a simple question; (cw: death/dying discussion)

Is anyone else here dead?

[Just five words. No signature. He'll see how this turns out.]

Yup!

Thinkin' maybe bein' dead was what had us all picked? Not an out there theory- could be needin' to be dead or near enough to it- which would unfortunately mean some of the poor sods here that showed up still alive are a lot closer to their expiry than they thought.

Or it could be somethin' else altogether. Hard to say yet. Magic criteria can be out there sometimes!

[icanhearscreams]

Magic's bullshit.

[He said it and he means it and he'll say it again.]

But maybe. I'd kind of hate for it to be full of dead people since some people here aren't that bad, but we just don't really know.

[hellandbackpack]

Yeah, it can be! Especially if the person usin' it's bullshit.

I think... we don't know enough to say for sure yet. We can theorize and all that but it's gonna take some more investigation to dig up the kinda leads that'll give us a good idea of this place beyond what we've got so far.

[icanhearscreams]

It will. I mean, I'm good at figuring out things... but I don't have weird abilities like some people here seem to have.

[They don't make sense! And that's very frustrating!]
