[action/video] First Remembrance

[notsogrimreaper]

[Action]

[Those who live in room 4-12 (if there are any) or people simply passing by will be surprised to find a new arrival here, dressed in that bodysuit, and purple collar latched snugly around his neck. Not that Ryoji seems to notice, he's still peacefully dreaming away...

For now.

As soon as he wakes up, all hell will break loose, once Ryoji realizes he's alive, his world has been ended, and he's stuck here, unable to escape and keep the residents safe.

...Wake him?]

[Video]

[A few hours later, Ryoji makes a post to the network. The video feed reveals his face, still pale from all the distress, that collar, and his shoulders, which are stiffened. He works his lip for a long while before speaking, not really knowing what to say.]

I... ended everything. The Fall happened, and I was right, no one could stop it. N-Not even Minato-kun.

[He sighs shakily, lowers his head. There's a few moments of silence, but observant listeners will hear sobbing and a whispered mantra: "I'm so sorry, so sorry..."

Then he looks up, smiling weakly, all signs of sadness desperately hidden.]

So... would anyone like to h-help me out? I'm lost...

[Ryoji why you know the places he likes getting scratched? ;u; Though he nudges again before walking around him in a circle. Want the canine tour? c:

And yeah, pretty much. Always need to show off for big bro even if big bro has his hand plastered to his forehead for all eternity.]

[notsogrimreaper]

Oh! You want to show me around? That's nice of you... I really have no idea what this is all about.

Shame you can't talk though, I have a lot of questions still.

[Poor Shinji. Surrounded by idiots. Meanwhile in the afterlife Ryoji's all "HEY DID YOU SEE WHAT AKIHIKO-SEMPAI DID SO COOL DID YOU SEE DID YOU?"]

...and here comes the magic of the hovertext

[determinedhowl]

Arf arf!

[...Okay, he has been around Junpei and Mitsuru-san for way too long. Maybe he'll point out the request box sometime... Ryoji could always ask for a human-to-dog translator thing?

Oh, to be a dead fly on the wall for that one...]

A real live magician! *A*

[notsogrimreaper]

Alright, then, lead the way!

[Ryoji stands, looking around a bit, still a little nervous. It's a weird place, with weird clothes, not to mention the whole 'somehow being alive again' thing.

But a translator would be nice! He'd love to talk to Koro-chan~

Seriously, life behind the Seal is a sitcom.]

[determinedhowl]

[And leads the way, he does! Ryoji is going to get the full tour, and Koromaru pauses to growl at each and every step that stepping on generally leads to falling through and onto one of the bad floors.

It's okay Ryoji one day you will find better clothes or someone can make them. And yse he would like it if other people could understand him. :C

...is there popcorn oh wait I can' have that 8( ]

[Following Koromaru's lead, Ryoji's sure to dodge the steps that the dog growls at, unsure why, but deciding it's best not to question it.

Yes please he would like some pants again. At least Ryoji's caught on to most of Koromaru's unique body language?

Sorry, Koro-chan, he'd pick you up some biscuits if he wasn't dead. "MINATO-KUN LET ME OUT I NEED TO GO TO THE SUPERMARKET"]

[determinedhowl]

[To point out why certain steps should be avoided, he pawed at one of them, the seemingly solid stair giving way and disappearing before he lifted his paw again. At least this place offered a good solid workout?

Koromaru is counting his blessings! The fact someone has picked up on his body language is something he is glad about, too! C:

s-sob, it's okay Ryoji; he understands. ;~; "I CAN'T MOVE OR EREBUS CAN GET INSIDE TOO, I'M SORRY."]

[notsogrimreaper]

[Ryoji's eyes widen and he swallows his fear down.]

Oh, that's why they're dangerous... Thank you for showing me, Koro-chan.

["IT'S COOL DON'T REALLY HAVE MONEY ANYWAYS. CUZ I'M DEAD YOU KNOW."]
