Nexus_Space.ASM



At first it is only dark. The blackness cannot be seen through no matter how used to the dark you are; it's a blackness that defies light in every way.

And then, contrarily, there is light.

Blue, purple, green, the strands of light brighten the way enough to allow the space that you are in to be seen. It's decrepit. Lines of light like strings run through, around and are tied to what seem to be old, half-coded buildings, because it is undoubtedly true that everything present is code.

Everything is slightly off here.

The floor may suddenly no longer be solid, and then you're falling, through blackness and empty space, until you are dropped right back where you were before, an unsettling glitch that truly has no impact in the end. A building, half-finished and unreal, can be walked through as if it isn't there.

And strung up by those lines of light, there are faces.

They may be faces you know, people you have seen before. They may even be the faces of people back home, but they have passed through Cerealia before, and that is why they are here. This is, after all, the Nexus Code--Nexus Space. And you are not alone here; it seems you are all stuck here, and there's no exit to be found. The bodies can't be interacted with; if you try to touch them, your fingers will pass right through them, just as you can't touch the lights.

But the problem isn't with the lights, or the buildings, or the floor, or the bodies. No, the problem is with you, because the longer you're in here, the more your body fades away as your code is corrupted by your surroundings. Bit by bit, you can touch less, feel less, see less, hear less, until it's clear that you're doomed to fade away.

And even worse, the longer you look at those motionless, strung up bodies of friends and family, the more it becomes clear, a niggling sensation that you can't shake: there are faces that should be here that are missing, as well.



//RUN.EXE

Welcome to the wrap-up to Cerealia's July event!

Characters have been dropped into the Nexus Code, and there's no easy way out of here; the bodies they will find will be those of any character that has dropped from Cerealia except for those with high magic abilities or spiritual affinity of some sort. Those characters will be mysteriously absent, even if they were dropped from Cerealia before. Feel free to use your best judgement in that.

Please visit the OOC information here, and should you have any questions, feel free to ask them here! You can also check the FAQ for more general inquiries. Characters will be stuck in the Nexus Code for one full day: 8/01 to 8/03, or IC 2/13 through 2/14. Should this event log hit Captcha, there is an all-purpose overflow here. Thank you!

[ her hearing's been affected since the beginning of the event, so she speaks louder than usual when she responds to ryuko. of course, she looks lost and distraught, but she also has heavy bags under her eyes from not sleeping the past couple of days because... songs about death. always fun, especially when you can hear them while you try to sleep. ]

I DON'T KNOW! I wish I knew... I wish I knew...!

[ it almost seems like she's at her wit's end here. ]

[ So Athena is here, too. No surprise, really, nor is it cause for alarm. The safest place she can be now is near Ryuko, just in case something comes at them. Ryuko would also be more overjoyed, if it weren't for the way Athena looks right now... ]

W-Whoa, Athena, I'm right here! Geez...

You okay?
psycholawgy: (phoenix wright face)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-08-03 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
No!

[ totally screaming that. oops, sorry for your ears, ryuko. ]

I don't know! I'm— I'm so lost... We're going to die. . .
dishonorstudent: @bubs (✂ kamui:  7)

[personal profile] dishonorstudent 2015-08-04 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Ack--!! Why would you say that?! We're not gonna die, Athena! I'm here now, okay?
psycholawgy: (ERROR ERROR FILE NOT FOUND)

...

You're here. . . [ as much as she loves ryuko, she can't put all her faith into this girl. not now. not when she's slowly fading away, and so is everybody else. ]

I'm glad I got to see you again.
dishonorstudent: (✂ kamui: 44)

[personal profile] dishonorstudent 2015-08-05 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Oi, what the hell is wrong with you?!

[ Ryuko firmly grabs Athena by the shoulders. ]

Don't say shit like that, I need you to be the positive one! Your hopes are my hopes, damn it!
psycholawgy: (fucking trucy ate all my waffles)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-08-06 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
[ oh my god that was so gay, ryuko...

she doesn't say anything, though, but instead, starts crying. ]
dishonorstudent: @akise (✂ kamui: so sexy she might pass out)

[personal profile] dishonorstudent 2015-08-06 12:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm serious! You think you can just roll over and give up like that?! You make this shitty world better, so get a hold of yourself and help me out!
psycholawgy: (joins us for a cossack show)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-08-06 12:48 pm (UTC)(link)
What?

[ deliberately not looking at ryuko right now. ]

What can I do?
dishonorstudent: made by <user name="gotnaked"> (✂ kamui: 62)

[personal profile] dishonorstudent 2015-08-06 01:05 pm (UTC)(link)
...

Tell me what we're gonna cook when we're outta here.
psycholawgy: (serious thinking!!!)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-08-06 01:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know what your favourite food is.
dishonorstudent: (✂ kamui: 32)

[personal profile] dishonorstudent 2015-08-06 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Croquettes, lemons and those pancakes you made for me when we met. But we should try something new! How about it?
psycholawgy: (grin)

[personal profile] psycholawgy 2015-08-06 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[ all this talk is definitely helping, and athena gives ryuko a bright smile. ]

Yeah! That sounds good! They're perfect for breakfast.
