WAKE UP TIME

WAKE UP TIME

[The first thing you feel when you wake up is...nothing.

You don't feel much different at all when you wake up, no doubt from a very pleasant sleep, even if you may not remember what you dreamed of. If anything, you would have thought it was another normal day.

That thought would have vanished the moment you took in your surroundings. This is not your bed, this is definitely not your bedroom, and well, this is definitely not your home. In fact, this place isn't anywhere you've been before.

Before you can question anything much further, your cell phone starts beeping, flashing a message on the screen for a good several minutes, before flashing your profile, also for a few minutes. Yes, now you have a Title, and a power, even if you've never had one before. And yes, you have a cell phone. Even if you didn't have one, and don't know what the hell a cell phone is. You get the feeling you'll need to keep it on you.

The profile fades back to the home page of your phone - don't worry, you can still access your profile, and everyone else's, on that little lime icon if you really want - even though you have so many questions now. (The help button may... attempt to be helpful in that case.) Where the hell are you? Why do you have a Title? And can you get out?

Perhaps, if you're strong enough. But, in any case.

Welcome, Titled.

There are fifteen strangers in this place.]

Right! From a Star Womb.

[ Her stare is hidden behind the glare of her glasses but if looks could talk... they'd say, "who the fuck named your everything". ]

[2/2]

[theirmagic]

W-well... that certainly is... a creative name for a magical device...

[classmated]

Not everyone from my world is the best at coming up with names, it's true.

[theirmagic]

No, they certainly seem like it.

[ Siiiigh. ]

There would be a lot less confusion if you two had simply brought up that it was magic from the start...

[classmated]

W-wait, you mean you thought— [ Oh. Oh. He turns a light pink and looks away. ] N-no, Torri and I haven't done anything like that...

[theirmagic]

... I'm afraid I did, yes. All of us did, I think. It was why we reacted that way.

[ A sigh as she shakes her head and places a hand on the bridge of her nose. ]

Your friend didn't exactly help matters much, admittedly... I'm afraid most of us aren't familiar with the things you are. In fact, I've never even heard the terms before today, and I know quite a lot about magic.

[classmated]

... I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. Classmating is arduous and afterward, Torri has to rest for a while. But it's all sanctioned by the church and it isn't...

It isn't like that.

[theirmagic]

Well... that's good, then. You had me very worried, you know.

[ You're still a player though and her opinion of you is still a little displeased but it's not as bad as it was, at least. ]

[classmated]

Haha, I can understand why. Torri is a very special person. It's hard not to want to watch out for her.

[theirmagic]

And you're both so young! You two should be out enjoying life, not being burdened by something like that. I'm really very relieved, but please try in the future not to do anything that might give people the wrong idea, all right?

[classmated]

Well... we enjoy life when we can, but this is an important age for us. Disciples can only use Star Energy between the ages of sixteen and eighteen. After that, we won't be able to fight monsters anymore. And when that happens...

[ The way he trails off says that's not a good thing. ]

I can at least promise to try and avoid misunderstandings. Is that good enough?

[theirmagic]

Well--yes, but... what happened to your home that this is so necessary, Wake?

[ She's worried! ]

[classmated]

The Dusk Circles happened.

[theirmagic]

I'm guessing they're not good. Something bad and magical?

[classmated]

Yeah. They're the reason there are monsters and nests in the world, and the only thing that can destroy them is Star Energy.
