DAY 60, B/E/ANUBIS/PINK GROUP CALL
[ Sometime in the dead of night a few hours after the game, when all call participants are alone and in their dorms, they receive a series of messages from a display name with no number or email attached:
When they pick up, Mukuro’s face appears, beaming. The general angle and slight instability to the picture make it easy to tell he’s pointing his own phone at himself; it seems like he’s completely alone, wherever he is.
“Wherever he is” appears to be the courtyard of an old-style Japanese home, though it’s a bit disorienting to look at. Part of an old wisteria archway is in the shot behind him, but it seems to be, at once, heavily damaged, singed black in places and partly broken down; yet also perfectly whole and in full bloom even out of season; yet also completely chopped down and cleared away. The paper screens as well appear as two different styles simultaneously, the visuals of the two overlapping on top of each other; a worn but well-cared for framework in a darker color of wood and thicker screens, or a more modern-looking, cheaper framework holding paper with a machine-generated uniformity to its texture, or the first style again but with blood and rips and burns smashed and spattered all across it.
It’s probably easier to just look at Mukuro. He gives a cheery wave, with his marbled green nails. ]
Yaho~!

I got that wish a lonnnnng time ago.

Say. I know at least one of our past idols remembered being dead. Would he just go back to being dead if he took Heaven's bargain? Would Hell's bargain be the only way for him to have lived?

So, you spoke briefly of Exael...what's your opinion of her and her boss? Do you two have to work together as hosts or are you completely separated?

I suppose I don't need to ask more on that. Ah, let me move on... People had so many questions for you...
[think brain think newwww topic]
What's the most important thing you learned about heaven and hell when you were an idol?

[INTERNAL SCREAM AT THE THOUGHT]
What were the different programs? Ah, and I'd like both sorts of information if you please. It'd be interesting to hear how that progressed as you saw more.

No one around here knew the first thing about "Heaven" or "Hell," so I didn't even know the words until I got my offer. You guys are pretty lucky Exael was so generous.
no subject
Ah...you were able to choose different shows too? You really are about that freedom life.
[welp dont wanna turn this into an exael thing so lets veer away]
Whose idea was the amnesia thing? What do you think they hoped amnesia would accomplish? Just a new gimmick?
no subject
I'll draw it out for you.
Originally, your show, or my show, just tested single idols at a time. Maybe sometimes two or three in the same place, if I were to guess. They didn't take them anywhere. They just manipulated the circumstances in their original lives to screw them over. Then, whenever they decided that an idol had been pushed enough to make a choice, they gave them an offer.
After that, I got my wish. There was nothing else here for me once that was done with, so I just went off with danna for that Hellsworn show and started down that path. By that point I was already like this, a vengeful ghost, so moving settings wasn't any sort of issue for me.
Your round is different. Now, there are enough worlds on the table that they decided to recruit representatives from various worlds and place them all in one program to expedite the process. I don't know who decided on the amnesia stuff or why, and I don't really care enough to ask.
Do you understand?
no subject
Ah, I was going to ask what a work day for you is like. But with so much freedom you must spend a lot more time living the life you want rather than working. It seems like a nice deal.
