A cold, delicate hand grabs yours and pulls. It pulls, and it pulls... there's a sense of urgency in this icy grasp, as well as a trace of reluctance. Abruptly the hand let's go, right as your vision fades to black, and for a brief moment, only a brief moment, your senses disappear. There's only the eerie sensation of weightlessness before your feet are settled back on solid ground again.

"I am not burying her in the garden. Are you sure you know what you are talking about? You inspired it."

Re: outside

[squirreledaway]

I-I wasn't saying putting her in the garden! I agree, that's not the best place... But pushing her out of sight and out of mind doesn't seem like it's going to solve the problem, either. Is there a better way to deal with her?

Re: outside

"...I could burn it in the fireplace."

She isn't even using proper pronouns for the corpse anymore. Nurse Echo can't care.

[he shakes his head and t... tries to pick up the corpse]

I'll take her down.

Re: outside

[screwthatnoise]

The nurse just shoots him a look.

She glances at the trapdoor.

Then back at him, and the corpse.

"Very well."

[SORRY, YOU ARE NOT GOOD AT THIS TAKING CARE OF THINGS IN SOME RESPECTS, NURSE ECHO.

Anyway, descending down the trap door.]

Re: outside

It's dark down there. There are whispers, but you remember those, don't you.

But the way down is a ladder, and it's not a practical ladder by any means. The steps are thin and very sharp.

[gee i wonder why

it couldn't be because they're knives could it


but he's being careful]

Re: outside

[screwthatnoise]

Don't hold it against them, they're knives and they can't help it.

But yes, there are also the handles of the knives to help guide you down to this darker part of the heart. I'm sure the smell of the charred corpse AND the smell of that room will soothe you remarkably.
