Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

...Could you tell me about her?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

She was....

So bright. So beautiful and wonderful.

Her world is the fluffiest shit other, but also kinda wtf because she's friends with some horrorbeast godthing and that shit is always a story. But it was like....so much friendship and wonderful and HOPEFUL. She was always supportive of people, positive, so brave, but she didn't dismiss the bad shit. She acknowledged it was bad and gave comfort when she could, understanding when that was all was needed. Wasn't just fluff and...and general platitude about it.

She didn't pity me or treat me like glass even when I told her the truth. And despite how obvs it was I was a fucked up person, she still looked at me and....and said she loved me.

[Well, now she's crying.]

That she wanted me. That I was the first pick for her.

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

[ ...Oh.

So that's what you meant by girlfriend. He's giving you a hug again Roxy. ]

She sounds wonderful.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[YEAH.]

[She...doesn't respond.]

She was. Is. Needs to be is.

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

...I'm sorry.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Why?

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

You have lost many people important to you.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

But...you couldn't change that.

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

I can't. ...All I can do is sympathize.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Is that why people say sorry then? When it's not their fault?

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

I believe so.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Ah.

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

There will always be people who wish they could do something, even when they know they can't.

...I have lost people too.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

....what were they like?

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

I don't remember much, but my an-- my mother, she was kind and brave. She...worked in a factory. Made clothes. She'd leave at seven in the morning and wouldn't come back until more than twelve hours later, for my sake. She was pretty. Wore a headband with flowers.

Alp was an idiot. But a smart idiot, he learnt a language in less than a year. Could hold his own against kids trying to strong-arm him into selling things cheap. Smiled way too much but...he really smiles, it's amazing. He believed in me, even when I didn't believe in myself.

They're both gone. Even before I came here.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

....

[Oh, you hit the mom doki's.]

[She smiles, gently.]

They sound really nice.

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

They really do, don't they?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

They do.

I hope you have more good mems with 'em. Even when it hurts...it's nice to see the good stuff.

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

I hope you do the same, too.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[She smiles sadly.] Yeah.


[And suddenly you're back out on the streets again, with your new Carapacian friend.]

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

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

[ You know I was going to have warm fuzzy feelings and then this happened.

He's just. Going to grab the Carapacian and try to teleport out of the way, he's. He's pretty sure he can extend his Space powers to this little guy for a while he told him he'd try to get him somewhere safe -- ]

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[Sorry, mood whiplash is Rage's thing apparently.]

[YOU HAVE TELEPORTED.]

[Robot is confused, but it is still looking for you. What do you do?]

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

[ Where is the lab? He's thinking of trying to get there first and maybe dealing with the robot later. ]

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[It is -----> that way.]

[You are two thirds of the way there.]

[You are A LOT closer than you were.]

[Robot has spotted you and is beginning pursuit.]

Re: RAGE

[fairhands]

[ He's going to try to teleport himself and the Carapacian nearer to the lab then, because holy shit how does he even deal with a giant robot trying to kill him. He's not equipped (m..mentally, anyway) to do deal with this!!! ]
