[Roleplay] The Rebuilding - Continuation of The Aftermath

[Myst]

"Whatever, dumb*ss. I'm going to sleep." I walk towards my bed and climb in the covers. I take my bracelet off for the first time and set it on the table beside me. "There's room in the bed. Want to keep me warm?" I ask teasingly.

 

[toxapex]

I slowly stand up from the couch. "Wh...what? You're... sleeping...?"

 

[Myst]

"Yeah." I say in a 'duh' tone. "It's late."

 

[toxapex]

"You're..." I look her up and down. "...Alive?"

 

[Myst]

I mentally facepalm. "Yeah..."

 

[toxapex]

I'm hit by a brick wall of emotions. I stand in silence, conflicted, for a while and ask, "...Do you have any idea... what you put me through?"

 

[Myst]

I sigh. "I'm tired... We can talk tomorrow."

 

[toxapex]

"No. We can talk now. What the hell were you thinking?" I try to keep my voice low, to a harsh whisper.

 

[Myst]

"I... I... don't know what I was thinking. I felt like I lacked a purpose and coming here gave me one but when I saw how it affected you... It broke me. Ask the others. They almost forced me to take depression pills. You're not the only one who suffered." I say bitterly.

 

[toxapex]

"You didn't have fake your death, though! Why the hell would you put everyone through that, Sage?! There's no other way you could've done it?! Maybe fake a runaway, or a kidnapping, or even just say you're going on f**king vacation?! Why did you fake your death?!" I realize that I've been yelling at her and look down.

 

[Myst]

Tears start to spill down my face. I mutter, "**** you, Helix... It's not always about you." I turn my head away and close my eyes.

 

[toxapex]

I grab her shoulder. "Listen, Sage, I'm sorry for that. But I just want some answers. Please. You know I'm glad you're alive, but I need to know why this was even necessary in the first place..." I blink back tears. She's been alive this whole time and all I've done is hurt her. Awesome.

 

[Myst]

I mumble, "In the morning, Helix... Just come sleep."

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

I widen my eyes. "NO!" I run over to the oven quickly and check on them.

(I WENT TO CHECK WHAT MY LAST POST WAS, GUYS WE BURNED THE CAKES! NO! NO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooOoOOoo! *shoots self*)

 

[toxapex]

I sigh. "Okay..." I stand still, unsure of whether she wants me sleeping on the bed or on the couch.

 

[Myst]

"Can you keep me warm?" I ask quietly.

 

[toxapex]

"I..." I'm surprised that she's still open to that idea after THAT. "Sure." I smile weakly and get under the covers next to her. I hug her, probably a little too tightly. I fall asleep within minutes.

 

[Myst]

I fall asleep inside Helix's warm embrace.

 

[Naiad]

((OOH! You un-invisible-inated! *totally didn't fall half-asleep and lie dazed in bed for an hour*))

((#few days late

[Beary]

I go back to my room, and sleep.
