The City of the Specter, Atem's Palace

[metagame]

The corpse sinks to the floor
Even the brightest gold, even the sharpest blade
Becomes sand, becomes dust

( there's a startled scream and a thud from somewhere


... hey guys! mafuyu here! not in a nurse getup though. she's quietly trying to rub her side, where she landed. )

....




Oh no.

[strawsandals]

Mafuyu?!

[ BRUH. ]

...Since you're here...we're in Atem's palace. Why did it drag you here, of all people?

[beathollow]

...

Yoon I am so tired.

[strawsandals]

I know you are. Take it easy and let us know if you're not feeling well, okay?

[ Give this girl a goddamn break. MY GOD, NEKYIA. ]

[beathollow]

I will.

( ... if she thinks it will not inconvenience anyone at the time.

but since she's here, she should try to help, right? so she'll take a general look around (1) and wowie she's so tired omgggggg. )

[metagame]

Plants everywhere! Palms, water lilies, and what's that? Why, it's a duck waddling around! Look at that duck go.

[ledbythewind]

Mafuyu!

[IS SHE OKAY, she's in one piece, right...]

[beathollow]

( she is! she's just embarrassed and confused. please don't ask how she fell into a fucking palace. )

I'm okay.

( ... she might be in her jammies though, if theres no costume change mechanic. )

[ledbythewind]

[Just offering up his cape if she would like to be a little more... not pajama-d.

Why is she here after the other day, though, please give this poor girl a break...]

[beathollow]

--Thank you.

( she will accept it... especially since she isn't sure the people here would approve of her pyjamas. )

[emptyself]

Mafuyu?

[ soujuurou looks up, left, right, and up, and then back down at her. ]

Did you fall from the sky?!

[beathollow]

... Yes... I don't know what happened.

This is Atem's palace, right? ... I was... rude to him before, when under the God of Conflict's influence. I'll have to apologize.

[emptyself]

I'm sure he'll understand if you apologize.

[ he won't mention the fact that he himself never realized that mafuyu was under the influence of the god of conflict, because even soujuurou has a bit of pride. ]

At worst, he might just ask you to play a game with him. He seems to like doing that.

[beathollow]

( soujuurou also didn't catch her absolutely destroying the common room and tearing things up before celeste found her and fixed everything. that was... a bit more obvious. )

... Hopefully my luck from home continues, then.

[emptyself]

I know mine is still continuing from your palace. We got arrested and I lost in his game.

[ oh he's been carrying this under his arm the whole time... ]

Here. It's some sort of clothes that we got from a criminal vendor at the marketplace.

[ it's a tunic! ]

[moodwrecker]

-Mafuyu?!

[Hello, she is dressed in Egyptian linens for a new look apparently.]

[beathollow]

Oh!


You look very cute.

[moodwrecker]

Uh- thanks? We got swindled, I guess.

[But whatever-]

It's Atem's palace. Literally, I guess, because he's a pharaoh. He's also letting his people starve and running around playing games of chance instead of doing anything about that.

[beathollow]

... That doesn't sound like how he usually is.

[privatedomicile]

Mafu?! Where’d you come from?!

[Hi, it’s Jesse, but in a linen skirt and leopard skin. He’s still wearing a tshirt with a skeleton giving the finger for modesty.]

[beathollow]

... I don't know. I just... fell...

[cleansewithfire]

Ms. Mafuyu.

[ Universe let Mafuyu have a break- ]

[beathollow]

Sunrise.

[cleansewithfire]

You should have gotten a chance to rest instead...

[beathollow]

... I wish I was still in bed. I'm not sure what happened myself. But if I'm here, I must support you. ... So, no matter what, I'll be here.
