LPDnD: Knocking on Heaven's Door

Post by Blackferne » Wed Apr 02, 2014 3:25 pm

The last breath escapes from your lips and you see a bright light at the end of a tunnel. As you rise up through it you hear birds singing and find yourself floating on your back in a refreshing river on a warm sunny day. You feel compelled to just float on your back. All your fears, pains, anxieties wash away from you as you lazily float along with the current. You look to your left and right and see other people floating in the river lightly splashing and singing. You close your eyes and are at peace.

Then you hear a voice, “This is him. Get him out of the water.”

Next thing you know you are in what can best be described as a waiting room. There are several benches, two clerk windows. There are others waiting there. Everyone in the waiting room is wearing a simple white shirt, pants, and plain brown sandals.

“Next!” a cranky elderly looking blue humanoid yells from her clerk window.

Looking around the waiting room you see the following familiar faces: Gobo, Ham'mon, Spintik, Stavis, Syric, Tony, Trinal, and Victae. There are several other people or souls you don't recognize. Your only possessions at the moment are the white shirt, white pants, and brown sandals you are wearing.

Is there a number or anything to indicate what the proper order is for the people in the waiting room?

Most people are sitting down. Victae has a clipboard and is filling out something. Free free to approach.

"Well... I'm confused." Trinal looks about. "But at least we gave a good accounting. "

If no one else is going to...

Tony will step up to the clerk and give a small bow...(it's less fun to do that without a cloak to flourish) :woe:

"You called m'dear?"

Trinal walks to Victae. "What's happening here? Not that it isn't good to see you, but... " he shrugs helplessly and gestures at the room.

@Tony

"Here are the basic intake forms for Bureau 17. Please fill them out in their entirety and we can get you to a processing agent as soon as heavenly possible."

She hands you a clipboard with maybe 40 pages and a fountain pen for you to use to fill it out. It is mostly biographical inquiries surrounded by boilerplate fine print and legalese.

"When you finish turn it in at the next window."

Shouting past you. "NEXT!"

@Syric
"Honey, here are the forms, fill them out in full and turn them into the next window when you are done. NEXT!"

@Trinal
"Hey! Good to see you too." She smiles realizing the gang is mostly here. "I was told to fill out this form and they'd get to processing me." She shrugs.

Tony stands dumbfounded for a moment

"So this is hell. It's not quite what Tony Plush expected. Then again Tony Plush also expected Avandra would have been looking out for him when he died too and we can see how THAT worked out."

Tony sighs and shuffles back over to his seat and begins his trek through the bureaucracy level of hell.

Stavis in a state of shock will stay put. He does look around the room eventually but its clear he is confused and maybe a bit unwilling to accept that he is here in Heaven.

Trinal smiles at Victae, then looks at Ham'mon. "Ah, my friends, you sadly missed the conclusion. Although we fought to the last of us, and took a VERY large number of them with us- although they don't seem to be here.... " Trinal looks bemused. "At any rate, I believe the Professor escaped after it was clear he couldn't help you. While I'll miss him, I'm glad that he at least survived and perhaps can tell our tale." He sighs. "But like Tony, I didn't think the afterlife would be so... odd. Excuse me, I imagine I should get started too."

Trinal walks over to the window and asks for the forms. "Sooner done, sooner on, I say."

[ooc- How many did I nail on that last round?]

Victae stands up and walks to the second clerk window to turn in her forms.

"I'll review these and we'll have you onto the next step in a jiffy dear."

Once done Tony will take his forms over to the second clerk and hand them over

"So what's a nice girl like you doing in a hell like this?"

Once done with his forms, Trinal will turn them in.

"Oh this isn't hell. And aren't you a flirty one. I'll have you know that my mother wouldn't approve unless you were pureblood Klantorth." She smiles starting to look over your form.

"After we review your paperwork, we will have the department of permanent records pull your files and you will meet with a case worker. That shouldn't take too long. There are reading materials in the waiting area."

As you look over the reading areas you see some books in poor shape and a few pamphlets. Some have such titles as "Death and Dying", "Is Spectral Cleansing Safe in My Condition?" "Tobin's guide for Spirits".
