Week 3.
Grace and Doug are dead. It seems that there isn't anything more to do but mourn your losses and try to move forward. The Transmitter's rules still hang in every room, a reminder of the only means of escaping this place. But surely no one else will give into them, right? Saturday is given to regrouping and rest; the static blares out early on Sunday, but at least there are no bodies to find today - it seems you're safe for now. The night before wasn't necessarily a peaceful one, however; you'll probably feel a bit groggy when you wake up, and it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost... Once again, however, it seems your efforts won't go unrewarded; another set of corridors have opened up, much in the same fashion as the other new area did last week. With them come new rooms to explore; maybe some of them will be to your liking. Or perhaps it's better to say that hopefully some of them will; after all, if the Transmitter gets her way, you may be here for a very, very long time. |
SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY
[OOC: Welcome to week three of Trustfell! Feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend. Don't forget to save those threads for coins and the activity check!
If you'd like to get in contact with the Transmitter, you can do so through text or the phone in your room!]

... Senpai will be saved.
I have no regrets.
no subject
[ She says this with - some degree of shock, actually. ]
no subject
It's for the best.
Nii-san... he can't hurt Senpai, not anymore. He can't use me, either.
[Neither can her grandfather, if she's dead. Which leaves Rin, but on that, Sakura will have to pray to the kindness hiding in the cracks of her sister's heart. Perhaps she will simply spare Shirou instead of kill him.
So Sakura believes, because she has no choice in that, either]
no subject
[ The hand still holds her's, but did she miss something? ]
no subject
[She shakes her head slightly]
What I did to myself... it's an attempt to destroy my consciousness, in a sense. I would go into a coma, and then die after that.
no subject
no subject
[A pause... and then because she's dug such a hole, it doesn't matter to her if she digs it a little deeper]
My body has been tampered with.
no subject
no subject
But that's changed... and there should be no way that's possible.
The Risen have already shown they're capable of things outside my understanding. So...
no subject
And your'e certain this couldn't be as a result of confusion about your "time," like my arm?
no subject
Her expression gives a slight crack]
But there's no way to reverse it. [Grandfather willingly loosening his control? Absolutely not. And there is nothing that can save her. Sakura forced herself to make a pitiful peace with that truth]
So... so I have to be dead or dying. There's no other way.
no subject
[ A beat ]
Ahh, except Asgore, I suppose.
no subject
I'd rather it only be me.
no subject
You know what, this is hard to ignore now. And so Nachetanya's going to state it directly: ]
Being a mage causes you suffering.
no subject
Being a mage is simply what it is. I don't hate it.
[No more than you would hate breathing]
no subject
Sakura, do you have an ambition?
no subject
[Just. Shock now. The other might as well be speaking another language]
no subject
no subject
[She's struggling. Her eyes flicker between the targets and Nachetanya's feet]
To protect Senpai.
no subject
[ She responds simply. Still holding her hand ]
no subject
Why? It's a goal, isn't it?
[Don't tell her that's not an ambition when that's all Sakura ever wants. That's all she can ever have]
no subject
Because ambition comes from within. That is a goal, to be sure. It could even be a way to live you life, but it can't be called "ambition." Ambition is a goal that you feel so strongly that you can't live your life any other way, something that you want and need so much that, that you desire so strongly that that goal can't be abandoned with your dying breath.
[ . . . ] I'm not saying you aren't devoted to this Senpai. Clearly, you are. But if your "goal" is simply to serve someone else... to me, that seems like you haven't yet found who you are.
no subject
So you're saying I'm empty.]
My feelings are-- [Abruptly biting teeth over her lips to keep them still, to keep from babbling too much]
... They come from within. I would do anything to keep Senpai safe. If I could come back from this and protect him, I would.
[That's all she has left to fill her. Her only light and sun. Without that, she's a puppet void of hope]
no subject
I don't doubt that, and I don't necessarily say that it's wrong.
[ She rocks on her heels ] Our situation isn't the best for it, but for the purposes of surviving here, I suggest that you think more about yourself, and about things you want.
no subject
Yes. [She answers after many silent breaths, voice once again demure. The word falls like a closed curtain.
The conversation is over.]
