EVE'S HEART

A dark veil slips over you, obscuring your vision; it’s cool and clinging, and blocks out all outside sensation. You drift downward . . . as you do, you grow more and more aware of the pulse of your own heartbeat, until it’s a ringing, unpleasant throb in your ears.

. . . after some time, it’s interrupted by a soft splash, and you feel solid rock underfoot.

Hi!

"Come to see little ol' me?"

Yeah. [trying to look out to the ocean and wincing a bit] How come it's so bright here?

"I'm just that dazzling, of course ♥"

Yeah, but you're pretty easy to look at usually.

"Are you saying I'm easy on the eye, good sir? How bold!"

[you are perhaps giving him too much credit]

Huh?

"So familiar and yet so far off the mark . . . have you never heard of flirting?"

Um... I guess so...

Your notepad beeps.

There's a message from Star: "Say something that's true and something that's a lie. It's kind of important."

[reads it?]

... I don't know how to flirt. [goooooes red] I have had lots of sex.

"Handsome as you are, I'm going to assume you want to make an exchange and are not actually coming on to me!"

She hands you two of the black-and-white roses.

[t-takes them]

Okay... W-why did I just do that?

Edited 2014-02-16 01:46 (UTC)

"That's how it's played. A truth for a truth, a lie for a lie, or a game to stay."

The first rose gives you one of Eve's memories: going through the halls of a university, sitting in a class, reading through textbooks -- and knowing that this is a cover, that her actual reason for being here is to look for clues to the rumors of illicit, unregistered blood donations being made. Being a detective, in other words.

...the second rose gives you a memory of Eve dressed in very scanty clothing in what's really obviously a high-class brother...it doesn't have her thoughts or emotions like the first, though.

[how about he just never stops blushing ever...]

I... g-game?

"If you can find where these lies go, you'll see the truth of this place."

[blinks]

Do they really have to go anywhere?

"Well, they go, or you go."

Oh... [nods] Do you know where they go then?

"I do, but I'm not playing, am I?"

Can you give me hints then?

"The roses are the hints! Will you play or not?"

She taps her foot.

I'll play...

Then, take 'em.

She hands you the rest of the roses. None of them contain thoughts and feelings anymore, but

None of them contain Eve's thoughts and feelings anymore.

The first is Eve posing as a university student, which you already saw in more depth. The second is Eve performing in a market square, surrounded by children clapping in time with her. The third is Eve, in the bordel; the fourth is Eve serving as a maid in a fancy house; the fifth is her as a nurse, helping with patients; the sixth is her seated across from a customer passing her hands over a crystal ball, clearly fortunetelling; the seventh is . . . standing in the Ring after an Aather game.

[frowns at them]

... They feel empty...
