Chapter One: END

If Akihiko had to describe the day’s events in a single word, it would be “soul-crushing.”

When Akihiko woke up this morning, there were (at least to his knowledge) zero people in the group dead. And now, as everyone slowly filed out of the “courtroom” with varying levels of broken despair on their faces, two of them had died. Noah and Goro. Akihiko didn’t know either of them too well, but neither of them deserved the end they got. Even murder didn’t justify the punishment Goro had received...Akihiko had to look away as the blood rose upwards over Goro, but the blood-stained scene left afterwards was downright sickening.

“We’re all murderers, now,” he heard someone say. His first reaction was to think No, not all of us--he’d been one of the few people not to cast their vote--but he knew that wasn’t true. Vote or no, he had been a part of Goro’s death. Akihiko’s shoulders sagged as he felt the weight of this sink in. Having blood on his hands was something he hoped to never get used to, especially after seeing the saying brought to life in such a horrifying manner.

Powerless...there was that familiar feeling. Once again, faced with someone’s death, Akihiko had been powerless to do anything. If he had just...if he had just what? Punched a little girl? Pulled his Evoker against the one with the gun? Tried to free Goro from his execution? If only he could summon Caeser here...no, he was not going into that mindset again.

He finally tore his gaze from the detective’s final act and filed into the elevator. No, he couldn’t give up here...he still had people to fight for, and would he do his best to the very end. Still, that didn’t make the churning in his gut or the fog in his head or the gentle weeping he heard any easier to bear.

Once the elevator opened its doors at the lobby with a soft ‘ding,’ Akihiko stepped out into the room, and stopped, unsure where to go. He was exhausted from the day’s events, but he got restless when he was stressed...no way he could go back to his room yet. He simply stood and watched as everyone else wandered out of the room, leaving just a couple of other anguishing souls in the room with him.

🌊DV Verse but it’s Real🌊

I’m working on the final boss for DV Verse!

Her name is Marin Devere and I’m working on the exact world building/backstory/evil villain plan for her but basically she’s most of the reason why The Elegance of the Sea is Like That and may or may not be the incarnation of an eldritch sea deity.

Feat. A short 3 panel comic of her emerging from the ocean.

🧸Another OC for the Deep Vessel,🧸

Her name is Candice “Candy” Acker! She’s one of the kid’s club counselors onboard the Elegance as part of the youth staff! While she’s on the reserved side, but she takes her job of taking care of the kids at club very seriously and will go out of her way to make sure the kids are in good hands.

While she’s very warm and friendly towards kids, she can flip completely in demeanor, quickly becoming cold and even venomous towards adults who she deems as “untrustworthy”. What counts as “untrustworthy” in her eyes seems to be based on snap judgments/biases and a general suspiciousness towards people who don’t immediately come off as “friendly and upbeat”, especially towards kids...

🎩Yet another OC for DV Verse🎩

His name is Dmitry Love! He’s a comedic stage magician working onboard The Elegance as one of many headline guest entertainers! He’s been onboard the ship for a while now on a contract, and he is one the first friends Imani and Elinor make onboard.

Dmitry gets along especially well with Elinor as both have common ground such as them both being trans, both being headline guest entertainers, and both having a flair for the dramatic. As for Imani, he seems to be intrigued by her quick wit and perceptiveness, seeing her intellect as a mark of being a worthy equal to his own cunning...
