Maybe I'll play Cyberpunk 2077 some more. My brother maxed out my character a year and a half ago. Haven't seen him since. Miss him.

”Mr. Dawson, why don't you have a seat?” He said, gesturing to the brown leather chair he had his hand resting on.

The men behind Adel stepped forward. They each placed a firm hand around his upper arms, half-guiding, half-dragging Adel to the seat. If Adel struggled in any way, their plan would have been quickly subduing him with a blow to the cheek - but besides tensing up, the man didn’t fight.

They shoved Adel into the seat, twisting it so it faced the mirror. Vincent still had that smirk on his face as he picked up a bowl of shaving cream and an applicator brush on the counter. 

Slowly, methodically, Vincent applied shaving cream to Adel's face while speaking.

”Now, my men tell me that you and your spies have decided to make it your home in White Pine. Not that I care too much about that.”

He set down the bowl, picking out a barber's blade instead. He opened it, the fresh gleam of a clean, sharp blade within.

“What I really care about, though, is who set you up to do this.”

The blade pressed against Adel's neck as Vincent leaned over, staring at the man through the mirror.

”So, what'll it be, Canary? You gonna sing?”

Nocturnal Memoirs (2024)

"A million times I have done this charade. The moment people figure it out, I get the boot." she thought.

"But don't you want to see the fear in their eyes when they see who you really are...? Don't you want dominion of this place, just like how you were unchallenged in Vaal Kastrix?" said the Voice.

Ciara scoffed, immediately thinking of Gulliver and Valen. "I'd love to wipe the smirk off their faces."

"It starts by building a rumor. A rumor of power. This could be the place to start."

She took a deep breath, narrowing her eyes resolutely at the Undermage. "Head Advisor, with all due respect, you have no right to ask me about my intentions. If you want answers..."

She stood from her seat, rising to her full height. 

"You'll have to duel me for them."

Wow, well done on driving through a blizzard. 🫡

And sleeping late for house sitting with lovely fur babies is lovely~

It's been snowy and cold here, so I've been staying indoors and doing my coursework. And medicine for my fish came in today. -w-

@ERode Gyft EMPs cause all people with a gyft in a 50 foot radius to pass out for three posts. And gyft negators, it's a little tag that hooks into the skin of a single person. The tag lights up, and they are unable to use their gyft. It has an area of effect of about ten feet. :>

A promotion.

Ciara thought it highly unlikely, but in this situation, Michael knew more than her. Perhaps he felt a shred of pity for her, and was giving her some sense of false hope.

Regardless, if he was terribly upset with her, he didn't show it. Honestly, if he thrashed her she probably wouldn't react much. It'd happened at the orphanages enough times. But instead of all that, he was… almost kind, with his words.

Ciara sighed a little and nodded, before focusing on the shift in conversation to Professor Alto. At the news of Hildegunde, Ciara felt a terrible twist in her stomach. If she had had anything for breakfast, she was certain she would have lost it in this moment. 

That was her. She did that. If Hildegunde never opened her eyes again, that was her fault. And Hildegunde had only ever been kind with her. Hell, they had even stood on Ciara's side.

And now?

No one was on her side. No one her age, at least. No one in her class. 

Was this really what she would amount herself to be? This sad, lonely girl with a mountain of sins?

Ciara ran a palm over her eyes, then down her face, as if she could rub away the guilt. Shouldering her bag, she marched herself to the girl's carriage, sparing one glance to Davil.

Yes, at least out of all of this, he was her saving grace. Her one redeeming moment. However much it amounted to, in the grand scheme of things.

As she set her bag beside her and got comfortable withing the carriage, she tried to drain away all her emotions. Tried to become clinical. Tried not to feel. A little knowledge to chew on might help with that.

So her attention turned to Professor Alto. He might hate her now, but he was still her teacher. 

”Sir? Can you tell us a little about the judicial system in Vaal Nero?”

Might as well learn a bit about how her case might look.

Aetheric Dive

This is the true nature of Vincent's ability, and something he prides himself on. He is able to take his aetheric wisps, and sink them into the mind around him. From there, he can read, insert, and remove thoughts and memories. Essentially, the brain becomes his home, and he can fashion it how he likes. He can fashion commands that change the very structure of the brain, rewiring synapses and making the changes near-permanent. 

It is possible for a target of his to fight against a thought implanted. However, they first have to recognize that the thought is foreign. This is a difficult thing to do, especially if Vincent inserts thoughts, memories, and commands that seem natural. If a person is prone to eating ice cream, and Vincent commands them to eat ice cream, it is very unlikely they will notice the foreign input, and instead go eat their ice cream.

However, if someone notices a thought is foreign, they can try to resist it. This is an incredibly hard thing to do as they are going against the rewriting Vincent has done to the mind, but can be done with consistent effort and time, typically a few days.

It is due to this that Vincent will often write in a command that will force a person to seek him out, so he can tamper with their mind again and solidify his hold. When he repeats his rewritings, they become stronger, less malleable, and more permanent.

Due to his influence in the mind, there is a sudden surge of chemicals like serotonin and dopamine, which flood the mind when he is done, giving the person almost a high. They'll become very happy for a few hours, before crashing and craving more. This too, can be overcome, though it is a difficult thing, just like any withdrawal and addiction.

(A 1d12 dice roll. If his is higher, he gets into the victim's mind successfully. If his is lower, he suffers mental recoil, unable to retry until two posts pass. An intoxicated mind or traumatized body takes -2 on their dice roll. A person can choose not to roll, meaning they allow Vincent into their mind.)

Limitations and Weaknesses:

If a person is listening to music or is otherwise actively shielding their thoughts with surface nonsense thoughts, like what they want to eat or what groceries they need, he is unable to dive past that in Aetheric Hearing.

If a person electrocutes themselves or him continuously, this will disrupt his influence and he'll be kicked out of a mind (if he is in one). It will also make him unable to enter into or hear a mind.

He can attack or hear multiple targets at a time, but can become quickly overwhelmed with the stimuli and be unable to move.

Now those are some nice gifts. Shame, Vincent can't win 'em all. xD

I raise you:



Through the fear, through the heart that's broken 
Our world lies in wait for me
Let me tear every scar left open 
This is, the taming of the beast 
I'll end this war you started 
I'll stitch this wound with bloodshed 

You are my wicked victory
@ERode

Oh heck yeah. 😎 I'm legit so excited.

So who's the war, Vincent v....?@LanaStorm

This is Emily's big moment. Will she join with Matthias, or will she side with Vincent....
