THE LOST DAYS... Round 2.

It's all darkness.

The feeling of nothingness, of being nothing. Of not existing. You have no thoughts, you will never have any thoughts again. While that fact is not comforting, because you cannot be comforted anymore, it is true.

There's a certain rest to being... nothing. And to both knowing and not knowing, that your time is done.

So it's all the more unfortunate when you feel, because you shouldn't feel. And the feeling is burning in your lungs, which you shouldn't have. Because you are- or were- nothing.

And then, you inhale a desperate gasp of air and open your eyes...

[ well, she's just going to scribble a little note—

I think we may have just missed each other, and I'm sure there's reasons why you haven't been back—hopefully one of them is being happy where you are. But there's no reason to be a total stranger, you know—at least to me. - Hope, of Pack BAD END=DEAD END

If she activates it, it gives off enough sound energy to knock... everything else off the desk!

And comes with its own nice little memory, this time with FiN.

Jason and a girl with pigtails, talking on the balcony about how to get stronger and how she wants to defend herself in the future. Jason feels a little numb on the inside, and he's smoking up a storm.

But he's encouraging her to do it.

People really come and go a lot, don't they.

...sometimes good with kids, isn't he.

These all seem to be short stories at least!

There's, "The Flower Game."

And "The Marketing Game."

And, "Somehow, we made an evil princess?"

"The day FiN discovered capitalism."

[ actually, what's the deal with the flower game

people keep bringing that up. ]

Re: JASON'S ROOM

[personal profile] idolpro 2021-01-27 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
Who knows what the deal was, but there's a pretty straightforward recount of Jason and Scythe playing the game together.

Ending with a selfie taken of both of them, with Scythe wearing the flower crown.

They both are wearing BAD END attire, so, another for the bad end memories?

You get a warm feeling from this, of trying to protect the kids you've put yourself in charge of.

[ good big brother jason futureisnow. ]

All the time good with kids, it seems. That's really cute, actually. Good taste in headwear.

[ she's going to pick up the "marketing" one, next. ]

Scrawled in annoyed text at the top: You can't count on BAD END to play smart enough to protect themselves.

The recount here is straightforward. Including the end, where three of BAD END went up to try and pay it forward for AlcheME, and ended up costing them the game, and nearly getting wiped.

Jason's voice and annoyance comes across clear here, as does his conflict with the oldest members of BAD END, particularly Joker and Thorn.

[ she taps the corner of the book thoughtfully against her chin. ]

I begin to see why there was a rift... headstrong personalities will do that, I suppose.

I'll try when I'm there, at least.

[ ...the evil princess she knows about, unfortunately, but what in god's name is "the day FiN discovered capitalism" ]

She gets a detailed story of the auction, up to and including Jason's attempt to help Kiri win one of her prized items by telling her that Angel loves sheep.

Sheep... that she may vaguely recall seeing in the common room.

It finishes with a raw total of the points that Angel and Sho walked away from the auction with. A lot.

[ hahaha holy shit???

capitalism is hilarious actually when all the money is fake

well, she's going to pull herself up out of the circular pit and go see what the books are on the bed. ]

Re: JASON'S ROOM

[personal profile] idolpro 2021-01-29 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
Well.

There's "Pride and Prejudice (and Zombies)," "Jane Eyre." "Frankenstein's Monster."

There's also an Avante jacket left carelessly at the foot of the bed.

Interesting choices, sir. I didn't realize you were a fan of the classics.

[well, she gets the memory of this conversation happening.

it fades out before the end, but... guess this sad bird in snow chick is important, or dear.

somehow.]

Re: JASON'S ROOM

[personal profile] widenessofthesea 2021-01-29 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ somehow!

a close friend...? although "friendship" seems like an odd word for this conversation—must be someone she hasn't met, though. though something kind of nags, like she should vaguely know where this person fits into the circle of people she knows. marrying vergil's son?

...maybe she'll figure it out later. surely she'll meet her eventually.

she's going to flip through "pride and prejudice and zombies" next. ]

Re: JASON'S ROOM

[personal profile] idolpro 2021-01-29 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
Well. This conversation is deeply personal.

But explains where the book came from.

Mm...






[ somehow, that's—well, the boyfriend's a good boy, but it makes her wonder if she should stop prying, at least.

well, a little, anyway. ]

Aria was right that if you've been assigned to BAD END you're sort of like this, weren't they.

Who's "Frankenstein's Monster," though?

[ listen

hubris is her top flaw but curiosity is her second one. so she's going to flip through that one too.

besides, shelley is good taste. ]

[ ah. ]

...well, if that's how it goes, that's how it goes, I suppose.

[ she... sets that book aside, off the bed—moving it over to the sitting area with the other books. ]

Perhaps it's time I move on, on that note. Ah, where to, though...

[ are the flowers still behaving in the hallway ]
