R1 DEADLAND

[lockdownmods]

[it’s strange, for the people who were already dead, the shift in scenery is sudden and complete. For those who have just arrived? It’s like you’re back where you left?

How strange.

But if you ever need her, you can always reach out to the guardian of this place.]

[No he's. He's pretty sure that happened to him too, Maya, but he won't correct her on that at least.]

I know... but that shouldn't have happened to you.

[He folds his hands behind his back, looking down. Maya may have some expectations about death, being a spiritual medium, so he thinks he should explain a little just in case it's different than what she thought. It's definitely different from what he expected after all.]

We can't see the living from here or hear their thoughts, but I'm sure everyone's sad that they couldn't prevent it. So I'm saying it for them. I hope that's okay.

[It's how he feels too, if he had any power to help victims before they died. But "assist victims" is still on the agenda for him, especially if they're his friends.]

I'm here to help, whatever you need.

[Thanks, buddy.]

So nobody can see us, and we can't see them. I mean, I guess that's basically how it should be when you're... [It's really not...exactly like how she was picturing the spirit world to be? But that isn't the main thing on her mind at the moment.

Suddenly, she's trying to jump to her feet.]

W-wait! Yoosung! I... I remember things!

[starswink]

[Trying? He can help her if she needs someone to steady her...!!! But his lips twitch slightly at the corners. He remembered things too... things he would rather have stayed forgotten. Her urgency makes him think it wasn't that bad, but on the other hand it could be pretty bad in a different way.]

Re-Really? Um... Good things? Bad things?

[itwasfeyt]

[Trying is the key word, because she's somewhat tired, and shaken from being dead, so offering to help is!! Good, Yoosung!!]

G-good things! And bad? Both! [It's making her head swim, but by god she's trying.] I-I'm actually 19! I know who Mr. Armando is!

[...]

My mother...!

[starswink]

[Okay then he'll just put his hands on her shoulders or something.]

That doesn't sound like the name of your mother...!

[And he doesn't really think it is, so.]

Slow down... maybe you should take a breath. What happened? ...And should I wish you a happy birthday?

[itwasfeyt]

Wh- No! [No, Yoosung!!!!]

Uhh, maybe? ...No, I've been 19 for a while now. Maybe even a year now.

[He can see her brown crease, steam practically pouring from her ears as she attempts to run over everything in her mind.]

...I was never really in any danger back home. Nick, he saved me... twice.

[...Actually, she looks like she might need to sit back down.]
