myth was catching up on lost time, seeing syphon and kali. she had even spoken to kitty a few times. it was like when she was in high school, missing one day meant you missed all the important things that change day to day routines. it was almost like she had FOMO but there was absolutely... nothing fun about it. 

the next stop was the new floor, she wanted to scope it out but after a good thirty minutes, it seemed the floor wasn’t quite ready to show itself to them. or it truly had nothing to show them at all. either way, myth wasn’t exactly intrigued to say the least. she was just as solemn as the ten others who got off the train around the same time as her. she was at a dead end.

the sound of starlight had myth turning on her heel, eyes landing on the female before bringing a small grin to her lips. “as long as master splinter isn’t the final boss, i would be slightly accepting of that idea.” myth laughs gently, walking up to her before looking down at the empty spot next to her.

“mind if i sit?” 

player : starlight. floor : 62, near the train tracks.

she missed the boss battle. the first time since the goldfish fiasco. star just didn’t see the point, really she’s struggling to see the point in a whole lot of things lately. she’s not even sure what the boss actually was — hell, she never did visit that floor now did she? too busy off on floors that very few visit after the boss has been defeated. which was perfect to just get through and destroy herself without actually….destroying herself. after luna found her — after what she discovered — she had to figure things out. and she still hasn’t. hell, she’s not even sure where to really start. 

but at least she’s here.

starlight’s not sure what led her to arrive at the new and improve floor, especially since she knows it would be flocked with players rushing to find the secrets of this place. but she was here. just watching the train come and go. players getting on and off, all looking thoroughly disappointed as if they expected to find something new. 

and maybe she was hoping for the same thing. but that’s the thing about hope, isn’t it? everyone is going to be disappointed in the end. something she’s learned not so long ago.

“ let me guess. the boss is going to be the mutant ninja turtles. ”

Rue was the sweet one. Out of the three of them, Rue had a way of disarming you with just a smile. Even when you were at your maddest when he was fighting with Violet or with their parents. Rue would come, wrap her arms around him and tell him that it would be okay. That she was there for him. Then proceded not to leave you alone until you told her that you were okay. Rue was sweet but stubborn as hell. A Lannister trait if ever there was one.

Garrison scoffed, as he watched her dismiss the nurse( who clearly was a glutton for punishment.) When the door clicked closed, Garrison’s eyes didn’t leave it. Even as Rue took a seat on her stool he refused to look at her. He could only imagine how hurt she was how disappointed she was in him she must be at this moment. “ You’re going to be very bored.”

He sat there quietly arms crossed refusing to look at her. After ten minutes or so guilt hit him. It was Rue; his baby sister, and as hard as he was trying to act like he was in the room with Violet… he wasn’t. Sighing, he finally turned and looked up at her from his bed. He had no fight when it came to Rue… he would always cave around her.  “Where have you been anyway?” he said begrudgingly as he pulled at one of the leads on his arm.

rue felt comfort in the silence, a moment for her to breathe and relax her shoulders for the first time since seeing garrison after coming back. sure, it was bittersweet. she wanted to give him a hug and act like everything that he was going through could be put on pause so she could enjoy this small moment with him but she knew deep down that was unrealistic. garrison was struggling deeper than rue could try to figure out through just surface-level hints. he’d need to open up on his own time and even before that happened, nothing about this interaction would be close to normal.

her chest tightened slightly as he made eye contact with her for the first time, inhaling deeply before struggling. “out levelling up, trying to be as good as you and vi. carry a little more weight around here. especially in unity too.” rue spoke softly, arms moving to cross over her abdomen as she trained her gaze on him. “maybe my absence was a bit poor timing, hm? i left and suddenly you were getting munted every two seconds. mom would give you a proper slap to the back of the head, for sure.” there was no judgement in her tone, maybe a bit of light teasing even. she wasn’t sure how exactly to treat the situation but she was sure he was getting enough emotional responses to fill his cup enough.

“ i wish i knew how to talk about it. ” (Garrison)

rue bit hard on the inside of her cheek, hands folded neatly in her lap as she could feel her chest tighten. “i wish you knew too. i wish i just knew. without you having to say anything. so i could do something about this.” she takes a quick inhale, blinking as a small smile appears. “you deserve everything good, that’s pretty much the gist of it.”

[manipulxtcd]

“ please, tell me you have a plan. ” (Jal)

myth’s eyes went suddenly shifted to jal, frozen in place despite just being in a frantic state pacing across her wooden floors. “a plan? i am lacking so much plan right now i was about to answer you with a friends reference. how does one even plan for stuff like this? i might as well just tie syphon down and treat him like a child and control his every move.”

Eyes watered as a lump formed in his throat. Garrison avoided her eyes because he knew that the minute he looked into them again he would break. He was already broken, couldn’t she see it. Of course, she could. Everyone could. Garrison wasn’t someone she needs to see. Not like this.

He was ashamed, ashamed that he had gotten so weak. Avoiding everything and anything to do with Char, falling down a rabbit hole of sex and drinking just to numb the pain. And when that didn’t work, he lashed out. At anyone, or everyone. Garrison was tired, he didn’t want anything. He just wanted it all to end.

Instead, he was stuck in this bed for a few more days. His friend fighting for his life. His kid sister, standing in front of him. Asking him to tell her what was wrong and he just couldn’t…

“ I’m asking you to leave okay?” his eyes on his hand now. “ I promise I’ll be alright. You don’t need to see me like this. So just go home.” his words broken as tears filled his eyes.

her fingers curled into a fist at her sides, fingernails slightly digging into the soft skin of her palm as she attempted to keep her annoyance of his rejection to see her at bay. she didn’t want to lose the worry with anger. she wouldn’t get anywhere if she let that overwhelm her.

“don’t be this way, garrison.” there was a slight edge to her usual warm tone, her own eyes welling with some tears of her own. all she wanted was to come to see her brother, check on how his wounds are healing, figure out the different rumours she had heard but everything that could possibly go wrong was going wrong. the sound of the nurse walking back in to clean the glass made rue whip her head around. “it’s fine, i’ll clean it. make sure no one comes in please.” rue spoke gently, blinking away the mist from her eyes before turning back to garrison.

“i’m not leaving until you at least look at me. or maybe treat me like your actual family. it’s obvious you’re not alright and your pushing won’t make me leave. do your worst.” she was curt to say the least, pulling over a stool before placing herself firmly on it.

The sweet kind nurse that entred wasn’t Syphon’s regular nurse. Out of all the npc hospital staff, Margie was his favorite. Not that he showed it to her or anyone for that matter. Making a fuss as she would say- most of the time. At all hours of the day. Whoever, that nurse was that entered- she would now think twice about trying to take his food when he wasn’t done with it.

Syphon’s hand paused just as he was about to let the plastic cup go flying. As the shocking blue hues of his baby sister’s eyes meeting his own. Syphon hadn’t seen her in weeks. Avoiding her like the plague; he could deal with being handcuffed to Vi as she told him how stupid he was. Could handle the worrying concern that came from Cat and David. But he didn’t want to burden Rue. He couldn’t let her see him like this… so lost.

Dropping his hand to the side, he just looked at her for a little while longer. Before turning away, towards the window. The Blue sky- the last thing he saw before he woke up in this place.

Are you out of your mind?

Maybe he was? A sane person, wouldn’t sit on a hill in the middle of battle. With a bottle of liquor and drink himself into unconsciousness, while they were bleeding out.

“Maybe,” he chuckled humorously. Unable to meet her worried gaze. His voice broken filled with emotion as he chocked out “ Go away Rue… please.”

rue knew her absence was out of the blue, she was off focusing on levelling up to work towards bettering herself without realizing the disaster she was leaving behind. when she got back and got all the news from kitty and violet, she was left with a fuzzy outlook on things. part of her knew it was true but the other part desperately wanted them to be wrong, that garrison wasn’t drowning his sorrows away. but the shattered glass on the tiled floor made goosebumps appear over her neck, that it was turning out to be very real.

a frown fell softly over her lips as she walked up, the change of expression causing her eyebrows to almost slant completely as worry took over. she was walking so slowly, the irrationality of his actions making it hard to make out what was going to come next. but he wasn’t looking at her, her brother was still there but it was... almost cold.

“what?” her voice was strained with surprise at his statement. go away? she felt sick to her stomach. when was there ever a time garrison pushed rue away? “i... i came to see you. i’m not going away, what’re you on about?” rue mumbled out, now standing directly beside him with her arms hanging loosely at her sides. she was vulnerable, her entire body language showed that she was entirely open with her brother, just like always, but the situation was already breaking her down.

Location: Hospital in Nova

Players: Open @veliastart

Sad azure eyes looked out the window from his bed. Syphon had been admitted into the hospital a few hours before the battle had ended. A Raptor snuck up on them; thankfully ( depending on who you asked) syphon had a graze all things considered. The dinosaur hadn’t cut through his intestinal track. But he did slice him open, leaving him with three horizontal wounds on his abdomen. He got lucky…

Same couldn’t be said for Randy. 

His friend ( also drunk) had a chunk of his side missing; thanks to the same raptor. He lay in a medical induced coma, with Mandy at his bed side. She had come into his room the other day. Thanking him, telling him how happy she was that he had saved Randy’s life. And he just snapped, screaming bloody murder at her. Throwing objects at everyone that came into the room. This lasted for a good 20 minutes before a nurse got close enough to sedate him. 

As he heard the door open. Syphon’s piercing blue eyes turned towards the unwanted intruder. He didn’t want to see anyone, or talk to any one. Syphon wanted out… and he wanted a god damn drink. Reaching for the vase next to his bed, he threw it towards the door… the glass shattering upon impact with the wall.

“ What the hell are you looking at.” he growled reaching for something else to throw. “GET OUT!: 

myth wasn’t lying when she told kali she was going to visit garrison as soon as possible. she was busying herself with unity duties momentarily until she couldn’t focus well enough knowing the state of her brother. violet has already forewarned her of the idiocy he had going into the battle and she knew there was mental preparation she needed to be able to even speak to him. she loved her brother dearly, she’d choose his life over her own but she knew he was acting foolish. she just knew he didn’t need someone to tell him he’s a proper dumbass.

once she made it to the hospital at nova, she greeted an NPC nurse warmly, questioning quietly for her to lead her to syphons room. the NPC thankfully agreed without any weird fusses, keeping a steady pace as myth followed closely behind, eyes respectfully gazing forward so she wouldn’t look into a room and see something she didn’t need to see.

the nurse came to a slow stop, piking the female’s attention as she slowed her steps as well. she let the nurse open the door, listening to the overly sweet voice begin to fill the room before the skin-crawling sound of glass shattering hit her ears. “what the hell?” rue spoke in surprise, pulling the nurse back to enter the room just as he began to yell. “g-sypho- stop!” myth exclaims, confusion drawing her eyebrows together as she steps forward cautiously in case he actually did grab something to throw. “are you out of your mind?” myth breathed out.

kali: yes yes i’m familiar

kali: he’s okay, i can’t even judge how he’s feeling based off if he’s joking or not because he never stopped

kali: garrison was a perfect idiot going into this battle please get mad at him

myth: he never stopped? i'm sure he doesn't want you worrying over him

myth: he would. i swear he wants to give us a proper heart attack 90% of the time.
