nightchild | does roxana know of my love for her....

[i have seen the light]

I won't make you do anything you don't want to do. [he spreads his legs out a little, wincing a little] So let me do what I want to do.

Are you thirsty or hungry? I can make a little something with my crystalline color.

[ binch get healed more..... roxana isn't saying that, but i am.

She doesn't looked pleased at his staying. ]

I don't care much for what you want to do. I don't need anything.

[stop he's fine, he's just got normie bones...

He doesn't say anything for a moment, as if trying to make a decision, then]

It's just as well. I don't really know what I can do right now... Funny, I can finally move now, but I feel just as frozen as I did a moment ago.

[ you chose right after everyone got to leave. you get to deal with this roxana. ]

Laugh like Malik, then. Become a pile of molten color and join Buzen in hell.

[He'd rather this Roxana than the one who never lets her emotions show? Even if she is saying something like that,]

I won't lie and say that doesn't sound tempting.

[a little dryly, but also like, sometimes you're so obsessed about someone that you consider it once or twice]

...But I don't think either of them are in hell. The prism wants us too badly to just let us go like that.

Should I take your life, so you can join him?

[ She already murdered one person today. What's another. It's too bad this is memshare week and not emotionshare this thread. There'd be some wildin' emotions here for someone who doesn't actually choose murder as her first option when possible. ]

Are you saying you think the Prism has control of us even if we die?

[i feel like roxana would have suplexed him if this was emotionshare week so that she could escape,

...he shrugs]

Just a feeling. I know a little bit about keeping people in one place, whether they die or not.

I don't actually want to find out for myself though. ...At least not yet.

[ on the whole, she hates memshare week more than emotionshare, but in the hour after killing malik, she would have hated emotionshare the most. she'd have stabbed anyone who tried to touch her in an emotionshare post malik's goatening.

She looks over at him sharply. ]

What do you mean by that?

[ the keeping people in one place bit. ]

When I give a person a dream they like, they give a piece of their soul to me.

[he smiles, though it doesn't reach his eyes.]

It gives them power in the dream, so they can interact with it however they like. In exchange I can keep them there for however long -- maybe even forever. Their soul's still mine, and they can keep dreaming even if they end up dying in the real world.

[he knows this isn't the same situation, but.... he's had his thoughts.]

[ i see. this is how itsuki is yan..... adjacent. ]

That is powerful. The ways you could use that....

[ itsuki, your childhood with your sister. ]

It's dangerous in the wrong hands.

[ and in the right hands. ]

...I always put in a safeguard. A trigger, so that the dreamer can wake up on their own.

[but sometimes they don't want to, and he has to fulfill their wishes yan-adjacent style]

As long as there's a definite end, then the dreamer will be set free. The situation's different here, but... I still feel like there's some kind of finale waiting for us.

You think all this murder is building up to something. [ ... ] It has to be doing something with all that color.

[ If Itsuki thinks the Prism is keeping the dead somehow and it's all about color, it would make sense it'd be using the dead's out of control color somehow.

Especially for how Malik ended in molten color. ]

[he nods slowly]

The place was black and white before we arrived. And like the residents said, using color helps this place. If it's a source of strength, then it stands to reason that it'll want more from everyone here.

[he's pretty much in the 'prism is the villain' camp. it's hard not to be, after what they just saw]

[ She nods, too. ]

For what exactly, we still have to find out, but there's no denying it's using our color for something.

...Yeah. For Mu-kun's sake, and for the others.

[he says, a bit wearily, but he's encouraged by Roxana's words. especially after witnessing something like that,]

How are you feeling?

[ STOP I'M TIRED I NEED TO SLEEP

HE

idk he can't feel her feelings today. She doesn't shrug. But maybe he can get that sense. ]

I will be fine.

[ara ur so funny i love you

Itsuki like 'I notice the future tense here', but what is a moment on a Sunday after a traumatic experience if it's not spent allowing others to keep their grief to themselves, or their feelings.]

...I believe you. You'll get up again, sooner or later.

[without his assistance, even. he'll let her keep the coat though,]

[ he's lucky she's not stupid enough to pretend that much that she's fine. she knows it wouldn't be believable. ]

I always do. For every time I fall down, I rise again. And again.

...Yeah, that's something I'd like to see.

[he believes her, and he won't touch her in order to help her up, but. he'd still like to wait, until she can.]

Can I stay here until you do?

[he knows she meant metaphorically, but right now he means physically.]

[ i'm dead so i'll tell you even for as volatile as roxana has been this thread, itsuki chose a lot of correct dialogue options

She looks at him with a cold expression. ]

You may.
