Re: RAGE

[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.

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

How many times have you tried?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

See her powers in action. And personally, I'm not interested in provoking organ loss when I know what I'm dealing with.

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

I can't blame you for that. It doesn't mean you should have to do what she wants. She doesn't deserve it.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

She totes doesn't, but....AAAAGH!

It's an extinct RACE.

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

That's what I mean. If you're going to do it, it should be be because you think it's right. Not because anyone else does. It's your life.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

...doesn't feel like it most days.

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

From what I've seen, I can understand that. But that's why it's even more important that this is your decision. It's the way you show that they can't take away everything. And it's your way you fight back.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

...

Is it really that simple?

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

... it's not really. It's just a piece. But a piece is better than letting someone change who you are. And you're a good person, Roxy. So whatever choice you make, if it's right to you, that's what matters.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

...heh. Maybe.

[And suddenly you're back out on the streets again.]

[You have your minion back.]

[You also have twelve foot tall robot firing a rocket at you.]

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

[ BUT WHY? ]

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[BECAUSE HOMESTUCK ALPHA KID LIFE]

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

[ Well at least I have my minion and still a lot of blood to work with. And if he's protecting his minion, he can focus a lot better on the task at hand. Because it's about more than just him. It's about someone important to Roxy. And someone depending on him. So let's try more of the blood protection while grabbing minion for getaway flight. Maybe they can get back to the labs... ]

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[At least there's....plenty of dead Carapacians around. :')]

[You have a BLOOD SHIELD to eat the rocket. ROBOT CONTINUES TO FOLLOW AS YOU RUN TO THE LAB. You know you are two thirds of the way there.]

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

[ Can we try to trip the robot with that shield and keep flying? ]

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[Why yes you can.]

[Silly drone, this is why you fly.]

[Ten sider again.]

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

[ Well, that feels pretty damn good!

1 ]

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[I'm sorry that feeling isn't going to last.]

[And that would be how it feels like to have every hope, dream, and everything you cherished violently ripped from you and crushed before your eyes.]

[You are now in a void.]

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

[ Yep, in a void and now emotionally compromised. Because he just. He has nothing for that. Absolutely nothing. But tears. Tears and a terrible sickness in his gut. ]

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[He appears to be alone in the void.]

[So at least he has time to have every single feeling.]

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

[ THANKS FOR THAT! ]

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[Sometimes we all need time to cry.]

Re: RAGE

[showyouthesight]

[ He is probably having the most extreme emotional meltdown he's had in some since that really is TOO FUCKING MUCH for him to take. Thankfully, his new godtier status makes it a little bit easier to unconsciously call on his power, his bonds, for support and to try to force focus through all that bleakness and despair. Because he can't lose this fight. He can't. He promised! How is he supposed to find everyone in the end if he can't find his way out of this? He may be a fucking failure but he won't fail her! And that's the only thought that remains amid the crushing weight of agony and helplessness. But he grasps for it with everything he has.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[Blood, blood, blood, there was so much BLOOD, but blood is more than life, but how it binds people, ties them together. Sometimes those bindings can be choking, suffocating, dragging people down, like it's dragging HER down, because it's the people she remembers, the people she lived for.]

[In the end, you're an heir, and if your aspect needs to be changed, it is in your power to inspire that change when people need it. The blood she's focused on has dragged her down, has taken the life from her eyes, and left her in this wreck state.]

[But there's more than that blood in here, isn't there? Everyone keeps saying how they want to help, offer their own blood to prove it, and there is power there. There is kindness and caring and change. You can take that change, use that blood to get power, to give you focus, to make sure that those desires don't fall short.]

[You can use that blood to cause change.]

[You can use it to inspire her to free her from that sadness and see the bonds that could save her from despair.]

[You can change it, Heir of Blood, just step forward, and see with new eyes.]
