[Standing in front of the terminal, Waver looked like hell. More accurately, like he got the hell to a terminal within two minutes of sleep paralysis wearing off. His suit jacket forgotten, the usual sunglasses were hanging off a collared shirt as black as his disheveled, untied hair.]

[Let it never be said Waver Velvet was an unkempt mess; there were just much more important things to consider right now than his personal appearance.]

I have a question. Technically several, though all geared toward the same subject.

Has there yet been any evidence of limits to this place's resurrection capabilities? An upper limit on times one can return, for example?

And what of side effects: has there ever been any indication of lingering illness or other such afflictions?

You'll have to excuse me if these are stupid questions. I hadn't had time or reason to consider the implications of this until now.

oh just waking up to hands holding me down
and then passing out again
and then i woke up like i would usually

[fionnuisce]

Did you happen to see anything unusual at the time?

[puppy_lancer]

no i couldn't see anything
must have had my eyes closed

[fionnuisce]

And this was your seventh rime, you said? Have you heard of anyone else having a similar experience at any point?

[puppy_lancer]

well i've never talked to anyone who died as many times
or may i have but the subject never came up

[fionnuisce]

I wonder, then, if it's a random happenstance or if that number itself is significant.

[puppy_lancer]

Saber say it's jason punishing us for knowing too much

[fionnuisce]

Knowing too much? What did she mean by that?

[puppy_lancer]

apparently some people got a good look at how jason brings us back
without his permission
so now he's pissed off again

[fionnuisce]

Right, that recording...I haven't had the opportunity to see it for myself, but I'd imagine he wasn't too pleased about the matter.

[puppy_lancer]

last time we pissed him off he took away all our food
but it was quite his month yet when i died

[fionnuisce]

Speaking of that-

[A pause.]

Damn, I left my notes back in my room. Correct me if I'm wrong since I can't double check: it's his month now, yes? What kind of things should we be expecting?

[puppy_lancer]

something biological
and painful
like diseases or mind swapping
most likely fucks with your head too
also shitty nutrition bars
but you've probably see that

[fionnuisce]

I did notice that last point. I take it that's standard?

[puppy_lancer]

pretty much
he does the bare minimum

[fionnuisce]

Fantastic. Who comes after him in this happy little carousel of misery?

[puppy_lancer]

riki
let's hope he doesn't fuck with our ages this time around

[fionnuisce]

Oh, this just keeps getting better. And that's his standard modus operandi, is it?

[puppy_lancer]

yep
that's why everyone wants to punch him.
