That long black train


THE TRAIN TO THE AFTERLIFE

Congratulations! your character is dead — for whatever reason, whether it be canon, au, what have you. it'll be a bit of a journey to the afterlife, though, so your character might as well talk to the other people. 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 familiar people, whether recently deceased or long so. maybe your character know how they died, maybe they don't. perhaps the memory is fuzzy, or perhaps it's crystal clear. maybe it was simply their time or maybe they weren't at all ready to go, but none of it matters. your character knows they're dead and the train is taking them to an afterlife.

oh look — here comes the snack cart.



>> POST your character.
>> TAG others.
>> HAVE FUN.
>> DO NOT SUPLEX THE TRAIN (unless you're Sabin)

A pouch appears in the seat next to Xue Yang. A very familiar pouch. It wiggles as if it contains something, the strings around the neck preventing whatever (whoever) is inside from escaping.

[For being dead, Rihan is oddly accepting of it. Some arrivals cried and begged. Others stared into nothingness in pure disbelief. He had been a passenger for long enough to see several reactions and to see people in several states.

It is evident that his passing wasn't a peaceful one. Not with the wound that went through his back and all the way out his chest. Still he kept a smile on his lips and a cheerful tone to his voice.]


Hello. Mind if I join you?

[He did not even wait for an answer from the other man before sitting down, giving a smile, even if he sure of that it could not be seen.]

[ Summary. Funny enough, Ayame is friends with the boss of the afterlife in her verse and her mom is a psychopomp, and they're all working to create a cosmic train network for safer interdimensional travel, including afterlives! Can definitely play that if you want, or just go with the meme's premise where your character meets Ayame on the train when it's finally her time. Most of her loved ones have already passed away and are waiting for her, so your character can be invited to the welcoming party! ]

Yeah, well... me, too.

(abandoned on a beach with nowhere to go, higgs wonders if he was meant to stay there and repent. generate some regret or some such bullshit for what he'd brought about. fragile's farewell to him wasn't so inspiring; all it did was give him the courage to let go finally. experience one more hurt before nothing at all. but how much longer does he have to sit here waiting for that?

perhaps this is the train to hell. perhaps it is hell and they'll never get off.

Death was supposed to be the end of it all. Full stop. So, why are we still moving forward?

Not like there was a rulebook on what actually happened between life and death, and life eternal. Copia sees another, and speaks probably too casually, considering the situation they found themselves in. ]

Having sung for what felt as if an eternity. Until her last song was cast, and her last breath was made. Her time had finally come, now gone and spent. This mean't only one thing, that the Beast had merged each plane within the cosmos into one. In order to reign domain over all. Having taken then, all portfolios upon himself.

Ultimately, becoming either Ao or stronger than they.

In the end, as Caoimhe sat there conflicted over everything. A question remained how she ended up here. In this strange place. With only the acknowledgement that she had died. ]
