destinystrings | What color would you paint the sun? [OPEN]

Who: Allelujah (and possibly Hallelujah) and open.
Where: Capricorn ward, Sagittarius ward
Summary: Weeeooo weeeooo weeeooo newbie alert. With a weird collar. Being in the Tower of Animus for a while doesn't make you very trusting of new places.
Warnings: Hallelujah is a warning (foul language, violence, etc.). Also just being from Animus comes with warnings involving possible discussion of body horror, death, mental manipulation, and general awful.

[Capricorn]

[Another night of restless sleep. He'd gone to bed, nodding briefly to his roommates, and tried to focus on getting to bed. Normally it was fairly easy, but tonight he kept having trouble getting his brain to stop focusing on things. Finally, he'd pushed away thoughts of horror and blood and gone to sleep… and then he'd had a dream.]

[Persona… The word stays with him as he wakes up… in a very different place. A place with a sun shining brightly, and grass under his fingers. … Has he been sleepwalking? He rises, looking around. Allelujah brushes himself off and starts to walk, trying to find the stairs.]

[His collar itches a bit, and he scratches it, glancing at the yellow fluid running through it. It should be time for a checkup soon… he'll deal with that when the day comes.]

[… Finding the stairs is taking longer than it should.]

[Sagittarius]

[… Well. He's walked for a while, and not found the stairs - he's found an entirely different setting. His movements slow as he becomes even more cautious - he doesn't even have a gun on him.]

[There are people milling about, all looking at him strangely. It's not like he's dressed in anything weird, just his normal clothes. Still, he keeps walking, picking his way through the streets. A punk smirks at him, and he just keeps walking. He doesn't want to cause trouble - he just wants to get back to his room.]

There's a group called the Anoli who are working against the government. Their methods can be a little... violent.

And there's the monsters that show up that don't live here naturally.

... What exactly do you mean by 'against the government'? What has the government done, or what have they said it's done?

[That's a... very familiar situation.]

I think their major belief is that the government is lying to the people. The government holds that the world outside Hinoto-Ri has been destroyed, and the Anoli don't trust that and don't like the rules that the government sets down.

But that's still no reason to get people killed.

It should be a simple matter of the government allowing people to see outside the city, then. And while needless killing is wrong... ah... sometimes deaths are unavoidable when targets are struck. I'm not condoning them at all... just that in situations like this things... unfortunately happen. Obviously I can't really judge either side since I don't know much about them.
