GRAVEYARD

THE GRAVEYARD

No two deaths are ever quite the same. Some might remember the exact moment their lives were cut short; others might only see a blinding flash of light; the particularly unlucky ones might not recall any details whatsoever.

No matter how it ended up happening, though, all of you here will always have one thing in common: one second you're dead; the next, you wake up to find yourself in a dark room. Before you can even start to try and get your bearings, a shadowy figure appears in the doorway of your room, face lit from the bottom up by a faint, almost ethereal glow. It stands still for a few seconds before murmuring,

"Oooooh... I see dead people."

... The voice is followed by a snicker as a gloved hand flicks the light switch on, revealing the mysterious entity to be Pumpkin, the fox-eared groundskeeper. Lowering the game console that had illuminated her face, she continues, "That one never gets old. Anyway, hey, sup, you're dead, that sucks, the house is probably gonna eat you as soon as this round is over. Wanna see what everyone else is up to on the other side?"

As you take in everything the gardener has told you, you suddenly realize as you look around... though you don't see anything, why does it feel like this place is already crowded?

We were told it was something overlooked.

Something that may have been there at the start or close to the start.

[slobjection]

I know that the room of req- was one access point.

.... Something close to the start, you say? Did Blue say that?

[shortfornow]

No, we haven't had any contact from blue. Just the trio of past ghosts so far.

[slobjection]

Have you tried contacting Master Blue...?

[ hmm ]

So they mentioned it was something at the beginning, or near it?

[shortfornow]

We don't have the bells here. Or his room.

I don't think we tried writing to him. Considering we're limited on letters, I was thinking of trying to talk to him when we're on that side again.

They just said it's something overlooked. We theorized that it may be something around the beginning.

[slobjection]

Not necessarily. We've overlooked a lot.

[ that's interesting, though. ]

... Talk to them when you're on the other side. We can pool our resources.

[shortfornow]

That's true.

[ trials come to mind ]

That means no more holding back on what you know as well.

[ Being sketchy dodgy hobo ]

[slobjection]

What makes you think I was holding back...?

[ ironically as soon as he started being more plain and direct he immediatley got killed by the house ]

[shortfornow]

[ Sometimes your luck is like that ]

Aren't you always holding something back? Let me guess, you're the one who took over for Mammon?

[slobjection]

Hmm.....? What's this about Mammon?

[shortfornow]

Akechi wrote to him to let him know that someone else has his role now.

[ The himbo demon had a role ]

[slobjection]

It's not nice to read other people's mail, you know.

[ but it came out in trial that he had a special job so u know ]

[shortfornow]

Can't find out who it's for unless you read it.

[ he has no regrets ]

[slobjection]

Is that right?

[ he knows it's not u little shit. ]

[shortfornow]

[ ;) ]

It's pointless to keep it all a secret. The monsters don't even care about that.
