Broken Fourth Wall

[Cifero Windtail]

Cifero, inside the protective barrier, panted heavily, blood pourding out from wounds on his arms, legs, and chest. Glancing down, he noticed the gem on the pommel of his knife glowing. "...Oh," he said, chuckling. "Guess it's time to..." Suddenly, he dropped to the ground and started glowing, his body enveloped in a bright flash of pink light. When it faded, Daisy lay in the place where the crat's knife had been, dressed in his clothes and looking a bit confused. "What the heck?" she said, standing up and rubbing the back of her head. Glancing around, she saw Anna, then blinked. "... Am I supposed to fight you?" she asked.




Ardys was asleep as well.




Viola shrugged. "Just saying it?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray, Jayce, Ronnie, Valentine, and a slime-like humanoid shape sat in lawn chairs across from Anna and Daisy, watching intensely and eating popcorn. After a few moments, Ray spoke to the slime-creature. "We really need a name for yo-owch!" Ronnie's paw retracted from behind Ray's head, as Jayce spoke. "Shush, I wanna watch this."

[Tim Siguire]

Kira stood in position and swung her leg at Lia with all her strength.
A loud clap could be heard and Lia lost her breath, getting sent over the now Daisy and Anna.

[Ara Av-Toa]

Fayam said nothing, instead thought a lot. After a while he spoke: "Um, well, I guess it's not that much of a problem in the end... can we continue now?"


Anna saw Daisy appear, and that made her rage subside. Her eyes turned blue and her rage turned into fear and worry. She buried her face in her hands saying: "Oh dear, what have I done?" She nearly started to cry.

[Cifero Windtail]

Viola nodded. "Yes. Yes we can," she replied, tossing Fayam the frisbee.


Sybil blinked and looked back down the hallway. "Is he following you?" she asked.




Daisy, blushing slightly, walked over and hugged Anna. "Hey, it's alright," she said. "You haven't killed anyone."

[Tim Siguire]

Tim awoke and walked towards the little sandy lake.


 Kira fastened her robe and pants before walking over to Lia, glancing at Daisy, and helping her up.
"My sincerest Apologies, Lia. I appeared to have gotten upset."


Lia simply accepted her help and stood up. "Nice kick. I wasn't expecting that. I tend to cuddle pretty... strongly."

[Cifero Windtail]

Viola suddenly blinked and looked from side to side. "Wh.... Michen, what's going o..."




Sybil suddenly replaced Viola. "Not happening, weirdo," she said to the person behind the typing. "Come on... follow me." Carefully, Sybil started to move back down the hall, keeping close to the wall.




Ardys remained sleeping. For now.

[Ara Av-Toa]

Fayam caught the frisbee and looked at Michen and Sybil running up to Viola. As they moved away again, he scratched behind his head and asked: "Uh, what is going on here?"


Anna, still with Daisy, was speechless. She dropped down to her knees and started crying. "I... I'm so sorry... I got... I got a split personality. It only allows me to choose between two extremes... It's... like a curse that forces me... to live with that fate... I... wish... I... hadn't..."

[Ara Av-Toa]

that explains, signalled back.


Fayam read the message. "Um, well, mistakes are human..." he said, tossing the frisbee.


At this point a screen depicting a human face appeared in front of Anna. "Oh. Well, it's not your fault. It's mine." At this point Anna realised the face was her creator's, and she switched. "Why have you done this to me?" she raged.

[Cifero Windtail]

Sybil cursed internally, then decided to quickly try diplomacy, turning around. "Only if you promise not to shoot!" she yelled back, disguising her voice.


Viola caught the frisbee with ease and shrugged. "Yeah, that'll happen at times," she said, grinning widely.




Daisy, being careful to stay within the protective shield, looked sympathetically at Anna. "Well, sometimes, you get stuck being a certain way because your creator comes up with an idea," she said. "However, sometimes it will change. I wasn't always linked to Cifero."

[Ara Av-Toa]

Fayam stayed cool. he said: "Wel,l someone once told me: 'To err is human but to really foul things up requires a computer.' Oh. Wait..." He facepalmed himself.


Anna still raged to the screen. "Hold on there you floating badass, you need some punishment!" Her creator calmly responded: "There's nothing you can do. I'll see whether I'll do something about your situation." Anna ground her teeth.

[Cifero Windtail]

Sybil blinked, relaxing a bit now that the gun was lowered but remaining on edge all the same. "Why don't we all have a nice talk about that?" she asked, holding her hands out in a "easy now" gesture.




Daisy shrugged. "Sometimes there's not much to be done about this sort of thing," she said, stretching a little. Glancing down, the wolf blushed darkly as she realized she was in Cifero's clothes. "Um... Could I have a change of wardrobe, please? Maybe something that actually fits my hips?" All of a sudden, a changing tent materialized around Daisy, then disappeared five seconds later. The celestial wolf was now clad in a pair of high-waisted jeans that were more her size and a light grey tank top. "Thank you," she said, giving the sky a thumbs-up.

[Ara Av-Toa]

Anna didn't really pay attention to Daisy. Instead she merely focused on the screen. "Come here and I'll show you!" The face sighed. "I can't Anna. You are digital, I'm not. But anyway lemme have a look." Anna's creator shifted his gaze down, typing something on his keyboard.

[Cifero Windtail]

Daisy ran a hand through her short pink hair and looked up at the creator. "Would you like some help with that?" she asked.




Sybil shrugged. "He was scared to come down here, and I'm his friend, I suppose," she said. "It was only polite to do so."

[Ara Av-Toa]

Anna's creator looked up. "Uh, what? I mean, any help would be welcome but she IS my character. I'm not sure what you can do," he said, then turned to his keyboard again.


Fayam jumped up and down to Viola. "C'mon, throw that frisbee!" He was all worked up.
