(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..

Qrow's life was built on that man's lies. When he was found out, he turned tail and hid himself away, rather than confront those he'd been manipulating.

[Break really isn't supposed to be spreading details about this. Qrow makes it a point to leave Ozpin's name out of things when he complains about the unwinnable war in Remnant, expressly to keep the judgement of strangers off of him and let Ozpin have a chance at making his own fresh impressions on people.

Fortunately, Ozpin has already failed miserably at managing that with Ange anyway, and Break does not actually need to give real details to thoroughly ruin any chance that she might ever respect him ever again. Lovely!]


I wouldn't be surprised at all if he's also the source of Miss Ruby's terrible case of chosen one disease. Someone had to plant those ideas in her head.

cw: talk of...pieces of dead people...?

If you kill him, we'll have to deal with his corpse, though. Or whatever you leave behind of it.

[Break sounds faintly grossed out by this, and wrinkles his nose accordingly. The corpse business, not killing Ozpin. The way he sees things in his current mindset, if Ozpin doesn't want to get casually murdered over sticking his nose into a dimension he isn't welcome in, he ought not to have done the things that have made him unwelcome in the first place. He is not so smart if he has failed to think of that in advance!]

If you really wish him dead I can dust him; it will be much more tidy. Elsewise, let's just toss him out, and let him be bewildered. We have so many things to do in here that are much more pleasant than washing professor bits off the walls.

My understanding is that he tends to run rather than stick about to confront troublesome things. He may well only need to be tossed out the once and that'll be that, then.

[The worst part about all this is that it isn't only Qrow that Break has drawn this sort of conclusion from. He remembers Oscar complaining once about an October wherein half the household was killed and the one adult left made a pot of soup and then fucked off. Having put two and two together, well.]
