Re: DOOM
Date: 2015-01-26 05:38 pm (UTC)I have had... bad things happen as well, and it has been difficult to stay myself, or rather, I could not show myself. But I still had it with me, and without it I do not know what kind of person I would be. There are things I wish had not come to pass but as I am right now, I do not regret it happening.

That's the point! You're not doing this alone, and-- you never were!
Re: RAGE
Date: 2015-01-26 05:40 pm (UTC)after all, it's nothing personal
being carried away!!]
Ah....thank you. Will they be all right?
Re: RAGE
Date: 2015-01-26 05:43 pm (UTC)[H-how about we get you home, yes, this is good.]
Re: RAGE
Date: 2015-01-26 05:45 pm (UTC)also rude don't ignore me]
....I hope they will be, for a little while at least. They were just hungry.

Date: 2015-01-26 05:46 pm (UTC)[The bonds to the other cubes are strengthening, but they're still weak, flickering. It's harder to get her to make someone else her 'hope' without their consent, unfortunately.]
[The the connection she has to his and the other are stronger, and the cubes of her friends are repairing themselves somewhat.]
[There is also a light on the floor below them. It looks almost like some stylized feather.]
Re: DOOM
Date: 2015-01-26 05:47 pm (UTC)[She gestures for him to approach the throne.]
Re: HOPE
Date: 2015-01-26 05:50 pm (UTC)[ He lifts his head to glance toward that light. ]
What's that?

Date: 2015-01-26 05:51 pm (UTC)S....stop! Please, I don't...
[She grabs his arms, tight.]
Just...just stop, please, I don't want to lose anyone else!

Date: 2015-01-26 05:51 pm (UTC)It's...it's been out for a few days now.
Re: RAGE
Date: 2015-01-26 05:52 pm (UTC)[Yes they were.]
[Safety first, little dreamer. Perhaps it is time to explain.]
Re: RAGE
Date: 2015-01-26 05:52 pm (UTC)Hm ... can I ask you something though?
Re: DOOM
Date: 2015-01-26 05:53 pm (UTC)[You hate it.]
[It's not as if you don't understand. You know to Jane, it makes no sense, the things you tell her. She's centuries in the past, of course she wouldn't believe you when you tell her how you grew up.]
[About what you've lost.]
[Because to her, it hasn't happened.]
[But it hurts. It still hurts as she denies such basic facts of your life.]
[How she treats it like it doesn't exist.]
[And it feels like you don't exist]
Re: RAGE
Date: 2015-01-26 05:54 pm (UTC)as carrying continues:]
Why did you help me? Aren't you hungry, too?
Re: HOPE
Date: 2015-01-26 05:55 pm (UTC)Since you got back that memory... Is there anything we can do to encourage it?
Re: RAGE
Date: 2015-01-26 05:57 pm (UTC)[Time fast forwards, you're home, you're safe, helping the Carapacian treat your own injury, and they explains. Explains that there is a difference between Dersites and Prospitans. How you're a 'Dreamer' though the term confuses you, and how a Prospitan must never harm one, but for Dersites it's more just really, really bad form to do so before the start of the end. It's confusing, but you understand a few basic things.]
[When Carapacioans are hungry, they have a harder time controlling themselves, and they're all basically starving.]
[The reason you're protected is because of some role you don't understand and not because it's you and that HURTS more than the teeth did in your skin.]
[And no matter what, you are never completely safe outside your house.]
[Hydra is herself again, and she's in the basement. There's Roxy, only five years old, a bandage wrapped around her leg, and sorting through cans of food with a grim determination.]

Date: 2015-01-26 05:59 pm (UTC)I need to build something that will stand. That can last.
That's what I do. Work with small, basic things, and...and make it last, be strong.
Re: RAGE
Date: 2015-01-26 06:01 pm (UTC).....ah, she remembers tiny roxy
so she knows to sit down quietly, put her hands where they can be fully seen, and say, slowly:]
Roxy.
