June Year 1
Romeo's life changed once again as he travelled home from Milano. He had been back at home only a few days when he woke up in a strange bed, dressed in a white skin tight suit and a strange orange liquid filled collar around his neck. There were three strange adults in the room, all had just woke up there as well and there was a note. You're world has been destroyed, I saved you. Let's all be happy here.
It soon came apparant that no one knew what was going on. Had they been kidnapped? Had the world really ended? The tower was five floors high, a cafeteria, an infirmary, a library and a viewing station as well as a dormitory floor. Romeo kept his spirits up as much as he could and began exploring, it was in the first few days that he met Molly. A girl who would become an important friend. On the day they met they mostly agued about dinosaurs and read books and Romeo learned all about superheroes.
He also got very quickly used to the idea of different worlds, the fact that everyone spoke about things that he had no clue about, that magic and other storybook things exist and that some people were actually countries. He got a crash course in using computers as well, though he never particularly had enough patience to sit and use one for long.
A week or two into their stay in the tower they met the administrators; Riki, Dax, Jason and Zo the last of whom seemed a child not much older than Romeo. Romeo was given a job as a janitor, all the jobs in the tower were dangerous and the chemicals made him ill.
But all in all he learned a lot and made many friends. Then as the end of the month drew near some people disappeared... Their trunks emptied, no sign of them...
July Year One
On the 1st July the residents awoke to more floors! A high tech room, an indoor forest, a swimming pool and a maze. As well as a new dorm floor. What was strange and interesting was that the new floors appeared in between the viewing platform and the first dorm level. Odd things happened if they lingered on the new floors too long. But it didn't stop Romeo from exploring.
All the while dressed as a superhero called the Bird Prince because of Molly's influence! It is during this exploration that he met Ienzo, an eight year old who became another Important Person in Romeo's life. He was also convinced by the Doctor that the world hadn't ended and that the administrators were bad people who had lied to them. The maze traumatised him.
More people disappeared though, and they got more interesting food. It was Molly who came up with the horrifying theory that maybe they were eating people. She was reassured by adults but her and Romeo decided they needed to make a superhero team to beat the baddies and save everyone. Romeo believed her theory though and wouldn't eat for a few days, fearing he had eaten Fletcher who was one of his new friends who had disappeared. He was comforted and fed pancakes by Canada.
Near the end of the month Spain spent some time in her dead world (ooc: one of the hiatus options), she was upset when she returned and told Romeo about it. He realised that the worlds maybe really were gone and everyone he knew was dead and finally everything got to much for him and he cried... "But it was all too big, everyone he had ever met before he came here was gone forever and he would never see them again, he was stuck in this tower where people disappeared and probably end up served as meals."
After his small breakdown he decided that if the worlds were gone then the tower was a new world and they had to make sure everyone in it was safe and happy. He made it an oath to Spain, the first oath he ever made to an adult.
August Year One
At the beginning of August Molly and Romeo and some other likely superhero types decided to put to rest the question of if they are eating people once and for all and led an excursion into the walk in freezer. This got a bit sidetracked due to Romeo's general amazement at a thing so cold that ice grew in it. They found no people but still decided that the best course of action was to not eat meat.
Because everyone was sad because of people disappearing Zo decided to try and bring them all back. But it all backfired, the power went out and weird phantoms appeared. The dark was scary and Romeo did his best to avoid phantoms. It was an attempt that eventually failed though as he came across a phantom cat and suffered his first death.
However perhaps luckily for Romeo it happened quickly and when he woke up the next morning in his bed the last conclusion he would have came to was that he had died, he just put it down to strange things happening.
The phantoms were fixed, more floors got added including an outside floor, a cathedral, an aquarium and a planetarium where you could sit and watch endless worlds die.
Romeo spent the rest of the month exploring more and building a tree house in the forest. He found Nepeta who had previously gone missing, but she couldn't remember who he was. This led to him making his first ever network post announcing this new piece of information.
He ended the month with trying to make a cake for his friends, it ended hot cake mix exploding everywhere but he did make a lasting friendship with France out of it and she taught him how to bake properly. He used the new suggestion box to ask for rum so they could make lost bread. He handed out cake to his friends
He met Castial who was an angel and who told him that the world was not destroyed, so he changed his mind on that point. He also assured him that heaven was not destroyed and Romeo and Spain spoke in the cathedral about if God could still hear them, Spain reassured Romeo that he could.
September Year One
The month started well with the addition of ice cream to the menu and Molly introduced Romeo to it immediately. A few days later the first of many many experiments began. Many residents awoke with a strange leash connecting their collar to another persons. Romeo was connected to Vriska and Germany. It was the start of a beautiful hate friendship with Vriska. He also learned that people liked eating colours and so made sure his network posts were red (because that tasted the best).
When the leashes disappeared Romeo received a note saying: Thank you for participating in part one of our experiment. And the tower grew again. Another library, a study room, a media room, a bottomless pit and a room that was empty apart from bloody handprints and screaming.
He spent most of the rest of September helping new people. And spent his last few days as a mostly untraumatised child...
October Year One
Overnight Romeo, France (male), Milagro, Ψiioniic, Germany, Kanaya, Romana and Dean were taken by retrieval units, knocked out if they tried to fight and placed in a cell complex. He tried to keep his spirits up, talking about the blue skies of Italy with Romana, he even wondered with Kanaya if they were going to be sent back home, though deep down he didn't really believe that.
The next day he was taken away from his cell, the first to be taken.. He was taken by retrieval units and modified, his body becoming a hybrid of human and deer. They left him to 'recover' from his surgery.
"I'm sorry Alfredo," he whispered quietly, "I tried so hard, but I think the bad people won.
I couldn't follow your dreams for you." Tears ran steadily down his face, "The worlds are gone, Bianca probably died, I hope she is with you in heaven... There aren't even any blue skies here..."
A moment passed as his sobbing continued, "What do you do when you can't keep your spirits up..." He couldn't lift his arm, or leg, he didn't even want to think about it. He couldn't keep his spirits up if he didn't even have hands to punch the air with. "What do you do..." He fell silent as sleep finally took him away from the horror.
He was taken back to the cells the next day, he shouted that they were bad people as they took France away, he couldn't walk on his new legs, his antlers were heavy and was in shock. He thought it was a punishment for something he had done- the truth that they had done it just because they could was something so big that it took Romeo some years to come to terms with it.
Milagro told him that she was a superhero from the stars and she would stop the bad people. She fought when they took her but they still hurt her and experimented on her. On all of them.
Romeo became close with Psiioniic because they shared the same dream, of creating a free world. Though Psiioniic had long lost the battle in his world. They made a vow to find a world that wasn't destroyed and make a place with no bad people or slavery.
They were in the cells a week until they had all been modified and then they were let out into the tower itself. The rest of the tower were also being experimented on, their feelings were being modified, in groups of obedience, sensory, sloth and paranoia.
Obviously everyone was horrified, Ienzo was upset and Romeo tried to calm him down, Ienzo tried to help Romeo to walk again, Romeo got quite upset when he thought that Ienzo was scared of him and didn't want to be his friend anymore.
He found Molly, or rather Molly found him. She had been looking after Piccolo who had escaped when Romeo was taken. She encouraged him to talk about what had happened. She said she would go beat up the bad people and Romeo got scared that she would be hurt. They made a vow of eternal friendship.
Ventus leant him his hoverboard until he learned to walk properly so he could get around. France (the female one) also spoke to him about what had happened and Romeo realised that the deer had probably died and felt bad about that.
He tried to get back to normal, or as normal as life was. It was hard when he was a deer, he spent a lot of time crashing Ven's hoverboard and accidentally terrifying people. But he made sure to keep his spirits up and help his friends do the same, even though their feelings were being played with more and more.
Having decided that the animals, even the scary ones, were as trapped as the people Romeo did venture forth to try and tell them that everything was going to be alright, and got chased away. He also tried to help some of the people who were halucinating and met some new people. He also helped Kanaya and Dean, when their spirits were low.
Eventually the experiment came to a crux with all those whose feelings were effected having an urge to kill those that had been modified. He woke up to America, his roommate, trying to kill him. Romano who had not been effected fought America to protect Romeo and Romeo escaped. He soon learned that many people in the tower wanted to kill him. And soon found refuge with Psiioniic, who was also hiding from his friends.
They promised to protect each other. He also found Eiji who was not effected and acted as a bodyguard.
Then Molly found them. She was effected and she attacked them. Romeo didn't want to fight her because she was his best friend., Romeo shouted at her and tried to get her to stop. She knocked Eiji out. Romeo made a last ditch attempt to remind her of their vow. She wouldn't stop. So he died for the second time and this time he definitely realised it.
November Year One
Romeo woke up human, with a reward in his room. A puppet theatre. And a new roommate, Lloyd had disappeared and the Protoman was there in his place. He found Psiioniic and agreed to join Signless' rebellion. He became allies with Milagro and they vowed that no one would get hurt again. He tackle hugged Ienzo just because he could.
Coming back from death did make him doubt that God could really reach them in the tower though, because death should lead to heaven. He recieved the rum he had asked for and he and France made lost bread. He mostly worked on being braver in order to stop the bad people. He tried to adopt Ienzo's unversed, Ienzo's reward for the experiment, but it kept returning to Ienzo. He decided to make puppets for his theatre and finally faced Molly.
He promised her that he would remain her friend no matter how many times the bad people made her hurt him.
"We're gonna stick together and show the baddies that they don't scare us and they can't ever make us not be friends. And then we are going to beat them, and teach them what happens when they try and turn us against each other!"
Later that month he had his first proper encounter with a double of someone else from the tower. It went as ridiculously as could be expected and he spent a while thinking Ven no longer wanted to be his friend or had lost all his memories. As he learned about more worlds he learned there were worlds out there where children were not sold but could go to school and be free under the blue sky just like Alfredo's dream. It gave him hope.
Nearing the end of the month there was a glitch on the network and corrupted creepy files began being shown and heard. One of the audio pieces kept replaying help me, help me at Romeo and Molly and they tried to figure out how to help the voice, and how to stop it being trapped.
Things calmed a little over the next few days and Molly threw a party. Charles told him he should dance with Molly and so dancing happened.
The very next day Romeo met the Grand Highblood and annoyed him so much with his cheerfulness that the troll killed him. One day after that a message appeared on the network saying thank you for your patience, I have taken control of the tower, it was difficult but that's okay, I'll start sending people home in an hour, you should say goodbyes before then. Romeo and Molly said their goodbyes and prepared to leave.
Of course it was a trick. Romeo arrived in a world where his brothers barely acknowledged him, his mum was dead and his dad was dunk and sold him back to Luini because he was never his kid anyways. He and Molly managed to break out of the illusionary worlds and escape. It was revealed that the message had come from someone called Ruana and that the worlds had been created from their own minds.
December Year One
Once he was back he continued helping his friends and making new ones. Molly educated him on modern Christmas. He found an injured Grand Highblood and tried to help him get to the infirmary, not caring that the troll had killed him less than a month before.
At the end of the month the network showed Zo being punished for his attempts at saving the entire multiverse and bringing in phantoms. He was attached to some kind of machine, a hand stretched towards him and the room exploded.
All over the tower monsters began to flood in.
January Year One
All the tower shrank to just one floor whilst repairs happened, the residents and the monsters were all stuck in the one room and had to fight to survive. Romeo fought with Ienzo and Molly... or more accurately Molly fought and Romeo provided moral support.
Eventually they blacked out and awoke in their beds in a once again larger tower. With monsters. Monsters everywhere. The tower had gotten a lot more dangerous. It got cold, very cold. Romeo and Molly explored the new floors, new people came and Romeo befriended them.
Then near the end of the month Romeo couldn't find Molly. He looked for her and posted on the network asking where she was. He searched every floor with Ienzo but it turned out she had disappeared from the tower and he was heartbroken. He had a feelings Jam with Psiioniic, important as it was the first time Romeo first properly took his feelings, looked at them and spoke about them rather than pushing them away to keep his spirits up. Psiioniic also told him something that he kept with him all the rest of his time in the tower and beyond. He may be small and have no powers but he has a great ability to make friends, and those friends are big and some have powers. His power is the ability to make those friends and help them and to move people to help others.
Just over a week later he met a giant man called Fawkes who was making weapons and asked if he could teach him how to make a knife. He made a shiv, which was his weapon of choice for the next two and half years. A teddy bear also appeared on his trunk with a note saying he had been infected and had to play two games the next month to cure himself. Romeo called the bear Alfredo and looked after it.
February Year One
The first game was the Midnight Game, where residents were in groups in empty dorm corridors and they had to complete a ritual to escape. Romeo's group did so. Romeo mostly worked with Vriska (a different Vriska than the one he already knew) and it was yet another wonderful hate friendship.
Mostly unscathed Romeo returned to the tower proper and learned that he had a new roommate. Ghirahim- they got off to a rocky start when he told Romeo that he was a demon, and Romeo lectured him about being good. It ended with Ghirahim deporting Romeo down to the floor of blood and screaming and Romeo deciding that Ghirahim was a good person deep down.
Romeo continued on his quest to learn to fight the bad people and sought out teachers from around the tower. Franken Stein taught him how to use his opponents' weaknesses against them and fight hand to hand. Ven tried to teach him magic but it didn't really stick and he finally met Signless, Psiioniic's hero. He vowed to help Signless beat the bad people. Signless taught him how to fight with a weapon.
A little while later Ghirahim killed one of the Links and announced it so on the network. Romeo decided to move out of his room for a bit, but only for a couple of days because residents got sick if they didn't sleep in their own bed.
Then about half way through the month a temporary antidote to the infection appeared in the way of chocolates. However eating the chocolates affected their minds, leading them to fall jealously and bitterly in love with the next person they saw or fall in love with the monsters, or other potentially deadly effects.
Romeo ate a chocolate and started stalking L, who unfortunately had fallen in love with the monsters of the tower. This led to Romeo getting trapped by monsters and killed.
Then a few days later Molly returned! The reunion was heartfelt, Romeo summed up the last month.
No, well me and Ienzo got lost in the woods looking for you, and I got killed by monsters and we had to go round a tower that was like this but empty and there was a scary monster called Midnight Man chasing after us and trying to blow our candles out and you can't eat chocolate because it makes you want to do bad things like hurt people or make friends with monsters. Oh and there's a really mean demon living in my room, he killed someone and put blood everywhere so can I sleep in your room?
He got yet another roommate, Gamzee. He Gamzee and Ghirahim 'bonded', by which I mean the conversation shifted from lectures of good and evil to why Ghirahim wore makeup like a noble lady. To finally Ghirahim deciding that both Romeo and Gamzee needed an introduction to baths. So Romeo learned about showers, and miracles. Miracle showers and he got new clothes off Ghirahim. Who it turned out was clearly a good person after all.
Then on the last day of the month those with bears were taken to a strange apartment complex and instructed to play Hitori Kakurenbo, another ritual game this time hide and seak with murderous teddy bears.
They each had a communication device where they had to make a video or audio recording every few hours. They got two chances, if they were caught they could run, if they were caught again they either had to betray someone else or were killed. Most of the deaths were recorded by the communication devices.
So Romeo spent a lot of time hiding under a bed with Molly and John, helpless as his friends died in various gruesome ways. He also spent a lot of time whispering to France and trying to help Vriska keep her spirits up.
Ten hours in Molly was killed. In hour thirteen Vriska betrayed Romeo and John and they got eaten by spiders.
March Year One
Hitori Kakurenbo was notable as the first huge mass tower awful thing, and also because there were a lot of new people in the tower who hadn't been there in October. So there were a lot of very sad very scared people. Romeo was one of them but he also knew that they couldn't give up. He didn't have the shock of this being the first time he had been hurt horribly by the administrators, it was far from his first death. They had been hurt before and would be hurt again and just sitting around crying would not help stop the bad people. So he went on a mission to try and help everyone who was upset.
Of course it will be alright because we will make it alright okay! If we are sad and scared then that's what the bad people want and they will have won. We gotta keep going no matter how many times we die, and no matter what they do to us because they are big bullies and want us to be sad. They like it when we cry so we can't cry we just got to get up and keep living!
He saw this very much like when Alfredo died, an awful thing had happened but they had to keep going. So just like the black brothers had punched him to the floor so he could stand up again he tried to help everyone rise to their feet.
A few weeks into the month though some peoples collars changed, the colour was different and they began to feel strange and their powers went out of control. Romeo helped people as best he could, he wasn't affected himself. However at one point whilst trying to help Nanime he got memory reverted to being in Milano, right back when he was first sold to Rossi and had been accused of theft. It was only for a very short amount of time.
His helping people went a bit awry when he tried to help Minami and got killed by her out of control Persona. Molly disappeared again.
He also continued meeting new people. One of those people was Ken, a boy who was the same age as him and would become one of his best friends.
At the end of the month Willow hoasted a Friendship Affirmation party which Romeo attended.
April Year One
The month started with pranks. Pranks from the administrators that was, and so many were deadly. Luckily Romeo got away with being stained multicoloured by the swimming pool.
As part of his plan to help everyone he decided to make a group for all the children of the tower to work together and help each other. Vriska said it was a stupid idea and Ken wasn't sure if he could trust them and called Romeo too innocent to set up such a group. But there were people that wanted to join.
It was John's birthday and Romeo made him cookies, John told him about how cake was evil (but only cake from boxes).
A post appeared on the network asking what they were afraid of, they were compelled to answer it.
i guess that i am scared that the bad people are actually right. that the world really did end and everyone is dead. if it did end then this must be hell because heaven is really nice and alfredo is there. i guess that means i was bad... i'm scared that my friends will be hurt and that we will never ever escape, hell is meant to last forever isn't it? that all my friends here will be hurt again and again and i wont be able to stop it happening, because the bad people can do whatever they want to us.
i guess i'm scared that my friends from my world would come here, if it is hell. because they are all really nice and so should go to heaven and be with alfredo.
Ienzo disappeared around this time but Spain came back (without memories) and Shotaru returned with memories. At the end of the month Dax went on the network to tell them that they had a rota for being in charge of the tower, that it was Jason's turn next and to be careful
May Year One
People were rounded up and put in a labyrinth to fight to the death. Those that were not taken could watch on the network and could also help their friends by sponsoring them food, drinks, powers or warnings of other people coming. Romeo sponsored a lot of people to try and help everyone. The price for this was nightmares. Romeo had nightmares for the entirety of May, from vivid nightmares of his friends from home being tortured in the tower to seeing the world end, to learning it was his own fault. He knew that it was the bad people trying to hurt him for him helping his friends though and so he tried to keep his spirits up.
Zelda organised a group in the first few days to try and rescue them all, Romeo wanted to help but she wouldn't let him, saying he was a child and would jepordise the mission. Romeo was upset because his friends were getting hurt but she talked him into helping from the outside, watching so that he could communicate where people were.
Of course there was no way to do so, but it did mean that Romeo ended up seeing it all, all his friends dying and all their punishments- those that died were given punishments for the remainder of the event. The nightmares made everyone a little crazy, Gamzee tried to kill Ghirahim, Romeo fought him off, Ghirahim beat him up and Gamzee went on a murder spree, that made Romeo scared.
Jason posted to the network and opened the floor to questions. Romeo had some and he learned that people disappearing was by accident not design, those that came back without memories were actually identical seeming copies from other worlds. When people disappeared they went back to their dead world. As far as anyone knew they still wouldn't die. Gandalf warned him that Jason might be lying about a lot of things.Romeo wasn't sure whether to believe him or not but they were more answers than he had had before.
He spoke to Gandalf and explained about what he knew about Zo- which was not much. Except that he was concerned because Zo seemed young and though his bosses were the bad people that might not mean Zo was bad too... after all he had tried to bring everyone from home to save them and been punished for it. He promised to help Gandalf look after everyone.
He and Gamzee made friends again- or more Romeo apologised for fighting him and letting Ghirahim hurt him and played with Play-doh. There were rumours of a giant spider. Then whilst exploring he got attacked and killed by said giant spider and posted to the network when he came back that the rumours were true. And announced the first meeting of the bitty brigade. Many people told him to not be so blaze about being murdered. But it was far from his most traumatic death and it was his seventh death, it had lost it's sting.
The first meeting of the Bitty brigade went well, mostly them all meeting each other and failing to decide on a name for themselves or a leader, or any rules.
He had to deal with a France who was breaking down, he tried his best but found it hard when she wouldn't listen to him. He found more people new and returned. Roland trained him more in knife fighting.
A leaked network post showed the administrators fighting amongst themselves. Zo was getting upset at their arguing. So May turned into June Romeo's first year ended and he turned twelve.
June Year Two
The arguing between administrators turned into proper fighting. They each took a group and took part in challenges posed by Ruana, there were points for each challenge and the losing group of each challenge had to vote on someone in their group to die. The winning group's leader would be the leader of the tower.
Romeo was in Jason's group. People began being experimented on. Romeo tried to help people, because it had happened to him before, but it was hard when everyone was so sad and scared, when he was sad and scared. He was turned into a six legged moose type creature with antlers and three eyes.
Ken had been experimented on too and Romeo tried to stay strong for him, during their time in the cells Ken warmed to Romeo and they became friends.
At the end of the week Ruana announced winners and losers, each group had lost one and so votes were made for people to die. Most people refused to vote and plans were made to make sure that no matter what Jason did not win.
The deaths were announced, Ven was killed painlessly and efficiently by Dax. Suzaku was killed by exploding by Riki. England was killed by vivisection by Jason. Romeo was horrified and Ken came over to him and covered his eyes for him as Romeo had no hands. Romeo told him that he was wrong, that Ken should stab Jason in the face.
The second week there were additional challenges, like balancing beams. Romeo's second surgery included adding insctoid legs onto him so he could balance better. During this surgery (where he was awake but felt no pain) he told Jason that he was an evil person and would go to hell, that he would know how bad it was and how much he was hurting them and that hell lasted forever.
This was the month where Romeo learned to hate, not just be angry at the bad people who had stole them from their homes and tortured them, but to hate Jason and want him gone.
Somehow despite all their trying Jason didn't lost, he was only a point away from Dax at the end of the week. Romeo was angry because Jason was cheating. A large group of Riki's pod were killed for losing. Ken tried to attack Jason. Also one of the magical girls crushed her soul gem, Ruana was furious.
The challenge in week three was endurance, their cells got worse, monsters tried to claw their way in and they got no food. Romeo spent a lot of time talking in thin air, in the general belief that Jason could hear everything that went on. Telling him that he was a coward and a cheater and everyone else was braver than him.
Jason wasn't seen until the end of the week, he had stitches and blood on him. He was in a very bad mood, he attached them all to each other with tentacle type things until they were a massive tentacle blob thing.
Then it was time for the results. Jason had been disqualified, Dax was considered to not have given his group enough to endure and so Riki won. He would be in charge. For a month. Yes the entire thing had been to rule the tower for one month. Ruana announced that because they had been neglecting the tower itself the residents had been misbehaving. So Jason, Dax and Riki were going back to sort that out and she would be in charge of all the pods for the next week.
To make it all worse it was Ken's birthday, Romeo tried to comfort him as much as he could. He promised him cake when they got back to the tower proper, because Jason should not be allowed to ruin anyone's birthday.
During the fourth week Ruana made Jin do the surgeries. Romeo's consciousness was put into that of a rocking horse. During a conversation with Yu Romeo was told that anyone had the potential to be a hero, they just had to be brave. It didn't matter if they had powers or not. At the end of the week they had a wrap party, Romeo was still a rocking horse. So didn't do much.
Then they were returned to the tower, they got in an elevator and blacked out. However instead of waking up in the tower Romeo woke up on his destroyed world.
July Year Two
Romeo spent twenty days on his dead world, the only person alive, everything dead. Even the stars. The bad people had been right all along. It was near the end of the month that he finally retured to the tower. He found Piccolo who had been staying with Ken, checked on all his friends. He had been given Moby Dick as a gift off Zo for the event and he discovered that his puppet theatre had been destroyed. Ryoji helped him fix it.
The whole tower had a meeting to share information and try and work out how to escape. Romeo went and listened and gave information when he had it. At the very end of the month some people fell asleep and couldn't be woken up. Ken was one of them.
August Year Two
The sleeping people woke up. The second meeting of Bitties happened, Romeo finally made Ken his birthday cake. More people came this time and they nominated Leaders. Ken nominated Sayaka, Romeo nominated Ken and Sayaka nominated Romeo. Ken also suggested they all trained each other in weapons.
Then a space whale hit the tower. Something large and full of monsters hit the upper levels, everyone had to evacuate downwards as floors were destroyed and monsters destroyed floors. Romeo helped make sure all the kids evacuated, and helped other people too. He got very stubborn when people tried to stop him or treated him like a baby.
He finally snapped at Elian when he tried to make Romeo go and hide.
"I'm sorry Elian, just people keep telling me I'm not big enough and not magic or powerful so I shouldn't fight but these," he waved his arms, "Are all my friends and I've been here even longer than I was in Milano and though it's scary it's my home and I can't just hide and do nothing! I can't!"
Elian understood and also told him that Romeo's name meant pilgrimage, to not be contained in one place for long. He finally got down to the ground floor but then couldn't find Ken so went back to look for him. The administrators got rid of the monsters. New floors were added. Romeo helped fix things since everything was wrecked. He helped Gimli tidy up the workshop. He helped rescue a pigeon for Roland and they went to look for William, who had disappeared.
September Year Two
Ken announced a training session for all the under fourteen year olds of the tower. Romeo attended. Ken told him that his persona had changed and Romeo met his new persona. They trained in spears.
Later in September Romeo woke up in a body that was not his. He had been switched with Itachi. This was very strange, especially as as the month went on his memories began blurring with Itachi's until he could not be sure which things had happened to him and which things were part of Itachi. However after being a deer and a moose and a moose bug hybrid and a rocking horse being another human was not all that weird and Romeo mostly took it in his stride.
He met actual Itachi in Romeo's own body and they agreed that they needed to find a way to fix things. Lots of other people were swapped as well. Romeo spoke to Jason over the network who told him that it was an experiment to see how long it took for their bodies to break down due to the stress. Romeo told him he was bad and that he hated him.
He spoke to Enoch and discussed how they had to make Jason lose, so he would no longer find torturing them fun. Some smart people (who weren't Romeo) managed to find a way to get everyone back to normal. By this point all the memories of all the bad things Itachi had done were getting too much, but Romeo was able to be swapped back to normal.
Though the memories faded- he no longer got them mixed up with his own, they are still there like a story he once read. Itachi came to find him and they spoke, Romeo asked if Itachi was a good person and learned that it was all way more complicated than Romeo could really understand. Itachi told him though that he didn't want to be a bad person, and Romeo thought that was enough to make him not one.
They had a party to celebrate. It was Sayaka's birthday and Romeo got her an apple.
Romeo's life changed once again as he travelled home from Milano. He had been back at home only a few days when he woke up in a strange bed, dressed in a white skin tight suit and a strange orange liquid filled collar around his neck. There were three strange adults in the room, all had just woke up there as well and there was a note. You're world has been destroyed, I saved you. Let's all be happy here.
It soon came apparant that no one knew what was going on. Had they been kidnapped? Had the world really ended? The tower was five floors high, a cafeteria, an infirmary, a library and a viewing station as well as a dormitory floor. Romeo kept his spirits up as much as he could and began exploring, it was in the first few days that he met Molly. A girl who would become an important friend. On the day they met they mostly agued about dinosaurs and read books and Romeo learned all about superheroes.
He also got very quickly used to the idea of different worlds, the fact that everyone spoke about things that he had no clue about, that magic and other storybook things exist and that some people were actually countries. He got a crash course in using computers as well, though he never particularly had enough patience to sit and use one for long.
A week or two into their stay in the tower they met the administrators; Riki, Dax, Jason and Zo the last of whom seemed a child not much older than Romeo. Romeo was given a job as a janitor, all the jobs in the tower were dangerous and the chemicals made him ill.
But all in all he learned a lot and made many friends. Then as the end of the month drew near some people disappeared... Their trunks emptied, no sign of them...
July Year One
On the 1st July the residents awoke to more floors! A high tech room, an indoor forest, a swimming pool and a maze. As well as a new dorm floor. What was strange and interesting was that the new floors appeared in between the viewing platform and the first dorm level. Odd things happened if they lingered on the new floors too long. But it didn't stop Romeo from exploring.
All the while dressed as a superhero called the Bird Prince because of Molly's influence! It is during this exploration that he met Ienzo, an eight year old who became another Important Person in Romeo's life. He was also convinced by the Doctor that the world hadn't ended and that the administrators were bad people who had lied to them. The maze traumatised him.
More people disappeared though, and they got more interesting food. It was Molly who came up with the horrifying theory that maybe they were eating people. She was reassured by adults but her and Romeo decided they needed to make a superhero team to beat the baddies and save everyone. Romeo believed her theory though and wouldn't eat for a few days, fearing he had eaten Fletcher who was one of his new friends who had disappeared. He was comforted and fed pancakes by Canada.
Near the end of the month Spain spent some time in her dead world (ooc: one of the hiatus options), she was upset when she returned and told Romeo about it. He realised that the worlds maybe really were gone and everyone he knew was dead and finally everything got to much for him and he cried... "But it was all too big, everyone he had ever met before he came here was gone forever and he would never see them again, he was stuck in this tower where people disappeared and probably end up served as meals."
After his small breakdown he decided that if the worlds were gone then the tower was a new world and they had to make sure everyone in it was safe and happy. He made it an oath to Spain, the first oath he ever made to an adult.
August Year One
At the beginning of August Molly and Romeo and some other likely superhero types decided to put to rest the question of if they are eating people once and for all and led an excursion into the walk in freezer. This got a bit sidetracked due to Romeo's general amazement at a thing so cold that ice grew in it. They found no people but still decided that the best course of action was to not eat meat.
Because everyone was sad because of people disappearing Zo decided to try and bring them all back. But it all backfired, the power went out and weird phantoms appeared. The dark was scary and Romeo did his best to avoid phantoms. It was an attempt that eventually failed though as he came across a phantom cat and suffered his first death.
However perhaps luckily for Romeo it happened quickly and when he woke up the next morning in his bed the last conclusion he would have came to was that he had died, he just put it down to strange things happening.
The phantoms were fixed, more floors got added including an outside floor, a cathedral, an aquarium and a planetarium where you could sit and watch endless worlds die.
Romeo spent the rest of the month exploring more and building a tree house in the forest. He found Nepeta who had previously gone missing, but she couldn't remember who he was. This led to him making his first ever network post announcing this new piece of information.
He ended the month with trying to make a cake for his friends, it ended hot cake mix exploding everywhere but he did make a lasting friendship with France out of it and she taught him how to bake properly. He used the new suggestion box to ask for rum so they could make lost bread. He handed out cake to his friends
He met Castial who was an angel and who told him that the world was not destroyed, so he changed his mind on that point. He also assured him that heaven was not destroyed and Romeo and Spain spoke in the cathedral about if God could still hear them, Spain reassured Romeo that he could.
September Year One
The month started well with the addition of ice cream to the menu and Molly introduced Romeo to it immediately. A few days later the first of many many experiments began. Many residents awoke with a strange leash connecting their collar to another persons. Romeo was connected to Vriska and Germany. It was the start of a beautiful hate friendship with Vriska. He also learned that people liked eating colours and so made sure his network posts were red (because that tasted the best).
When the leashes disappeared Romeo received a note saying: Thank you for participating in part one of our experiment. And the tower grew again. Another library, a study room, a media room, a bottomless pit and a room that was empty apart from bloody handprints and screaming.
He spent most of the rest of September helping new people. And spent his last few days as a mostly untraumatised child...
October Year One
Overnight Romeo, France (male), Milagro, Ψiioniic, Germany, Kanaya, Romana and Dean were taken by retrieval units, knocked out if they tried to fight and placed in a cell complex. He tried to keep his spirits up, talking about the blue skies of Italy with Romana, he even wondered with Kanaya if they were going to be sent back home, though deep down he didn't really believe that.
The next day he was taken away from his cell, the first to be taken.. He was taken by retrieval units and modified, his body becoming a hybrid of human and deer. They left him to 'recover' from his surgery.
"I'm sorry Alfredo," he whispered quietly, "I tried so hard, but I think the bad people won.
I couldn't follow your dreams for you." Tears ran steadily down his face, "The worlds are gone, Bianca probably died, I hope she is with you in heaven... There aren't even any blue skies here..."
A moment passed as his sobbing continued, "What do you do when you can't keep your spirits up..." He couldn't lift his arm, or leg, he didn't even want to think about it. He couldn't keep his spirits up if he didn't even have hands to punch the air with. "What do you do..." He fell silent as sleep finally took him away from the horror.
He was taken back to the cells the next day, he shouted that they were bad people as they took France away, he couldn't walk on his new legs, his antlers were heavy and was in shock. He thought it was a punishment for something he had done- the truth that they had done it just because they could was something so big that it took Romeo some years to come to terms with it.
Milagro told him that she was a superhero from the stars and she would stop the bad people. She fought when they took her but they still hurt her and experimented on her. On all of them.
Romeo became close with Psiioniic because they shared the same dream, of creating a free world. Though Psiioniic had long lost the battle in his world. They made a vow to find a world that wasn't destroyed and make a place with no bad people or slavery.
They were in the cells a week until they had all been modified and then they were let out into the tower itself. The rest of the tower were also being experimented on, their feelings were being modified, in groups of obedience, sensory, sloth and paranoia.
Obviously everyone was horrified, Ienzo was upset and Romeo tried to calm him down, Ienzo tried to help Romeo to walk again, Romeo got quite upset when he thought that Ienzo was scared of him and didn't want to be his friend anymore.
He found Molly, or rather Molly found him. She had been looking after Piccolo who had escaped when Romeo was taken. She encouraged him to talk about what had happened. She said she would go beat up the bad people and Romeo got scared that she would be hurt. They made a vow of eternal friendship.
Ventus leant him his hoverboard until he learned to walk properly so he could get around. France (the female one) also spoke to him about what had happened and Romeo realised that the deer had probably died and felt bad about that.
He tried to get back to normal, or as normal as life was. It was hard when he was a deer, he spent a lot of time crashing Ven's hoverboard and accidentally terrifying people. But he made sure to keep his spirits up and help his friends do the same, even though their feelings were being played with more and more.
Having decided that the animals, even the scary ones, were as trapped as the people Romeo did venture forth to try and tell them that everything was going to be alright, and got chased away. He also tried to help some of the people who were halucinating and met some new people. He also helped Kanaya and Dean, when their spirits were low.
Eventually the experiment came to a crux with all those whose feelings were effected having an urge to kill those that had been modified. He woke up to America, his roommate, trying to kill him. Romano who had not been effected fought America to protect Romeo and Romeo escaped. He soon learned that many people in the tower wanted to kill him. And soon found refuge with Psiioniic, who was also hiding from his friends.
They promised to protect each other. He also found Eiji who was not effected and acted as a bodyguard.
Then Molly found them. She was effected and she attacked them. Romeo didn't want to fight her because she was his best friend., Romeo shouted at her and tried to get her to stop. She knocked Eiji out. Romeo made a last ditch attempt to remind her of their vow. She wouldn't stop. So he died for the second time and this time he definitely realised it.
November Year One
Romeo woke up human, with a reward in his room. A puppet theatre. And a new roommate, Lloyd had disappeared and the Protoman was there in his place. He found Psiioniic and agreed to join Signless' rebellion. He became allies with Milagro and they vowed that no one would get hurt again. He tackle hugged Ienzo just because he could.
Coming back from death did make him doubt that God could really reach them in the tower though, because death should lead to heaven. He recieved the rum he had asked for and he and France made lost bread. He mostly worked on being braver in order to stop the bad people. He tried to adopt Ienzo's unversed, Ienzo's reward for the experiment, but it kept returning to Ienzo. He decided to make puppets for his theatre and finally faced Molly.
He promised her that he would remain her friend no matter how many times the bad people made her hurt him.
"We're gonna stick together and show the baddies that they don't scare us and they can't ever make us not be friends. And then we are going to beat them, and teach them what happens when they try and turn us against each other!"
Later that month he had his first proper encounter with a double of someone else from the tower. It went as ridiculously as could be expected and he spent a while thinking Ven no longer wanted to be his friend or had lost all his memories. As he learned about more worlds he learned there were worlds out there where children were not sold but could go to school and be free under the blue sky just like Alfredo's dream. It gave him hope.
Nearing the end of the month there was a glitch on the network and corrupted creepy files began being shown and heard. One of the audio pieces kept replaying help me, help me at Romeo and Molly and they tried to figure out how to help the voice, and how to stop it being trapped.
Things calmed a little over the next few days and Molly threw a party. Charles told him he should dance with Molly and so dancing happened.
The very next day Romeo met the Grand Highblood and annoyed him so much with his cheerfulness that the troll killed him. One day after that a message appeared on the network saying thank you for your patience, I have taken control of the tower, it was difficult but that's okay, I'll start sending people home in an hour, you should say goodbyes before then. Romeo and Molly said their goodbyes and prepared to leave.
Of course it was a trick. Romeo arrived in a world where his brothers barely acknowledged him, his mum was dead and his dad was dunk and sold him back to Luini because he was never his kid anyways. He and Molly managed to break out of the illusionary worlds and escape. It was revealed that the message had come from someone called Ruana and that the worlds had been created from their own minds.
December Year One
Once he was back he continued helping his friends and making new ones. Molly educated him on modern Christmas. He found an injured Grand Highblood and tried to help him get to the infirmary, not caring that the troll had killed him less than a month before.
At the end of the month the network showed Zo being punished for his attempts at saving the entire multiverse and bringing in phantoms. He was attached to some kind of machine, a hand stretched towards him and the room exploded.
All over the tower monsters began to flood in.
January Year One
All the tower shrank to just one floor whilst repairs happened, the residents and the monsters were all stuck in the one room and had to fight to survive. Romeo fought with Ienzo and Molly... or more accurately Molly fought and Romeo provided moral support.
Eventually they blacked out and awoke in their beds in a once again larger tower. With monsters. Monsters everywhere. The tower had gotten a lot more dangerous. It got cold, very cold. Romeo and Molly explored the new floors, new people came and Romeo befriended them.
Then near the end of the month Romeo couldn't find Molly. He looked for her and posted on the network asking where she was. He searched every floor with Ienzo but it turned out she had disappeared from the tower and he was heartbroken. He had a feelings Jam with Psiioniic, important as it was the first time Romeo first properly took his feelings, looked at them and spoke about them rather than pushing them away to keep his spirits up. Psiioniic also told him something that he kept with him all the rest of his time in the tower and beyond. He may be small and have no powers but he has a great ability to make friends, and those friends are big and some have powers. His power is the ability to make those friends and help them and to move people to help others.
Just over a week later he met a giant man called Fawkes who was making weapons and asked if he could teach him how to make a knife. He made a shiv, which was his weapon of choice for the next two and half years. A teddy bear also appeared on his trunk with a note saying he had been infected and had to play two games the next month to cure himself. Romeo called the bear Alfredo and looked after it.
February Year One
The first game was the Midnight Game, where residents were in groups in empty dorm corridors and they had to complete a ritual to escape. Romeo's group did so. Romeo mostly worked with Vriska (a different Vriska than the one he already knew) and it was yet another wonderful hate friendship.
Mostly unscathed Romeo returned to the tower proper and learned that he had a new roommate. Ghirahim- they got off to a rocky start when he told Romeo that he was a demon, and Romeo lectured him about being good. It ended with Ghirahim deporting Romeo down to the floor of blood and screaming and Romeo deciding that Ghirahim was a good person deep down.
Romeo continued on his quest to learn to fight the bad people and sought out teachers from around the tower. Franken Stein taught him how to use his opponents' weaknesses against them and fight hand to hand. Ven tried to teach him magic but it didn't really stick and he finally met Signless, Psiioniic's hero. He vowed to help Signless beat the bad people. Signless taught him how to fight with a weapon.
A little while later Ghirahim killed one of the Links and announced it so on the network. Romeo decided to move out of his room for a bit, but only for a couple of days because residents got sick if they didn't sleep in their own bed.
Then about half way through the month a temporary antidote to the infection appeared in the way of chocolates. However eating the chocolates affected their minds, leading them to fall jealously and bitterly in love with the next person they saw or fall in love with the monsters, or other potentially deadly effects.
Romeo ate a chocolate and started stalking L, who unfortunately had fallen in love with the monsters of the tower. This led to Romeo getting trapped by monsters and killed.
Then a few days later Molly returned! The reunion was heartfelt, Romeo summed up the last month.
No, well me and Ienzo got lost in the woods looking for you, and I got killed by monsters and we had to go round a tower that was like this but empty and there was a scary monster called Midnight Man chasing after us and trying to blow our candles out and you can't eat chocolate because it makes you want to do bad things like hurt people or make friends with monsters. Oh and there's a really mean demon living in my room, he killed someone and put blood everywhere so can I sleep in your room?
He got yet another roommate, Gamzee. He Gamzee and Ghirahim 'bonded', by which I mean the conversation shifted from lectures of good and evil to why Ghirahim wore makeup like a noble lady. To finally Ghirahim deciding that both Romeo and Gamzee needed an introduction to baths. So Romeo learned about showers, and miracles. Miracle showers and he got new clothes off Ghirahim. Who it turned out was clearly a good person after all.
Then on the last day of the month those with bears were taken to a strange apartment complex and instructed to play Hitori Kakurenbo, another ritual game this time hide and seak with murderous teddy bears.
They each had a communication device where they had to make a video or audio recording every few hours. They got two chances, if they were caught they could run, if they were caught again they either had to betray someone else or were killed. Most of the deaths were recorded by the communication devices.
So Romeo spent a lot of time hiding under a bed with Molly and John, helpless as his friends died in various gruesome ways. He also spent a lot of time whispering to France and trying to help Vriska keep her spirits up.
Ten hours in Molly was killed. In hour thirteen Vriska betrayed Romeo and John and they got eaten by spiders.
March Year One
Hitori Kakurenbo was notable as the first huge mass tower awful thing, and also because there were a lot of new people in the tower who hadn't been there in October. So there were a lot of very sad very scared people. Romeo was one of them but he also knew that they couldn't give up. He didn't have the shock of this being the first time he had been hurt horribly by the administrators, it was far from his first death. They had been hurt before and would be hurt again and just sitting around crying would not help stop the bad people. So he went on a mission to try and help everyone who was upset.
Of course it will be alright because we will make it alright okay! If we are sad and scared then that's what the bad people want and they will have won. We gotta keep going no matter how many times we die, and no matter what they do to us because they are big bullies and want us to be sad. They like it when we cry so we can't cry we just got to get up and keep living!
He saw this very much like when Alfredo died, an awful thing had happened but they had to keep going. So just like the black brothers had punched him to the floor so he could stand up again he tried to help everyone rise to their feet.
A few weeks into the month though some peoples collars changed, the colour was different and they began to feel strange and their powers went out of control. Romeo helped people as best he could, he wasn't affected himself. However at one point whilst trying to help Nanime he got memory reverted to being in Milano, right back when he was first sold to Rossi and had been accused of theft. It was only for a very short amount of time.
His helping people went a bit awry when he tried to help Minami and got killed by her out of control Persona. Molly disappeared again.
He also continued meeting new people. One of those people was Ken, a boy who was the same age as him and would become one of his best friends.
At the end of the month Willow hoasted a Friendship Affirmation party which Romeo attended.
April Year One
The month started with pranks. Pranks from the administrators that was, and so many were deadly. Luckily Romeo got away with being stained multicoloured by the swimming pool.
As part of his plan to help everyone he decided to make a group for all the children of the tower to work together and help each other. Vriska said it was a stupid idea and Ken wasn't sure if he could trust them and called Romeo too innocent to set up such a group. But there were people that wanted to join.
It was John's birthday and Romeo made him cookies, John told him about how cake was evil (but only cake from boxes).
A post appeared on the network asking what they were afraid of, they were compelled to answer it.
i guess that i am scared that the bad people are actually right. that the world really did end and everyone is dead. if it did end then this must be hell because heaven is really nice and alfredo is there. i guess that means i was bad... i'm scared that my friends will be hurt and that we will never ever escape, hell is meant to last forever isn't it? that all my friends here will be hurt again and again and i wont be able to stop it happening, because the bad people can do whatever they want to us.
i guess i'm scared that my friends from my world would come here, if it is hell. because they are all really nice and so should go to heaven and be with alfredo.
Ienzo disappeared around this time but Spain came back (without memories) and Shotaru returned with memories. At the end of the month Dax went on the network to tell them that they had a rota for being in charge of the tower, that it was Jason's turn next and to be careful
May Year One
People were rounded up and put in a labyrinth to fight to the death. Those that were not taken could watch on the network and could also help their friends by sponsoring them food, drinks, powers or warnings of other people coming. Romeo sponsored a lot of people to try and help everyone. The price for this was nightmares. Romeo had nightmares for the entirety of May, from vivid nightmares of his friends from home being tortured in the tower to seeing the world end, to learning it was his own fault. He knew that it was the bad people trying to hurt him for him helping his friends though and so he tried to keep his spirits up.
Zelda organised a group in the first few days to try and rescue them all, Romeo wanted to help but she wouldn't let him, saying he was a child and would jepordise the mission. Romeo was upset because his friends were getting hurt but she talked him into helping from the outside, watching so that he could communicate where people were.
Of course there was no way to do so, but it did mean that Romeo ended up seeing it all, all his friends dying and all their punishments- those that died were given punishments for the remainder of the event. The nightmares made everyone a little crazy, Gamzee tried to kill Ghirahim, Romeo fought him off, Ghirahim beat him up and Gamzee went on a murder spree, that made Romeo scared.
Jason posted to the network and opened the floor to questions. Romeo had some and he learned that people disappearing was by accident not design, those that came back without memories were actually identical seeming copies from other worlds. When people disappeared they went back to their dead world. As far as anyone knew they still wouldn't die. Gandalf warned him that Jason might be lying about a lot of things.Romeo wasn't sure whether to believe him or not but they were more answers than he had had before.
He spoke to Gandalf and explained about what he knew about Zo- which was not much. Except that he was concerned because Zo seemed young and though his bosses were the bad people that might not mean Zo was bad too... after all he had tried to bring everyone from home to save them and been punished for it. He promised to help Gandalf look after everyone.
He and Gamzee made friends again- or more Romeo apologised for fighting him and letting Ghirahim hurt him and played with Play-doh. There were rumours of a giant spider. Then whilst exploring he got attacked and killed by said giant spider and posted to the network when he came back that the rumours were true. And announced the first meeting of the bitty brigade. Many people told him to not be so blaze about being murdered. But it was far from his most traumatic death and it was his seventh death, it had lost it's sting.
The first meeting of the Bitty brigade went well, mostly them all meeting each other and failing to decide on a name for themselves or a leader, or any rules.
He had to deal with a France who was breaking down, he tried his best but found it hard when she wouldn't listen to him. He found more people new and returned. Roland trained him more in knife fighting.
A leaked network post showed the administrators fighting amongst themselves. Zo was getting upset at their arguing. So May turned into June Romeo's first year ended and he turned twelve.
June Year Two
The arguing between administrators turned into proper fighting. They each took a group and took part in challenges posed by Ruana, there were points for each challenge and the losing group of each challenge had to vote on someone in their group to die. The winning group's leader would be the leader of the tower.
Romeo was in Jason's group. People began being experimented on. Romeo tried to help people, because it had happened to him before, but it was hard when everyone was so sad and scared, when he was sad and scared. He was turned into a six legged moose type creature with antlers and three eyes.
Ken had been experimented on too and Romeo tried to stay strong for him, during their time in the cells Ken warmed to Romeo and they became friends.
At the end of the week Ruana announced winners and losers, each group had lost one and so votes were made for people to die. Most people refused to vote and plans were made to make sure that no matter what Jason did not win.
The deaths were announced, Ven was killed painlessly and efficiently by Dax. Suzaku was killed by exploding by Riki. England was killed by vivisection by Jason. Romeo was horrified and Ken came over to him and covered his eyes for him as Romeo had no hands. Romeo told him that he was wrong, that Ken should stab Jason in the face.
The second week there were additional challenges, like balancing beams. Romeo's second surgery included adding insctoid legs onto him so he could balance better. During this surgery (where he was awake but felt no pain) he told Jason that he was an evil person and would go to hell, that he would know how bad it was and how much he was hurting them and that hell lasted forever.
This was the month where Romeo learned to hate, not just be angry at the bad people who had stole them from their homes and tortured them, but to hate Jason and want him gone.
Somehow despite all their trying Jason didn't lost, he was only a point away from Dax at the end of the week. Romeo was angry because Jason was cheating. A large group of Riki's pod were killed for losing. Ken tried to attack Jason. Also one of the magical girls crushed her soul gem, Ruana was furious.
The challenge in week three was endurance, their cells got worse, monsters tried to claw their way in and they got no food. Romeo spent a lot of time talking in thin air, in the general belief that Jason could hear everything that went on. Telling him that he was a coward and a cheater and everyone else was braver than him.
Jason wasn't seen until the end of the week, he had stitches and blood on him. He was in a very bad mood, he attached them all to each other with tentacle type things until they were a massive tentacle blob thing.
Then it was time for the results. Jason had been disqualified, Dax was considered to not have given his group enough to endure and so Riki won. He would be in charge. For a month. Yes the entire thing had been to rule the tower for one month. Ruana announced that because they had been neglecting the tower itself the residents had been misbehaving. So Jason, Dax and Riki were going back to sort that out and she would be in charge of all the pods for the next week.
To make it all worse it was Ken's birthday, Romeo tried to comfort him as much as he could. He promised him cake when they got back to the tower proper, because Jason should not be allowed to ruin anyone's birthday.
During the fourth week Ruana made Jin do the surgeries. Romeo's consciousness was put into that of a rocking horse. During a conversation with Yu Romeo was told that anyone had the potential to be a hero, they just had to be brave. It didn't matter if they had powers or not. At the end of the week they had a wrap party, Romeo was still a rocking horse. So didn't do much.
Then they were returned to the tower, they got in an elevator and blacked out. However instead of waking up in the tower Romeo woke up on his destroyed world.
July Year Two
Romeo spent twenty days on his dead world, the only person alive, everything dead. Even the stars. The bad people had been right all along. It was near the end of the month that he finally retured to the tower. He found Piccolo who had been staying with Ken, checked on all his friends. He had been given Moby Dick as a gift off Zo for the event and he discovered that his puppet theatre had been destroyed. Ryoji helped him fix it.
The whole tower had a meeting to share information and try and work out how to escape. Romeo went and listened and gave information when he had it. At the very end of the month some people fell asleep and couldn't be woken up. Ken was one of them.
August Year Two
The sleeping people woke up. The second meeting of Bitties happened, Romeo finally made Ken his birthday cake. More people came this time and they nominated Leaders. Ken nominated Sayaka, Romeo nominated Ken and Sayaka nominated Romeo. Ken also suggested they all trained each other in weapons.
Then a space whale hit the tower. Something large and full of monsters hit the upper levels, everyone had to evacuate downwards as floors were destroyed and monsters destroyed floors. Romeo helped make sure all the kids evacuated, and helped other people too. He got very stubborn when people tried to stop him or treated him like a baby.
He finally snapped at Elian when he tried to make Romeo go and hide.
"I'm sorry Elian, just people keep telling me I'm not big enough and not magic or powerful so I shouldn't fight but these," he waved his arms, "Are all my friends and I've been here even longer than I was in Milano and though it's scary it's my home and I can't just hide and do nothing! I can't!"
Elian understood and also told him that Romeo's name meant pilgrimage, to not be contained in one place for long. He finally got down to the ground floor but then couldn't find Ken so went back to look for him. The administrators got rid of the monsters. New floors were added. Romeo helped fix things since everything was wrecked. He helped Gimli tidy up the workshop. He helped rescue a pigeon for Roland and they went to look for William, who had disappeared.
September Year Two
Ken announced a training session for all the under fourteen year olds of the tower. Romeo attended. Ken told him that his persona had changed and Romeo met his new persona. They trained in spears.
Later in September Romeo woke up in a body that was not his. He had been switched with Itachi. This was very strange, especially as as the month went on his memories began blurring with Itachi's until he could not be sure which things had happened to him and which things were part of Itachi. However after being a deer and a moose and a moose bug hybrid and a rocking horse being another human was not all that weird and Romeo mostly took it in his stride.
He met actual Itachi in Romeo's own body and they agreed that they needed to find a way to fix things. Lots of other people were swapped as well. Romeo spoke to Jason over the network who told him that it was an experiment to see how long it took for their bodies to break down due to the stress. Romeo told him he was bad and that he hated him.
He spoke to Enoch and discussed how they had to make Jason lose, so he would no longer find torturing them fun. Some smart people (who weren't Romeo) managed to find a way to get everyone back to normal. By this point all the memories of all the bad things Itachi had done were getting too much, but Romeo was able to be swapped back to normal.
Though the memories faded- he no longer got them mixed up with his own, they are still there like a story he once read. Itachi came to find him and they spoke, Romeo asked if Itachi was a good person and learned that it was all way more complicated than Romeo could really understand. Itachi told him though that he didn't want to be a bad person, and Romeo thought that was enough to make him not one.
They had a party to celebrate. It was Sayaka's birthday and Romeo got her an apple.
CR A-E
Date: 2016-06-28 11:25 am (UTC)Alphonse Elric: They met in the forest after Romeo tried to talk to the animals and got chased. He is very kind and they spoke about how the bad people would be brought to justice. When Edward tried to kill Romeo Al stopped him, Romeo is thankful to him. He is sad to hear he is gone.
Amalia Sheran Sharm: Elian's friend, Romeo is going to make her a cake.
America (the baby one): Romeo met him in the hallways, he was new and called America though he was nicer than the America who used to be his roommate. He told him to be careful of the monsters and America said he could fight them. He screamed and screamed and screamed when England died. In October of year two Romeo took him to a bitty meeting. America was dressed in a suit of armour. They later met when they had both died and came back as their costumes.
America (female): They sort of met, at least she was asleep and Piccolo decided to crawl on her and Romeo is trying to get him off and she wont wake up! He has learned from Canada that she disappeared
America (male): One of his roomates, he is loud and a little scary. However after Romeo was experimented on he was nice to him and brought him food because Romeo couldn't walk. Even though he is still scary Romeo knows he is definitely a good person! He then tried to kill Romeo and was stopped by Romano, Romeo forgave him though because he knew the bad people in the tower had made him do it.
Amy Pond: They met while Romeo was a horror deer and spoke about the Doctor and how amazing and brave he was. Amy is the Doctors best friend so she is obviously a good person!
Ankh: A rude man who Romeo met at Molly's party, he had dropped his punch and called Romeo a pipsqueak. He wasn't very nice and had a scary arm and grabbed Romeo.
Anya Alstreim: She took a picture of him and sort of explained what a camera was. Sort of. She told him the pictures were for her memories because hers were kept in a computer and not in her head like everyone else's.
Aradia Medigo: She was a nice troll who was going to join the brother and sisterhood of the children of Animus. She was six sweeps old but she disappeared before the first meeting.
Aragorn: He was in Jason's pod.
Basilisk (Scott): They met, when Romeo wasn't feeling well and Scott offered to get him food. He likes him and thinks he's a kind person! He disappeared also
Beck: A woman who Romeo met in the cafeteria, she was scared and Romeo tried to keep her spirits up. When he returned from being experimented on though she had dissappeared.
Belarus: A lady Romeo met in the meadow, he tried to make her welcome. She had a knife and was a little bit scary.
Big Boss: He was hiding under a cardboard box in the library.
Cain Knightlord: A man who knocked on Romeo's door because he was gathering information. He asked about Romeo's puppet theatre and then about Bianca and Doctor Casella. He also wanted to know if Romeo had any friends in the tower, and met Piccolo. He also wanted to know how long Romeo had been there and how many people there had been. Romeo couldn't remember though. He did give him some names of people who had been there though. He is a good persona and wants to beat the bad people.
Canada: She is really nice, so is her polar bear! They got on well though Romeo doesn't understand really how people can be countries, so he will call her Madeline. She helped him when he was sick and brought him some water. He thinks her polar bear is magic because it spoke to him! And him and Canada went swimming together. Canada made pancakes and he likes talking to her. He is very sad when she disapears.
Castiel: He is a real life Angel! Romeo is quite awed even if he does say strange things that Romeo doesn't understand!
Charles Xavier: They met in the cafeteria when Romeo was a horror deer. Charles helped Romeo because it was difficult for him to eat. Charles is in a wheelchair and explained to Romeo about nerves and how they could get damaged, and also cars. They met again at Molly's party and Charles didn't recognize him at first. He told her he had to dance with Molly because that's what best friends did. Romeo found him in the meadow crying and was scared because adults don't cry!
Chidori Yoshino: They met in the coridoors while Romeo was a horror deer. He sponsored her for a proper meal in the labyrinth on days one and six. She was in Jason's pod.
Chihiro Fujisaki: She was running away from bullfairies, Romeo helped her at first thinking there was a big monster coming and later explained that they were not scary and were hurt. They decided to help them and went to make bullfairy wheelchairs.
Ciel Phantomhive: They met on the space floor. He got crushed to death by Riki in the pod event.
Cloud Strife: He spoke to Romeo after Romeo got eaten by the giant spider. He asked Romeo to make sure no one who couldn't fight went near that floor.
Dave Strider: He was in Jason's pod. He had been turned into a clockwork thing and was punching the wall to see if he could feel pain. Romeo thought that his nerves had been stolen and promised to beat Jason and get them back for him.
He came to the second bitty meeting and Romeo was glad. He gave him ice cream and they thought about ways to beat the bad people.
David Lalonde: They met briefly.
Dawn: They met and got along okay, Romeo learned about
magic animalsPokemon. She's disappeared though, Romeo doesn't know where she's gone.Dawn Summers: A girl Romeo met when she first woke up, she was looking for her sister Buffy. Romeo had never met anyone called Buffy before. He showed Dawn where the computers were so she could ask on them and then went to look on all the doors. There was no Buffy though. But then she said that the world could have ended and this could be another dimension. It was the first decent argument for the worlds really being gone Romeo had heard and it scared him. She also said that if many people from the same worlds were coming at different times there might be a holding area.
He spoke to her next during the collar swap, she was scared and he told her to be wary of the infirmary workers. She went to see if she could get her collar fixed.
Dax: One of the bad control people, but the nicest one. He is still a bad person though because he lets bad things happen and doesn't stop Jason.
Dean Winchester: One of Romeo's fellow captives, he was experimented on as well and then Lloyd was mean to him so Romeo protected him. When they were back in the tower Romeo went to check up on him every day because he couldn't really go anywhere. He took him stories to read to him because they could work together, Dean turning the pages and Romeo reading. He was very very sad to hear he had gone.
Deneb: He spoke to John during hide and seek.
The Doctor (eleventh): The awesome adult who told Romeo that his superhero costume was cool! He also told Romeo that the world definitely didn't end and he is going to save them all. He explored the maze with Romeo, Molly, Ienzo and Napeta. Then they had a conversation about custard and though Romeo doesn't really know what custard is he is going to find some for the doctor! He is very sad that he is gone.
He came back! And remembered Romeo (he totally didn't the Doctor lies). Romeo told him about all his adventures and the new friends he had made.
Donald Duck: Romeo sponsored him for a proper meal on day three of the labyrinth because he is a talking duck. Then he saw him die.
Echidna Hackett: A very very ethusiastic girl Romeo met on floor eleven. She likes adventures and exploring! She didn't believe Romeo about the bad people but she is very nice and Romeo and her went to explore! She told him about Romeo and Juliet and it sounded like a really sad story. She had been to school and it sounded really fun and she got to study the stars. She likes werewolves better than dragons but wanted to play a game with dragons in it. Romeo said they could look in the media room because it was a game you had to play on a machine and not a running around game. Her friend Sam wants to be a doctor just like Bianca. She is a very nice person and doesn't need much help keeping her spirits up!
Later she asked who wanted to play table top roleplay. Romeo said he wanted to because it looked fun but didn't really understand. Echidna tried to explain, Romeo started to make a character and made a puppet of them.
In hide and seek they spoke and hoped it wouldn't be much longer. He told her she could meet Molly when they got out because she already knew John and Molly was awesome.
Edward Elric: He tried to strangle Romeo to death in the event, he was stopped by Al. Romeo forgives him though because he knows the bad people are to blame.
Eikichi Mishina: He got crushed to death in the pod event by Riki.
Eiji Hino: Romeo met him during the power cut when he was being monstorous, Romeo managed to talk him down and later met him again. He has decided he needs to help Eiji so will keep his eye on him and help him when he can! After Romeo was experimented on he see's Eiji again and learns that he has the monster under control now. Eiji wants to go and fight those that hurt Romeo and Romeo is worried he will get hurt too.
When everyone was trying to kill Romeo Eiji protected him and finally had to fight Molly, he was defeated and the monster came out. Romeo knows he is a hero though and feels bad that he was hurt whilst protecting Romeo.
Later in the cafeteria Eiji spilt hot liquid on his hand and it didn't hurt, Romeo thought it might be the nerves but then his hand turned into a monster. They wondered if it was something the bad people had done but Romeo thought they'd know if it was because the bad people liked them to be scared.
Elian Zigmarl: A boy who came to the second bitty meeting. Romeo gave him an apple and Elian gave him shoes and clothes because Romeo's were too small for him. Romeo was really surprised and happy. Elian is a really good person, he promised to do anything for him if he needed help, or make him cakes. Elian said he would like a cake for his friend but had to check what flavour was her favourite.
Romeo found him during the whale attack, and they both escaped. Elian tried to make Romeo stay in the cafeteria but Romeo hadn't found everyone yet. He told him he would go fight instead. Romeo shouted at him and told him that they were his friends and so was Elian and he didn't want any of them to die. He apologised for shouting; he was just upset because no one would let him help. It was his home and he wanted to protect him. Elian went with him and they fought together. Romeo swore to keep Elian safe. Later Elian went and grabbed some medicine and he and Romeo gave it out to injured people in the cafeteria to help their pain.
Elizabeth Middleford: They met on the space floor.
England: He was in Jason's pod. Then he got killed by Jason who cut him up and killed him and it was awful and one day Jason is going to pay!
Enoch: Romeo spoke to him when he was in Itachi's body and was trying to help work out how to make things better. He suggested asking Zo to help but Enoch said that they wouldn't be able to reach him without the other bad people knowing. They then talked about good and evil and how it was hard to make Jason stop hurting them. Enoch said it was like when bullies try and hurt you and if you ignore them they try harder but then eventually give up. So they had to not let the bad things get them down and keep their spirits up.
When Romeo was a superstrong antlered adult hater he attacked Enoch, who had been brought back as an angel.
Eridan Ampora (RDV AU): There was lots of him and it was really confusing. Romeo tried to talk to him on the computer. He was sad that some of them would die and thought it wasn't fair. Romeo decided he was a wizard and told him he would get good at his magic. But then Eridan said everything would work out, like God had decided what was going to happen. But they did agree that they had to stop the bad people.
Eridan Ampora (hemostuck AU): They met when Romeo was making puppets. They got off to a bad start because Eridan called Romeo names and Romeo told him that was not nice. Eridan told him nice people got killed first and Romeo told him that he'd rather be killed than be a bad person.
Romeo thinks he just wants to be bad, and is good really. They make scenery for a show, they decided on Moby Dick and talk about that, and then discussed the differences between their worlds and made puppets. Eridan told him that he was a pirate who lived on a Pirate Ship and they made plans for a pirate show as well.
Erik Lehnsherr: They were in the same group for the midnight man game.
Equius Zahhak (AU): Romeo sponsored him a warning of an incoming character on day eight of the Labyrinth event.
CR F-I
Date: 2016-06-28 11:31 am (UTC)Feferi Peixes: She was in Jason's pod she joined him in keeping their spirits up. Then they turned her into a monster and did something to her voice so she would hurt people if she spoke loudly. Romeo sat close to her cell so they could still talk. Then they put a monster in her brain and put a weird material over her. Romeo told her to stay strong and Feferi said it was hard. In week three he checked on her and she was keeping her spirits up.
She came to the second bitty meeting.
Fletcher Tringham: They met at breakfast, Fletcher was really nice and fed Piccolo cereal, even if he was a little bit scared. Romeo wants to be his friend. But he's disapeared and Romeo can't find him!
Fluttershy: They made friends and Romeo showed her the forest. He thinks she is really nice even if its a little strange to Romeo as he never met a flying talking pony before. She's gone now though
Fran Madaraki: She is a doctor and offered to help people, Romeo thought she was very nice for that.
France (female): She helped him when Romeo exploded the cake, she was really nice to him and taught him how to make cake. They made ice cream cake with chocolate frosting. He told her all about Alfredo and she made him steak. She also told him that he doesn't come from Italy after all but from Switzerland and taught him a little bit more about how the nations work. He requested some rum for her so she could make lost bread. After he was experimented on she was really angry at the bad people and Romeo was scared that she would be hurt. He also realised that the animals in the forest were prisoners too but she told him to learn to walk first before trying to do anything else.
Once Romeo got better he found her in the study. She was upset but she was happy to see him back to normal. She met Piccolo and he gave her the rum. She cried and Romeo worried that he had upset her but she said it wasn't his fault and they went to bake lost bread. He spoke to her during hide and seek. In hour three she told him to be careful and he told her to be too. In hour five she didn't speak and Romeo was really worried. In hour eight she told him to be really quiet and not even breathe loudly, then something was coming. In hour eleven she told him to run, but there were bears everywhere.
He didn't see her for a long time but when he did she was playing music. He hugged her and she told him she had been sick. She told him she should leave the fighting to adults and he told her he was almost twelve. She disappeared for a while but then came back and was really sad. She asked if he was a ghost and tried to go into the lake even though it was getting dark and the monsters were coming. She told Romeo to go to bed and Romeo said that Piccolo could stay with her and chase her nightmares away. She told him to go away but he wouldn't leave her.
They spoke again ages later on the network in October of year two. She suggested making jack o lanterns and told Romeo what they were. Later they made some.
France (male): One of the people who were experimented on at the same time as Romeo, he was very brave despite what the bad people did to him!
Frankin Stein (AU): Romeo asked her to train him in fighting, she taught him to fight with no weapons and how to use his size to his advantage. When she got stuck to the floor because of her powers he helped cut her free, she told him that she could sense peoples souls and that his soul was really determined. They sparred regularly until she disappeared, Romeo was sad that she had gone and added her name to the list of people he was fighting for.
Fujishiro Nageki: He spoke to Romeo after he was eaten by the giant spider. He couldn't fight too and Romeo told him that there were people who would help teach him. Romeo vowed to protect him and decided to do so even though Nageki didn't want him to. Romeo learned that he was not human, or hadn't been before the tower.
Gamzee Makara (OU): His roommate, Romeo met him when death made him go back to his room. He looks like the Grand Highblood and that made Romeo scared at first. But he was really nice even if he spoke really funny, he told Romeo he thought Ghirahim was probably nice but he was scared of him too. Then Ghirahim told them they were filthy and locked them in the shower until they got clean. Gamzee
talked a load of nonesensefilled Romeo's head with talk of miracles and managed to coax him into the shower. Glittery miracle showers and a new friend. They baked cookies for John though Gamzee tried to put slime in them...Romeo sponsored him for a proper meal on days four and six and healing on day five. Then watched him go crazy and kill everyone and got scared. When he came back Gamzee was angry and threw things around, then he shouted at Ghirahim who beat him up. Romeo felt bad about him being hurt but was also scared. He also felt guilty because he had hit into Gamzee to try and stop him from hurting anyone.
Romeo apologised to him, and on behalf of Ghirahim as well. Gamzee said lots of things that didn't make sense as usual and then they played with play doh. Their friendship was pretty much over though and Romeo really misses the silly clown troll, but he tries to be a good friend to new Gamzee as much as he can, even if he doesn't like Romeo anymore. He was in Jason's pod and was really angry and sad. Romeo tried to help him even though Gamzee just shouted at him.
They spoke on the network after Romeo came back from his world and Gamzee was really sad and angry, but when Romeo tried to help him Gamzee shouted at him, he was really mean and made Romeo sad, but Romeo still won't give up on being Gamzee's friend.
Gandalf: Romeo met him in the library. He told Romeo that they could learn about the tower from what wasn't in the library, Romeo wanted to know how they could work out what wasn't there when there was so much that was. He told Romeo they would beat the bad people in time. Romeo helped him when he wanted information about the tower and Zo. Romeo told him everything that he could remember. Gandalf told him that he didn't think the bad people could come back from the dead. He told Romeo not to listen to Jason.
He then told Romeo to be careful and stick to safe places, Romeo told him he was twelve and Gandalf told him that wasn't old enough and he had to run away from danger. Romeo promised reluctantly (and then went to the graveyard and got eaten by a giant spider three days later). Romeo didn't see him again until he spotted him letting off fireworks in the meadow, they were really pretty. At the fellowship meeting Romeo agreed that they should try and make an alliance with the bad people to beat the badder people. Gandalf disagreed and said they would betray them once they had power. Romeo said they should make them swear an oath. (And then went through with it, because since when does he listen to Gandalf). But he did support Gandalf's theory about the monsters.
When Romeo was in Itachi's body Gandalf was in his friends body. He told Romeo to find his own body, Romeo was worried that Piccolo might be switched but Gandalf thought he probably wasn't.
Ganondorf: Romeo sponsored him for a proper meal and healing on day eight of the labyrinth. Though he is a bad person, but he asked Romeo and Kidou to go and talk to the bad people group to see if they could work with the good people to beat the badder people.
Genda Koujirou: Spoke to Romeo after Romeo got eaten by the spider. Romeo told him to be careful.
Germany: He was one of the people Romeo was attached to during the leash event. He was also one of the people taken and experimented on, he was very brave as well. Romeo later saw him in the coridoors and tried to help him as much as he could.
Ghirahim: Romeo's new roommate, he likes combing his hair and his appearance a lot. At first Romeo thought he was a goblin but Ghirahim told him he was a demon, this made Romeo worried and he told him he wasn't allowed to eat anyone's souls. Ghirahim told him human souls were worthless and that made Romeo angry. He told him human's were brave and strong but Ghirahim kept laughing at him, he told him he wasn't scared of anything and Ghirahim teleported him to the room full of blood and screaming. The start of a beautiful friendship. When Ghirahim killed link Romeo moved out, though not for long.
When Gamzee moved into their room Ghirahim made them both get a shower, Romeo and Gamzee weren't happy. Ghirahim also made them clothes which Romeo wore because they were better than his old ones. In time Ghirahim became like a guardian to them even if he was a scary demon. When Gamzee came back all crazy Ghirahim beat him up and that made Romeo scared and sad.
Gimli: A really small man who was hunting through the ruins of the workshop. Romeo helped him and collected tools that he found under the rubble.
The Grand Highblood: A slightly scary troll who sometimes shouts and uses bad words. He called Romeo a wriggler even when Romeo told him he was five and a half sweeps! He wanted to know how Romeo knew troll time so Romeo told him. He told her that it was Kanaya and the Highblood was mean about her so Romeo told him to stop it. The Grand Highblood grabbed him and shook him before strangling him to death.
This didn't stop Romeo trying to help him later when he had been hurt after his fight with Summoner. He found him bleeding and tried to get him to the infirmary. He couldn't carry him though so tried to stop the bleeding, but it was too much to stop. He slipped into unconsciousness and Romeo thought he was dead. Romeo was really sad that he wasn't able to help him.
Somehow this act of kindness did stop the Grand Highblood killing him again the next time they met (truthfully he had decided it wasn't worth the effort) and they spoke about the ocean instead. He was in Jason's pod.
Grell Sutcliff: She was looking for Ronald, she was his boss. She said friends were boring and he told her that they were not and that she would be lonely without friends.
Hei: He was in Jason's pod. In the second week when they had to balance on the beams Romeo kept falling off and Hei told him to keep calm. They spoke again in the third week and Hei told him that they were being tested for endurance and keeping to the rules. Romeo didn't know the rules so they only way to break them was to rebel. But when they spoke about rebelling Hei was in pain.
Romeo saw him again when Hei fell asleep in the kitchens, Romeo tried to help him but he was too heavy and he was scared that Hei would get eaten by a monster. He spoke to him when he woke up over the network and learned that Yosuke had dragged him somewhere else and put alcohol on him and hadn't put him somewhere safe. Romeo was angry.
He next saw him in the kitchens where Hei was cooking meat, he had killed a shark which Romeo thought was very impressive.
Homura Akemi: They met, Homura was upset and Romeo tried to chear her up, but then she told him that heaven didn't exist and that made him sad. But he is still trying to make her feel better.
Ienzo: The quiet little kid who Romeo has adopted as his new little brother. They had an almost one sided conversation and Ienzo came to explore the maze! They met a few other times, Romeo gave him cake. He is going to ask the trolls some questions to help with Ienzo's research. He feels bad that he scared his friend by clasping hands with him. When Romeo is turned into a horror deer he see's Ienzo again and is sad because Ienzo seems scared of him. Ienzo helps him learn to walk again but when Romeo tells him he is a good friend Ienzo goes quiet so Romeo thinks that he doesn't want to be his friend anymore. This makes him very sad.
Their relationship got even worse when Romeo turned back to being human, he was so excited that he forgot about Ienzo's aversion to being touched and dive tackle hugged him. Followed by more hugs, and hand clasping. He also told Ienzo he had been worried about him and just generally confused him with his concern. Ienzo tried to convince Romeo he should think of himself before others. But it didn't really work.
Ienzo then got an
cute little baby thingunversed as his reward for the experiment. Romeo went to help him when he screamed and proceeded to make friends with it. He took it with him since Ienzo was so scared but it just kept going back to Ienzo because Romeo was too full of happy feelings for a creature that feeds off negative energy. When the tower got invaded by monsters and they were all stuck in one room Romeo, Ienzo and Molly fought together.Ienzo was the one to work out that Molly was gone, and even though he knew for certain he still came with Romeo to search every floor in the entire tower including the forest because Romeo couldn't give up hope that she was still there somewhere.
He tried to talk Romeo out of the bitty brigade but ended up agreeing to help (because he had no choice, Romeo would just drag him anyways) and gave Romeo the idea about changing meeting places each time. Sadly he disappeared before the first meeting.
Her Imperious Condescension: A very scary troll lady who Romeo almost crashed into on the hoverboard and who insisted he call her Madam. He thinks she is a noble lady of some kind but isn't sure if trolls have those. He saw her covered in blood and asked who she had hurt. She was very angry. She was in Jason's pod.
Iroh: A nice man that Romeo met briefly in the halls.
Issun: A little flea under a bowl.
Itachi Uchiha: A man who Romeo ended up in the body of, they met whilst in each others bodies, Romeo told him to look after Piccolo. He then got all of Itachi's memories, he is a bad person or a good person who does bad things and killed lots and lots of people. Romeo was really confused and a lot scared of him. When they were switched back Romeo asked him if he was a bad person, Itachi said that he didn't know, he doesn't want to be.
Itachi tried to help Romeo collect candy in October, and then when Romeo came back with superstrength Romeo attacked him and they fought. Itachi knocked him out and carried him back to his room.
In November Romeo got into the middle of him and Sasuke fighting. Itachi was mad at him for interfering but afterwards was happy that Romeo had stopped him hurting Sasuke.
CR J-L
Date: 2016-06-28 11:39 am (UTC)Jade Harley (AU): They met when Jade was hiding on floor 17. She was suspicious of Romeo because she was paranoid.
Jade Harley (OU): They went swimming with the fishes and fed them with fish food!
Jade Strider: She told him to get down to the cafeteria if he didn't have any cool skills during the whale attack. He told her she had to go get safe as well but it would be easier to search for people if they split up and both looked. She argued but he ignored her and ran off. At the yay we beat Jason party she stole his drink, he didn't like it but drank it just because she laughed at him for not liking it. She told him she didn't die in the whale attack.
She was also dressed as a superhero in the trick or treat event. He took her to the bitty meeting. She told him about school, she didn't like it very much. She called him a little kid and that upset him.
Jason: Words do not explain how much Romeo hates Jason. He is a cruel, bad, cheating coward and a birthday ruiner. He is the most bad of the bad control people and Romeo hates him a lot. He hates him so much.
He holds more hate for Jason than should exist in any one Romeo.
Jin Shirato: He was in Jason's pod. They spoke in week three and Jin told him he had done lots of bad things like killing people and setting fire to their houses. Then he told him that he didn't care about other people and people shouldn't care about others. Romeo told him he was wrong but he was an adult and adults sometimes didn't care about kids. Jin told him seventeen was young and he was wrong then as well. Romeo doesn't like Jin much at all. He put him on the bad adult list.
In week four Ruana made Jin do all the operations, Romeo didn't blame him for that because Ruana was a bad person, and he felt sad that Jin was forced to hurt people. Romeo saw him in the library when he was with Sayaka and Jin ignored him but Romeo wasn't sure what to say to him either. He answered his quiz on the network though he didn't know it was him.
Ken said that Jin was a good person and was like his big brother so couldn't go on the bad list. Romeo wasn't sure but put him on the okay but bossy adults list instead.
He was dressed as Jason during trick and treat. Super strong Romeo attacked him for being a bad adult.
John Egbert: Romeo and Molly hid under a bed with him during hide and seek. John wouldn't let Romeo go and fight the bears. They died together in hour thirteen, eaten by tiny spiders. He spoke on the network to invite everyone to his birthday party! He was almost fourteen! Romeo told him about mister John. For his birthday Romeo gave him some cookies made by him and Gamzee and apples. He told Romeo that cakes were the greatest evil in the universe. He then taught Romeo about the Batterwitch and how to tell her poison. Romeo now knows to be very careful around cakes!
He came and hugged Romeo in the second week of the pod event, Romeo hugged him back with bug legs. John was in Dax's pod and they agreed Dax should win, they tried to work out why everyone in Riki's pod looked sick all the time.
John Perry: A man Romeo spoke to on the network. He didn't believe the bad people and Romeo told him it was all a lie. Romeo told him about all the bad things that had happened and he actually listened. He asked Romeo about the other people in the tower and their ages. Then Romeo found him crying in the kitchen over something that happened a long time ago. Romeo told him that sometimes talking about what made them sad helped and John told him his wife had died.
Romeo told him she was in heaven and encouraged him to talk about her because that helped too sometimes. Then they baked apple pie together, and chocolate cake. Romeo sponsored him for a proper meal in the labyrinth.
Jun Kurosu: He got crushed to death by Riki in the pod event.
Kafuka Fuura: She was blowing bubbles, Romeo went to watch her and she taught her to blow bubbles. Piccolo didn't like her and kept hissing, they thought he was maybe sick and Romeo worried because he didn't know any weasel doctors.
Kairi: He met her in the hallways and promised to help look for her friends.
Kanata Nanami: A loud scary man in the library, he has a bad temper.
Kanaya Maryam (OU): They talked on the magical boxes called computers. She seemed nice and is a troll but doesn't eat children Romeo later found her while she was looking through the teloscopes on floor five. She was also in the group of people taken with Romeo to be experimented on. She was kind to him after his operation and so brave after hers. They meet again in the library and she read to him as he couldn't open the pages.
Kanaya Maryam (AU): He mixed her up with the other Kanaya at first, she likes sewing and making clothes as well and he thinks the two could be friends!
Kanaya Maryan (RDV AU): She came to the second bitty meeting, she had been in the tower for a long time as well and she was very nice. She fights with a chainsaw that is different than a normal saw and agreed to help train people.
Kanji Tatsumi Romeo sponsored him in the labyrinth, healing on day four and eight, and food on day eight. He was in Jason's pod.
Kanon A girl Romeo met in the cafeteria. She was sleeping. She asked if he was one of Zera's friends, and told Romeo that Zera was a scary boy who he should avoid.
Karkat Vantas (AU): He had a broken arm and Romeo stopped to help him. He learnt some bad people had beaten him up, and promised to protect him from then on. Karkat wasn't impressed though. He later found out that Karkat was always sad and tried to find ways to help him. Romeo sponsored him for a proper meal on day two and seven of the labyrinth. He got crushed to death by Riki in the pods.
Karolina Dean: A friend of Molly's from home, he thought she was a fairy and worried it was the one that had been killing Molly! But then found out she was her friend.
Keiki: He is a unicorn! Or a Kirin, but he can turn into a human! He is a little scary though and says strange things. Romeo helped him when he first arrived.
Ken Amada (AU): Romeo met him in the halls, he had just woke up and Romeo told him they had to beat the bad people. He wanted to know why Romeo would want to make a group of kids and Romeo told him he should join. Ken told him he was too innocent to lead and Romeo told him he had done it before. Romeo sponsored him when he was in the labyrinth, proper meals on day one and six.
Ken came to the bitty meeting. He told Romeo that he spelled rules wrong and didn't like the rule about obeying the leader because sometimes leaders are wrong. He can fight with spears and persona.
He was in Jason's pod and was crying because he was scared. Romeo told him that he had to be brave, Ken told him he was going to hit Jason and Romeo said that was not a nice thing to say. He soon changed his mind after Ken was hurt and spoke to him, trying to make him feel better and told him to think of nice things like his friends so it didn't hurt as much.
When England died Ken was with Romeo and Romeo told him he had been wrong, Ken should stab Jason in the face. Ken dried his tears and took him away so they didn't have to see. In the second week they did something to his brain and made him hurt a lot. Romeo told him he was braver than Jason would ever be because Jason is a stupid coward. Once they were let out for the end of the week Romeo gave Ken a hug with his bug legs. They agreed that Jason was a stupid cheater.
Then Ken let Yu throw him at Jason to try and hit him, which was a very brave thing to do. When Romeo was lecturing
thin airJason Ken told him about Sentai and Fetherman R and giant robots which are like trains but with no tracks and can fly and are superheroes. They agreed to find some films about them in the media room when they got out of the pods.At the end of the week when they were all stuck together with tentacles it was Ken's birthday, he turned twelve. Romeo held his hand and promised to make him cake because Jason was a stupid birthday ruiner.
Ken was given a pop out heart and then was strapped to a bed. Romeo went to see him when he was a rocking horse and they were both glad they weren't in the tentacle mess anymore.
When Romeo returned from his world he saw Ken again, Ken has a hamster called Tan. He told Romeo off for scaring him because Romeo tackle hugged him. Tan and Piccolo made friends. Romeo found Ken asleep in the meadow, he wouldn't wake up and so Romeo dragged him back to his room.
Ken came to the second bitty brigade meeting, Romeo had made him a cake as possible and a card with his imaginings of a giant robot superhero on it. Romeo voted Ken for leader and Ken voted Sayaka but Sayaka was almost too old. Ken became the leader. He also suggested training sessions for weapons, Romeo thought that was a good idea. During the whale attack Ken told him over the network to make sure all the bitties got to the cafeteria. When the tower was fixed again he announced a bitty training session and Romeo went to it. Ken's persona had changed and Romeo met his new one.
In October Ken called another bitty meeting due to the candy event. Romeo helped gather people, they were both dressed as super heroes and they decided they were going to save everyone.
Kidou Yuuto: He and Romeo went to talk to the group of bad people to convince them to team up with the good people to beat the really bad people. Kidou was nice and they promised to keep each other safe.
Later in trick or treat Romeo met Kidou after Kidou had lost. Romeo hugged him and told him not to be scared. Kidou was worried that he would hurt someone and Romeo promised to help him. They made a vow. When Romeo learned that vampires needed blood he offered some of his, because he didn't need all of it. Surely. This went horribly wrong and Kidou killed Romeo.
When Romeo had superstrength he attacked Kidou, eventually stabbing him.
Kota Fujiki: He spoke to Romeo after Romeo had been eaten by the spider; he was new and didn't know that people couldn't die in the tower. Romeo told him about the bad people and Kota warned him that he shouldn't say things about them in case they did bad things.
Kuja: He was ill because he hadn't eaten the oatmeal, Romeo told him to and then told him a bit about the tower because he was new and had to know about the bad people! He voted for someone in the pods and made them die.

L: Romeo followed him after he ate bad chocolate. Then they all got killed by monsters.
Legolas: Romeo doesn't know him but Gandalf was in his body.
Lillet Blan: She is a real life magic witch! But a good one, since she healed Romeo's arm when he was hurt. He thinks doctor Casella could have done with an elf like that back when the world wasn't destroyed. She disappeared
Lina Inverse: A girl who was on the network and couldn't type properly. Romeo helped her. She's a nice adult and Romeo likes her. After hide and seek she was really angry and Romeo told her about the bad people and how they had to stop them. She then tried to break the elevator but failed, Romeo told her that it couldn't be broken and reminded her that the bad were bad. She was too old to join the bitty brigade but Romeo told her she should make a team of adults. She said adults didn't listen to her and she lost her temper. Romeo told her that losing her temper wasn't good and she should try and stay calm. He sponsored her for a proper meal on day four and powers on day four and seven.
She spoke to him about being eaten by the giant spider and agreed to help make sure everyone was warned. Romeo agreed for her to look out for the bitty brigade and came up with the idea of having a list of good adults to help them.
He hugged her when he came back from his world and told her about it being dead. She told him it was probably a trick. Romeo agreed, mostly to keep his spirits up. She ended up on the okay but bossy adult list as a compromise with Sayaka.
Ling Yao: A man he met in the library, Romeo was reading and told him about his book and how he was going to rescue everybody.
Link (windwaker): They were both multicoloured, Romeo found it hilarious, Link not so much. He said he would join the bitty brigade. Romeo sponsored him for a proper meal and powers in the labyrinth on day three.
Link (SS): Another Link, he seemed sad. He had just arrived. Romeo showed him how to use the network and told him Zelda was in the tower with lots of other Links.
Link (AU1): He is an Elf that isn't called an elf. He plays pretty music and comes from a magical forest! With trees that play music, pretty music and children that never grow up! He said that music was a form of magic. Romeo wishes he could see his world because it sounds very beautiful and amazing. He was killed in hide and seek when his friend was turned into crystal and used to beat him to death. Romeo saw over the phone and was really sad.
After hide and seek Romeo found her by the lake on floor eleven. He hugged him but he was still really sad and crying. So Romeo sang pure heart to him. Then told him about Alfredo and how brave he was. Romeo thinks Alfredo would like Link.

Lucifer: He was in Jason's pod.
Luke fon Fabre: He was in Jason's pod. They cut his ears off and put a machine there, he couldn't hear anyone and was really scared and screaming. Romeo tried to calm him down but it didn't work because he couldn't hear him.
Luke Triton: A frightened kid who Romeo met when he accidently crashed into his room. He was scared of Romeo's appearance though and that made Romeo very sad. He disappeared but then he came back! Months and months later Romeo ran into him during the whale panic. And told him to get downstairs and be safe. Later Romeo took him to a bitty meeting.
CR M-Q
Date: 2016-06-28 11:44 am (UTC)Mao: A man who was screaming in one of the bedrooms, Romeo went to see if he needed help and learnt that he had been in the tower before and had just come back. He needed help setting up a lab, and didn't have enough room so Romeo sugested using one of the scary floors that no one liked. (Pretty much Romeo should never be allowed near mad scientists, he gives them ideas) He then tried to persuade him not to use up all the room because people still needed to walk through.
Marceline: He spoke to her before the midnight man game and they promised to look out for each other since the bad people were trying to hurt them again. John spoke to her during hide and seek, they talked about the different signs of the teddy bears but Romeo was too sad to pay attention.
After hide and seek he saw her and she was really sad and scared. She had died and wanted to give up because the teddy bears had killed her awfully. Romeo was angry because the bad people liked it when they cried and told her to keep her spirits up. He shouted at her and told her to keep fighting, finally she agreed and he vowed to protect her always and make sure she could stand up even when it was really hard.
Marisa Kirisame: She was sad in the cafeteria, Romeo told her that the bad people were lying.
Mary Baston: They met, she was very very friendly. She disappeared
Milagro Reyes: One of the people who was captured and experimented on with Romeo. She is a superhero who travels in the stars! Even after her operation she was really brave! After they were both back to normal they met again and Romeo got a Milagro hug. He promised he would look after her and she did the same to him. They promised to look after everybody else and then Romeo shared his food with her. He went to help her when she was searching for the poeple who had gone missing.
Minami Arisato: A girl who was listening to music, her and Romeo danced to Queen and it was really fun. Then during the collar swap she was all scary and killed him. Still he sponsored her for a proper meal on day five of the labyrinth.
Minato Arisato (AU): He was in Jason's pod, Jason did something to his brain and he looked really scared. He told Romeo that they would live and he should worry about the others. He voted for England at the end of week one and made him die.
Mio Amakura An adult that told him a ghost story, he attacked her for being a bad adult whilst he had superstrength.
Molly Hayes: They had an awesome conversation about dinosaurs, which Romeo is still skeptical about. She is really cool even if she does think books are stupid! She's also really strong and a superhero and a princess and made Romeo a superhero prince and they are gonna fight bad guys together. They explored the maze together! She told him that people are being eaten so they have to fight against that. She is his best friend in the tower and he likes spending time with her. She also introduced him to ice cream! And once she showed him how to eat it properly he loved it! Not so much once had been eating it for a whole month!
During the time Romeo was taken prisoner Molly looked after Piccolo for him. She wanted to beat up the baddies that had hurt Romeo and Romeo was scared she would be hurt. They made a vow of eternal friendship that no matter how bad things get and what the bad guys do to them, no matter how scary things are they will always look out for one another and protect each other and keep each other safe. They will always be friends and nothing will ever change that. Romeo will do his best to look after Molly even though she is a superstrong superhero.
Then the bad people tried to come between them and made Molly paranoid and tried to kill Romeo. She fought Eiji and hurt him and then killed Romeo and Piccolo. Romeo was really sad, and felt bad he couldn't stop the bad people doing that to her. He forgave her obviously, because it was not her fault, and she is his best friend.
She came to him when he was making puppets and they spoke, he apologised and she apologised and he convinced her she wasn;t dangerous and she was still his best friend. Then they spoke about puppets, and chimney cleaning (Because Molly being a princess had never had to clean chimneys before) and then she wanted to know if it was like cleaning teeth. Romeo had never heard of brushing teeth before and they talked about how it made your teeth shiny and only hurt if you had holes in your teeth. She also told him about school and how she thought it was boring. Romeo told her he wanted to go to school and she told him to ask Mister Charles to teach him.
They watched the scary videos together, Romeo thought the bad people were trying to scare them and they spoke to the frightened sounding girl. Molly threw a party and Romeo attended. He had never been to a party before, they ate all the pies. They danced because Mister Charles said that was what best friends did.
They were together when they found out they could go home and though they were happy they were sad to leave each other. Molly helped collect him from his world and they came back to the tower together. They spoke about Christmas over the network and even though Molly had different ideas than him about Christmas, when it was, and about Jesus they agreed to celebrate together and they would bake cakes together. Molly learnt that Romeo hadn't had chocolate before he was in the Tower and decided he obviously needed more chocolate so they went to raid the cafeteria for chocolate. It was adorable.
When the tower got invaded by monsters and they were all stuck in one room Molly, Romeo and Ienzo fought together and kept each other safe. After the attack there was time to relax again and they explored the new floors, hoping it was really Spring because Spring was full of nice things.
Then Molly disappeared and Romeo was heartbroken. She came back though! Romeo told her about what had been happening and how he had learned to fight. She said he could sleep in her room and she would beat up the people who hurt him. They agreed that if they all went home they would find a way to still visit each other and then they raced to the meadow.
They stuck together during Hitori Kakurenbo and hid under the bed with John. They spent ten hours keeping their spirits up before they were found, The bear ignored John and Romeo but put Molly under a chest and made it crush her. John wouldn't let Romeo go and save her A few weeks later she disappeared again.
Momotaros: An angry red monster man, Romeo told him that he had been stolen by bad people who said the worlds had ended. Momotaros told him he had stopped the world ending so it couldn't be true. During the whale attack Momotaros saw Romeo going off to fight monsters and said he would help, he took over Romeo's body and made him really good at fighting! He is the best big red monster man ever!
Namine: He found her looking scared after the scary videos and spoke to her. They spoke about how the frightened sounding person needed help and it could be a trick but they had to help anyways. Namine seemed scared so Romeo prmoised to look after her, she was a bit confused at that. Then they spoke about Psiioniic since he had told Namine she would like Romeo. She wasn;t sure if she could call Psiioniic a friend and Romeo told her she probably could, she seemed sad and he tried to find out why. He told her to keep her spirits up always. Namine was sad when Romeo couldn't find Molly and he promised to look for her. They ended up in the same group for the midnight man game. Then Romeo saw her die during hide and seek.
During the collar switch he ended up in the maze and met her, but he was really confused and thought he was in Milano. He doesn't remember much of it but it was scary and he isn't sure what to think about it. He knows it wasn't Namine's fault though.
Naoto Shirogane: She was in Jason's pod.
Navi: Floating ball of light, Romeo tried talking to it.
Nepeta Leijon: They went on an adventure to explore the maze together, the maze was terrifying but Napeta is a new friend! She taught Romeo about shipping walls and Lusus' and then she disappeared...

Protoman: Romeo's new roomate they met the morning Romeo woke up from being dead. Romeo told him about the experiments and told him he was going to stop the bad people. He told Romeo that people don't stand up for themselves, Romeo tiold him he just hadn't met very nice people. He told Romeo that people in his world had watched him die as he tried to protect them, Romeo swore that he would always stand for him. Protoman told him that it was stupid because he could just shoot Romeo, he had no idea if he was a good person or not. But Romeo told him he could shoot him if he wanted to, he would not vowing to him.
Romeo is doing his best to show him that some people can be really brave and stand up against bad people.
Prussia: They met at breakfast, she was friendly and had a chick named Featherpuff, she didn't think he was Italian. Then she disappeared
Psiioniic: One of the people experimented on at the same time as Romeo. He was very nice even though he was very scared. Back in his own world he and his best friend are trying to end slavery so that makes them very nice people. Theyspoke about heaven and hell and wondered if the tower was part of hell. Romeo likes him a lot and has joined his rebellion to stop the bad people who have done these things to them. When they escape they are going to take all their friends and form a new world where bad people and slavery doesn't exist.
After they were let out of the cages they spoke some more and Psiioniic is a person who Romeo feels safe with, who he wants to be near. He learned about Psiioniic's powers and reiterated that there was nothing they couldn't do if they all worked together.
When everyone was trying to kill them they stuck together for a while and helped each other. They were finally seperated and both got killed. Romeo felt bad he couldn't protect Psiioniic.
After they woke up they found each other again. They discussed what had happened and made a promise that they would stop the bad people before they could hurt anyone else and that they needed to keep their spirits up. They saw each other again when Romeo was making puppets, Psiioniic didn't know what a puppet was so Romeo explained to him.
When Molly disappeared Psiioniic helped him, he knew how sad Romeo was and made him talk about it when Romeo didn't know what to do. In a strange way it made Romeo feel better. Romeo was angry that he was so small and couldn't protect his friends, but Psiioniic told him that his real power was in making friends, and that just like he would help his friends they would help him back and lend him their strength. Romeo felt then that he could maybe beat the bad people. Spirits restored!
During hide and seek Psiioniic spoke to Romeo and told him to stay safe. Romeo told him to stay safe too, he was hiding in a closet. During the labyrinth Romeo sponsored him for a proper meal on day two, four and five and powers on day two and seven.
Psiioniic (AU): Romeo muddled him up for the other Psiioniic, he was a little bit confused but Romeo is sure he is just as nice as the first Psiioniic.

He told him he was too chearful and Romeo told him that he had to keep his spirits up because if they got sad then the bad people would win. Reno told him not to call him sad and that trying didn't even succeed. Romeo told him it did because they couldn't give up. Reno told him he was smart. He saw him later when setting up the bitty meeting. He told Romeo not to spin any bottles which Romeo didn't understand at all but he was nice and Romeo put him on the nice adults list. He told him about the phantom monsters eating the collar colours in the fellowship meeting.

Riku (OU): They were in the same group for the midnight man game.
Riku (AU): They met in the meadow, Riku had a key sword like Ven but it didn't turn into a hover board. Instead he used a Gummi ship to travel through the stars! But he didn't have that with him, Romeo told him about the bad people and Riku agreed to help beat them!
Ronald Knox: Romeo met him in the cafeteria, he didn't like the oatmeal. Romeo told him he had to eat it or he would get sick.

Romeo sponsored a proper meal for him in the labyrinth on day one.
Romeo saw him after the labyrinth, he was glad he was okay. He told him a bit about the other experiments and games and they agreed they had to make sure everyone was warned. After Romeo got eaten by the giant spider they talked about fighting and Ronald told him his knife needed a better handle. He agreed to give him knife fighting lessons to help him.

When Romeo was a moose he saw Ronald and told him about what had happened, Ronald said his friend William was in his group and Romeo swore a vow to protect his friend. He told Ronald to keep his spirits up. Romeo told him that William's memories had been stolen and gave Ronald a hug with his bug legs, he told Ronald he could headbutt Jason really hard with his antlers but Ronald told him to be careful.
During the whale attack Ronald followed him when Romeo went off to fight monsters, Romeo thought he was going to stop him but instead Ronald came with him and helped him look for Ken.

Romeo sponsored Russia a proper meal on day one and five of the labyrinth. He was in Jason's pod. He told Romeo he was really brave and they spoke about bravery and Russia and countries and being big and how things were scarier when you were small. When Romeo was crying over everyone dying in the pods he dried his tears and gave him his scarf to keep him safe because it was something that helped him feel brave. Then he told him a story about heroes.

After her surgery he told her she was very brave, she said she didn't feel brave but she really was.
She killed her friend to try and save her from Jason, then Ruana turned her inside out and killed her. Romeo next saw her in the library with Jin, he offered to help find out information but she said they were fine and he had to go set up the bitty meeting. He promised they would wait for her before they started since she was busy. He also burned her eyes with wall of red text but he didn't know it was her.
She came to the bitty meeting and he saved her ice cream and everything! Ken voted her for leader but she is almost too old to be in the group and will have to leave soon. She voted Romeo.

Romeo showed him all the new floors.
Signless: He met him whilst looking for Psiioniic but he already knew so much about him! He wanted to make everyone free and is a really great troll! Romeo swore a vow to him to help him free everyone and beat the bad guys. Signless began teaching him sickles. He spoke to John in hide and seak and said he would rather die then let innocents die. Further proving what a great person he was. Signless told him the bitty brigade was a good idea and so Romeo decided to go through with it even though some people didn't think it was good.
Sollux Captor: They spoke over the network, Sollux writes funny and uses 2s instead of S's he also swears a lot! They spoke about people disapearing and about Napeta forgetting everything.

Sollux Captor (AU): They were in the same group for the midnight man game.
Sonata Shinonome: She came to the second bitty brigade meeting she is really nice and enthusiastic but talks about herself in the third person because she thinks it is cute.

She told Romeo the world really had ended and Romeo was sad but she hugged him. She reminds him of his mum.
After he woke up from being dead he saw her in they cathedral, she was very sad and crying because she had killed Romana and now Romana was gone. She hadn;t come back like Romeo.

The Summoner: A nice troll Romeo met, he wanted to know how old Romeo knew and which other trolls he knew. Romeo offered to find his friends for him. He thought that Piccolo was Romeo's lusus so Romeo explained that humans didn't have lusii, that they have parents instead. Summoner was a little disturbed by the fact that humans grew inside other humans. Romeo then went on to explain that parents looked after their children, but sometimes didn't, sometimes were mean to them and sometimes sold them. Romeo perhaps was not the best person to explain this to a troll... He tried to explain that children had to leave their parents eventually in order to become adults themselves.

When Romeo began learning to fight he asked Ven to teach him magic, he gave Ven back his keyblade (finally) and started to learn magic (with the help of a whale puppet). He learned how to heal.
When Romeo was in Jason's pod Ven looked after Piccolo. Romeo went back to his world after wards but when he returned looked for Piccolo and found Ven. Ven told him that Yu and Zelda had told him about the pods, he liked Yu too and told Romeo that if he ever needed help he could go to Ven. Then they went and found food! Real food!
Romeo met him when he was in Itachi's body, Ven was in his friends body but looked the same, he didn't know why he looked like his friend. He told Romeo he wasn't a twin. He also said Romeo should wait to grow up and Romeo told him he was gald he was still a human and didn't have antlers this time.
Ventus (AU): Romeo went to give the hoverboard back to him, but it was the wrong Ven. Romeo didn't know that though. He thought he had been made to loose his memories by the bad people like Napeta. He was sad but tried to be friendly despite the fact Ven was acting really scared. He tried to help him and make friends with him again. He got killed by Dax in the pods, Dax pressed a button and he died.
Vergil: Romeo's roommate.
Vivi Nefertari: A little girl who was really scared and Romeo helped.
Vivi: A boy who was really young and going to join the bitty brigade.
Vriska Serket (OU): One of the people Romeo was attached to during the leash event. Romeo sponsored her for powers in the labyrinth on days two and seven and food on days six and seven. She thanked him afterwards on the network. They talked about food and how the bad people weren't too bad because they fed them. Vriska told him that adults didn't stop kids from having food in her world, they just killed them. Romeo was glad there were nice trolls like Vriska. And how they had to be careful around adults. Vriska told him that he had hopeless optimism and he told her it was better to be happy than sad. She said they weren't the only two emotions.
Vriska Serket (AU): She was in Romeo's group for the midnight man game and the only person Romeo found during it. He mistook her for other Vriska at first but then followed her around and tried to protect her. They clashed though Romeo didn't notice it, he annoyed her a lot though he was trying to be helpful and friendly. Then he shouted at the midnight man and she got angry at him. But they escaped (who even knows how)
During hide and seek Romeo spoke to Vriska a lot (and annoyed her a lot), in hour seven he asked her to come join them but she didn't want to. He told her to stay safe. In hour ten she almost drowned in blood and Romeo was worried about her, he told her to move. She was sarcastic and then told him she didn't care about other people. That made Romeo sad. She also said you didn't need friends and that made him mad. She said she was trying to teach a lesson but wouldn't tell him what one. Romeo thought she was a stupid teacher. Then she called him an idiot. There was more arguing.
Still he didn't leave her alone and they spoke in hour thirteen, arguing again, Romeo trying to keep her spirits up. Then she betrayed him and John to bears and they got eaten by tiny spiders.
She next spoke to him when he announced the bitty brigade, she thought it was a really bad idea and that it would just make them a bigger target. They argued (again) and he told her she had to practice being nicer. They argued (more) about the hemospectrum because she was nasty about hemospectrum Eridan and she told him to go tell a high blood they should be nice to everyone.
So he did.
William T. Spears: He was in Jason's pod. He is Ronald's boss and friend and Romeo swore a vow to Ronald to keep him safe. He couldn't stop Jason from doing bad things to him but he tried to help him keep his spirits up. Jason stole his memories.
Xion A nice adult. Reno's adopted daughter.
Yamato Hotsuin (AU) A young boy who Romeo met in the hallways. Yamato told him he had no friends so Romeo became his friend and promised to look out for him. He didn't know much, just like Romeo hadn't known much when he first arrived.
Romeo went to recruit him for the Bitty brigade in October, Yamato was scared and hid under his bed. When Romeo tried to make him come out he bit Romeo. Romeo bribed him out with pumpkin seeds.
Later Romeo helped him collect candy. Yamato told him he was humiliated by his costume because he looked ridiculous. Romeo didn't really understand, because his costume was silly too but he didn't mind. Romeo taught him how to keep his spirits up.
After Romeo had died and came back superstrong he helped Yamato out some more. Yamato took advantage of Romeo being stronger than him.
Yellow: Asked Romeo if he had seen her Pikkachu, Romeo didn't know what one was but they went to look in Yellow's trunk and Romeo met her Pokemon.
Yori Kawasawa: Romeo sponsored him for warning of an approaching character on day three of the labyrinth and food on four and six.
Yu Narukami: He was in Jason's pod. He voted for England at the end of week one and made him die; Romeo thought that made him a bad person but then he changed his mind. Yu threw Ken at Jason so Ken could hit him, then talked Ruana out of punishing them. He told Romeo to save his strength when he was lecturing Jason. Romeo told him he was brave for what he had done and Yu said he had been scared. Romeo said Russia had told him you had to be scared before you could be brave and that it was good he had been polite.
At the end of the week when they were stuck together with tentacles Yu told him that they had to be brave, they talked about how Jason and Ruana were not good leaders and Yu told him about dictators. They talked about how they were stronger together.
Yu was all injured and kept falling over once he was released from the tentacle mess, he still helped Romeo who kept accidentally toppling over from over rocking. He told him about his uncle who was a hero and how being injured made you still want to do things. Romeo told him about breaking his leg and having to stay still. Romeo thinks Yu is a hero and Yu told him anyone could be a hero; even Romeo. Romeo didn't see him again for a long time, until after the body swap but then saw him in the meadow.
Yuffie Kisaragi: She was in Jason's pod.
Yusuke Urameshi: An idiot of the highest calibre. Romeo has never met him but that is what Hei said about him because Yusuke had left Hei somewhere dangerous with alcohol all over him when he fell asleep. Romeo thinks Yusuke should apologise.
Zelda: They were in the same group for the midnight man game. She is Link's friend and was turned into crystal during hide and seek and died. She was going to go and help everyone in the labyrinth. Romeo wanted to help but she wouldn't let him, she said he was too little. He was angry because his friends were in danger and he didn't care about being hurt. But she told him to keep watch instead.
So he did. He saw and watched the whole messy affair on the network, saw Gamzee go crazy and all his friends die but he made sure to watch carefully in case he could help at all. He spoke to her whilst he was a horror moose and she told them that they would win, she would ensure Dax's victory because Jason's evil couldn't continue.
Zelda: She asked on the network for friends.
Zo: A kid who Romeo thinks is a prisoner of the bad control people, Romeo wishes he could help him and when he finally finds a way to save everyone he will save Zo as well.
