[Mostly Open] So we'll press, and press 'til you can't take it anymore!

[groupiedrifter]

CHARACTERS: Precursors and you. And Eventually Newton. Hopefully!
LOCATION: A holding room in Ximilia Station.
DATE: Est. two days post-mission, after the kaiju is defeated and the orb is retrieved.
CONTENT: The precursors are revealed — and are finally removed from Newt's mind.
WARNINGS: Possession and the bodily autonomy issues that come with that. More will be added if necessary!

Closed and opened starters will be added as I go, which will be announced on plurk! But if you don't use plurk or would rather keep an eye out by email/tracking, feel free to use the tracking option and mark to receive notifs any new top level comments posted to this log! The log will involve an open starter to visit the precursors where they're cuffed/contained in the room, so stay tuned.

Also no rush once the open starters are posted!

Feel free to focus on the player plot log first and come back to this later.

DARKLING'S TOP LEVEL | WHILE NEWT WAS SLEEPING...
OPEN STARTER | THE PRECURSORS, REVEALED
CLOSED FINAL CONCLUSION | THE PRECURSORS, REMOVED

[ Yzak's never been particularly squeamish about blood - he'd be a pretty bad soldier if he were. Needles he's likewise not bothered by - especially since as of late, thanks to Blue, he's had to see a lot more of them at work. But when the fresh blood flecks onto his face, he still instinctively flinches from it, shutting his eyes.

He lets out a low noise of disgust, but those eyes flutter back open to fix on "Newton" once again. If he were as twisted as the Precursors, he'd grin back at them, but as it stands he's not. And he can't find any sick pleasure in this, so his expression remains firm and incensed. ]

Keep laughing.

You won't be for long.

[ He worries for the abnormal way the monsters twist Newton's body with the action; it's truly like something out of some freaky horror movie. But at his core, Yzak knows that they wouldn't destroy his body as it would mean they've failed completely.

So he wipes at his face with the back of his hand, more just smearing the blood than cleanly wiping it off, and turns to take a few steps toward the door. ]

I'll get the doctor back in here shortly to reinsert that.

... and I'll make sure to note that you'll require even more restraints so you can't do that again, nice as it is to see you devolving into a desperate, tantrum-throwing child.

[They watch Yzak go with a little smile, the round, red splotches on one cheek an unpleasant contrast to the pale skin and bright walls of the room.

... But the smile does fade when Yzak is gone.

Fades into something a little less sure.

For once.]
