Reform; scramble through to be reborn
Survive seven days the urban hive
Endure the constant ploy of Death's envoy
Forfeit your closest joys to hush the Noise
May the Reaper have mercy on your soul.
Imagine yourself running through the streets of a sprawling, metropolitan city, a single partner by your side. Imagine racing against the clock to complete tasks sent to you via your phone, when failure to complete the mission means the erasure of your very existence. Imagine fighting strange animals hunting your very soul, your only defense against them a small collection of pins. Imagine a world overlapping our own, run by an omnipotent and omniscient individual and his underlings.
Welcome to the Reapers' Game.
You have seven days to survive, fight off creatures known as the Noise, and complete daily tasks assigned to you by your session's Game Master. Should you not accomplish the objective before the time limit runs out, your existence itself shall be forfeit. Your only weapons are "pins", objects which resemble political buttons but hold power within them tied inherently to the user's Imagination. Your only ally is a single partner, a complete stranger, without whom you cannot survive and defeat the Noise-- so there must, of course, be a firm bond of trust between the two of you, or you will surely die.
Then again, you're already dead.
Your manner of death is unimportant, but all players in the Reapers' Game are deceased, and participating in order to regain their lives. To achieve this, you must make it to the seventh day and defeat the Game Master, but of course obstacles stand in your way: the time limit, which is the candle that symbolizes your life, constantly reminding you as it counts down in the palm of your hand; the Noise, monsters which aim for the kill, and which you need your partner's help to defeat; and the Reapers, whose task it is to kill you indirectly, stalling you with walls or summoning Noise. It is a small wonder why your revival depends solely on your survival.
May you have the best of luck surviving.

Yeah, we're setting this up again. This time, I'm the one running it, with some help from @CerberusLycan. I guess he's the Conductor to my Composer or some shit
For those who don't know what this is, it is a statplay based on Square Enix/Jupiter's NDS game The World Ends With You, widely called TWEWY. In case you tl;dr'd the above text, the premise of the game-- and thus the roleplay-- is that you survive something called the Reapers' Game, a seven-day-long event where the dead attempt to make it to the end and return to life. In this game you must make a pact with someone you've never met, but you have to trust them or else you're basically fucked (wording courtesy of @Eebit, thank you very much). Until you gain a partner, you will be unable to fight the Noise, leaving you defenseless. If your partner is erased, you die in about seven minutes.
Oh right. And being that this is a statplay, you get to share HP. You fuck up, you die. Yay~
The purpose of this interest check is to rekindle the interest that was probably lost when @Shadow failed to do anything with this.
Go ahead and post here if you're interested, and definitely feel free to form partnerships ahead of time~More information on TWEWY can be found here, but be warned that there are spoilers, and TWEWY is not the kind of game you want to spoil for yourself.
