Seventh Spool of Thread-[Voice/Action]

[Shiki's sitting on a box outside of All Passions, watching the town very very closely]

You're all dressed terribly, every single one of you! You've got to let me help you, no charge at all. Trust me, it's for the best.

[and thus...Shiki will wait for somebody to walk by before she'll drag them inside against their own will. Are you going to dare approach her?]

[[ooc: So...I kind of took two of Shiki's key traits, her desire to help everybody and her fashion-driven sense so that she's got the overwhelming desire to use the people of Luceti as mannequins to "help" them look better. Beware if you talk to her, you will become a mannequin.]]

...Isn't it bad to want that?

[so_shik]

Is it supposed to be bad?

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

While it'd be great to have him back, he'd be coming back here as a lab rat. He doesn't deserve it.

[so_shik]

True...but there's no sense in giving up the idea yet.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

There's nothing left of him to bring back. He died with the ship.

[so_shik]

...it's hard isn't it?

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

I've been trying to pretend it isn't, but it's a lie.

[so_shik]

I'd say I understand...but my death experiences are a little different.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

How so?

[so_shik]

Um...I've been dead.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

Y-you have?!

[so_shik]

Yeah, but it's not really something I tell people here.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

I won't tell anyone. That can't be an easy subject.

[so_shik]

Thanks. It's...pretty strange, but I've got friends here from home that are in the same situation.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

They came after their own deaths?

[so_shik]

Oh no, I met them when I was dead. We were all alive again before we got here.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

...May I ask about the details of being dead and coming back to life?

[so_shik]

We had to play a game against death and defeat the Composer of the Reaper's Game before we could be alive again.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

This Composer had control over death and the ability to revive people?

[so_shik]

Not necessarily the death aspect, but he controlled the Reaper's Game and used it as bait. If we played and survived, we had the chance to be revived.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

Was it something that only happened in your world, or did the Reaper's Game take place in multiple areas?

[so_shik]

Just our world as far as I know, only in our city too. Joshua even had a false Shibuya and everything.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

That's a lot of work to toy around with people who are already dead.

Still, it's good that you were able to come back to life. You've still got so much life ahead of you.

[so_shik]

It's really all thanks to Neku.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

Neku? A friend of yours?
