one would think when trapped in a place like this.

[cw_suicide]

I'm very much not a fighting type.

[letgrow]

-Ah! Support class!

[cw_suicide]

[executive tactician, actually...]

Bingo!

[letgrow]

Why don't you correct me when I'm wrong?

[cw_suicide]

--what do you mean?

[letgrow]

You definitely know what I mean.

[cw_suicide]

[this is because of his baby facetwin isn't it]

... from a certain point of view, you are not incorrect?

I just remember being of a certain type but don't remember enough to actually be that?

[letgrow]

[Nods at that explanation]

Mm, all right then.

[cw_suicide]

[eyeing her like he's totally expecting something more because people don't just accept things that easily, do they?]

... more tactical than support.
