January Event: Fade to Black

JANUARY EVENT: FADE TO BLACK
Who: Anyone and everyone!
What: Your true self comes to roost
When: January 21st - 23rd; January 25th - 28th
Where: All over!
Warnings: Dark subjects such as violence and self-destruction are likely to come to the forefront - please mark your content accordingly!
Down in that Darkness

This log is primarily for the Shadow and Light portions of the event, for ease and convenience. Your Shadow can be either the Persona-inspired sort - a "brutal, bitterly honest recreation of a character's worst flaws, darkest fears, and deepest secrets" - or the edgier, more laughable variant. The Lights, on the other hand, will do their utmost to convince their real selves of their best qualities, no matter how little they want to hear them.

Remember that the Shadows will be present from January 21st to January 23rd, and the Lights will be present from January 25th to January 28th.

On January 25th, we will post a separate log for Rejection Rooms!

Yeah... [There's not so much he can say to that. This place isn't great. It's better than other places but it's still not good. It's still dangerous, bad things happen that are completely out of their control. They are still trapped.

Also and Shion realises this belatedly...]
You can talk?
vagabone: (sigh)

[Trapped. Kept away from the one thing he wants: his family--and right as he'd regained them after nearly a century. Yeah. He may be a no-good bum, but surely he didn't deserve this.]

Oh, yes. I can talk. Lost my voice for a while when I died, like I was being punished. How twisted is that?
savedbyasong: (unsure)

Oh... [He hadn't realised...] Yes they do that. Punishment or some side affect. Probably a punishment... I forgot how to read and write last time..
vagabone: (don't yank my chain)

[A side effect. Yeah, right. He seems far more upset by it now than he was on the days of the muteness.]

Who does that? Who punishes a kid for dying? If they can bring people can, they can bring us back all the way!

Whoever brought us here I guess. [He shrugged, he had no idea why they would punish them. But he doubted they needed a reason past the fact that they could.] Maybe bringing us back is not easy. It takes a few days...
