Week Six

[letsplayamod]

You've survived, for lack of better wording, the latest week of trials and tribulations. This one had been more costly than most: Typhon's machinations have brought your group to nearly half the size it was when Athena first brought you to this island. Whether it ends with him or with you is still too soon to make out. One thing's for certain. Things cannot be allowed to continue as they are.

Speaking of continuing, the next floor has been revealed to you. Just how far down this island goes is a bit of a mystery, but you get the feeling that you're close to something important. Maybe that thing Athena wanted you to find before Typhon does. You can ruminate on that as you watch the waters below. Waves still lap at the cliffs, but it all seems lower than it did weeks ago. Like the ocean itself is shrinking...

That's my line.

Holy shit, that really you...?

[murchada]

U-Um... Yeah. Yeah, it's... me.

Us.

[oh. there he is. okay, Cerejeira, just be so normal and chill about this oh never mind she's crying]

[rockymountaindie]

Shit. Shit, uhh- uhhh—

[ The vision of Alex moves a little, as if trying to get closer to...comfort her, or wipe away her tears, or something, but. You'll feel nothing. ]

Shit. Sorry. I didn't mean to make you cry—

[ yeah it's fucking him ]

[murchada]

No, no, it's-- it's okay, you don't have to apologize, I just--

I thought I'd never see you again...

[rockymountaindie]

Hell, ah...

Me neither. Or...I hoped so. 'Cause, that'd mean...

[murchada]

...Mm. I'm... doing my best, to not make it happen like that.

But...

[ah, how does she do this? how does she put this into words?]

[rockymountaindie]

But what?

Are you okay?

1/2

[murchada]

No.

[ah, brutally honest, as per usual.]

But that's, um... I'm never okay, anyway, that's... It's fine. Just...

2/2

[murchada]

...We will see each other again.

Not like this. And not with me dying, either.

[rockymountaindie]

[ ... ]

I'm holdin' you to that. Okay?

1/2

[murchada]

Mm. More than okay.

It... [she lets out a breath. shaky. but determined.] It will happen.

2/2

[murchada]

...Promise.

[rockymountaindie]

[ Oh... Look at that. ]

If...if there's anything we can do where we are, we'll- I'll do it.

[eeeonetwothree]

ALEX…

…I AM SORRY. I COULD NOT PROTECT YOU FROM DEATH.

[rockymountaindie]

[ ... ]

Neither could I, so... In the same boat, there. Don't beat yourself up over it.

[eeeonetwothree]

IT IS HARD TO SAY WE ARE IN THE SAMR BOAT WHEN IT IS YOU WHO LOST YOUR LIFE.

BUT I WILL DO MY BEST TO BRING THIS TO AN END.

[rockymountaindie]

Carefully.

Please, I... I don't want anymore accidents, or... Or any of the rest of that.

[eeeonetwothree]

[ If he could, Omega would wince. ]

WE WILL BRING IT TO AN END. ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.
