Riley: laughs You're welcome!
Corrin: to Riley I was Above. When does the day end?
Riley: In an hour. Tonight is fourteen hours long, tomorrow is only seven, tomorrow night is ten hours.
Aethea: What kind of schedule is that?
Riley: Last week, one of the days was sixteen hours, and the night was five. This is better.

Addic: falling asleep Y'all have a weird time frame. who chooses when the day in done?

Riley: We don't actually have a sun and moon down here. So it's an illusion. Night, day, blah, blah. The schedules are different so sometimes the Nightmarish and Dreamweavers get a huge night of food, and then some nights with barely any time. Makes it harder for things to be stolen, people to escape, etc, etc. Some species are only allowed out at night, and some - freshly dead people like yourselves in particular - aren't supposed to go out at night at least for the first little while, for your own safety.
Riley: Your memories, pain, energy and emotions are still too fresh. Too tempting for some species. And you can't die, so they can take all they want. Hurt you all they want. And leave you. And come back for more whenever they feel like it.
Riley: Have a cookie.

business

Addic: takes cookie But what if I can un-die? tastes cookie Wow, this is amazing!

Riley: Un-die? Like, getting reincarnated?
Corrin: Of course it's amazing.

business

Addic: Um… kind of. Before I died, I had to modify my drink so that I could actually be dead. If I were to drink another modified one, I would become alive again. picks up the hidden back of viles Corrin, you hid my bag of things right after we died. Remember?

Corrin: Because. They wanted to sightsee down here. And this was the fastest way to do it.

business

Addic: Finishing the cookie Exactly. and Corrin said that we shouldn't. So we did.

Riley: Well then. If you want to stay down here, be my guest. Just don't un-die. That will complicate all sorts of things.
Corrin: Wait, today is- Death. Tomorrow Castor comes.
Riley: grimaces Oh, the joy of being woken up at 2 in the morning to the sweet sound of trombones being played in the worst way possible, completely out of tune.

business

Addic: Whos Castor?

Corrin: You forgot already? The soul you talked to. The banshee who knew me as Fergo. The one who watched you fall and complained about the paperwork he would have to fill out. The guy who makes you steal a trombone for him when you piss him off.
Riley: Oh, the look on his face when we tell him Nori beat the game…
Corrin: grins That'll be fun.

business

Addic: Oh! that guy. I thought he sounded familiar. yawns

Riley: Are you tired or just bored of talking about Castor?
Riley: Oh, it's getting dark. Night is almost upon us. sticks her head out the window and yells at Nori GET BACK IN HERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE POSSIBLY TORTURED! OR WORSE! YOU HAVE glances at clock FIVE MINUTES!
Riley: That should do it.

business

Addic: yes.
Addic: leaning out the window NOR- It feels really nice out here.

Corrin: Not for long.
Riley: If you stay out there when it's night, you're sitting ducks. glances at the duck who is indeed sitting No offense.
Aethea: Sitting ducks in the middle of a pack of wolves.
Riley: yelling out to Nori Come back or your cookie gets destroyed and devoured!
Riley: And then you!

Riley: Why tell us it means something if you don't know what it means?
Aeteha: Boo. to Riley Now you have to explain night and day to him now too.
Riley: Sun and moon do not exist down here. They are illusions. Night and day last for different lengths every day, to keep people on their toes. Tonight lasts fourteen hours. Tomorrow is seven. The nights are longer and shorter for the species that live down here too, that are far less pleasant than those you see in daylight. Generally, unless you can handle it, you don't go out at night. And you especially, you and Addic, do not go out. Your memories and feelings and pain are still so fresh, so tempting. And you're already dead. So they can hurt you all they want, take all they want from you. Torture you, steal your memories, give you horrible nightmares. It'll hurt. But you'll survive, and heal. And they can come back and do it again.
Riley: So you don't go out at night. If you want, Corrin can explain in detail why you don't, what will happen and the laws at night.

Nori: I DO know what it means, I just really don't want to tell you.

Corrin: No. Yes. What's minecraft? After a couple nights, it'll wear off. You'll be deader than you were, and a lot less of a target. But for now, yes, it's aw man for you.
Riley: Minecraft sounds weird. Mining is already a craft.
