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!

You certainly don't pull any punches when it comes to being direct.

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?

[Heh. It's just enough to drag a huff of a laugh from Akechi, who shrugs nonchalantly in return.]

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.

[ It's sad to hear someone explain that they'd rather not exist. He's heard and seen many people's life stories through meeting people but also through the glimpse Ammit's staff gave him. When judging their soul portions of their lives flashed before his eyes. He's seen death, destruction and the lowest manner humans can treat each other: it never makes the residual damage to others from evil any easier to see. ]

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.

[That is... actually... good advice. Huh.

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.

Arthur Harrow. Just call me Arthur.

[ 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. ]

[At the mention of Ren, Akechi rolls his eyes, huffing.]

I shouldn't be surprised. Amamiya makes friends everywhere he goes. He's insufferable.

I don't think I've met anyone who likes coffee quite as much as him, but I can see it.

He tries to get you to be social?

He's the only one I'll trust to make my coffee here, if you needed the recommendation.

[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.

He's trying to be a good friend to you. The more you accept people when they try to help you the easier of a time you're going to have...even if it doesn't always feel that way.

Anyway, that feels like enough lecturing. Sorry. I kind of get ahead of myself. Good to know about the coffee.

[oh god, is this what being parented at feels like?]

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.

Good. The feeling is mutual.

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.

[now THAT is definitely what being parented feels like. And maybe it doesn't suck completely.]

Likewise.
