brians lore has axyl in it heh sooo.. ok..? here.. ok..
Day 2 Uncommons
Stella and Claudie aren't right. Their eyes have red tint to them, are they getting enough sleep?
That's not what worries me, its Axyl too. My own 'sibling' is avoiding me, come on. They're my best friend, why are they not paying attention to me anymore? Have I done something wrong?
I heard sobbing from the kitchen recently, too. I should follow the noise, maybe for once I should care for others instead of Axyl.
I approached the noise after a few minutes of complementary, and..
My heart shattered into a million pieces, a heavy guilt feeling quaking in the depths of my stomach. I opened my mouth, but all that came out was a shakey sigh. I've never seen axyl so, broken before. A million daggers pierced through me when we locked eye contact, for once I couldn't rip it away.
They made their way to run, but I lunged forward and grasped their arm, raising my other gloved hand to tap their cheek, convincing them to notice me again.
Their eyes.. It was just the same, reddening and weary like the others, I can't let Axyl go missing today too, can I?
Just as I was about to speak, Axyl sniffled.
No, I can't just stand there I need to do something! I was between two decisions, one I've never done before and always pushed away..
I never liked hugs, or giving them. But.. Axyl, they've always been there for me, listened, seeked I.. I can't just let them sob, it'll break us both.
I felt them try to shriggle out of my grasp, but before I could even think I pulled them close, my arms desperately wrapping around them and my head resting on their shoulder
I've never done this before, I'm a freak, aren't I?!
I pulled away, pulling my hands away and letting them fall beside me.
I saw their eyes shoot open, no longer that half-lidded, pathetic expression.
I needed to talk about them, about what the hell was going on and about Dandys behaviour.
But they were gone.
Day 3 Uncommons
I think it's best I don't approach Axyl for today, even if that feeling in my chest stabs me a thousand times. Today, I searched for Stella.
She was always somewhere, first it's the lobby, then the entrance, her room.. she just wasn't in one spot. It was hard to find her.
I know I've always been alone, independent.. but why is it now that I'm seeking someone?
Stella was a nice friend, caring and enthusiastic about everything. She was a helping hand, really..
Why am I only so caring now? Maybe I should just go find brightney in the book club.
I entered, the place was quiet as usual, but.. No greetings from brightney? I bit my lip, why was everything so weird recently? So peculiar and such an arcane..
I fiddled with my gloves, rubbing my wrists gently as my gaze wandered, scanning the books in view.
I grabbed a book, dusting off the cover when in the corner of my eye I noticed Astro.
I haven't talked to him properly, he was just an apprentice or acquaintance. I don't know why my toon handler wanted us to interact so badly.. But at least xes gone, I never liked xem anyway. Astro wasn't the person I was looking for.. Where are certain toons when I need them? Always there when I don't need them..
I returned the book to its old, unclean, tranquil solitude, ignoring the glance Astro gave me.
I found myself getting tired, tired of what's been going on.
I adjusted my monocle, walking past the storage room.
My eyes widened.
My mood dropped, my fists clenching as I froze in my spot.
I walked back, noticing the ichor under the door.
That's when I snapped.
I twisted the handle, trying to unlock the stiff door.
I ran, ran to the entrance where Dandys shop was, not there. HE WASN'T THERE.
In a swift movement, I slid over the counter; then head for the door behind. I burst open the door and grasped the spare key, closing the door behind me with a loud thud.
I sprinted towards the storage room, panicking as I kept missing the keyhole, before making it in and twisting it to unlock. When I get in here, I need to tell Axyl and save them along with the others.
I opened the door frantically..
Mouth agape, I felt my legs weak. My eyes twitched, shot open as I felt tears threaten to break free from imprisonment
".. Do you think we'll have a happy ending in another universe?.. "
Broke out Shika's voice weakly, her grip tightened around Axyl's waist
".. I hope so.. I love you, Shika. "
They replied, silently dying in each other's arms
I stood there, stuck in a moment of shock. I was too late.
There was no going back.
It's all Dandy's FAULT.
Day 4 Rares
I've lost the one person I cared for the most.
I couldn't leave my room, it's all me, me. I could've saved them, if only I was a few minutes early I could've supported them both in some way. I couldn't leave my room, I was surrounded by chains of suffer and torment that locked me in place.
Day 5 Rares
I woke up, pain never leaving my body. I still missed them, I missed Axyl, Stella, Boxten,Tisha and Brightney. I haven't seen Claudie and Valerie, they must've been taken by this 'infection' too. I looked around the ichor-marked building, was there any way to stop him? (him being Dandy) No. When I see him however, he will NOT be shown mercy..
Perhaps today I should find Atlas.
I searched, far and wide. And desperation mixed with panic filled my mind. I was holding onto my last straw, is he okay?
I can't break my tough exterior
I can't have a meltdown now, can I?
I can't lose everyone.
Unintentionally, I gave up. Hours, it's been hours. It's been days even. What is going on in that stupid head of that sadistic flower?
Does he WANT everyone in pain?
I gave up. Entering my room and falling into the corner with my head buried in my gloved hands.
I'm worked up, overwhelm taking over and dominating me.
I need to stop him, I can't lose the mains too. I've already lost Axyl, what have we done to deserve this?
