18:30 - DR. EDMUND BASSETT - A LITTLE HOUSE

[∆§Indea§∆]

Edmund-

"Mmm you're not wrong. Okay, I can do that. As long as I see my wife as my wife and not some demonic monster, I guess I can work on getting used to this. Just out of curiosity, how does it all manifest in the other world? Can schizophrenics see it or are those their own illusions? If I could see what thing was causing a problem could I get it to go away? "

I took a more demure drink of wine.

Lisa-
"Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, right? Sometimes schizophrenics are just what they appear to be. Other times... It's hard to say which comes first; does their condition help them to see through the illusion? Or does seeing through worsen their condition? You know, I really have enjoyed our conversation tonight. There aren't many intellectuals in our number, sadly."

Edmund-

"Ha. What I would do for a cigar right now. It's the same as nature versus nurture then. At least I know seeing through the veil doesn't necessarily make you mentally ill.

Thank you. I can't say you're what I expected, though I can't say I ever expected to speak with Mills' mother. I'm surprised he didn't inherit more of your smarts unless he hides it well.


Well uh what happens now? I probably should get back to Harriet, unless you know the way out?"

I looked towards the door where the monstrous insects had been.

Lisa-
"Well thank you. I suppose neglect and poor childhood nutrition could have played a part, but who has time to cook, right? Well, now I do! Hahaha. Anyway, I believe if you just step through the door there and click your heels together..."

I went to stand up then caught myself as I was hit with a sudden intense wave of emotion. My psych felt like it had been sawn in two. I began sobbing uncontrollably, great big tears rolling down my cheeks.

Edmund-

"Sssorry… Sorry. I don't know what's h..happening. I feel weirrd. Don't let me get eaten. So.. So I just go through that door , no tricks? You're verry nice. Can I? Can I have a hug first?"

[◊◊BLOODBEASTER◊◊]

Lisa rolled her eyes.

Lisa-
"You sound like my kids. You'll be fine, doctor. You'll have a whole new lease on life. Put your faith in the Dark Mother, she'll be there for you even when no one else is."

The house was so warm, and the cold from outside was radiating off the front window. Cold and damp. You could already imagine the water sloshing around inside your shoes.

Lisa waved her hand like a mother encouraging her child to dive into the pool.

"Go on. You're fine. You'll be fine."

I wiped at the tear running down my face, sniffing as my nose began to run.


Edmund-

"You're right... You're right. I could really use something... Darrk mother... That sounds comforting. Fine, fine. Fine."


^{"Pleeease….}

"Can I have a jumper at least? No. No Why would.. Okay... Goodbye."

I pushed myself out the door with a loud snotty cry.

[◊◊BLOODBEASTER◊◊]

Outside the door, something hit you with blinding pain. Agony, your head smashing apart and your body being torn limb from limb. You saw nothing but a foggy void around you, though it was swiftly growing darker. Your body was visibly intact yet you had the sensation of it being ripped apart.

I screamed until I my voice was horse and nothing came out but a wheezing groan from deep inside of me. I clenched my hands that couldn’t possibly be there. Shoving them in front of my eyes to remind myself they were there.She had tricked me. There was no other explanation. Into a nothingness void I had invertedly chosen. I had meant that there would be nothing left, nothing to even care. I wish I had got that last bit of human comfort.

((Roll 2d10+ Will to hold onto a shred of your sanity!))

You couldn't hold onto it. Your mind splintered apart with the agony. There was nothing left of you; no thoughts, no memories. You only felt the torment as your body was remolded into a new shape...
