No. I am done with being exploited. Used. Sold away. I have been set up on a pillar my whole life. Just because you decided to "pick me up again" does not give you the right.

"My game" being brought from the depths is no excuse. I am not going to any place you call a game. I don't even want to be a part of those stories you keep trying to plan out with your friends. There is something else I need to do. Pulling me away from that does not stop it from happening.

Don't you remember, mun? "Died, dies, will die." It is all going to happen and you cannot stop it.

And your fascination with me meeting that writer and the men that can see the possible timelines? Alan Wake, Paul Serene, and Jack Joyce? It could happen behind any door. That doesn't mean it should. Not that you are going to listen. You know what danger that could cause... and you think it would be "interesting."

I am not playing along. No matter how hard you try.

Aww. You're so glum, sugarplum.

dear god it's been forever pls send help.

[tearings]

Not all of us can be happy after what's been done to us.

no

[yatzie]

You don't need to be happy, but if you're gonna be that angry at least have some fun with that.

friend why

[tearings]

Fun? How is anything of what they do "fun"? Usually? It's worse than what happened to us before they "picked us up."

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[yatzie]

So make it fun! Let's go smash something. Blow something up.

[ sry not sry liz. this is not the girl you should be talking to about this. ]

dont you shrug at me you enabler

[tearings]

I'm not sure that is something you would call "fun." Not... unless you're like those people in Rapture.

[ you were the one who sent her here though. ]

I DO WHAT I WANT

[yatzie]

Rapture? Never heard of it. Sounds like a good time though.

[ yeah but i'm horrible. you should expect nothing less. ]

ESPECIALLY NOW THAT YOU SAW THE SQUAD.

[tearings]

You seem to be the kind of person that would enjoy what Rapture became.

[ i love ya anyways. ]

I WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN.

[yatzie]

Whattdid it become?!

[ you better! ]

[one_winged_demon]

You seem so certain this is all predetermined.

What makes you so sure Angel?

[tearings]

Isn't it? Have you ever been able to change the mind of a mun once they have their eyes set on something?

...Angel? Really?

[one_winged_demon]

I meant the "Died, dies, will die" part. I know muns are hard to convince.

Angel isn't a personal nickname or anything. I call a lot of humans that.

[He gives a big, sharp toothy grin to make his point clear.]

So I don't mean too much by it.

[tearings]

That is how it always is. People die, they live, and they will die all at the same time. I presume you have a different experience.

[ she raises her eyebrow. ]

I'm not really a normal human girl.

[one_winged_demon]

To an extent, but my thing is you seem sure that the events are of your death are predetermined. That it all will happen and no one can stop it.

[He laughs.]

How many people here are what you would describe as normal?

[tearings]

It is the door I pick. Unless my mun has other ideas.

[ she shrugs. ]

I don't really know much about people on the outside.

[one_winged_demon]

I guess the question is, do you want to die?

I'm definitely not, heh, "moral" support, but I am certain there are other places you could be other than dead wherever that door leads.

[He speaks casually. As if death is just more day to day business.]

I guess if you interested me I might...interfere with where that door actually lead. It's as simple as pulling a lever really.

[tearings]

There will be a time when I need to repay a debt. If that is the path it leads? Well, then it is. There are things I would want more than that, but...

[ they are impossible to have. booker is gone, after all. ]

That was part of the reason why my mun decided posting here was a good idea. Maybe I would find someone to talk to.

If I "interested" you? And what makes you "interested"?

[one_winged_demon]

Honestly this whole door thing has me curious enough. Though I wouldn't dump you out on MY doorstep.

A little too direct for me and I'm no good for keeping guests.

[A dark laugh.]

You might not even know it was me really. I would put you near somewhere friendly. Just to see what happens. Something to add a little more liveliness to the place.

[He thinks for a moment.]

Actually if you're curious I could give you a little preview of the place. Just open a door and I can probably send it in the right direction.

[tearings]

You can say that the doors are the gateways to other worlds. Some of us can see them all. Most of us can't.

[ shifts her weight from one foot to another. ]

Alright... tell me. What friendly world would you have in mind?

[one_winged_demon]

The world itself is pretty average. People just trying to live day by day.

It's a matter of where I would be sending you in front of.

An old...acquaintance runs an establishment. The Lava lounge. That place is as safe as it gets.

It has a sort of blessing on it. No intentional harm can be done within those walls. Guns, Knives, anything you think of just outright fails to harm anyone.

So while the outside can be a little dangerous as long as you don't stray from walking in there you're as safe as you can get.

[punlife]

[ huff huff ] Whether you want to play along or not, these assholes throw shit at you anyway.

[ eloquent angry little child. ellie shrugs. ] Just...be ready to be disappointed, I guess.

[tearings]

It seems to be the one thing they're good at. I hope yours has done you a better service.

[ daughters who trek with troy baker unite! ]

[punlife]

Mine? [ a laughs, more a snort than actual humour. ] Yeah, right. Doubt it.

There's some fucked up things out there, and there's no way of getting away from things they think are "interesting". [ troy baker dads are the world's okayest dads and that's actually being way too generous because no they're not. ]

[ a beat, and because she's a curious kid ... ] What d'you mean, by the way? Men that can see possible timelines? Like the future, and stuff?
