Posted April 7, 2022 Quote I'd join a revival party! Evelyn's eyes widened as she listened. Genocide? She felt as though she'd been doused in ice water. They couldn't. Who-? Every portion of her mind rebelled at the idea, and Evelyn backed away several steps. She hardly knew what she was doing, rationality and recognition washed out by a rush of noise. Rob had been the one to bring it up? She couldn't believe it. She couldn't believe any of it. Ene squirmed in her grip, and Evelyn realized she'd been holding her too tightly. She loosened her grip, unwilling to move, unwilling to be left alone through all this, only for Ene to jump free and race around a corner in a gray blur. Evelyn couldn't even watch. She stared at Rob, eyes wide in disbelief, then at James. She'd thought Rob was nice. @AonEne @I think I am here. @Wyndlerunner 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 8, 2022 (edited) Quote I’ll try responding to this. At this point though, would it be better to ‘revive’ this just by making a new thread altogether? New chars, plot etc. (like TKNG… did we ever do something with that?) and set it some years after whatever happened here? Could attract some new players that way. He could feel the end coming. Everything felt wrong, crooked. Cassie, shocked and staring at him. Evelyn, who was looking at him like he was some kind of monster. And of course James. James, who was the Knight in shining armour, the leader of leaders, the Radiant hero against Rob. This wasn't how it was supposed to go. Not at all. There is only one thing to do now, the sphere whispered to him. Make the wish. Wish? Rob's heart felt like a Shardblade in his chest every time it beat. James. Wish. The Nightwatcher. Couldn't she refuse a wish? No, whispered the sphere. She cannot refuse. There are people in this room who have felt her touch. Wishes she could not refuse. Banes she had to give. It was too much. Too much. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben. James. Cassie. Evelyn. The Sphere. Shana. Rob. Ben - and then he just - Rob laughed. The sound seemed unnatural coming out of him. His stoic face contorted into a smile, and he hunched over, squeezing his eyes shut. Nothing was funny, but he laughed anyway, laughed because there was nothing else to do, laughed because everything that had been suppressed for so long was finally being set free. In the silent, tense room, his giggles echoed off the walls, and when he ran out of breath he stumbled against a shelf by the wall and hung onto it for support. He felt like he was coming unraveled, like everything he had been made to be was being inversed. Remade. Unmade. "You... you..." The laughs morphed into sobs seamlessly. Hot tears ran down his face and dropped to the floor, and he made no effort to hold them back. He still remained facing the ground, eyes clamped shut and face turning red from exertion. His stomach hurt from the crying. While his left hand supported him against the shelf, his right still clutched the sphere. Cracks now covered the glassy surface, and his knuckles were white as he gripped it. He thrust his head up to look at James, Cassie and Evelyn, pushing himself further into the corner of the room away from them. Anger, sadness and glee flashed across his face interchangeably, and he felt swept up in a ocean of delirium. This was it. This was it. "If you won't fix me," he growled at James, eyes wild and manic, voice breaking. "I'll do it myself!" He stepped forward shakily, and whether it was the emotions or the sphere or something else, but he swore he could see the Nightwatcher herself hovering above James in a pool of emerald mist, frowning at him. He stared at her and held his sphere to the side resolutely. "Nightwatcher," he said. "I DEMAND this wish. Give me the power to kill those who prolong this war. Give me the power to be MORE, more than this weak mind. That is my wish, and I accept any Bane." The dark sphere in his right hand shattered in his grip, bloodying his palm and sending shards of glass falling to the floor as something dark escaped. It took the shape of dark, too dark smoke as it coiled around his arm before forcing itself into the wounds the glass had made. It was excruciating, and all Rob could hear as it raided his soul and slaughtered Cup was an incessant giggling. Welcome to the end, it whispered to him. You made the wish. Welcome to the end. @AonEne@Wyndlerunner@WrathofaShardKitten Quote Crazy long post. Soz.

Posted April 12, 2022 As Rob snapped, an unearthly chill filled the room. No windows were open, nor was the drop in temperature accompanied by the tell-tale hum of the AC unit. Then, a demand was made; not a request for a boon, but a demand. In the past, James had always served as an intermediary for the Nightwatcher's powers, after all, she was a part of him in the same way the others' spren were. But this time was different. There was no consent, and the pervasive chill seemed to violate his very soul. Whatever entity existed in that black sphere had James completely stripped bare- it had a viewing of his whole pysche as a boon was torn from the Nightwatcher. While, she was unable to refuse a boon, this one felt... different, it was intensely painful and invasive. Thanks to the Connection between him and the Nightwatcher, James could feel every agonizing moment. He Screamed in pain as with one final tear, the violator tore the power free. After such an agonizing moment, the sudden lack of feeling sent James falling to his knees, eyes wide with shock, while in the back of his mind, the Nightwatcher whimpered. I'm sorry James, I'm sorry, I'm sorry I'm sorry. As dizziness began to overtake him, James forced himself to look up at Rob, "You should be careful what you wish for." he growled, meeting the other boy's eyes. Having expended the last of his energy, James slumped to the floor as consciousness left him. @I think I am here., @AonEne, @WrathofaShardKitten 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 14, 2022 Quote So, sorry if I'm interupting or anything, but what's going on at the moment? I wanna get in on that sweet sweet TKND action, but I'm out of the loop (Again lol) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 14, 2022 (edited) Quote Not interrupting anything Basically we’re all in James’ room because Rob just proposed a genocide of Voidbringers (and also a few Radiants who he thinks are continuing the war). It’s all part of his angsty corruption arc Anyway, he just sealed the deal and made a wish with the Nightwatcher. I have a post planned out for Rob where he’s going to become some sort of void monster, but I don’t want to post before everyone’s gotten a chance to react. After that, I’m not really sure what the plan is. I think we might reconnect the perpendicularities? Are you on the Discord? We discuss more there. (The link is on the first post of this thread) So, hop on into James’ room! We have cookies, drama, the Void, and plenty of trauma to go around Edited April 14, 2022 by I think I am here. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 14, 2022 Quote *blinks* oh hey this thing. I cannot remember where my character was when I slowly faded off the shard... I think I was talking to someone but it's very possible that moment has long since passed. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 15, 2022 Quote Hello! This was your last post, Ashlyn was talking to Lissa. Since Stick is also thinking of joining, it’s possible that while talking, you both heard the sound together and went up to James’ room to investigate?

Posted April 16, 2022 Evelyn wanted to scream. To run from the blackness, from the smoke that billowed out dark and thick from the sinking temperatures and Rob's unhinged laugh, from the wrongness that filled the room. But someone was already screaming, and anguished near-shout. Rob was laughing. James sank to the floor. Evelyn set her feet, and she raised her hands. She couldn't fight him, couldn't trace those chains through the air while Rob was still standing there, hand dripping, needing help. She couldn't run. She couldn't fall. So she stood, as fear sought to tear her down. She stood, hands frozen in the air, and hoped desperately that it would be enough. @I think I am here.@Wyndlerunner@AonEne 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
