Oh, hello.

It's rather dark here, it's midnight for the New Years, and it's very, very loud outside. It's a frightening noise. The rise and crackle. There's no worry, though. You're safe in here. Safe. Warm.

It's been awhile since you've heard of your name. Hey... what was it again?

(all responses are write-ins. do whatever you want. say whatever you want to say. write like ">this", to tell the young gal whatever you want. these are simply suggestions for her, but she's not one who is rebellious.)

Spoiler

(much more information will be revealed as we go through this. i'll try to post one each day. may be more often, may be less often. depends.)


(we'll get to go with multiple characters later on, if it's successful.)






(what are you talking about of course this isn't somewhat inspired by homestuck. or. not somewhat. extremely.)


(it's also extremely experimental and sort of strange in it's concept. sorry if the art looks sort of weird and messy. i'm kind of trying out a new style sort of. i'm hoping to improve on it, though. along with getting outside my comfort zone a little, too. same with my english, haha.)


(sorry.)

That's a neat name, you suppose. A lovely, perfect first name, though you aren't sure if it fits exactly.


Doesn't matter, though. It doesn't have to. That's your name. A name.


How would you have forgotten in the first place?


--


There's nothing much to do in here, right now.


Since it's such a monumental day, with loud fireworks that won't let anyone go to sleep. Many of the other people are probably out there without their mobiles setting up those very fireworks that are so loud and extremely loud and scary and please stop it. Thankfully, they're not close enough to your house where the lights of them flash into your room, but the noise is still there. The loud noises.


You could sleep, but you aren't feeling particularly sleepy right now. It's hard, even though it's dark and it's night time, it's so loud outside. The distant blasts and booms outside. It's so very loud. You wouldn't be able to focus on your sweet dreams. You can't sleep.


But, there's other things to do.


You could look at the things you already have around you. You could do something while you wait for it to all end, and people to just go to sleep already so you could lie on the ground in peace. You do have things and possessions, don't you? Any hobbies and interests? Just anything we're just unable to see due to the camera angle? Anything you'd want to get a closer look at?

Through the curtains? Where outside is? Where others could possibly see you?!


Well... It IS dark in here, and people are unlikely going to look at some secluded area on top of a mountain in the middle of some festivals and parties.


Plus. There's not many people around your area, at least. Not right now.


... Alright.


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/fdsds.jpg.72b16ec70a3df9eb63e61f4221265480.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="119535" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/fdsds.jpg.72b16ec70a3df9eb63e61f4221265480.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


Maybe just a peak?

the crackle is starting again.

That's the kingdom of the blue people, over there. But they're not there. The festival is somewhere different. It's far though, where they're shooting it from. Farther than the kingdom. Hidden through the ocean. The bright, blue ocean.


But the fireworks are so large.


It's bright. So very bright.


It's hurting your eyes.

The cabinet?


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/dafdsfads.jpg.0ed0ad4f121de7b1d1a1747906aed221.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="119606" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/dafdsfads.jpg.0ed0ad4f121de7b1d1a1747906aed221.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


The cabinet is filled with clothes. The bottom two are filled with just clothing, the ones that your aunt gifts you near the end of each half a year, as a celebration of you surviving. Most of them are handy downs, of course, but there are a few new ones from the local thrift shop. But the top, the top you can't exactly recall. Just like your name earlier, you've run into a blank.


Is it useful? You aren't sure, it could be either way, because your head is straight into a blank. But, whatever it is, it's something you treasure very much. Even if you haven't seen it for a long time, you're quite sure of it.

Nice!


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/dsfsdf.jpg.c1033ee59c9a9eb43a3a5b54f45d883c.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="119757" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/dsfsdf.jpg.c1033ee59c9a9eb43a3a5b54f45d883c.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


Yes! There they went!


You have enjoyed bird watching and exploring for as long as you could remember. You could remember, when you were very young, where you'd just walk around the vast and expansive mountains and wandered in within unexplored caves alone in the hidden parts of your village, sometimes picking up bits of metal yourself. You could remember walking throughout the dense and thick forest, with nobody but yourself, gazing at the colorful and large birds within hollowed out trees up a couple stories high. You would sometimes attempt to climb them.


You could remember, almost like it was all a dream. How did you get so fearful?


Unfortunately, it's been more difficult to do things like that, especially by yourself. You were able to walk around in the relatively empty and secluded areas around your home, still, but you had limited time to do such a thing. And it's something you can't do right now, seeing as you're all holed up in here, almost outside your own will.


Recently, you've gotten into other interests, too. You began reading the books that were too difficult for you in your younger years, and began looking through philosophy. You still aren't sure of your own philosophy, but gazing into other people's ideas and pondering over then has given you a different sort of perspective. You think. You have a bunch of those sort of books right in here, but you have other books outside this one single drawer as well. You don't think those other books would be as interesting, however.


As you gaze upon the items, you hear a knock on the door.

[Lord Zanicus]

[budgieboo]

>Hide behind the curtain, holding the flashlight as a weapon


>Grab flashlight and hide under bed


You realize you're supposed to be asleep at that time, and you quickly make the decision to hide.


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/DFDSaFDa.jpg.be5abe4c59e979e6c9b0d746bb1c28f1.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="119787" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/DFDSaFDa.jpg.be5abe4c59e979e6c9b0d746bb1c28f1.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


You take hold of your flashlight, for some form of protection? You briefly consider hiding behind the curtain, but then you realize your aunt would be able to see you there. You end up deciding to hide under the bed, seeing as she'll just assume you're sleeping if you do so.


Your bed is only just a inflatable mattress, so it's a bit hard to sneak under it, but you hope that it'll cover you enough.


The door opens. Light, and a hand with a bowl, comes out from it.


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/fdafsdf.jpg.8f82f0082ec74c08762b149a740862d7.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="119786" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/fdafsdf.jpg.8f82f0082ec74c08762b149a740862d7.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>

You don't budge from your hiding area as the hand laid the bowl down. You watch. It pushed it further into your room. She briefly looks around your room.


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/dsafsdfsd.jpg.d5b4ab3bb640d8f1a3023d2a33db705a.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="120000" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/dsafsdfsd.jpg.d5b4ab3bb640d8f1a3023d2a33db705a.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


Before leaving.


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/fedafsad.jpg.6d401c855385a453648557fd2475fdde.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="120002" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/fedafsad.jpg.6d401c855385a453648557fd2475fdde.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


And locks the door.


After waiting for a few minutes to make sure that she's really not there, you begin crawling out from under your bed. It was a bit difficult, with your only hand holding grasp the flashlight, but you've managed to free yourself from the grasps of the weight of your mattresses and blankets combined.


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/dsafsfds.jpg.d0edb4e87a6d8d2b66e086f74a7f2666.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="120008" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/dsafsfds.jpg.d0edb4e87a6d8d2b66e086f74a7f2666.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


You look into the bowl.


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/fedafsad.jpg.374735dbe337d22cfd2919311ba9e324.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="120004" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_04/fedafsad.jpg.374735dbe337d22cfd2919311ba9e324.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


It's surprisingly luxurious. It's some redfish, probably fresh from the new year's gathering of bright red fish, and a couple of iron ingots, along with bits of gold, which you've had dust of only on very, very special occasions, like the Queen's birthday.

You put down your flashlight to your side. There are multiple fishes in the bowl, which while you were tempted to grab and eat all of them, you resisted it, eating only half of a single one. You also, out of your own will, take a tiny bite of the ingot, which slightly textured though smooth surface felt nice and cool to your fingertips. Your teeth is able to bite through the bit quite easily, like butter (whatever that is.) You decide both of these objects are far too luxurious for you.
