(open) you're looking at me like you don't know who i am
Who: Ange, Ruby, Break, and anyone who knows any of them.
What: Corruption turned Ange into a true Umineko witch who decided the best way to keep the people she loves safe from this town is to drag them into a pocket dimension.
When: For a while in March.
Where: Ange and Ruby's house-turned-small-pocket-dimension.
Content Warnings: Potential violence if anyone acts particularly antagonistic. Potential talk of violence or gore. Other warnings will be added when things pop up.


Perhaps you have seen Ruby's odd network post and decided to check things out. Or maybe you're just wandering around Trench and notice that Ange and Ruby's house suddenly looks.. different.
The house has been completely overgrown by way oversized roses, big thorns growing out of all the stems, completely obscuring the structure that's supposed to be underneath it. If you get close enough to the cluster of roses, you may feel your connection to any of the three people inside suddenly pull you in. (Please note: only people who know either Ange, Ruby or Break will be able to enter the pocket dimension because of this!)
If you give in to the sensation, everything around you might go black, and when the light returns, you seem to find yourself in.. a hedge maze. A rather odd one, though. As you stumble through it, you may suddenly find yourself in random rooms, and then back out of them into the hedge maze once more. The Moss King's wild plants seem to have even invaded corners of this place, so you might want to watch out you avoid having those snap at you. Retracing your steps through the labyrinth feels impossible, like the way is changing up behind you with every step. Some rooms make perfect sense - like a neat and elaborate kitchen, or a library - and others seem to consist of nonsense with stairs leading upside down or to nowhere, or gravity not working in a specific room at all.
Flying throughout the entire maze are golden butterflies. They seem to fly with direction, and if you follow them, you might find them leading you to one of the people you were looking for..

[If it is necessary to drag Ange kicking and screaming, it will mean she is still corrupted, and thus nothing will be accomplished! The ideal will be for Ange to make the decision to back down on her own — and, Break is realizing, that's going to require a group effort. He's never going to be able to bring her around on his own, with his valiant knightly words.
Break is not especially put out by this. She may not be halfway to beasthood this time, but her condition is very clearly much worse, a result of multiple traumas all building up over time rather than the one trigger of the house fire. It's no surprise at all, then, that it might likewise take multiple appeals to help her heal.
Which means his effort will be better spent catching her other friends before a Ruby does, and manipulating them as best he can into being a little less obnoxiously heroic.]
Perhaps you might leave the barrier open just a little longer…? I'll see if I can't bring some of them around on your behalf. Dear Qrow's gone off to brood about something or other, too, so I'll want to go catch him properly before you close us off for good.
[He is not at all above using his boyfriend to play the "do it for meeeeeeeee" card.]

[ Thankfully this card is extremely powerful to use on Ange. It's extremely powerful when it's Break, anyway. Even if he wouldn't be laying it on thick, the girl just wouldn't be able to resist granting his wish.
Sure, keeping the barrier open for longer is a risk, but not a big enough risk that she doesn't feel confident in granting his wish for a little while longer all the same.
Hence why she says it, seemingly even without having to think about it - just going by her reaction speed, anyway. ]
Just.. [ For a moment she pauses, and there's something a little more vulnerable in her gaze, even if the girl - the witch - would not own up to it right now. ] .. don't leave for too long?
[ Especially if he's going to chase after Qrow. It's not something she'd deny him, but the idea of him potentially leaving this place even for a little bit is scary in its own way. What if the Pthumerians try to keep them there, having caught on to her plan? ]
no subject
[He is teasing, but it would probably work.
He himself is not worried about getting stuck outside. He can find allies out there too if he must, and it's not as though he hasn't been skipping around between dimensions he shouldn't have been able to access half his life. With this strange link to Ange and her magic intact, he has no reason to believe he couldn't rip another hole between the other reality and hers if he really needed to.
Hopefully, they won't have to test that.]
