doomed timeline AU!Ryotaro oh my god what am i doing

[kamenriderdeno]

Oi...Mundane.

This was a spur of the moment thing, right...? I hope so...

I don't want to go anywhere...I want to stay right where I am. Trying to erase the Alpha timeline was enough trouble, and we failed, I...I don't want to go through all of that again hopelessly trying to destroy another world's timeline...

You know we wouldn't succeed anyway. There's no point in it.

There's no point in anything.

Cut the whining, kid.

If we end up somewhere we won't fail. Noone there's gonna be able to do anythin' to stop us.

Just shut up and leave everythin' me, as usual.

[kamenriderdeno]

...

[Stare.

Looking away...looking down.

Pause. Bit of silence...then a nod, though he remains looking down.]

...okay.

[ryuutaros]

Wow, that's depressing ....

[kamenriderdeno]

...yeah.

You should try living in it. It's worse than it sounds.

[negatarosu]

...eh?

Imagin?

[Throwing a glance your way, Ryuuta.]

[sandsmemory]

Hahaha, of course you won't get around to changing any timelines giving up like that.

[kamenriderdeno]

I gave up trying to change things a long time ago.

I just wanted to end things but it didn't go as I'd hoped..

[sandsmemory]

[he claps his hands together, once.]

Congratulations on failing utterly!

[i_have_arrived]

Ryoutarou? The hell're you goin' on about?

[kamenriderdeno]

...uh.

[not sure if srs...

He has no idea how to deal with this.]

Thanks?

[kamenriderdeno]

Another imagin?

I suppose you wouldn't know. You all stayed behind after our timeline got destroyed.

I didn't think any of you would want to leave there though..

[negatarosu]

[Totally shadowing Ryotaro here bromotaros.]

Chh', that makes two of 'em. How many other imagin are plannin' on showin' up? Sheesh.

Just stay behind with the rest of 'em, we got this under control.

[next_gen_o]

You...gave up trying to save your own timeline?

[kamenriderdeno]

No, I'm not the Alpha timeline Ryotaro, I was from a timeline doomed from the start.

I was trying to destroy the Alpha timeline but...everytime you try it just splits off into a separate doomed timeline.

I don't think it's possible.

[next_gen_o]

What do you mean you don't think it's possible? You've--or I supposed the "Alpha" you has done it before.

The Ryotaro that I know would have never just given up if it meant people in danger.

[kamenriderdeno]

I guess that's where we differ then.

[next_gen_o]

Obviously. I'm amazed you're giving up so easily. But then, I guess that's why you failed, not any of this "doomed timeline" nonsense.

[sandsmemory]

It's nice to have an example of what I shouldn't do, after all. Destroying all of it's a bit much, but just taking out the right spots...

[i_have_arrived]

"Another Imagin"? [Geeze, just wrench his sandy heart why don't you.]

"ANOTHER IMAGIN"?!

What the hell kind of greeting is that, Ryoutarou?!

[--waitaminute. Negataros?]

The hell're you doin' here again?
