Heart Game: Duality - Round 2

[idolpro]

Your sleep is restless, and it's hard to settle as your eyelids refusing to stop twitching, and you can feel an itch at the back of your mind, flashes of uncomfortable thoughts dipping in and out of your dreams, constantly interrupting your tries to relax. ... Are you even asleep?



...



Apparently you were, because you wake up with a start, cheek pressed uncomfortably to steel flooring and flickering lights overhead. Unfortunately, you don't feel very rested at all.

That's real little then. You've still got sooo much learning left to do, so no one should be getting mad at you for still needing to practice now.

[flamebound]

...but he does.

[learntofly]

He's wrong.

[flamebound]

...

But. He still does.

[learntofly]

... You don't deserve it, okay? No matter how mad he is, it isn't your fault.

[flamebound]

...

[he squares his shoulders, but doesn't reply]

[learntofly]

... It's okay if you think I'm wrong too, but can you promise to think about it before you decide that?

[flamebound]

[he makes a face, then he pouts]

I'll... think about it.

[learntofly]

Good.

Do you want to come back with me and Intensity? I can show you where there's so many more cats and toys.

[flamebound]

... okay.

[learntofly]

Great. You should be able to meet Angel too when we get there, and I bet you'll have a lot of fun with her.

[flamebound]

Is everyone here...?

[learntofly]

A lot of us are. There's me, Intensity, Gadget, Angel, Silence... I didn't see anyone else from our unit though.

[flamebound]

...I see. That is a lot.

[learntofly]

But it's nice, right? It was a relief for me to see I wasn't alone.

[flamebound]

... I have not had so many people I've known before. It is nice, yes.

[learntofly]

That just means your luck's been getting better.

[flamebound]

...I hope so.

[learntofly]

I know it is.

[ Stands back up and offers him her hand ]

[flamebound]

[takes her hand after a moment of hesitation]

[learntofly]

[ Time to lead this kiddo back to where Duality's heart dorm is ]

[flamebound]

[At least you won't experience the memories a second time.

You can't go up the basement stairs though, the door is shut, remember?]
