THE FIRST VICTIM

[monoguests]

[This morning, it seems like the world should have ended, but if anyone wakes up early enough or just (quite understandably) couldn’t sleep… well… they’ll see four giant Monobears catching the falling moon and pushing it back up into the sky.

That sure is a thing that happened, but it seems to have happened before touching the ground. That’s a good thing, right?

...Unfortunately, there might be something a little wrong. For one, there’s no music playing on the loudspeakers… which kind of leaves an unsettling stillness hanging in the air.

Maybe it’s best to check around the camp to make sure everyone’s alright.]

[Not sure if she believes her or not. Worth a try, at least.]

Then you should know what it means when I say Mac is dead.

[fitnessenthusiast]

[Mac... that's... the muscle guy, right.

She isn't sure what to say so she nods slowly.]

[tsungeonsanddragons]

Are you sure you know what that means? You don't have to lie to me. I'm not going to get mad.

[After all, it's not like Wiitney killed him. Hopefully...]

[fitnessenthusiast]

[She looks... reluctant. Clair is a Food Trainer and trainers are always calm.

But still, she can't help but be nervous.]

...I do not know.

[tsungeonsanddragons]

[She merely nods in understanding.]

Right now you're alive. Living. You can breath, eat, move, think, and more. But when you die...all that stops. Your heart stops pumping blood through your body, your breath ceases, you can't move at all, and your brain shuts down.

Essentially, your body becomes a husk.

[fitnessenthusiast]

....Oh.

[A lot of that seems normal, but the not moving part is.... worrying.]

How do we get him to stop being a husk?

[tsungeonsanddragons]

[Oh man. Now she's starting to get choked up. Just give her a moment or two to compose herself.]

...we don't. When you're dead, that's it. At least, that's the end for life as we know it. It's possible there could be something else, but...no one knows for sure.

[fitnessenthusiast]

...Oh.

[Wiitney is now very quiet.]
