Week 4

[airlockedmods]

[After everything that this case was, you probably don't want to deal with anything else. But you wake up on Sunday, just like before, with some new memories, and some new stores to check out.

Let's see what this week brings.]

Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

(( Don't forget to check in, and check your memory regains! You can also stop by the gacha machine and Xander's office hours. ))

[Pyrrha's not here right now, her spirit has been crushed under too much regret and anxiety.

But she does feel it, even if she mistakes it for her own shaking at first. She turns her arm to check her PIP, tears still slipping from her eyes.]

[airlockedmods]

What happened wasn't your fault, Pyrrha Nikos.

[surprise, it's the catalyst for the big meeting fight]

[tokencanadian]

[She sniffles, not that Lady Consequence probably knows.]

I know. But it doesn't make it better.

Because I killed Penny Polendina, Beacon fell. I failed so many people.

[airlockedmods]

I understand. The feeling of failing people you care for is overwhelming and paralyzing. It's one of the worst things I can imagine.

So much was put on your shoulders, dear girl. Too much for someone your age.

[...]

There was a time where I didn't believe that. I'd always believed that I was blessed with amazing talents, and I wanted nothing more then to use those talents to help people.

I took on too much, and I know I did. But I didn't want to disappoint anyone.

I just wanted to help people.

[There's a long delay before there's another reply.]

My apologies. Unexpected circumstances.

[Another, much shorter pause.]

She wouldn't blame you for what happened, Pyrrha.
Even if you can't help but blame yourself.

[tokencanadian]

Hello?

[That... sure is a thing. She sits there, staring at the message with more and more confusing before more comes.]

Thank you, I hope if I ever do see her again... somewhere, I can apologize for what I did, even if I wasn't to blame.

[It's her turn to pause.]

Is everything alright?

[airlockedmods]

Fine now. Nothing for you to worry yourself over.

[Ahem.]

Tis a vast universe. Maybe you will get the chance someday.

[tokencanadian]

You'll find that I worry about quite a lot.

[She's the Mom Friendtm]

Maybe. I'm not sure how exactly she was... created. So there could be a chance.



Do you think you can keep a secret?

[airlockedmods]

I like to think I'm good at keepong secrets. I likely wouldn't be alive now if I was not.

So, as you kids say, "shoot".

[tokencanadian]

I suppose that's true, I'm sorry.

[She chuckles softly, bitterly.]

I thought about it, the motive. It might have been just for a second or two, but... I guess I just thought about everything back home. The Vytal festival, the Fall Maiden, Penny... It could have been different. I could have thrown the match, I could have done the procedure. Things would be fine, and no one would be dead.

I guess that's how they compel you to kill.
