SHOWMASTER HEART GAME (SATURDAY)

[showmaster]

A familiar voice can be heard above you, you're not sure if they're talking to you or not but it does feel like you're part of this conversation:

"What a Wonderful Story that you have. I've read it many times when I was feeling sad. You know, I wanted to keep it in my personal collection, but it doesn't seem that's going to be possible. To grant my wish, I'd have to sacrifice what it means to be a reader ... to become the story. That's The End that I'm looking for.

You really have cracked it, then. Isn’t the psychological stress on a DREAMER a bit excessive, though? Depending on the Blessings?

Re: cw body horror probably

[ticketmaster]

Not at all. You see, blessings are naturally limited, aren't they? No one is born with the power to set the whole world on fire. Once it is used up, so is the energy that's used. So likewise, with these new blessings, they, too, have limits.

For example, if one can create a large vessel, damage to the vessel will cause direct damage to the host. If a vessel carries a large amount of pain, erasing the memories of the pain will balance it out.

How useful.

D’you mind if I speak to the subject directly?

Re: cw body horror probably

[ticketmaster]

Feel free, it's fine.

C’mere, miss Estoria. Let me have a good look at you.

[She slowly comes over, hesitant, staring up at her.

She doesn't say anything.]

[tricksyvixie]

[reaches slowly for her hand]

Can you tell me a little about how you’ve been?

Re: cw body horror probably

[frontdesk]

[She just stares up at her as if this is a trick question. She won't fight back if her hand is grabbed but she doesn't grab back either.]

[she just very gently touches Estoria’s hand, and tries to use a Blessing

the ability is, essentially, swapsies: she can switch one thing or person she can see with something else in a different location, as long as she can picture the thing and location with exact clarity and they are not massively far apart. she is trying to transport this baby to her room on the Producer floor, and replace her with a pot of flowers from there

she does not expect this to actually work! but it is worth a try]
