A drawing by Mortis Ghost featuring the Batter from OFF against a dark background. The Batter is stepping forward into a bright doorway. A game-like dialogue prompt is overlaid on the image and reads "Enter Zone 0?" with the "Yes" option highlighted.

OFF will release tomorrow, August 15th, at 10 a.m. Pacific Time.

Just one day left...!

🟣
*there was a small token on the chair he sat on.*

"use it if you ever need assistance."

🐇.... *he held it in his hands, inspecting it*

👁️looks like a ID to me

🐇WHAT SORT OF ID HAS-

👁️*they took it and turned part of it, it broke into two pieces.*

🐇..holy shit-

👁️yup

🟣*he hummed baby shark as philyra opened the door and left, there was a bit of yelling in the corridor before another door slammed shut*

hahah. welp. that settles it. bye bye!

🐇 HEY WAIT-

*the familiar mist surrounded him.. and he was gone.*

🐇 aghhh- dammit!

👁️he did leave something yk

🐇huh?

🎶 YOU COULDN'T TELL THAT MY SUPERIOR PRESENCE WAS MISSING!?

haaah.. why did i expect anything more than that.. you people clearly aren't sophisticated enough to tell..

i'll go back to my room, i have alot to catch up on.

..and i need to get this damned song out of my head..

🟣 *he snapped his fingers, one of the rings in his hands glowing before more of the same mist shows up and drops philyra flat on the ground*

🎶 WELL THAT TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH! WAS IT REALLY THAT HARD TO TELL I WAS REPLACED!?

👁️no
🐇 yes

👁️but i want you to think about the fact that it's best to not keep him hidden away for this long.

i would prefer to deal with a explosion, not a nuclear bomb.

🟣 fair point. here's your nuisance.

🐇i feel like we're going WILDLY off-topic right now.

🟣oh, yeah. you guys want me to bring him back by the way?

🐇HELL NO

👁️yeah kinda

🐇haco what the hell??

👁️yeah, he's annoying. and entitled. and a narcissist.

BUT he's still a part of our office.

🐇regretably.

👁️regretably, yes.

🐇 i don't think we're on the level where i'd be comfortable with this.

🟣dude i've been interacting with you for about.. uhh, 3 months i'd say? give or take?

👁️damn this tea is good

🟣right?? i always wanted to try the northern blends but never had the time to go get some!

🐇 WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU COME FROM!?

👁️ door

🟣 sounds about right.

🐇i can't handle having more than one weirdo in here..

🟣buddy we live in the city i don't think having weirdos is that rare.

🐇aghh- you know what i mean!

🟣yeah, i do. im just messing with ya, haha!

🐇..of LITERALLY ANYONE YOU COULD'VE PICKED.

🟣to be fair he WAS the easiest to get rid of.

🐇..i'm.. not surprised in the slightest.

🟣im more surprised with how easy it was to fool you lot, considering your backgrounds.

👁️ to be fair i already knew lmao

🐇 run it back by me again?

🟣 okay so BASICALLY i wanted to keep an eye on.. that thing.

*he said as he pointed to horatio through the window*

🐇..and you REALLY thought it was a good idea to get him of all people?

🟣pretty much, yeah.

🟣.... *he stood dumbfounded at how something so simple ruined his disguise after everything.*

🐇 WHAT THE FUCK!?

🟣 ..shiit...

*later in gabriel's room..*

🐇 so let me get this straight- you kidnapped the most annoying person in this office and just-

🟣 pretended to be them, basically, yes.

🐇 ???

🎶 *he removed the ribbon, and placed it on the side, before unwrapping the foil.*

i don't quite see anything.. it has alot of weight to it though, i have to say.

*he leans a bit closer before being smacked flat on the face. orchid mist envelops the spot he was hit.*

[long thread]

🐇oi, nuisance.

🎶hmm?

🐇 you got mail.

🎶oh? it's about time i got some.

🐇 yeah yeah whatever.. get it over with. i'd rather spend as little time as possible with you.

🎶 ..do you HAVE to be here when i unpack this?

🐇 i don't trust you recording this properly.

🎶 haah.. so be it..

// real shit

//ermm nuh uh

(it’s passenger not horatio)

*he broke down crying. he’s sick. he’s sick and he knows it. he enjoyed doing all of that. he’s sick. he did so many horrible things.*

..why..? why.. why..

*just why did i have to remember?*

*every excruciating detail. he remembered. every time he tried, again and again. and nothing happened. every time he was crushed, strewn across the room. every time he screamed until his lungs gave out. every time he did the same to someone else just to feel something.*

I.. i.. didn’t..

💙 *his hands are shaking.*

WHY- WHY ARE YOU!?

I SAID IM SORRY- I DIDNT- I- I JUST-

PLEASE- YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND I- PLEASE- PLEASE- I WASNT GOING TO DO IT IF I-

*he pleaded to nobody. he remembered.*

I DIDNT ENJOY IT- I DIDNT- I DIDNT..

*he remembered.*

bro whose manager is this 😭😭😭

*he was lying. but atleast he can give it to someone else to enjoy.*

*the care he once gave to it was replaced by frantic movements to conceal it again.*

*he took a few deep breaths before starting to recite random numbers.*

...

thank you for the kind gesture.

💙 ...

*he stared at it for a few minutes*

*he unfolded it gently, as if it'd break if he did a wrong move.*

*as he started seeing what it is.. as the stench filled his lungs..*

*it almost looked as if it were writhing. he thought he heard it squirm and squelch.*

*he quickly wrapped it back up.*

// oh i just meant my character’s pov haha but yeah!

if anything i think he’s intentionally giving felckia hope of getting rid of it to see what’ll happen

(he’s pushing them towards manifesting for shits and giggles)

// well, it’s not like he’d be able to tell outright.

or maybe he just didn’t tell him intentionally. who knows :)
