A cold, delicate hand grabs yours and pulls. It pulls, and it pulls... there's a sense of urgency in this icy grasp, as well as a trace of reluctance. Abruptly the hand let's go, right as your vision fades to black, and for a brief moment, only a brief moment, your senses disappear. There's only the eerie sensation of weightlessness before your feet are settled back on solid ground again.

"You shut up! You gave her foolish ideals! How could you!"

Re: outside

[glorious]

...She inspired me towards those ideals in the first place. If not for her, I wouldn't be standing before you now like this.

Re: outside

[screwthatnoise]

She falls quiet.

You can only hear her labored breathing.

She's still glaring, waiting for something.

...What is it?

Re: outside

[screwthatnoise]

"This was a mistake, this was a mistake..."

Re: outside

[glorious]

[glancing around]

...You mean what she's done here...Or what you've done?

Re: outside

[screwthatnoise]

"What she's done. Because... You.."

She's trying to get up again, even with that sword pointed at her. Fuck sharp things, man.

How long have you been here? Why are you here?

Re: outside

[screwthatnoise]

She winces. Her voice is strained.

"I have been here since Hail started to need me... it hasn't been long. And I told you, I am here to remind everyone of how this heart should be run."

Re: outside

[glorious]

...Why is killing necessary in this heart?

Re: outside

[screwthatnoise]

"I must change it. Coping, the nurse, and Happiness... they're all useless."

Re: outside

[glorious]

...What are you then? And give me a more straightforward answer than 'what Hail deserves'?
