Who: Everyone
When: Day 5, bright and early in the morning
Where: Labyrinth!
What: A daring labyrinth

[you somehow land into this labyrinth with a hard thud, sending clouds of dust flying everywhere. what you're in now is a stone room that has a flickering torch placed on each wall. it smells a bit dingy in here, like what one might picture an actual labyrinth or dungeon to smell like.

there doesn't actually seem to be much worth investigating in this room, aside from a sign and three old, wooden doors before you. the sign reads:

"If you risk it all, you gain it all. If you risk nothing, you gain nothing."

somehow, very inexplicably so, you get the strange sense that the riskier you play, the better the prize.]

Distracting the snakes, you mean.

[ there were better ways to distract the snakes. but. whatev. looking back to where mika was swimming. ]

We should go through the door.

[ Just gives Yuu the biggest 'You are an idiot' look, before nodding and turning back to go through the underwater door! ]

[through the slimy water, and then through the underwater door you go

as you go through, you suddenly drop into a dark room; the only light you can make out is on the other side of the room... however, you can hear scratchy-sounding oldies playing from one corner of the room. someone really likes their old tv/radio stuff.

for the guy who can see: there's many large boulders settled around the perimeter of this room; on one nearest to you two is a portable record player, which is the source of this music.

there's also a huge, sleeping dragon in the middle of the floor not far from where you two fell. it's snoring very softly, though it's weird, long legs stick out from underneath it.

on the other side of this dragon is an archway leading into an area with some light.

but in order to get there, you'd have to get past this dragon first.]

Yuu-chan.

Stay quiet and. Don't. Move.

[ well IT'S A GOOD THING MIKA SAID SOMETHING or someone would have taken steps in!! without even thinking about it!!

... but rest assured he is still making a face at this music. ]

[ Considers this all for a long, silent moment.

Then turns and picks Yuu up and SPEEDILY AND QUIETLY CARRY HIM to the archway, around the dragon. Vampires are OP!! ]

[you get past the dragon, which sleeps soundly, and you're just about to make it to the archway, which certainly seems to lead into a hallway with fancy lights on the wall.]

[ SHOVING AT MIKA 8| ]

Put me down! You didn't have to carry me!

Yuu-chan! Shh!

[ Going to put Yuu down but DON'T BE SO LOUD ]

[ Just, HUFFS. I'm GOING TO THE FANCY LOOKING PLACE. WITH THE FANCY LIGHTS. YOU CAN'T STOP ME MIKA. ]

[YUU'RE LUCKY THE DRAGON DIDN'T WAKE, SMH

the hall you enter has fancy sconces on the wall, but now that you're in here you can see the occasional moth flying around. gross. there is fancy carpet. fancy wallpaper. it's pretty snazzy in here.

there are two paths to go from here in this hallway: you can turn right, towards the sound of piano playing, or left, towards the low rolls of timpani drums.]

[ Sighs once they're safe. Honestly, Mika doesn't have a preference for direction, and he knows he has to let Yuu do SOMETHING or else things might just get worse. ]

Would it kill you to trust me, Yuu-chan? Anyway, this tie you can choose where to go.

[ He sighs, just a little. ]

I didn't say I didn't trust you. Come on let's go this way.

[ AND OF COURSE YUU IS GOING LEFT... ]

You have no idea what else was in that room, Yuu-chan.

[ Buuut for all his reprimanding, he'll follow Yuu along. ]

[yuu soon come across a large, spacious room. it's dim, but not dark, so it's easy to make out what's in here... which is almost nothing. there's a stage that house a pair of timpani, which are being played by... magic? an invisible person? maybe they're playing themselves. behind the timpani are a set of thick curtains that haven't been pulled aside.

before the stage, where there would usually be many seats, is a potion stand, like what you would see along the street during a market. there are many colorful potions sitting atop the counter. manning this stand is a person with long white hair, warts on their face, and little nails and screws for finger nails.

"Oh, two charmers! Welcome! Please, try a potion!"]

Mika?

[ be reasonable Yuu, don't just grab shit. looks at Mika and the potions.... ]

[ NOPE NOT TRUSTING THIS ]

No.

[ BUT ARENT WE SUPPOSED TO BE DARING??? ]

What if we split one?

[ :|a ]

No.

[ sighs. ]

Fine.

[ So Mika is just going to nod and ignore the woman to go and investigate what is behind the curtain instead. ]

[the woman calls out to them. "Oh? A pair of cowards, are you?"

when you pull the curtain apart, you're met with darkness... but you can see in the dark! you happen to see some cloaked figures messing around with some boxes that have a red fluid seeping out of the corners.]

[ Ignoring the woman, Mika is going to immediately cover his mouth and nose and back the hell up, because that's blood!!! ]

[ HE WAS ABOUT TO NOT LET THIS OLD WOMAN TALK SMACK, but Mika is backing up and has his nose covered. ]

Hey Mika— oh.

[ At the very least it's not like Mika's now low on blood, but he is shuddering and forcing himself to breathe evenly.

He drops the curtain closed. ]
