Week 5

[airlockedmods]

[As with the weeks before, life in the Fantasy Sweet returns to something resembling normalcy with shocking efficiency. The second floor rest area and Adventure Zone Death Orb Room are spotless again, the demon glitter has been vacuumed, the deflated orbs have been replaced. It's like none of it ever happened, like three more friends aren't dead and stored away in the guest house morgue.

There's a new floor to explore, their "reward" for a job well done.]

[A couple weeks ago that statement would have made her so sad, she'd have argued about the best of people and how not everyone needs to be feared. But looking around the room now, at all of these people she's come to call friends, all these dark pasts laid bare...

Maybe Nari's right to be afraid.]

Never have been before... maybe that's silly but- [A shrug]

[everylittlesecret]

Because you could read minds you probably didn't have to be afraid?

[It's easier to avoid danger that way?]

[goteachother]

[She nods, looking sheepish.]

It's... easier somehow? When you know what people's motivations are. Not to be afraid.

[And this is precisely why Ardyn is so terrifying. His motivation is so spiteful.]

[everylittlesecret]

I think... it would make my fear worse.

[Would make her want to end things in a not so nice way just to get the voices to stop. She doesn't want to know what others are thinking all the time.]

[goteachother]

's all I've ever known so... It's scarier for me, I think? Not knowing what makes people do what they do.

Nothing's predictable here but... I kinda wish it was. [It was so much more comfortable then. when things made sense. Even now, at home, back in New York nothing made sense anymore. Predictable was safe at least.]

[everylittlesecret]

Predictability.... sounds really nice right now.

[She's so close to just throwing her hands up and quitting. All this fear 24/7 is wearing her out.]

[goteachother]

[It's exhausting, being so afraid all the time. The only reason Queenie's been handling it as well as she has is because, with the war and Grindelwald... everyone's afraid all the time. It's been that way for most of her life.]

If only things were that easy.

We'll get through. Somehow. We gotta.

[everylittlesecret]

Yeah. What else can they do to us each week that they haven't done already?

[SHE SAYS THIS A DAY BEFORE KIP DIES ahahahahaha... excuse me, her mun is dead inside.]

[goteachother]

[She's thought the same thing about Grindelwald. Surely the papers can't tell her there's anything more horrifying than the last awful thing he's done. But nearly every day there's something new in the Ghost that Tina tries to hide from her. She knows better than to think like that. But Nari doesn't need any help on the paranoia front.]

Exactly. It'll work out. We'll make sure of it.

[WHY DO YOU HURT ME LIKE THIS.]

[everylittlesecret]

And if it doesn't? Well, I have some tricks up my sleeve.
