[Welcome... to a weirdass place! Woah! Everywhere you look, you're surrounded by fields of flaming black lycoris noirges (higanbana) and weird rock formations and falling stone pillars. The skyline out in the distance appears to be mostly jagged-looking, beautiful crystals, and even further, more distant jagged mountains. The sky overhead is pitch black and clouded with twinkling stars and a large, bloody moon hanging down over everyone.
The flowers, when touched, leave a scorching and lingering burn without actually burning away your clothing or flesh, even if they don't appear to be visibly alight. Sometimes the wind kicks petals right up at you, wow, rude. The structures are climb-able! You can't really see much outside of a bloody ocean, though. Walking in any direction just nets you more of the same: more burning flowers, more strange pillars and rocks. The blood ocean is... bloody. Mmm tastee.]
(Please treat this as a FFA-style tag-in and tag at your leisure! Characters can explore the setting a bit, but they won't find anything particularly amiss beyond the obvious extremely bizarre things that are amiss just yet. At this point in the CYOA, if you've opted to have AU memories, they can start slowly trickling in in whatever way you find most fun to play with! Note that regardless of AU memories, characters will not recall that they need to get back to Heaven, even though they'll remember all of their Heavenly CR and experiences unless you'd like to rob those with a full Arpechele AU!)

Where...
[ What a world to show up in. The first thing she does is check for her things- and upon not finding them looks unsettled. If it's not there, there's no way to get it back now. She's immediately on high alert.
She's going to start climbing up one of the structures to see as much of the layout as possible. ]

[ Koharu is STANDING PERFECTLY STILL, looking around like a spooked chihuahua. ]
W- wait, I don't recognize any of this...

[ My brother in Christ I do not even know where to start with trying to guess where Marcoh's at mentally by Thursday. Maybe he's in full 'this may as well happen' mode. He just stares off at all of this and hmmmmmm that's not cool.
Takes advantage of the fact that he still has his heaven memories temporarily (?) to immediately kind of waft over to Koharu and Siffrin though once he sees them. He'd ask where they are but obviously none of them know jack shit. ]

[ Look at us. Hey. Look at us, who woulda thought? Us together in bullshit yet again. Not them.
Anyway, they just don't even know where to begin and offer a helpless shrug to him. ]

It's alright.
[It doesn't seem like she's going to fall.]
[It doesn't seem like she's going to fall.]
Koharu...?
[Haven't seen you in person for a while.]
[Haven't seen you in person for a while.]
It's not one of those again, is it?
[ Who would've thought!!! I haven't been on a double-CYOA since Heroes so this is a nice surprise. Not for Marcoh though, who kind of supposed it must be a possibility given last week's returnees, but this fucking sucks regardless. Hopefully he's feeling friendly enough by Thursday and I don't have to retcon this but he's holding a hand out for Sif to take if they want it. ]

[ Waves at him from the top of the pillar once she's up there... ]
Yeah. That's right.
[ It's one thing to see it happen, and it's different to experience it in person. ]
... I didn't think I'd see any of you this way.

Then what I was told is true.
...
Whatever that can possibly mean for us.
[ If it weren't for the idea of OOCly getting to carousel everyone, it would make the most sense for their cartoon villain to simply blow up people by making them go on nonstop CYOAs. ]

[ THINKING ABOUT THIS ]
I guess what the others said really was true...

It.. has to be, right?
[ It's the only thing that makes sense. It's okay, there's something a bit off with Siffrin anyway, hand briefly rubbing at their own throat. Weird. Confused, but it slips away and as soon as that hand holds out they opt to take it instead. No retcon, this is real. ]
..We'll take it one step at a time.

[ ENDLESS CYOAS
HELP ME. ]
We're just in two different places in Heaven. So it's probably not much of a reach to get us to go... wherever this is?
