TG: ....
TG: r u touchin everythin in there

[Don't give too much, they don't have self control, you're the only one who can watch the moderation. There's only so much you can get at once, but always have a reserve for the bad times. Careful, careful, careful, you're the only one who can do this, you're all alone in this effort.]

[And on the other side of the pumpkins is Roxy.]

[Who looks to be only about five years old, crying into her knees.]

DW: Of course.

[o-oh]

[bitty Roxy]

[he pulls up a small smile, and takes a step towards her. hesitant, not wanting to scare her off]

Hey there. . .

Do you?

Hopefully they will after this.

First time for everything. But I don't plan on staying in here. Thing is I'm probably going to need you help if I'm going to get us out.

[Oh.]

[So.]

[This is what a hug from a human feels like.]

[She leans against him, wrapping her arms around him, and....relaxes.]

TG: crazy fuckers the lot of u

[ Claps. ]

I loved it!!

[Her head snaps up at the voice and]

[Just looks so startled.]

DW: It's a good excuse to get acquainted with the particulars of being dead.
DW: I'm starting to get why breaking a clock might mess with revivals, at least.
DW: Though Nyssa's clocks are probably different clocks.

I'll find you when I'm out of here. We can swim or make pillow forts like this.

[ let's try to destroy more of this glass and make it real, if that's possible. destroy this fragile sadness and give it warmth in here. stability, comfort ]

[he holds up both hands and stops his approach]

Hey. . . sorry about that.

[sheepish, apologetic, earnest]

I heard you crying. I wanted to make sure you were okay.

[She snorts.] Gettin' OUT is fucking easy. I walk through walls.

It's the fact doggy Jade can drag me back that's the problem.

Not to the same extent. I won't pretend that's the case. But I've been trapped against my will before, in a situation where escape seemed impossible. My only company was my abductor.

[It takes him a minute to also relax. But the Heart makes it easier to refocus on what's important here: the girl in his arms. When she lulls in his arms, he's hugging her close, holding her tightly so the blanket envelops both of them - a cocoon against the cold and empty outside these walls.

After a moment, he starts to hum - bits and pieces of a lullaby he himself was soothed to, all by the person who he thought could chase all his fears away when he was small.]

I have a good idea of where to go.

CW: i wanted to go back to life
CW: before heading on to doom
CW: i'll try to understand when i get there

TG: well duh
TG: obvs metaphora
TG: but wow
TG: srsly dude

[Smiles.] Thanks!

[...Blood is deets. I GOT THIS.]

[let's touch the others, indigo, olive, purple... then red.]

AM: Whatever you feel is best
AM: Just be careful
AM: Good luck

...and what happened?
