Into Imagination, Pt. 2: The Labyrinth

[Enzo and Lilipup walk the dirt path of the labyrinth. They chose the leftmost path from the entrance, but from there, it's been a series of twists and turns. Then again, what were they expecting? As of now, it's been a mostly straight shot, and things have been quiet. Very quiet...]

...S-So! Um, big me? -🩵

Hm? What's up, Lilipup? Ooh, hey, I like that, that's a good catchphrase... -🩵

I was just wondering...about that bracelet. -🩵

[Lilipup points at the shiny bracelet on Enzo's wrist, standing out among the other bracelets he has]

You said a friend made it for you? Cuz from what I understand, the bracelets are kinda your thing. -🩵

Oh, this one? Yeah, Ann made it. You remember them, right? The one who screamed "CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!!!" -🩵

[Enzo assumes a pose similar to what Ann did, in an attempt to jog Lilipup's memory further. Lilipup just stares at him]

...Right. Them. -🩵

Yeah! I mean, honestly, I think they're one of my best friends. Don't tell the guys, but I feel like I can talk to them about anything, y'know? They just seem to...get me, and they know exactly how to pull me out of the dumps, no matter what. It's kind of awesome... -🩵

[There's a series of knocks. Unrecognizable knocks.]

@subtle-sides

(OOC: ZK, @/jimmysbrainandsoul's partner :3)

*Logan is confused. It's fairly late, who would be knocking at this hour? He stands from his desk and walks over to open the door*

[jimmysbrainandsoul]

Ann:*Rises up back in Tetra's room*

Tetra: Oh, you're back. How did it go.

Ann: You'll see. :3c

( @subtle-sides )

Hmph. Your little idea didn't go so well—? - 📘

*bzzzzz*

What the...? -📘

[Hugo pulls out his phone]

Hey

U busy? -🎧

[His eyes narrow. What is this?]

As a matter of fact, yes, I am. What do you want? -📘

Found a song. Thought of you. -🎧

[The message has a song link attached to it. "Good-Old Fashioned Lover Boy" by Queen... Casey knows Queen is one of Hugo's guilty pleasures]

What...? -📘

[jimmysbrainandsoul]

Ann: CASEY! YOU SHOULD CONFESS TO HUGO! :3

[Casey practically hits the ceiling, eyes glowing a harsh violet and shaking]

[He slaps a hand over his mouth]

...Warning next time. -🎧

Zara:*Is staring at Leo, clearly thinking of something*

( @subtle-sides )

[Leo raises an eyebrow, smirking]

Thinking of new pick-up lines to K.O. me with, love? Come on, hit me. I'm not so easily flustered nowadays... -🎭

[jimmysbrainandsoul]

Hey Leo~

Wanna help me test lipsticks?

-Zara

[Leo falls over]

...Hell happened to you? -🎧

MY POOKIE HAS REQUESTED MY ASSISTANCE I MUST GO LIKE THE VALIANT KNIGHT I AM -🎭

...what? -🎧

LEAVE ME TO MY BUSINESS!!!!!! -🎭

[He sinks out dramatically]

HELLO DARLING I HATH ARRIVED! -🎭

[jimmysbrainandsoul]

Hey my Hades, could you meet me in my room? I wanna see you💕

-Zara

Of course, my Persephone~! Hehe! -🎭

Oh my god, get a room. -🎧

WE WILL! In...in a moment! Screw you! -🎭

[Leo sinks out, giving Casey the stink eye. He reappears in Zara's room]

Your Hades is here, darling~~!!! -🎭

Into Imagination

[There they stand, at the door. Jamie, his Sides, their younger selves, Zara, Dami, and ZK. Beyond this very door lies the Imagination: A blank canvas that can be molded to any Side's whim. And somewhere in there, Deceit is hiding]

Are these outfits entirely necessary? Could we not just do this in our normal clothes? -📘

We have no idea what could be out there! Better safe than sorry, in my opinion. -🎭

Fair enough, but it feels a bit...much. And the backpacks? When we can summon things at will? -📘

[For context, the entire group has changed into color-coded hiking outfits, with the older Sides and humans carrying large backpacks. The kind of thing you'd see in an adventure film]

I know you don't spend a lot of time in the Imagination, Hugo, but even you should remember it's not that simple. Whoever's controlling the place can summon whatever they want, but anyone else is limited. Whatever we might need, we'll have to take it in with us. -🎭
