[RAVEN'S HEART GAME - SESSION FOUR]

The first thing you hear is the sound of rain faintly hitting the exterior of the house. The soft pitter-patter is almost soothing, in a way, but it’s quickly followed up by rumbling thunder in the distance. You open your eyes, and for a second all you see is a flash of light--at first it seems like it’s lightning, but then you see something. A vision of a man dressed in rags, hunched over, waves of demonic power rolling over him. He howls, and something terrible starts to grow out of him: the bloody roots of a massive tree. An immense wave of panic hits you, and you can’t move, you can’t speak, you can’t breathe--
And then it’s over. It’s over. You’re fine.
The sound of rain returns. (This time it’s definitely soothing, compared to what you just saw.) You’re standing in the foyer of a mansion, a wide open living room in front of you. The door behind you is faintly ajar, leading outside.

Re: DOOR TWO - ★ZRAEL
Sabre’s collage is mostly filled with pictures of her sitting or sleeping on Raven’s feet, from his perspective. She’s grinning in a lot of them, showing fangs. One of the pictures moves, and it depicts a short scene of her handing Raven a dagger. Another shows him falling over onto the floor as he fails to carry her piggyback-style, and she sits on him.
Sabre's poem.
Doodle’s collage has a bunch of pictures of him making big goofy smiles while Raven’s hand is in his hair, petting him. There’s also a leather collar and leash among the pictures, for some reason, as well as a blindfold. Finally, there’s also a book on Zoroastrian mythology, with a few pages bookmarked.
Doodle's poem.
Aradia’s collage is filled with pictures of her reading or preparing tea and sweets. There’s a few pictures from the perspective of someone with their head in her lap, looking up at her. In addition to pictures, there’s also several book covers and framed passages from books--20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Treasure Island, Around the World in Eighty Days, and other adventure novels.
Aradia's poem.
Lance's collage is a tad smaller than the others, but the pictures it shows are very tender. Many of them, like Aradia’s, show Raven’s perspective from laying with his head in Lance’s lap, or on his shoulder. There’s a close-up of his newly-obtained horns, and several more pictures of Lance smiling.
Lance's poem.
Requiem’s collage is filled with pictures of her floating with her guitar, and a few of the pictures move and play faint strands of her music as you approach. You can definitely hear the lyrics, “You look so cute~ floating in your boat~ I wanna suck out your eyeballs~ and rip out your throat~”
Requiem's poem.
Glory’s collage is easily the biggest out of all the collages; there are numerous pictures of her, many of which show her smiling in a way that feels secretive, private, especially since most of these look like they took place in her room. Some of them are a tad risque, and some of them are intimate in a different way--pictures of her brushing her hair while she’s getting dressed, or pictures of her holding Raven’s hand in her own.
Glory's poem.
Man Eater’s collage of pictures are almost all nude pictures, though clearly casual. Pictures of him at the onsen, pictures of him lounging in his bed--very few are explicitly sexual. (Though there are some.) There’s also a lot of close-ups of his face and especially his mouth, focused on his sharp set of teeth. Curiously, there’s one of him in a school uniform, standing outside what looks like a Japanese high school?
Man Eater's poem.
Wataru’s collage hangs above the bathtub in midair. As you approach, immediately you’re sprayed with glitter, and faintly you can hear someone say, “☆ Amazing~ ☆” in the background. The pictures are all moving, showing Wataru walking backwards on his elbows, or dancing, or his hair doing weird things. For some reason, there’s also a fire extinguisher, but the valve is broken.
Wataru's poem.
This last collage is simple: just a few still portraits of a girl, ☆Zrael’s princess from the last Princess Maker game, Annabel friti Maria Reverie Still☆Water etc.
Annabel's poem.
Re: DOOR TWO - ★ZRAEL
[ she's glad that he's doing so well with his team. that's... kind of the dream in a place like this. she smiles, if but for a second, and then it fades away as he expression turns neutral; lips twitching as she fights off a frown. feelings bubble up inside her, but she forces a lid on them and buries them deeper. ]
[ she's forgotten what it's like to be a part of a team... ]
[ with the dagger slotted into the wall she turns to leave. ]
[ time to head into door number 3. ]
