no such luck (canon is rune factory)

[scatteredflowers]

So I can't stay in Trampoli.

[Promises to avoid war or horror have to count for something, right?

...Right?]

Heh...

I'll be lost no matter what.

[Well, that's depressing. Any requests?]

Storms destroy the crops. We go hungry...but the storm doesn't know what it's done.

[...Thanks.]

There's nothing that I want. I just need to be alone and work.

[I'll keep that in mind.]

[Wow. Depressing.]

Baah.

[Why are you making me do this, mun?]

[rainbowing]

Come now! Lifes too short to be stuck in the muck like that!

[ daria. daria you're an elf. ]

Look on the bright side of things, like a rainbow! They always come out after big storms!

[scatteredflowers]

[...oh my god is that a monster

That's a monster...]

[...Kross crouches down to be on eye level with it. He hopes it doesn't run away.]

[sunshinewooly]

[Nope. Just gonna sit here.]

['sup.]

[scatteredflowers]

[sweet grimoire you're loud]

...I prefer the rain.

[Lifts his hand...

...drops his hand without stretching it out. He shouldn't get his hopes up.]

You have to be careful around here. Even monsters can't live freely.

[ RAINBOWWW ]

Oooh one of those mysterious artsy types, are you?

[scatteredflowers]

It washes everything clean...and quenches the plants' thirst.

[rainbowing]

Oooh a poem!? Tell me more!

[scatteredflowers]

...he slowly shakes his head, looking a little confused.]

[rainbowing]

You were on a roll! Here, lemmie' help - where were we? 'It washes everything clean, and quenches the plants thirst... '

Uhhh... ooh! 'Casting up a big bright rainbow into the heavens!'

[scatteredflowers]

[oh.]

I'm no poet.

...For what purpose?

ISN'T HE GREAT - oh lmao how ~ghostly~ will this thread be

[scatteredflowers]

To keep a meal on my plate and a roof over my head.

[He doesn't need anything more than that.]

THE BEST askdhfasfa. sorry I'm slow ;u;

[barelythere]

...That's it, huh...? No... no big hopes or crazy dreams...?

no worries

[scatteredflowers]

Dreams? [...] No. None of those would ever come true.

[rainbowing]

Nonsense! It was such a beautiful verse! It brought tears to my eyes!

Bravo! Encore!

[sunshinewooly]

[Micah waddles a bit closer, tilting his head curiously.]

Bah? [Why so glum, chum?]

[barelythere]

...Really...?

...I mean... they couldn't be that improbable... right?

[scatteredflowers]

Maybe for someone else. Joyful dreams don't visit me anymore.

[barelythere]

...Can I... ask why?

[scatteredflowers]
