@copper-9spurgatory

❌👁..What’s with you and explosives? I can hear them from miles away…It’s getting annoying having to hear them go off constantly..

🫵❓️

🤷‍♂️

💣💥=🔒

(Who are you? Whatever. I use bombs because they create safety for me and my friends.)

[copper-9spurgatory]

I didn’t think—whatever you are—spoke in hieroglyphics? Do you not have any other methods..

[boombirdy]

Unfortunately, she does not. She is mute, and therefore uses pictures and gestures to communicate. I am Dusekkar, his partner and translator.

[Taph blushed at the mention of them being together, pulling their bandana up higher.]

[copper-9spurgatory]

Ahhh—I see.

She remained unaffected by the character’s relationship status. Although, fully understanding why he spoke in gestures. Her eyes narrowed, doing nothing but just glare at the blocks in front of her.

[boombirdy]

[The antlered jack-o-lantern looked at her strangely.]

"How are you even here? You don't appear to fit the dimensional signature of our world."

"🫵🤪"

(You look weird.)

[Dusekkar choked back laughter.]

[copper-9spurgatory]

The werewolf crouched down. Barely eye-level with the geometrical duo. Although, it didn’t really matter, she could only see them as blotches of color.

I’m not sure. All I heard was thundering noises further down the forest and that’s how I stumbled upon—

Jane then gestured over to the cloaked figure. Almost curling her claws at the snarky comment.

[jane-doe-forsaken]

[Taph had been very weary of the scary lady since she arrived, intimidated by her purple hair and axe... but after Dusekkar had decided to befriend her, Taph had gotten some confidence. She appeared behind Jane, accidentally being extremely sneaky, in an eerily similar way to Two Time. He then realized he had no other way to get her attention, so he tapped her shoulder. She quickly flinched back after doing so.]

- @boombirdy

Jane startled and turned around to see Taph. She hadn't really interacted with her much in the past- she'd heard loads from Dusekarr as they were dating, but not much conversation went on between them aside from the occasional 'thanks for the med-kit.' or, 'could you put a trip mine here?'

"Hi, Taph, do you need anything?"

Her voice was a bit shaky... she'd probably been crying again. The previous round she'd seen her husband, who'd looked worse than ever. She'd spent the entire round after she'd seen her husband curled up in a corner until John had found her and killed her- which wasn't unusual.

[boombirdy]

[He fumbled through her pouch, eventually pulling out a leather sack. It was high quality made, with something heavy inside. She carefully handed it to her.]

"🎁"

(It's.. it's a gi- gift.)

[He looked hopeful that she would open it.]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

Jane took the gift, studying the pouch. She had no suspicions that this was malicious-- while Taph could be a bit chaotic sometimes, she was a good soul, and they were comrades.

"Oh! Uh, t-thank you, Taph. What's in here...?"

[boombirdy]

🫳😁 🐦

(Open it! It's co.. cool. In my opinion.)

[Taph pulled up his bandana for seemingly no reason, but Jane suspected she was blushing.]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"Okay... I'll take your word for it."

Jane smiled slightly and opened the package.

[boombirdy]

[Inside was a necklace. It was golden, with similar rune inscriptions to Taph's robes. In the medallion, there was a chunk of black, glowing rock, with a protection spell around it. Jane quickly realized what the rock was... it was Corruption. How did Taph acquire this??]

"🫴✨️🕑"

(It boosts your magic, but it's temporary and needs time to recharge.)

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"...Oh...! This is..."

Jane puts on the medallion.

"Thank you, Taph. This very... interesting..."

[boombirdy]

"🙏"

(You're welcome!)

[Taph scurried away, leaving Jane alone with her thoughts... and the floating blue pumpkin beside her. Dusekkar floated in front of her, inspecting the medallion]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"Hello, Dusek. You got yourself a good partner- she's kind."

Jane said, slightly awkwardly. She took off the medallion an inspected it.

"Do you know how Taph got this?"

[boombirdy]

"I believe I do; But what about you? The stone mirrors your soul; the one other to make you whole."

[Dusekkar held the medallion]

"Taph acquired the code from a place unknown, but this is certain; you must use caution: Danger comes from wistfulness; be wary of the abyss."

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"...Your poems intrigue me..."

Jane slipped the medallion into her bag, along with the runes she always carried for rounds.

THIS ROUNDS KILLER IS: JOHN DOE

"Dear spawn, no, not again."

[boombirdy]

[Taph was not in the round, but Dusekkar was. He was right next to Jane at the start]

"Be not afraid; this beast will be contained."

[He pointed to the medallion in her bag]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

Even though Jane had seen her husband a billion times in rounds before, she would still have the same reaction every time.

She seemed to ignore Dusekarr, and slowly walked off to go hide somewhere. There she'd stay, until John found her.

This time, the map was Yoricks Resting Place. She walked until she got to the graveyard, and there on the tomb, was written John Doe.

There, she kneeled, saying a small prayer, than sat down, her back resting against the tomb. She buried her face in her knees, and tried to distract herself with her thoughts.

[boombirdy]

[It wasn't long before John found her. He growled, attempting to speak, but failing. He slowly approached her, claws moving in anticipation. He roared, preparing to strike... but when he swung, Jane didn't feel anything. Dusekkar had used his shield, protecting her. John tried to attack again, but Guest suddenly blocked the swipe, before punching him. Guest picked her up, and ran away with speed given by Dusekkar's zap.]

"You gotta stop doing that."

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"What are you- No, guest, don't waste your strength!"

[boombirdy]

[He chuckled]

"Heh, I'm fine. We need to get you back in the fight, though."

[He sat her down, popping his back.]

"Let's go help Dusekkar, kay?"

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"I am not fighting my husband. Leave me."

Jane stood up, and starts walking, drifting back to the graveyard.

[boombirdy]

[He put his hands up in surrender.]

"Whatever, that thing isn't your husband, so I don't get why, but it's your choice."

[He walked away.]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

Jane looks back at guest in Astonishment. She's shaking, there are tears in her eyes. From rage, and from sadness.

She storms away, back to the graveyard- the fight seems to have moved away from it.

Again, drifting toward the grave that says John Doe, and kneeling before it.

"Oh glorious spawn...

Bless my husbands soul, may he be cured of this ailment soon...

May he feel no pain..."

[boombirdy]

[Two Time kneels on a grave near her, the name Azure printed on it. She can't hear their prayer, but she does hear the word "Spawn"]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"Two Time?"

Jane stands up, approaching Two Time quietly and slowly.

[boombirdy]

[They finish, and look up]

"Hello, friend. You wish to speak to me?"

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"...Are you alright? Why not trying to go and help the others...?"

[boombirdy]

"Yes, I am perfectly great. I simply wished to pray to the glorious Spawn, as you were doing."

[Two Time grinned eerily]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"..oh. right."

Jane looks over at the tombstone, and notices is has the name of Two Time's old lover on it.

"Oh."

[boombirdy]

"Do not pay mind to it."

[jane-doe-forsaken]

“…Azure must have.. meant a lot to you… like… J…John to me…”

“If you're o-okay with sharing… what was he like…?”

[boombirdy]

[Two Time's smile wavers uncharacteristically, before returning. They turn to face the grave.]

"They were the kindest person I've ever met."

[boombirdy]

[He put his hands up in surrender.]

"Whatever, that thing isn't your husband, so I don't get why, but it's your choice."

[He walked away.]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

Jane looks back at guest in Astonishment. She's shaking, there are tears in her eyes. From rage, and from sadness.

She storms away, back to the graveyard- the fight seems to have moved away from it.

Again, drifting toward the grave that says John Doe, and kneeling before it.

"Oh glorious spawn...

Bless my husbands soul, may he be cured of this ailment soon...

May he feel no pain..."

[boombirdy]

[Two Time kneels on a grave near her, the name Azure printed on it. She can't hear their prayer, but she does hear the word "Spawn"]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"Two Time?"

Jane stands up, approaching Two Time quietly and slowly.

[boombirdy]

[They finish, and look up]

"Hello, friend. You wish to speak to me?"

[jane-doe-forsaken]

[Taph had been very weary of the scary lady since she arrived, intimidated by her purple hair and axe... but after Dusekkar had decided to befriend her, Taph had gotten some confidence. She appeared behind Jane, accidentally being extremely sneaky, in an eerily similar way to Two Time. He then realized he had no other way to get her attention, so he tapped her shoulder. She quickly flinched back after doing so.]

- @boombirdy

Jane startled and turned around to see Taph. She hadn't really interacted with her much in the past- she'd heard loads from Dusekarr as they were dating, but not much conversation went on between them aside from the occasional 'thanks for the med-kit.' or, 'could you put a trip mine here?'

"Hi, Taph, do you need anything?"

Her voice was a bit shaky... she'd probably been crying again. The previous round she'd seen her husband, who'd looked worse than ever. She'd spent the entire round after she'd seen her husband curled up in a corner until John had found her and killed her- which wasn't unusual.

[boombirdy]

[He fumbled through her pouch, eventually pulling out a leather sack. It was high quality made, with something heavy inside. She carefully handed it to her.]

"🎁"

(It's.. it's a gi- gift.)

[He looked hopeful that she would open it.]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

Jane took the gift, studying the pouch. She had no suspicions that this was malicious-- while Taph could be a bit chaotic sometimes, she was a good soul, and they were comrades.

"Oh! Uh, t-thank you, Taph. What's in here...?"

[boombirdy]

🫳😁 🐦

(Open it! It's co.. cool. In my opinion.)

[Taph pulled up his bandana for seemingly no reason, but Jane suspected she was blushing.]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"Okay... I'll take your word for it."

Jane smiled slightly and opened the package.

[boombirdy]

[Inside was a necklace. It was golden, with similar rune inscriptions to Taph's robes. In the medallion, there was a chunk of black, glowing rock, with a protection spell around it. Jane quickly realized what the rock was... it was Corruption. How did Taph acquire this??]

"🫴✨️🕑"

(It boosts your magic, but it's temporary and needs time to recharge.)

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"...Oh...! This is..."

Jane puts on the medallion.

"Thank you, Taph. This very... interesting..."

[boombirdy]

"🙏"

(You're welcome!)

[Taph scurried away, leaving Jane alone with her thoughts... and the floating blue pumpkin beside her. Dusekkar floated in front of her, inspecting the medallion]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"Hello, Dusek. You got yourself a good partner- she's kind."

Jane said, slightly awkwardly. She took off the medallion an inspected it.

"Do you know how Taph got this?"

[boombirdy]

"I believe I do; But what about you? The stone mirrors your soul; the one other to make you whole."

[Dusekkar held the medallion]

"Taph acquired the code from a place unknown, but this is certain; you must use caution: Danger comes from wistfulness; be wary of the abyss."

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"...Your poems intrigue me..."

Jane slipped the medallion into her bag, along with the runes she always carried for rounds.

THIS ROUNDS KILLER IS: JOHN DOE

"Dear spawn, no, not again."

[boombirdy]

[Taph was not in the round, but Dusekkar was. He was right next to Jane at the start]

"Be not afraid; this beast will be contained."

[He pointed to the medallion in her bag]

[jane-doe-forsaken]

Even though Jane had seen her husband a billion times in rounds before, she would still have the same reaction every time.

She seemed to ignore Dusekarr, and slowly walked off to go hide somewhere. There she'd stay, until John found her.

This time, the map was Yoricks Resting Place. She walked until she got to the graveyard, and there on the tomb, was written John Doe.

There, she kneeled, saying a small prayer, than sat down, her back resting against the tomb. She buried her face in her knees, and tried to distract herself with her thoughts.

[boombirdy]

[It wasn't long before John found her. He growled, attempting to speak, but failing. He slowly approached her, claws moving in anticipation. He roared, preparing to strike... but when he swung, Jane didn't feel anything. Dusekkar had used his shield, protecting her. John tried to attack again, but Guest suddenly blocked the swipe, before punching him. Guest picked her up, and ran away with speed given by Dusekkar's zap.]

"You gotta stop doing that."

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"What are you- No, guest, don't waste your strength!"

[boombirdy]

[He chuckled]

"Heh, I'm fine. We need to get you back in the fight, though."

[He sat her down, popping his back.]

"Let's go help Dusekkar, kay?"

[jane-doe-forsaken]

"I am not fighting my husband. Leave me."

Jane stood up, and starts walking, drifting back to the graveyard.

[boombirdy]

[He put his hands up in surrender.]
