Train to the After Life
tickets please


maybe you know how, maybe you don't. perhaps the memory is fuzzy, or perhaps it's crystal clear down to the look in your comrades' eyes. maybe it was your time; you've done all you wanted to. or maybe you weren't at all ready to go, maybe you went out kicking and screaming -- but none of it matters. you know you're dead, and the train is taking you to an afterlife. perhaps an afterlife of your choice; you might've earned that heaven. or perhaps you've earned something else entirely.

it'll be a bit of a journey, though, so you might as well take your time and talk to the other people in your coach. death knows no place: most of them are strangers, even from faraway worlds. but death knows no time either, so who knows, some of them may be people you know, even if last you knew, they were alive -- or long gone.

oh look, here comes the snack cart.


» POST with your character
» said character is now DEAD for whatever reason -- canon, au, what have you. they are on a train with other dead people from many other times, places, and worlds.
» characters don't know for a fact where they're headed -- just a general awareness that they're going to some kind of AFTERLIFE. whatever they think it is is up to the player.
» have FUN & TAG AROUND

TRIGGER WARNING!!
this meme obviously deals with death and may deal with other unpleasant themes as a result. please be cautious.

[ He'd been sitting by the window, watching endless scenery pass on the other side of the transparisteel. Time hadn't seemed to pass, but there was a calm in the silence he hadn't felt in a long, long time. It hadn't made much sense that he would appear as he did in his youth. He'd redeemed himself, in the end, but it hadn't felt that way.

Her voice makes everything stop. A lump forms in his throat and he's afraid to turn and face her. Afraid of the look on her face or what she'd think of him. He can't avoid her for long, standing up and looking at her.

She's as beautiful as he'd always remembered. ]
