[Roleplay] The Rebuilding - Continuation of The Aftermath

[Naiad]

"You both need to calm down, you act as if everything on this world hinges on others' pain." I walk over to Blaze, "I told you that this wasn't a good idea, dummy. Now there's blood all over the carpet." I hold my hands above his body and close my eyes.

 

[Myst]

Why did it have to be that sword? My one true weakness... that whole spit thing was total bull****... I only faked the appearance of growing paler and dying... but that sword? I'm screwed... how does she still have it?!

- - - Post Merge - - -

"Whatever. The tension is gone, right?"

I smile creepily at Blaze, "Yes, thank you." Although I would've preferred more blood... and less him... maybe a death...

- - - Post Merge - - -

(Oh, god... Sage just upgraded to creepy...)

 

[Hikari]

"Okay, this is way too much for me to handle at the moment. I'm going to my apartment." I reply, and escape before I end up like Blaze.

(Going to sleep, bye!)

 

[Naiad]

I gasp in pain as the negative energy rushes into my body. There's a lot of it, but most of it's emotional. He's upset about something. Probably because I forced him to talk about his relationship.

(Going to sleep, bye!)

(( Goodnight ^^ ))

I stand up when I finish healing, "You should be fine now, but a shower and a change of clothes is in order. Preferably before we go back to my house."

 

[Myst]

(Going to sleep, bye!)

(Night.)

"Um... this might be weird but can I have that sword?"

I reply firmly, "No. It's my sword."

"Sai, can I have some help here?"

- - - Post Merge - - -

"Sure. I'll take it here. That okay, Sage?" I wink at her.

- - - Post Merge - - -

"But... you live practically next door..."

 

[Naiad]

I shrug, "Can't really help you there, wish I could. And Sage, just so we're clear, this was a one time deal. Don't bloody everything next time you see him."

 

[Myst]

(He charms every girl. Sai feel jealous yet? XD)

- - - Post Merge - - -

"But... but... fine..."

I smirk. "So about that shower?"

"Nope. Go to your own place."

 

[Naiad]

(( Sai feels slightly upset, but she has a strict sense of "He isn't mine." If he did that when they're a thing, she'd cause a huge fuss.))

"I'm going to the kitchen." He really is a ****ing flirt. I should leave him alone.

You'll find that you can't. Leaving someone you love isn't easy, but being with them isn't easy either. Love is very complicated, but Dad was great at it.

But he manipulated people.

Honey, love is a game that we all play to win. You can't win without manipulation.

 

[Myst]

"I'll be in the bathroom. Knock if you need me or just walk in." I wink at both girls before walking into Sage's master bathroom.

"Ugh... he's so stubborn..."

 

[Naiad]

I gulp down a glass of water to calm my nerves.

What should I do?

Play the game, but don't get too invested, especially not in this one. I don't trust him to stay for long even if you do manage to grab him.

(( inner monologue Sai is great ))

 

[Myst]

I send Sai a thought as I join her in the kitchen. "You okay?" I open the fridge and grab myself a water.

- - - Post Merge - - -

I start to sip at the bottle while I wait for an answer.

 

[Naiad]

I look up from my water, shaken. "Ah, y? yeah."

 

[Myst]

(Don't worry. Sai is one of the people that Sage does not read the mind of unless she's having a silent convo.)

 

[Naiad]

(( Good, because Sage would not be prepared for how much Sai internally beats herself ))

 

[Myst]

I say aloud this time. "I'm worried about you." I pat her shoulder as I hear the shower turn on.

 

[Naiad]

I tuck my hair behind my ear, "Why?" I ask, trying not to come off as nervous.

 

[Myst]

(( Good, because Sage would not be prepared for how much Sai internally beats herself ))

(Others she doesn't trust: she's in their mind as much as she can.)

"Well, I haven't seen you with Orion much... how is that going?"

- - - Post Merge - - -

I laugh quietly to myself as I start to hear singing coming from the shower. Oh, god...

- - - Post Merge - - -

(He's singing some random song about Holly. Idk)

 

[Naiad]

I grab Sage's hands and look into her eyes, "C— can I tell you something?"

 

[Myst]

(Or actually, he's singing that song you shared when Orion died. Perfect.)

- - - Post Merge - - -

Slightly taken back, I quickly recover and flash her a friendly smile. "You can tell me anything."

 

[Naiad]

(( This one?

owo ))
