[ there is a static hum on everyone's PCD, as the screen goes black. it starts to whisper, before ghostly voices seep through the communication lines ]


thicker than water
and harder to _clean

but true ties are on the inside
which makes them messy to ^connect
the spots we tried some didn't fit

do not forget

we tried to believe

Right... I believe you.

And you didn't answer. What's not to forget?

[adstring-npc.livejournal.com]

...

we can't remember

should've written it down

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

[Blink blink] You... forgot? ...You're kidding right?

At least one of you should be able to remember. If not, what would be the point of warning us?

[adstring-npc.livejournal.com]

one might remember

it's all in the intention, right?

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Why do I even...

...They're off? Where did they go then?

[adstring-npc.livejournal.com]

around

and over there

it's hard to keep track

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

O-kay. Let's start with an easier question.

Where are you? ...Are you in the Inner City?

[adstring-npc.livejournal.com]

sometimes

usually

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Where you there when some of us tried to get inside?

Where you angry that they tried?

[adstring-npc.livejournal.com]

yes

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Because they could have found you?

[adstring-npc.livejournal.com]

already did

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

...

Why didn't you just show yourselves then? If they had been able to see you, surely they wouldn't have run into you.

I have another question for you. Will you answer?

[adstring-npc.livejournal.com]

they would've gotten stuck

maybe

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

You mean like Medusa? ...People see you and they're turned into stone statues or something?

You can deprive people of one of their abilities when they die. Could you give someone back something they've lost? Or cure them of a disease?
