sixth game ◦ 15 | accidental video

[chestboard]

[The video feed clicks on and what can be seen is a crowd of witches, all standing together and talking amongst themselves. Off to the side, there are the furniture of course- the servants that directly listen to the witches of the senate. Lambda and Bern are there, Erika is also talking with them, and Dlanor and her two other assistants are in the parlor- waiting for Battler to appear and begin.

However... they were all staring at something- or rather, someone. They stared at the woman in the dress, the one that looked and sounded exactly like the Beatrice they had known from so long ago. When she spoke though, it was calm and polite, nothing like her usual teasing that everyone was used to. They asked her who she was, and she merely looked at them with a puzzled expression.]

....Am I somehow different.... from the Beatrice everyone was expecting?

What........ are you talking about?

Wait a second- don't tell me you have amnesia or something....?


I... I was only just born recently, so I have no memories at all... H, however, I will study hard... in order to become the Beatrice you all expect-

Beato.... I thought I told you to stay in your room.

[Battler's voice came out of no where, it was cold, Beato looked as though she were a young girl being scolded. Battler then appeared with a swirl of butterflies. His dignified appearance was fitting for the ruler of this game.]

...Go back to your room. You aren't supposed to be here.

I... I just wanted to help you however I could- Father...

Go. To your room. [the young woman hung her head, and just as she was about to leave-] Also.....

Y, yes? What is it Father?

....My name is Battler. ...Never call me by another name again.

[Beato nodded meekly, and she then disappeared as well. The other witches asked if this was some elaborate ruse, but no- he wanted them to forget what they had just seen, it wasn't some plan of his. In any case, he told them the 6th game was called 'Dawn' and they said it was a fitting title. The 6th game was now beginning.]

((ooc: Battler is in his regular font, Lambda is pink, Erika is blue, and Beato is orange.))

[ She told you so. :T But uh, Yuri hesitates to respond for a little while. Last time she knew that this had happened, it was the biggest pissfit Battler had ever gotten into. Still. ]

Guessing it didn't work out.

[he's sitting in another room than the parlor, obviously taking a break from this game.]

.........Of course it didn't. I was foolish to think otherwise.

You were trying to do the right thing. Even if it didn't work out that's not that foolish.

[material_guy]

Fa... ther?

[Video]

[chestboard]

.....Yeah, father. It's because I 'created' her in a sense.

Listen. I know it's hard to be too into somethin' you make yourself unless yer some kinda narcissist, but she's still a girl. You gotta be a little more delicate with her...

... Daddy.

[ifbymyhands]

...What.

[chestboard]

I revived Beato.... but she's like.... she's nothing like she was before.

[ifbymyhands]

It's like she's a completely new person. Why does she think she's your kid?

[ .. y.. eah.. Ange is not planning on coming anywhere near that at the moment. Things are tense already, and even though she thought they were about to get better between the two of them she's pretty sure Battler won't be very happy with this.. so she won't risk it. Instead she just contacts him like this while she's sitting somewhere else. ]

.. Sorry, onii-chan. [ even if she was sort of 8| about reviving that witch to begin with. ]

[ video ]

[chestboard]

[oh goodie- they would probably have gotten into yet another fight if they were near each other.]

Heh... and just why are you sorry? I listened to what people had to say- they told me it wouldn't work, but even so I tried. And for what? For some empty shell that can only call me Father?

How ridiculous...

[ video ]

[denies]

[ She can at least make that judgement decently enough, okay. ]

I'm saying 'sorry' since you're disappointed, right? Disappointed that it didn't turn out the way you wanted it to.

[makewayforroze]

It's the same one?

[chestboard]

It.... it's supposed to be.

[makewayforroze]

What happened to the real her?

handwritten.

[pawful]

[ Bernkastel's also somewhere else — but when has she ever been one to stay still, when a knife needs twisting? ]

Better luck next time.

handwritten.

[chestboard]

[good thing this is handwritten, he would so be yelling at her right about now.]

Shut the hell up- who even asked you? I thought I told you to forget what you had seen.

handwritten.

[pawful]

[ that's the reason why she chose to write this — she thinks ahead! ]

Sure, I'll forget it — if it really isn't anything of importance.

[soulfist]

...Since when did you become a family man?

[ video ]

[chestboard]

I'm not.

[video]

[fans_fire]

...You have a daughter?

Re: [video]

[chestboard]

I don't.... that's.... I suppose the best way to describe it would be to say I created her using magic.

Perhaps some would considerit lucky...to have someonewho wishes to

be with you always,

to follow you blindly.

[oh boy....what a thing to say to him right now.]

Well, I'm not one of those people.
