[Roleplay] The Rebuilding - Continuation of The Aftermath

[Myst]

(( I'll be in/out because I have an essay to type ))

(No worries.

Expect slow replies from me too.)

 

[Beary]

"..Sage?"

 

[Myst]

I snap, irritated, "What is it? Why don't you just run off and do couple things?!"

 

[Beary]

"Sage, what's wrong?" I say, not getting the hint.

 

[Naiad]

I stay silent and watch Mehi walk away. Guess I'll get the presents set out.

I begin removing boxes from the bag.

-----------

I frown. "Sage, you okay?"

 

[Myst]

I roll my eyes; not wanting to repeat myself.

(brb food)

 

[Beary]

"Please.."

 

[Myst]

I repeat myself, growing angrier with each word, "What is it? Why don't you two just run off and **** each other? It's that obvious that you want to already."

(back)

 

[Naiad]

I sigh and sit down next to Sage. "What's wrong?"

 

[Beary]

I turn pale.
"Why are you so upset about something like that? Not that it's true.."

 

[Myst]

Growing exasperated, I mutter, "Just go away..."

Wow... are they really that dense?

I look at Dusk and say, "Everyone feels so divided right now... I hate it. It's like they only pay attention to their "lovers". While I enjoy being with Helix, I need to be around other people too or else I'll go crazy."

 

[Beary]

"And so everybody abandons the people they love for people they barely know?" I raise an eyebrow.
"I understand, but seriously: why are you so upset? Being upset won't do anything about it."

 

[Myst]

I stand up and start to walk away. "Just stop. You don't understand me."

 

[Naiad]

"...But that's how relationships always start. When you love someone, you give them your undivided attention. It's the 'rose-colored' phase of a relationship."

 

[Beary]

I bury my face in my hands, realizing I've only made things worse.

 

[Naiad]

I stand up and stretch.

 

[Myst]

I pause in my steps to glare at Gio. "What does that mean?"

 

[Naiad]

"The 'rose-colored' phase is when you simply can't get enough of the person you're in love with. It's the melding phase, where you need each other, and only each other.

Gradually, you'll begin to slowly return back to old habits. At that point, it doesn't mean you stop loving them, it just means that you don't always need to be around each other to understand one another."

 

[Myst]

I wake up in my dark, empty cell all alone. Realizing I was still naked, I quickly put my clothes back on.

I start to grin at the memory of what happened then frown when I realize the guard is gone. Wait... the guard is gone AND she left my door open. Looks like a good chance to freeze time and escape.

I help Sai set everything up. Once we're done, I look back and say, "Wow. It looks amazing. Think we're ready to call the others?"

- - - Post Merge - - -

I sigh. "Well, good luck with that. I'm leaving."

 

[Naiad]

I turn to Mace when I finish setting up the presents. "Almost....I'm going to go grab the cake. Be back soon."

I walk out of the garden and into the hallways.

I hope the chefs aren't mad at me....
