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.]

...

[Heart's confidence slips for a moment, as Angel's words remind him for a moment of some of Brain's final words. Not to himself, but to Medic...

"I want you to make him smile again."

...Such an idiot, for someone so smart.]

Yes, I hope so as well. [It's going to be hard.] I hope that we'll all be able to achieve happiness after this.

[A week prior, she would have said, enthusiastically, that she was certain they would get there. Now, she simply offered a small, weak smile, and hoped that would suffice.]

Yes. A happy ending for all of us would be nice.

[myocordial]

...What would that mean for you? A happy ending. That is, when we all make it out of here... What would you do then?

[When. Not "if". He refuses to make their eventual freedom just a possibility.]

[brokencode]

[Everyone here kept arguing for "when," and each time, Angel couldn't help but feel all the more doubtful. None of this she said out loud, however. She did not want to start a self deprecating argument all over again.]

I... do not know. To be honest, I am scared to leave. I don't want to be forced to go back home.

[myocordial]

Understandable, of course. I don't want to see you return there either.

Perhaps you could go with someone else. Go somewhere else entirely.

[It's nothing but a hypothetical now, of course. But if the return trip ends up being in their control...]

[brokencode]

I would... like to stick with Rhys, if he would have me. But that's... that would imply going back to Pandora. [Not a fun thought to consider.]

[myocordial]

I'm sure he would. And... I imagine it will be difficult, yes. Considering everything.

However, at the very least you wouldn't be alone.

[brokencode]

Either way it is... not exactly something I want to think about. [Knowing what she did about Rhys's memories, it seemed as if Pandora would never be safe from Jack.

[myocordial]

Yes, of course. I'm sure there is a solution, though. The last thing that needs to happen is anyone ending up unhappy after finally getting out of here.
