THE END IS NEAR.

♫

You wake on Sunday.

Thunder is roaring in the background now with frequent lightning strikes. The rain pours heavily down onto the resort, which is starting to look worse for wear. And yet, the spirits come in irregular bursts.

Sunday, as promised, is also Hild's execution. While you normally don't get to view those, the movie theater seems to be on again at exactly 9:00AM,, a few hours later, just like yesterday. And sure enough, you get a good view of everything: Hild, the Manager, and the rest behind them. And they are all at a site that executions normally aren't at, for those who've seen them.

They're near a well -- the one that Lucas and Zena have talked about before.

The spirits that were plaguing you earlier were around in larger quantities earlier this morning, nuisances to be shoved aside in your pursuit of figuring things out with the shard. Wherever it is, it seems to continue its pulsing, almost like a siren's call to the desperate ones that seem to be vying after it.

But now, they're starting to appear less and less. A sign that something's going to happen soon. For a few moments, you get to spectate what's going on in the living.

[circuitice]

[ honestly, he's ready to stab something so ]

[mayoiga]

[ Probably for the best, because when they look inside, they will see something pretty horrifying.

The shrieking is in a lower register, lower than SWEETHEART's, thankfully -- and it's coming from some sort of entity that's wearing the face of a stranger. But for anyone who's visited SWEETHEART's room, they'll recognize this face as CAPT. SPACEBOY. The creature is wearing his face like a mask and the rest of it is a pitch black body; something that's pretty ghost-like in nature, though it has hands that are placed on its head. The face itself has a crack going down the middle.

(CAPT. SPACEBOY'S portrait, which was once hanging there, is now gone.)

The face flickers back and forth between his -- and then Kaeya's, Diluc's, Kuroi's, like it can't decide what it wants to be. It's howling in...frustration, perhaps?

But you do see a flicker of a weirder face at the end of it before it finally settles on being Kaeya. It seems like it's wrapped up in its own troubles, but it is notably pretty large. ]

[attritional]

[ Iria doesn't think it's fair that this one doesn't come with fishnet leggings with heels like she was subjected to in the special floor, but it wears Kaeya's face.

...

She throws salt at the eyes. Die. ]

[hypnosismaik]

[ ahaha ]

[attritional]

Do something useful, Jim.

[ There's your answer for the ouija board initials. ]

"Emotional support" doesn't count this time.

[hypnosismaik]

What? That's not my name!

And do you really think throwing salt at things is useful?

[ like, it's funny because he hates kaeya, but ]

[attritional]

It is now! Do something more useful then!!

[hypnosismaik]

Like what?! We don't even know what this thing is!

[circuitice]

Oh, I really don't like this.

I'm going to kill it. Again. Any objections?

[attritional]

None here.

[circuitice]

Good.

[ though he pauses, thinking a little on the fact that he saw Diluc's face. that is.......






extremely concerning. ]

[catarou]

Please, be my guest.

[circuitice]

Thank you.

[ time to pull out a knife he got from the kitchen. a fancy champagne saber. ]

[catarou]

[ ........

What the fuck.

While Gentaro is attempting to process this, his geese start honking aggressively and flapping their wings threateningly at the thing. ]

[hypnosismaik]

This is why it's easier to just have people keep their faces covered...

CW BODY HORROR??? JUST IN CASE???

[mayoiga]

[ Iria throws salt at its eyes, and it hisses and pulls back a little, but. This thing is pretty huge, and it's just noticed you. It doesn't seem entirely phased by the salt throw at all, if at all. (Also, Kaeya has an eyepatch.)

So it looks over at the group that looks ready to fight it, and boy oh boy does it change.

It starts to grow larger, giving itself an entire body and four legs grow out of it. It takes on a monstrous form, one that's so big that it nearly breaks the ceiling, and it lets out a loud yell -- one that sounds like Kaeya's voice -- before it moves towards Iria first.

As it does, however, its face turns into one of her siblings. Aria. ]

[attritional]

[ Despite how she shouldn't be seeing Aria, Iria stands there, frozen in place. The hallucinations should have gotten her used to this, but no. It's a monster. It's not Aria. It's not--

She screams. Sorry for y'alls ears. ]

[catarou]

[ Nope, not happening.

Gentaro grabs Iria and pulls her back behind him, and he has-- he sure has a knife! He's prepared to stab this thing so come at him. ]

[circuitice]

[ it's okay, he's not deterred. he is going straight for the throat. ]

Dodge this!

[mayoiga]

[ The knife does land a hit on this thing, and it lets out a growl, in Aria's voice no less -- but its face quickly shifts.

It turns into Mashiro for a brief moment, then another boy with red hair, Riku, before it finally finishes its little roulette and settles on a face Gentaro will recognize.

Dice's. ]

follow-up

[mayoiga]

[ Kaeya manages a hit on the throat, so no, it does not dodge it -- though it'd also be hard to, given its size. It lets out another yell and shifts its face to Klee's before it starts to...

...charge out of the room, breaking pretty much everything in its path. ]

[circuitice]

Well.

Luckily it's not believable as Klee at all. No where near as cute.

[catarou]

[ That--

Gentaro freezes, but it's only for a moment--

It's enough, though, and Gentaro watches it go before turning to Iria. He's shaken, certainly, but he needs to check on her. ]

Iria. Do you need time?

[hypnosismaik]

[ ow ]

[mayoiga]

[ "Ow" is right. Because when it starts to charge out of the room, The Master may get a good look at its face which strangely resembles MAIK's.

(Please don't worship this thing, too.)

But it sure is running in and out of the other rooms, digging through what it can in search of something?

And one more thing -- where is the shard? ]
