[open dreamdive] no longer human

[thesettingsun]

WHO: You!
WHERE: Shuji's subconscious.
WHEN: August 18.
WHAT: Dreamdiving!
WARNINGS: Depends on how the dive goes, but a likely one is suicide.

[Maybe you weren't even in line of sight of Shuji. Just about everyone has a reason to be out and about on a Saruday afternoon, and nobody wants their day interrupted by the ground falling out from under them. Maybe you don't even instantly recognize that the library entrance you fall into would be part of Shuji's subconscious and not anybody else's.

This is how things ended up for you today, unfortunately. Might as well take a look around and see if you can't spot the man himself.

Locations are in top-levels added as divers enter them.]

[ a-aww!!

this is cute and warm but also uncomfortable, made especially awkward with the mista representation near. after a few moments in which realization finally hits, john carefully replaces that. schooling his expression, he turns back to the man in question, ]

You got any tips before I take off, Mista? [ since heart!john seemed useful... ]

[thesettingsun]

Whatcha lookin' for? I might know where it is.

[vitis]

Well...

[ to be fair, he thought the library might be a promising plan, but he supposes it couldn't hurt to ask if it would save him any trouble, ]

A book with Shuji's name on it.

[thesettingsun]

Check Dazai's office.

[On the name 'Dazai', Mista's expression gets colder. John, of all people, should know why.]

It's definitely not in the library, I'll tell you that.

[vitis]

Dazai...?

[ his eyes widen. similarly, that makes him feel cold. ]

He has his own office? [ where? ]

[thesettingsun]

Past the dining room in the back of the library.

...I'd love to tell you to punch him in his stupid face, but the asshole's still part of Shu, so you probably shouldn't.

[vitis]

... Thanks for the heads-up.

[ because honestly, the next question was going to involve murder? because that's just where his brain jumped to: an extreme. no murder, no punching, so he'll have to be-- gentle. he waves goodbye to mista. ]

See you, then.

[ john's's off to dazai's office, then! and whether or not his powers work here, he'll be planting a seed into his neck on the way there. ]

[thesettingsun]

[The dining room is easy enough to find, but it has two doors in it: one that's badly damaged, and one that looks fine.

Which one does John take?]

[vitis]

[ let's try that badly damaged one ]

[thesettingsun]

[Doesn't look like an office.]
