Of course I do. [ his entire life has been one unhappy ending after another. but... ] But I think I always want to try when it matters. Especially when it seems like the people who need them to most won't be able to get them themselves, you know? It's what we did after we left the clothing shop. We went to Ballister's and we got weapons to go fight the director lady.
Yup. He's right. That was sort of our only plan...Reigen was actually sort of cool about it. He stayed below to try and distract the director so Will and I could climb the rafters to free you. It almost worked out the way we wanted it to.
...something went wrong. Like. Um. Really wrong? But it's okay, you and Reigen were able to talk and find a way to help us. He took care of the director, too.
And neither should you. [ just throwing that out there. ] Because...that's what it felt like. That this was a story you've lived through. And we wanted to fix the ending to make it better.
You're still here, aren't you? The story's going to end however you want it to end. It's like I told you before...you've got time to rewrite the ending if that's what you want. [ and they're here to help her, too. ]
[ i joke a lot about him being a bat, but he is also slight cat-kin which means he just bonks back gently. ]
Dude, like I know how I want mine to end either? I don't think you have to know right away. That's...kind of the cool thing about having the options, as long as people are giving them to you. You're a little more free to decide for yourself.
she'll think about this, but for now, she kind of just nods a little, and goes quiet. she doesn't want to talk about what's waiting for her as far as endings back home, not when he's been through whatever it was today, so... for now, she just will sit with him and keep him company until they figure out curfew.]
[ that's fine we are closing this since he won't press her more than he has. everything feels bad man for multiple reasons. but i'm just coming back here solely to say that if she lets him he's probably going to end up falling asleep while petting her and cuddling her cat form so nimona's stuck for a while until either he wakes up or she moves. goodbye. throws this thread away for new things. ]

Happy endings don't really happen a lot in reality. But I know you know that.

... Reigen told me a little about it. [...] He said she didn't get the chance to say much.
no subject
...yeah. How much did Reigen already tell you anyway?

Just that you guys went in after a monster you thought was me. But not to kill it, to rescue it.

Sorry. [...] You shouldn't have had to go through any of that.

That story's ended. [...] I guess that doesn't really mean it has to be done here, though.

and shifts, so that she can lean up to bonk him with her head. she's a cat, so it probably doesn't hurt.]
I don't know how I want it to end yet.
