Ideal World Endgame

Who: Beautiful dreamers
Where: The Game Tower
When: Day 271, morning

[When you wake, the folding chairs and divans from before have all been cleared away. You're lying asleep on the floor, healed of all injury.]

[You remember the events of the worlds you've visited as though visions seen in a dream -- though for those of you torn from your perfect existence, there is an ache inside you which will not fade for some days... the pain of something precious that has been lost.]

[Out beyond the windows of the tower, the sky is no longer a perfect blue; the vegetation is no longer as lush and inviting.]

[The view is of Tokyo-F, exactly as it's always been.]

[Near the far wall, there is an open book on a pedestal. The pages are empty. It is titled GUEST BOOK, and a pen waits nearby.]

...Ready for what?

To go back ...home?

[Ah. Right. That's home, huh.]

You're waiting for me?

Mm...

All those worlds really messed with my head.

[It was other peoples' worlds not his, definitely definitely.]

I don't think that's uncommon...
bondsofsuffering: ([Think] in hope.)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2020-08-09 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
How bad did it get you?
cw_suicide: (477)

[personal profile] cw_suicide 2020-08-09 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
Three places.

Nothing bad.

[the problem, really, is one was too "good" and now everything outside of it is terrible and he already was bad at coping with reality]
bondsofsuffering: ([Sigh] 'Cause what I feared)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2020-08-09 07:15 am (UTC)(link)
The whole problem is, some of those places were just too good.
cw_suicide: (516)

[personal profile] cw_suicide 2020-08-09 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
There's no such places.
bondsofsuffering: ([Think] in hope.)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2020-08-09 07:38 am (UTC)(link)
Obviously, 'cause they're dreams.

But most people don't actually get to even pretend they're in places like that for a while.

[shrugging a bit in a kind "what can you do?" manner]

Better to just leave it.

[or find substitutes. l-lol.]

Gotta wake up and smell the hell magma or whatever.

[personal profile] cw_suicide 2020-08-09 08:04 am (UTC)(link)
You'll have people who understand, at least.
bondsofsuffering: ([Sigh] dance on a roulette)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2020-08-09 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
To that degree, at least.
cw_suicide: (497)

[personal profile] cw_suicide 2020-08-09 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
That's something.
bondsofsuffering: ([Think] in hope.)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2020-08-09 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Guess it'll just have to be enough for everyone right now.
cw_suicide: (408)

[personal profile] cw_suicide 2020-08-09 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[just kind of hums noncommittally at that]
bondsofsuffering: ([Ow] over me)

[They can just Chill.
