Hinoiri's Endless Loop
From Radiant Heart MUSH
Summary: Hinoiri finds her days getting a bit repetitive... as in the same day is posting over and over and over. While it starts out fun, it quickly begins to get more and more... troubling. Then disturbing. Finally, horrifying. Can she find the cause of this loop before she goes mad, or is she doomed to relive the same day forever and ever and ever?
Title | Date | Scene Summary |
---|---|---|
Mid-Loop: Coco | January 6th, 2025 | After far too many loops, Hinoiri starts trying to find out what the source of all of this weird magic is... one of the first people she investigates is Coco, her patron. Still, while she doesn't get all of the answers she seeks, she does get some advice and a few ideas. She even decides to spend the day having fun, for once. After all, what does it hurt? |
Time-Loops: Marinette | January 6th, 2025 | During the time loops, Hinoiri ran into a young girl undergoing her own finale... and seeing Ladybug meet her end only drove the girl further and harder than she'd ever driven before. Fortunately, she has others reaching out to pull her into the future when she can no longer carry the burden herself. |
Mid Loop: Koji | January 7th, 2025 | Hinoiri ambushes Koji... over many loops. Getting angrier. And angrier. And angrier with each one... until, finally, she manages to find out his deal. It turns out he isn't the one trapping her... and his history mirrors her own. However, while he cowered from the light in the darkness... she chased it, even as it burned her. In the end, the truth was somewhere in the middle. |
Recovery Loop: Sayaka | January 7th, 2025 | After her perfect loop fails to BREAK the loop, Hinoiri has a bit of a breakdown and runs to her best friend for help and to destress. She confesses to being Equivalence, as well as some other mistakes, and Sayaka manages to convince her to, well... reach out for some help. Admittedly, not something she has ever been good at. |
Recovery Loop: Rashmi | January 8th, 2025 | Hinoiri reaches out to Rashmi for advice and help after her perfect loop... and learns some things. For example, Rashmi DOES have a breaking point. But also maybe it's okay to accept that not everything depends on her entirely. |
Loops: Emi | January 9th, 2025 | Across all of the timelines, running into Emi was something that happened often, with a youma that, frankly, was horrifying... And one that Hinoiri had to eventually accept that it wasn't her duty to fix. Because what Emi needed was more than just a defeated youma... it was a link to the others who could help her when she needed it. |
Time Loops: Jadeite | January 12th, 2025 | Hinoiri encounters Tamaki, or as he is known, Jadeite, across multiple loops. While he offers help, it isn't until the final loop she's finally able to accept it... and asks him a few questions about his own path of redemption. |
Time Loops: Agera | January 12th, 2025 | Hinoiri goes to Riventon to ask him for help... and learns a lot about him. He is willing to do the right thing, sometimes. But also the wrong thing, MOST times. Also, he has something of someone she cares for. A lot. |
Mid Loop: Niji | January 13th, 2025 | During the time loops, Hinoiri met with Niji a few times... and played in the arcade a LOT! So. So much. Unfortunately, it made many of Niji's lessons incredibly tense. Fortunately, Niji wouldn't remember any of them. |
Time Loops: Chibiusa | January 14th, 2025 | Across the many time loops, Hinoiri had met with a small lady, the original small lady, in fact. She learns the origins of Chibiusa and finds a bit of a mirror in their situations. Both made mistakes. Both struggled to keep up with the legacy they found themselves in. Both need to blow off steam. Both frustrate Usagi and yet, for some reason, find her often protecting them. And she lets Chibiusa in on a little secret... it's gonna suck, and she's going to be angry and upset and sad... but, most of all? That it's okay. |
Time Loops: Ryoko | January 14th, 2025 | During the loops, Hinoiri met with Ryoko for (almost) daily fencing training! It paid off... but may cause some trouble to brew. |
Time Loops: Mamoru | January 15th, 2025 | Over a multitude of loops, Hinoiri asks Mamoru about his estranged jacket and he has many, many responses... Which all culiminate in a very, very confused Mamoru and an even more stressed Hinoiri. |
Time Loops: Amy | January 15th, 2025 | During the time loop, Hinoiri encountered Amy and shared quite a bit of her 'looping' issues with her... as well as allowed the other girl to experience a few things free of the consequences of reality. However, during this she learns a bit more about the other girl than she'd ever realized. |
Early Loops: Veronica | January 21st, 2025 | During one of her earlier loops, Hinoiri attempted to gather what information she could to try and help make up for the pain she caused Norie. Her first step? Questioning her roommate, Veronica. Also, petting their cat. |
KKF Donut party! | January 29th, 2025 | Hinoiri invites everyone who sparkles with not-dark-energy to the shed for a donut party and to let them know about... the time loop. And to not tell those at Obsidian due to the dangers in such. Also, to share some info about Riventon having a hand and whatnot. Unfortunately, the recent loss of Molly hangs over many heads. |
