[action] Welcome to the Nexus

[extremelucidity]

[ This is Madotsuki's dream, but curiously enough, Madotsuki herself is nowhere to be found. Instead, whoever happens to stray into this dream finds themself in massive black room, with intricate patterns carved on the floor in silver. Apart from the circle of doors in the center of the room, there is absolutely nothing here. The room is dark and cold and silent and lonely. Going too far in any direction just results in returning to the center of the room. So, there's only one thing to do to progress; pick a door.

Which door? ]


[[ooc: HOW COULD I NOT DO THIS YOU GUYS... here is a handy-dandy map of the Nexus for you all. <3 ]]

[It takes N a moment to get used to his new surroundings. He turns, surveying the area with a forced calmness, though he does find himself shivering slightly-- perhaps because of the cold, though it could also be the area's simple bleakness. So it seems that most people's dreams tend to be unnerving...

Looking at the doors, he isn't sure which one to pick, or if he should choose one at all. He almost expects to feel an aura to guide him, but finds none. So he decides, despite his reluctance, to go with his intuition. He walks forward, almost wandering, and stops at the first door that doesn't seem too dangerous. It's gray, with geometric symbols on it. Seems fitting enough. He reaches out a hand, touching the door briefly to make sure it won't harm him before he opens it, stepping into Block World.]

WELL GUESS WHO'S EVEN LATER, common cold why you do this

[extremelucidity]

[ The world on the other side of the door looks like a maze constructed out of lilac, off-white and purple toy blocks. They're shaped like tetris blocks -- some Ls, some lines and they seem to be arranged in a pattern resembling some kind of motherboard. There isn't a floor in the traditional sense; just blackness but nothing seems to be at risk of falling into the yawning void under the lack of floor. ]

OH MAN HAHA you feeling better now though?? ;u;

[the_nth_power]

[N has some difficulty forcing himself to push aside his natural expectation of logic in the dream world. The new scenery startles him initially, and he has to bite back a yelp of alarm upon seeing the lack of a floor. He frowns and stops to take in the new area. He's reminded eerily of toys he used to play with as a child, and of mechanisms he's looked at-- computers and the metallic insides of Pokeballs he's shattered before.

Cautiously, he steps out onto the void, and soon grows accustomed to walking on what seems to be thin air. No way to go but forward, right?]

better-ish, I was fine for a bit then got really bad again but hopefully I am okay now ;v;

[extremelucidity]

[ There doesn't seem to be much in this world, apart from all the blocks, that is. It's just as quiet as the Nexus; even more so, since there's no floor to walk on, eliminating the possibility of footsteps.

After what might be hours or seconds -- it's impossible to tell -- something appears on the horizon. It appears to be a scarf and hat, floating unsupported in mid-air. ]

Gosh that sounds rough-- I hope you stay okay this time! ;u;

[the_nth_power]

[The scarf and hat probably would have gone unnoticed by him, if not for how stark they are in contrast to the surroundings. He only hesitates for a moment this time before he makes his way forward, toward the two items. There doesn't seem to be much else he can do, after all.

Once he reaches them, he's a bit unsure as to what he should do with them, so he experimentally reaches out toward the hat with one hand.]

same here sob *JUST DIES*

[extremelucidity]

[ As his hand reaches out towards them, the hat and scarf jerk away from his touch, rather abruptly. For a moment, they're still and silent then with no more sound than anything else in this world makes, the image of a small, short-haired girl seems to simply appear in the space where the hat and scarf's owner should be.

There are heavy bags under her eyes and her eyes are dark. She stares balefully at him, as if demanding to know what he's doing there. ]

I BELIEVE IN YOU

[the_nth_power]

[He only blinks at the sudden movement, having prepared himself for something worse to occur. When the girl appears, though, he takes a small step back, somewhat startled. He reminds himself that this is a dream; he really shouldn't be so surprised that a girl just appeared out of thin air.]

... Hello. [She's giving him a rather unnerving look...] I apologize if I intruded-- I'm afraid I'm not quite sure where I am. Could you tell me?
