children, wake up; hold your mistake up

[headandhand]

WHO: All new and remaining Dualizens
WHAT: A mysterious return! And the start of Act II.
WHERE: Begin at the dorms, move on to wherever else in the city you want.
WHEN: Right meow c:
WARNINGS: Please use these in thread headers if applicable!

Maybe it’s a stream of sunlight that invites you back to consciousness. Maybe it’s a sound - a slammed door, your roommate’s snores, panicked shouts in the hallway. Whatever it is that wakes you, you find yourself in a plain bed inside a plain room, groggy and disoriented.

Maybe this room is a familiar sight, or maybe it’s a place where you’ve never found yourself before. Whether you’re new to town or an old hand at navigating the neon-lit streets of the city outside the dorm room window, one thing is for certain - you are one of only a very few people still populating this city, and not much about Dualis is as you last remember it.

Time to wake up and start looking for answers.

Monsters are manageable if you have enough bullets. [Beat] Sure wish I had some now. But you're right--hot running water is definitely a plus, and I'm a big fan of not having to do a hero's journey before someone tells me 'the power was in you the whole time.'

Do you think the future's too cool for guns? Are we doing swords again? I know someone who'd be thrilled at the idea.

I hope the future's not too cool for guns. I like guns, and swords aren't really my deal. I'd have to learn a whole new skillset. I mean, not the worst idea in the world, but my sister would kill me.

I mean, depending on how quickly you pick up new skills, she could just wait for you to kill yourself. Sharp objects aren't very forgiving.

[She's joking! Really!]

That is 100% the reason I'm not allowed to have a sword, tbh.

I mean, where's the trust?
