TRAUMAPROM

[One moment, you're chatting, eating, or trying to find a way out of this strange garden. The next? The whole world seems to spin around you, colors blazing and swirling, sound muffled—it feels like you're going to faint—

. . .

Seconds later, it's over.

And you're somewhere else entirely. It looks like you're trapped inside a dome of frosted glass; nobody can see in, you can't see out, and should you try to break it, the only thing your efforts will earn you is a bruise.

It's a small space, which you're sharing with one other person—perhaps they're very, very special to you, perhaps they're not. Either way, other than them, all you'll be able to find is a long, sharp knife, and a vial labelled with naught more than a skull and crossbones.]

Hmm . . . I'm afraid that you've been outbid. You have ten minutes, or I'll take matters into my own hands.

[You have ten minutes to decide how to die and to put that plan into action! When that time runs out, water will begin to trickle in the room from the floor, faster and faster and faster—after ten more minutes, the room will be completely flooded. The person chosen to survive will instinctively know that they won't have any trouble breathing.

Once the person slated to die is dead, their body will vanish, and the water will recede. With a sickening lurch, the survivor will find themselves back in the garden, with the corpse of their partner nearby.]

[...Ah.]

[Just going to hold Tempest's hand tightly a moment, thinking.]
restorefromsave: (On a wheel of perpetual motion)

[Oh. Okay apparently thinking is not an option.]

Tempest...
restorefromsave: (And the ones we hail)

[Oh no. Hugs him tightly.]

I'm sorry.
restorefromsave: (With no show of an outward emotion)

[personal profile] restorefromsave 2013-12-31 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
You're the one I'm worried about most right now.
restorefromsave: (All the sinners crawl)

Tempest.

[He holds Tempest's head in his hands.]

I love you, I love you so much. And I'm sorry.
restorefromsave: (And the masquerade)

[personal profile] restorefromsave 2013-12-31 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Well he's not going to stop.]
restorefromsave: (I want to shelter you)

[personal profile] restorefromsave 2013-12-31 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Pets his hair, shh, shh.]

I'll stay with you until the time limit.
restorefromsave: (There's nowhere we can hide)

[Ten minutes of cuddling and emotions, have you said all you want before the water starts filling the room?]
restorefromsave: (And a wheel in perpetual motion)

[personal profile] restorefromsave 2013-12-31 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
I love you.

[He repeats it softly as the water starts... Rising.]
