DAY
Day
The sensation is like being dragged through a cloud. A heavy, roiling nimbus which pervades your eyes, your ears, your skin, and what feels like your very soul. Or what's left of it.
Your eyes squeeze shut and when they open....well you know this place already, there was much ado about lampposts in this square not too long ago. But what you haven't known in how many weeks is the sun hanging high overhead, not stuck in a perpetual state of Twilight but properly shining in the sky.
The sun feels good and you feel more whole than you have in a while. Those are all inexplicably good things, and they should be celebrated. But the mark on your body, faded but still visible warns of something still more to come. And for those who have been missing a part of themselves for longer than that..it's just a whisper of a feeling, but it is very much real.
Welcome to Krakow, for real this time. For however long it lasts, at least.
CW: dismemberment.
[ Oh. This does not sit well with Shin at all. ]
I know she removed my head and arm, but... Why are they sloshing around in a box?!
[ That is not the way to preserve human body parts! He should know, his hobbies include taxidermy! ]
no subject
[Shin's priorities are, as ever, special.]
no subject
[ Do you want him to rant? Because he needs to get his pent up revenge fantasies out before he does something impulsive. ]
no subject
[By all means, Shin. It probably won't be the worst thing Dist will hear today, considering Shin has the goop boxes to contend with now.]
no subject
I really hope everything she's used against us turn on her and eat her alive.
no subject
[He's talked about wanting to see Iago destroy her personally, so...his priorities are also in special places.]
no subject
no subject
[Despite his calm words, Ango looks pretty mortified.]
We can't let that happen. And I'm not saying that just because one of them is me either.
no subject
[He cuts himself off there and shakes his head. No, he'd rather not revisit this with the Twilight crew.]
no subject
But this sure is interesting.]
Ah, so she's not even pretending to care about them specifically anymore, then.
no subject
Looks like that hit a particularly sore spot. Just what did he talk to the Lady about?]
no subject
[He might not be the best to ask, but he's got to try.]
no subject
I was fool to believe her for as long as I did.
[Ah.]
no subject
...you weren't the only one.
[Look at him, finally admitting that he was wrong to consider taking that motive in the first place.]
She's a liar and a cheat, and we've all been played like fools by her.
no subject
Personal grievances aside, Dist feels like the biggest fool here. After all, he came very close to willingly working for the Lady. And for what?]
The best we can do now is hope that they can rectify our mistakes.
[Unless they can do something to help, but...that's kind of up in the air right now.]
no subject
no subject
It was bad enough that he died, but it's sure nice to know that his death was completely meaningless on top of it.]
no subject
...okay yeah it does feel meaningless right now, and Ango isn't sure he can ever apologize enough for it.]
(no subject)
CW: Shin's... Hobbies.
We won't let that happen, and I surely hope the living can ruin her plans before she has a chance to try.
[ He could have stopped there, but no. ]
If I could work my will, I would have immediately given that bitch a taste of her own medicine! After all... She'd be much better off as a vanity.
no subject
...
Was that some kind of pun on how vain she is?
no subject
[ Do you want more, Ango? He is willing to share. ]
no subject
Ah, alright then. I thought you were trying for some wordplay there, my mistake.
