	"I trust you," she murmured. "We have time, anyway. We don't need to plan each detail right now." At the sight of the baseball bat, she couldn't hold back a smile. He always ended up with this weapon. It was like fate. Anjune methodically sat next to her gasoline, coating her blade with terrifying precision. She was prepared for anything. [Read more]

	"Shall we... prepare?" She put her crown on, smirking at him a d lifting her sword. Flipping her blue hair over her shoulders she cracked her neck. Anjune stood, gazing out into the dark alley, counting down the timer over her head. [Read more]

	"And when have I ever let you down, my love?" She used the term flippantly, a satisfied smile on her face. "Thank you." She was quiet, following his gaze to the timer counting down. [Read more]

	"What do you mean?" She shrugged. "I want to solve to mystery of why we come back, and if it's because of an objective we're supposed to complete... well, I'd complete it. Fix the future. I don't know. The quest is interesting when you know each death won't be your last..." [Read more]

	"Of course. How else do you think I got dice to roll this?" She tilted her head to the side. "We're better off as allies, especially if I'm doing the tower. You'll either help me, or I'll find a hyper crystal and teleport to you instead of dying." [Read more]

	"Six." She laughed harshly. "But I'm piecing it all together. Names, fables, the wandering signposts from the beyond... I'm missing one last key piece of information, and I'll bet my ass it's at the top of the tower. That gives us time to prep..." [Read more]

	"Yes, well... I found something last time. I'm getting close to solving this thing, even if you don't think there is a solution." She rolled her eyes, smiling despite herself. This time, it had been years for her. [Read more]

	"Gods, you look like you came from a rainstorm in a desert." She rolled her eyes, falling into step with him. Their twin timers ticked down. She summoned a status window for him to formally join her as an ally. It made the future so much easier when he signed on. [Read more]

She reached into her pocket, dropping a large fistful of dice on the floor. Her luck stat boosts easily equipped her with legendary gear.

[Obtained! (L) Shadow King's Chestplate!]
[Obtained! (L) Immortalys Candy!]
[Obtained! (L) Crown of Flames!]
[Obtained! ...]
[Obtained! ...]
[Obtained! ...]
[Obtained! ...]

She poked the X, closing the window in annoyance. Half the stuff she'd trade, the other half she'd keep for a rainy day. She strapped on the chest plate with a grim smile, patting it affectionately. The piece had served her well once upon a time... she was glad to have it back.

There were still more than enough dice in her pocket. Her eyes fell on a figure at the end of the alley.

"...about time."

	[Use Skill: Detect Ally] She fiddled with her screen. Nothing. That little... At least it meant that their status was intact. She had not been dreaming. She always tried this first, every time, and the system always stopped her, every time. She had not yet registered any allies at this point. But he was around here somewhere. He always was.

Well, that was strange. Anjune set down her pen, gazing up at the timer above her head. The timer was not unfamiliar, heralding the onset of another outbreak. She poured a ring of gasoline around her, struggling with the heavy container of gas. The action would appear almost comical in comparison to her short stature if anyone had the energy to laugh.

She didn't look like much, a small woman, easy to underestimate. Anjune had long made peace with her appearance, using her silver tongue to deadly effect. The only thing more sharp than her switchblade were her wits.

Her lighter danced through her fingers as she spun it, the small flame flickering in and out of existence. She stood in the center of it all, waiting patiently. Her line of work had made her familiar with how to use a fight, and she palmed the blade in her pocket. Nothing should get through to her, but she didn't fear the intrepid few that would try.

Anjune smiled, the barest hint of emotion. This system was one of the best things to happen to this city in a long time. Finally, fortune would favor those who chased it, rules be damned.

She tossed blue hair over her shoulder. The action was as familiar as the setting, though her goals changed each time. She knew what to expect. Kicking a stone, she heard it clatter along the empty streets. Her eyes flashed, the blue almost startling against her complexion, searching for something, someone.

Where arrrre yooooouuu?~

[Status Window]

[Name: Anjune]

[Age: 24]

[Appearance: S-s-see image..???

[Personality: Anjune is a ruthless, manipulative lawyer with a knack for exploiting loopholes and bending the law to her advantage. She thrives on bending systems to her will, using her sharp legal mind to get her clients off the hook—no matter how guilty they are—as long as the price is right. Driven by ambition and a hunger for power, she’s always looking for her next big deal, willing to manipulate, coerce, or outright deceive to get ahead.]

[Stats: Strength - 11; Dexterity - 19; Constitution - 13; Intelligence - 19; Wisdom - 16]

[Skills:]
- - - -[Deception (lvl. 10)]
- - - -[Persuasion (lvl. 9)]

- - - -[Basic Martial Arts (Kung Fu) (lvl. 6)]
- - - -[Disguise (lvl. 7)]

[Authorities: ]

[Backstory: Anjune grew up in a tough, working-class neighborhood where she learned early on that the world wasn't fair—and if you wanted to win, you had to bend the rules. Orphaned by the age of fifteen after a car accident claimed both her parents, she quickly realized that survival meant playing a game that most people didn’t even know existed. Armed with a sharp mind and a sharper tongue, she put herself through school, eventually earning a spot at Columbia Law at age nineteen, being the youngest person and one of the few women in her class. There, she earned a reputation not just for her intellect, but for her ruthless ability to outmaneuver her peers and professors alike. After graduating, Anjune opened a small, shady firm, and it didn’t take long for her to make a name for herself by defending the guilty—criminals, corrupt officials, and shady corporations—using loopholes, technicalities, and her unmatched ability to manipulate the legal system. She delights in watching the guilty walk free, as though she’s beaten the system at its own game. Despite frequent offers she avoids getting entangled with clients. Anjune keeps business strictly business. What she wants isn’t affection; it’s control, power, and money. She has a reputation for doing whatever it takes to win, no matter how despicable. Anjune has no moral compass when it comes to getting ahead; bending the law to her advantage is just another part of the job. Even in a profession notorious for its cutthroat nature, she stands out as particularly ruthless and unscrupulous—despicable even by the low standards of her peers. She doesn’t care who gets hurt, as long as she comes out on top.]

Leanne wouldn't forget. She wouldn't. As she sat on the floor of the room, alone and terrified, she realized neither of those things were true. She wasn't terrified, she was strangely calm. And she wasn't alone. Placing a hand on her belly, she thought.

Time stood still, but not for her child. The creature grew and developed inside her, providing a reassuring sense of... something. Leanne still wasn't sure of her opinion on it... (eight months later, and the quandary still plagued her so), but it was here to stay.

She closed her eyes, trying to think of a plan. It was as if when she placed her hand closer to her child, her mind got clearer. Thoughts made sense again. Leanne knew that whenever the thoughts were triggered, the pieces came together. She knew what questions to ask, the sense of deja vu filling in the gaps. Leanne only needed to create something that would give her that spark of recognition. Unbidden, a man's voice came to her.

"Play to yer strengths, Mags. Yeh only get one shot in this world. If you drop yer wand for a second, it's over. Yeh don't need flashy motions to win. Yeh need a few simple spells, good spells, reliable spells. That's all."

She could feel the flagstones beneath her feet, smell the burning straw from the incarcerated training dummies, hear the shouts of the squads around her, see the grizzled man in front of her, looking twice her age instead of the four years older he was supposed to be.

"My strength is fire," she had responded with.

"Prove it."

Leanne held a fire ball in her hands in both worlds. She lifted it into the air, bringing it down upon her other hand. In the other world, a ring of fire whipped through the training arena, concentric walls travelling ever outwards. In this one, her purpose was much simpler.

A tattoo.

Remember what Evan told you.

It was small, on the inside of her forearm. She wouldn't be able to ignore it this time.

It hurt like.

She didn't care.

"I won't forget," she said again.

One name on the wall stuck out to her.

In all her time at the house, she had never heard anyone mention a Connor.

She slammed her fist into the floor. How did someone remember something? "I've written notes, haven't I?" They were on the edges of her consciousness, pieces of paper she picked up and threw out without reading them. Messages on the windowpane written in condensation. Notes in her books, everywhere.

"I'm not going to forget this time," she whispered, vowing to herself that she wouldn't.

"I have a feeling you're going to say more than once, and I'm not going to like it." But it would explain why she felt things around him; inexplicable, random, unfounded things. She felt emotions that weren't hers. She felt the strangest urge to befriend him. Maybe that's what kept her coming back. Leanne looked up at him, face arranged in concentration.

"So when do I forget? Is it as soon as I leave the room? When I go down to the village? Overnight? And how do you remember?"

	It was like she was waking up. This almost made sense. This almost- "Have you told me this before?" It was the strangest question. She hoped Evan would laugh it off, call her crazy for a change. [Read more]

"Why? That makes- It's so counterintuitive! Take us here to brainwash us? Does this place just want to populate its village?" She shook her head, over and over again like a bobblehead, the pieces making no more sense to her than they did before. Was Aleks the realm, or was the realm Aleks? Or was he a mere blip in the story of this place, doomed to remember forever as the house's keeper?

"You keep saying lasted. What happened to the others? Where did they go?" This was starting to feel more and more like a horror movie. When Leanne had gotten here, she didn't question it. It seemed like a safe haven, a world away from the dark and watchful eyes that never stopped seeing. Being here felt like a gift from the universe. A fantasy, a break, a chance to take a deep breath and take stock of her life.

She thought this house was chance to live a life in peace, her biggest mistake buried like it never existed.

Escape had never been a thought to her. She had always assumed when she wanted to go home, she'd be taken back. (After all, when she'd wanted to be away, she'd been taken here. Somehow. Her memories were still strangely fuzzy.) Because escape sounded sinister, like there was something to run from.

"Was he there?" She eased herself down to the floor, sitting amongst the plans and papers. "Or did you just enter... an empty void?" Leanne had the strangest urge to reach out an take his hand, to tell him it was all going to be right, that she would take him home if she had to summon hellfire to rip apart the fabric of reality. But that was probably the hormones talking. She coughed uncomfortably, trying to clear her mind and return to the topic at hand.

Leanne.... Leanne didn't remember dying. "New Jersey... that's in America, right? I've heard of it."

She paused, thinking about his words. What if they were all dead and this was some twisted afterlife? Did that mean that she had failed- Leanne looked down instinctively. No, still there. What kind of life was she to leave?

"Tell me Evan... what was it like when you came here? Was there a house yet?"
