Pandora's Fox II
PANDORA'S FOX II
If you were here last June, do you remember that app that appeared on the relics then, Pandora's Fox? It's all about finding your Familiar bond. It's been available for people to use since every Star Child was forced to fill it out or have it filled out for them with its grand reveal. However, it's sat quietly in the background unobtrusive to those who didn't click to see what it was about.
Until now.
That's right, Pandora's Fox is back! (and with a makeover). The app has been rejiggered with old questions and new, including some specific to each Role! The app will buzz and open itself with a blank profile waiting to be filled out. Star Children can fill it out for themselves—as long as they don't lie. This app will not allow Star Children to lie. Honesty is important in a Familiar bond. Star Children who lie may find that answer filled in a little too honestly and unable to be deleted. Anyone who waits too long to fill it in will find it answered for them!
Familiar bonds come in all different shapes and sizes, so find the right person for you!
This is game canon!
Forms for your characters!

No, he's nothing like Masayoshi Shido, his prideful, narcissistic, endlessly cruel father, but Akechi still let himself be manipulated by the man, let him push a gun into Akechi's small hand and show him how to use it in his name. Even after everything he's done, the teenager holds very little regret over his own actions, but letting himself be fooled by the very man he sought to destroy will always fill him with the same nauseating shame.
How stupid, to think for even one pathetic moment that he was simply grateful to be seen as useful to his father. He was so weak.
Thankfully, to hear that this stranger is just as dead as he is enough to drag Akechi from his thoughts, brow arching curiously upwards beneath his bangs. There seem to only be a very small handful of dead here, and for too long, Akechi thought he was the only one.]
Agreed. Her motivations are confusing at best. I can't tell if it's because she's so split between her different iterations or if she is purposely obtuse just to keep all of us from discovering her true intentions. [Either way, it's very annoying.]
Might I ask you a question, from one dead man to another?
no subject
Sure.
[ One dead man to another. Sounds like a terrible club to be in and yet here they are. ]
no subject
Would you remain here if given the chance, even imprisoned under the Fox? Or would you rather return to the ground?
no subject
I'd stay. The idea of nothingness is frightening, I'm not too proud to say. If I'm still able to learn or improve myself then there is always something worth doing.
What about you?
cw: suicidal ideations - akechi please stop its a fun meme
What can I say? I've never been the type to soften myself for the sake of others.
[But he listens, really listens, quietly considering what Arthur has to say. Always something worth doing? Hm. Perhaps.]
I'm not afraid to die. The nothingness is what I wanted for so long, to just stop existing, to disappear into the sea of souls so the last pieces of Goro Akechi would finally cease to be. I can't stand the thought of anyone else controlling me again. [a soft beat]
"I would rather die standing than live on my knees."
[But then there had been Ren...]
But I've found reasons to stay. I've promised nothing but I can't lie that the possibility exists.

Maybe you're giving yourself too much of an ultimatum. It doesn't have to be one way or the other-- there's plenty of gray in between the black and white.
[ He shrugs. There was a time where he might be more eloquent, able to conjure some inspirational examples. Here? He's more tired, questions more and is maybe slightly more aware that no one likes being preached at. ]
Just because we live in her world doesn't mean we always have to play by her rules. Maybe it's an opportunity more than anything-- something to take advantage of in a way. Possibility-- yeah, there's always some. But really it's not much of a way to live thinking of what could happen.
If it's any consolation, I believe you when you say no one's going to control you again. You're able to recognize what got you to this point.
no subject
Akechi has been looking at everything in regards to his life in black and white for so long, that he'd maybe lost the art of nuance, of being able to step back out of his direct life and look at it from a less biased perspective. Maybe he's been thinking of the choices he has in too certain of terms.
Maybe there was a third option that didn't mean total surrender of his autonomy. This wasn't Shido using Akechi as his loyal guard dog and this wasn't Maruki holding his life hostage, so maybe he could simply allow himself to be here, with Ren, and be... happy? Perhaps?
The weight of even a perhaps is staggering.]
I never learned your name.
no subject
[ The whole name seems needlessly formal. ]
You're friends with Ren, right? He told me to find you quite a long time ago. I was asking if anyone else here was deceased. Guess I found you eventually.
[ It's been a busy few months for everyone. ]
no subject
I shouldn't be surprised. Amamiya makes friends everywhere he goes. He's insufferable.
no subject
He tries to get you to be social?
no subject
[Not biased in the slightest.]
Naturally. I assume he's certain I'll wilt away into another one of Folkmore's spirits if he doesn't bully me into it.
no subject
Anyway, that feels like enough lecturing. Sorry. I kind of get ahead of myself. Good to know about the coffee.
no subject
I'm aware. [Ren is better than Akechi deserves, but he's just selfish enough to not care.] I know better than to take his presence in my life for granted.
[please do not read this, ren, akechi will fucking DIE]
It hardly matters. Our conversation has been compelling enough, I suppose. I've enjoyed myself.
no subject
I have a feeling some things will be kind of a mess when and if we get back to something familiar. If you need any help don't be a stranger.
no subject
Likewise.
