Who: Jasmine, Lily, Winter [open]
What: Night of Darkness
Where: Tsukuyomi residence, outside in the city
When: June 11th

It had been an experience hurrying home in blackness. Coming home from that meeting had been... an experience. They'd managed to avoid any major traffic jams as a result of the experience, but by the time they'd gotten home, Jasmine herself was on edge.

Professor Tsukuyomi was absent again, due to work. That hadn't stopped him from sending multiple texts to Jasmine's cellphone, asking if they made it home okay. Lily had likely gotten them too. Hell, Jasmine wouldn't be surprised if Winter hadn't received a couple from him. But once they were in the house, they found it too had no power... leaving them alone in a black, darkened house, full of artifacts that looked particularly terrifying when catching the light of the moon.

And that's when it hit Jasmine. An echo. A memory.

She stood there, frozen in place, eyes wide and her arms and hands shaking. She... Dark Precure was standing in a room, next to a man in a mask, as they spoke to a group of people. Jasmine remembered them from another pulse she'd gotten earlier in the night, which caused her to reflect back to that...

A young man... sitting in the darkness, speaking to her and this man called Sabaaku... he was on a screen covered with static and marred by interference. It had been disorienting before, and in this light...

That man's whole demeanor. The way he'd been masked on the video screen. His voice. It spoke of a malevolence hidden behind... behind something innocuous. Jasmine suddenly felt very self conscious, and after lighting a candle, tried to figure out where her sister and Winter had gotten off to.

And as she did... she heard voices.

Are you aiming... to become the commander...?

A distorted sound of someone chuckling... someone... Dune?

The squishing noises made by that... that thing sitting on his shoulder... The voices of three people she'd known in her former life, saying seemingly random things, but in this context...

Jasmine bit his lower lip. Was her mind playing tricks on her?

"Lily...? Winter? Where the hell are you guys...?"

Another laugh.

----

Later into the night, it had become very apparent something was wrong. So, once Jasmine had determined Lily and Winter were alright, she'd headed off into the night to see if there was anything she could do.

She'd also started messaging Marina every five minutes, but that was neither here nor there. She needed to know her girlfriend was alright.

Of course, she was flying around, a somewhat demonic-looking figure in her own right, on a night that had people seeing and hearing things. That... that would have its issues.

[ooc: the first description is just for Lily and Winter, but the second one is free. Just have your character be anywhere and Jasmine can come upon you. :) I'm looking to try and thread with more people so I'm open to anything]

[The sudden blackout was quite a surprise to the Dians and it quickly aroused their curiosity. As soon as they were sure Rakka was safe and sounds in the house, they raced off to get a better look at whatever was going on.

At some point or another, as they hurried down the streets, Miria couldn't help but notice that demonic shadow in the dark night.]

Hey Isaac, does that person over there look familiar?

[Isaac glances in the direction Miria gestured to.]

Now that you mention it...

[Jasmine noticed them too... that was the Dians. She smiled in relief... these were two people she didn't want to see hurt]

Hey! You two...! Are you alright...?

[Their befuddled stares quickly shift into bright grins.]

Why look Miria, its Jasmine!

We're fine! Yourself?

... I wish I could say I was, but...

[she sighed]

Look, there's been a lot of freaky stuff going on tonight... has anything happened to you?

[They pause to consider.]

Have we mentioned that we're immortal now?

That's kinda new.

[She meant tonight guys.]

[okay, that derails Jasmine's thought process for more than a little bit]

I'm sorry, what?!

Our wounds heal and stuff!

And a general lack of dying!

. . . . . .

[that's all you get, Dians. This expression, forever. And Jasmine just. Standing there.]

You alright buddy?

You got kinda quiet.

... I just... how did you ever manage that? You didn't just mix a bunch of soft drinks together and decide you were immortal, did you?

No, we got crushed by a giant snake.

[Miria says this about as casually as one might mention picking up popsicles at the grocery store.]

... You mean the wise snake, or some different giant snake?

[she's just... bewildered at this point]

One of the other ones.

I think it was around the same time though.

... You've been immortal since MARCH?!

...Well, that was when we first noticed I guess.

In retrospect, it could have been going on for quite a while.

I... I don't have any idea what to say to that...!

...

L-Look, you guys may be immortal, but you live with someone, right? You gotta take as much care of her as you would yourselves if you could, erm... die...

Of course!

We would never shirk our duties to Rakka!

Alright then!

... Where is she right now...?

Back at the shop!

Hopefully tucked in bed.

Watching from the window is fine too though.

... Mmm, with the way things are now, somebody should go check on her. You okay if I go do that?

We'd really appreciate it!

You can trust her on her own, but it'd be nice to know she's still safe!

Yeah, it's just... this situation I don't trust. But alright. I'll be seeing you!

[with a wave, she moves to fly off towards the Dians']
