Pavo Heart Game: Noctua's Grand Adventure
When you enter the light, you find yourself hovering weightless in a void, as if caught in a moment of falling inertia. In the distance, you hear a voice that seems to shift and twist, familiar and yet unfamiliar.
"You shouldn't be here. But since you already are, let's make a wager. If you can uncover the truth, you'll find me. If you can't, you may be hopelessly lost... What a shame that would be."
You begin falling, and your vision blacks out--
[OOC NOTE: your goals are "reveal the truth" to "find the true heart". All images in toplevels are for general inspo, please make sure you read the flavourtext cause things are not exactly as they are in the images.]

Re: DARKNESS
he has to be sick.]
Re: DARKNESS
...Did something just twitch?]
Re: DARKNESS
his head whips around to try and focus on the movement.]
Re: DARKNESS
You can tell cause it's still twitching. The fingers clench, so hard you can hear the leather of his gloves creak, and then... he staggers to his feet. Which is probably hard to do when you have several holes going all the way through your body!]
Re: DARKNESS
SO MUCH
BACKS UP A LIL]
Re: DARKNESS
[The rage is palpable. His voice cracks, hoarse, as if he's been screaming for some time. But it's your voice. Your furious crimson eyes. And your hand reaching for the greatsword on the ground.]
Re: DARKNESS
[but he's not dropping his own blade.]
Re: DARKNESS
[He lifts the sword. Takes stance. And comes at you with a powerful swing.]
Re: DARKNESS
he brings up the blade in a last moment block]
Damnit! Can't you tell this is what he wants?
Re: DARKNESS
[There is an incredible force in his blow, but you'd be expecting that. It's yours, after all. And your strength that blocks it. But your clone seems pretty determined to murder you.]
Re: DARKNESS
[kicks his clone in the stomach. the greater weight of clone-Diluc's weapon is gonna be an issue, but he'll have to manage.]
You fucking idiot! I will not kill Pavo.
Re: DARKNESS
That's what you think. When it comes down it, "Noctua" sure has a temper.
[And then he charges again, nothing but pain and fury on his face. You know instinctively, even though you've never seen it from the outside, but it's the same sort of expression you made that night.]
Re: DARKNESS
I will not! No matter what he tells me! No matter what he does!
Re: DARKNESS
But can you cut yourself down, this way?]
Re: DARKNESS
what he does is kick him down, then stab Aquila Favonius through his clone's hands. he knows he has enough determination to get out of that, but he's hoping to be gone by then.]
No more. We won't kill each other. Remember that.
Re: DARKNESS
He just starts laughing. Bitterly, painfully, a hundred horrible emotions spilling out into laughter that sounds like sobs and echoes with the screams of the dead and dying.
Your vison goes black, but you can still hear it. It tears at you like something alive, but then...
Then you wake up.]
