Re: DOOM

[Nod, nod.]

This is very true.

And for that, you have to acknowledge every part of your body, don't you? It's no good if you just let your leg dangle, is it?

Re: DOOM

[forthemackerel]

Of course. It takes every part to function.

Re: DOOM

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[Nods.]

Being close to people, connecting with people, it's like swimming. Gotta have the ability to acknowledge all those parts.

You understand, why I'm not 'bout change?

Re: DOOM

[forthemackerel]

You're a fixed point. This pain is something that shouldn't be erased since it's part of what forms you. And any change... would erase that.

Re: DOOM

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[Nods.]

That's right.

As much as I would like to change it....it's still part of who I am.

It still makes up who 'Roxy' is.

Re: DOOM

[forthemackerel]

[ lightly squeezes her hands ]

But you also don't need to carry the burden alone. Even if we can't fully understand, it's obvious there are a lot of people that care about you. That they're willing to go through anything to prove that. You don't need to change, but... there will be people to help with those weights trying to pull you down.

Re: DOOM

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[She smiles, looks amused, but also sad.]

I know.

That's why I'm makin' y'all go through here.

'cause I'm kinda stupid as a whole, but I'm willing to do what I need. Plus, y'know, it'll help with what comes next.

Re: DOOM

[forthemackerel]

[ he can't say anything about the "as a whole" part, since he hasn't seen her much as a whole ]

What comes next?

Re: DOOM

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

I send ya off to Rage.

[Letting go of his hand to give him back his thermos.] Btw, you do have a sylladex.

Re: DOOM

[forthemackerel]

[ takes the thermos from her ]

...What's that?

Re: DOOM

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Magical storage system.

Now that you know it exists, the way to use it should pop up here. [Pokes his forehead.]

Re: DOOM

[forthemackerel]

[ blinks at that poke, but sure enough ]

Oh.

[ and he'll dump that thermos into safe keeping, then ]

. . . Thank you.

[ gasp, shock, hold the surprise ]

Re: DOOM

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[She smiles and there's something sad, forlorn about it, but it's genuine.]

You're welcome.

Ready to go? It's gonna probs be an ordeal in Rage to, so you'll want to be prepared.

Re: DOOM

[forthemackerel]

I am.

[ not so overwhelmed from when he first touched the blood and has that energy back ]

As prepared as I can be, at least.

Re: DOOM

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[She nods and leans forward to kiss his forehead with cold lips.]

[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]
