ROUND 6 - INTRO

[foundationmods]

[After so long a trip, you're all finally here. Taken through a hidden passage inside of the very mountain itself, you find yourself standing in front of a field of flowers, growing well due to the open roof above it. If you look up, you can just make out the shimmering colors off of the barrier - looking almost like the shine off of a soap bubble.

Try not to trample on the flowers as you approach the open, purple gate, where it looks as if someone is waiting for all of you just inside. And remember to wear your masks, now that you're here!

...Still, the sight of the yellow flowers waving in the wind....such a cheery sight fills you with determination for what's to come.

Welcome to the Underground.

You have the universe to save.]

... did you even actually read his work?

[like. the man's a self-admitted fool?]

[ugly_split_ends]

...Yeah, a-and? I'm not getting your point.

[cw_suicide]

... I guess I just assumed most people would assume Dazai Osamu for a complete fool as he likes to make himself out to be?

[they're not that different in this area, actually]

[ugly_split_ends]

...He's kind of a big deal. Maybe I forgot to mention, but I'm an author...

A-Anyway, what does that have to do with who you are, unless you're some kind of cosplayer?

[cw_suicide]

No, not a cosplayer.

I guess I just relate to those works a lot.

But a writer? What kind?

[ugly_split_ends]

Uggh... I guess Dazai himself would've thought he was an idiot, but... anyway, does that matter? There's plenty of drunk and miserable writers who die before they're forty having altered the literary world.

...Romance novels. Good, intense ones. My most well-received novel So Lingers the Ocean started a whole trend for fishermen becoming attractive. And I'm consistently on the best sellers list... not that I care so much about moving 'units' so much as writing quality works.

A-Anyway, you're dealing with a reclusive author with a split personality... I'm sure that's a shock, but get used to it.
