GRAVEYARD PT. II

GRAVEYARD


The world is black. And then you blink at your plate.

A portion of your favorite dish greets your eyes, albeit in a form you may never have seen it in before. Encased in a thick, wobbling layer of multi-colored gelatin, the food you know and love now sits suspended in its protein-based enclosure as an eccentric re-imagining of the dish. Furthermore, it only takes a glance to see that the rest of the dining table's spread shares this same theme, as every single dish, sweet or savory, finds itself victim to a jiggling Jell-o jail.

Still, you won't have much time to take this all in before a quiet, high-pitched giggling makes its way to your ears, only crescendoing in volume the longer you sit in this oh-so-familiar dining room. It doesn't take much to find the source of the sound either; unlike the other side, this place is absolutely teeming with fairies to the point where the fluttering of their iridescent wings is clearly audible behind the din of their laughter. As you come to your senses, dozens and dozens of beady eyes watch with their tiny faces stretched out in a wide grin, before speaking in unison.

"Welcome, we can't wait to serve you!"

As the fairies erupt in raucous laughter all around you, at least one more thing is readily apparent: however you met your end, your body is completely whole again. You also have company at the table with you, although whether it's desirable company or not may depend on the circumstances surrounding your death.

In any case, there's nothing stopping anyone from leaving the dining room and roaming freely as usual, and most of the same areas that were available to you on the other side are still present here, albeit with some differences. And though your life may have been stolen from you, it still looks like you have a part in this tale, somehow, someway.

So, will you let your story finish here, or will you write your own ending?

Oh, of course, of course.

[ c-ta completely ignored that?

oh but that does bring something to mind? ]


Do you still not have your voice here? Everyone’s been saying that they feel better than ever. Does that not extend to curses?

[...Ah. Suga touches his throat, works it silently for a moment.]

I didn't think of that
I'm a little scared to try

…

[ he frowns, settling a hand on suga’s knee. ]

It’s okay, you don’t have to. You can take the time that you need.
gemuinemanagement: (remember me)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-12 06:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you

[...Hold on for a bit, he's writing a longer note that he wants to be seen all at once.]
gemuinemanagement: (spoon as sleep starts)

The other other thing I wanted to talk about
Was Jack
I know you hate him
I can't blame you for that
And I know it's not all because of me
But I still don't want you to be hurt
And Moriarty has a point that it's not really productive in meetings and things like that

So I'll make you a deal
If you promise not to attack him
I'll do "something nice" for you

…

[ he raises his hands, blushing ]

What the hell are you thinking? Don’t bargain like that.
mearry: (UEGdIIW)

[personal profile] mearry 2021-07-12 06:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[ but the comment makes his expression darken as he thinks about jack. ]

Don’t… I’ll do my best. It’s just…

[ he breathes in deeply, his gaze unfocused ]

I don’t know. It doesn’t matter.
gemuinemanagement: (it is the nature)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-12 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I see
Thank you


[why do you look disappointed suga]
mearry: (pic#6796109)

[personal profile] mearry 2021-07-12 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
And then Nageki says I jump to conclusions…

[ jiiiii ]
gemuinemanagement: (to calm me down)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-12 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
It's fine
I probably wouldn't be that good at it so I guess it's not a good motivator
Don't worry about it
mearry: (pic#7525416)

[personal profile] mearry 2021-07-12 07:00 pm (UTC)(link)
I’m just saying not to use that as a bargaining chip.
gemuinemanagement: (and pulse to pulse)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-12 07:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[....................]

So it's not because you don't want to

[ he’s just going to steal suga’s memo and pencil for a moment because he’s rude. ]

What do you think?
gemuinemanagement: (now all the late night bars)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-12 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[Taking it back for a second please.]

I know that's a rhetorical question but I don't think you'll like the answer anyway
mearry: (pic#10450561)

[personal profile] mearry 2021-07-12 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[ memo please. ]

Love yourself please. (“-`)
gemuinemanagement: (people come and people go I know)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-12 07:19 pm (UTC)(link)
That's kind of hard when you've heard every day for 12 years that you're worthless and things would be better off if you didn't exist
But I am trying
I've gotten better since I got here


[...pause.]

So it's not a no?
mearry: (pic#6472239)

[personal profile] mearry 2021-07-12 07:22 pm (UTC)(link)
It’s not a no.
gemuinemanagement: (what you've found)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-12 07:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[!!!!

Gives him a hug.]
mearry: (pic#6796005)

[personal profile] mearry 2021-07-12 08:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh—

[ hugs back…? he chuckles a little bit. ]

Thank you. For everything.
gemuinemanagement: (she makes the sound)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-12 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you
For loving me


[He's so happy right now.]
mearry: (pic#10450562)

[personal profile] mearry 2021-07-12 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
…I should be the one saying that.

[ he sounds… relieved. though when he pulls away, he looks troubled.

…

he draws in a shaky breath. he wants to explain something but no words leave his lips.

he’ll take the memo again. ]


Jack is like looking into a mirror for me. I don’t like it.
gemuinemanagement: ('cause for that instant)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-12 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
You've changed, though
I can tell just from watching you talk to people
You've become a better person than you were before
You're better than him
mearry: (shiita2)

[personal profile] mearry 2021-07-12 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
…

[ he is staring at suga like he grew a second head tbh. ]
gemuinemanagement: (remember me)

[personal profile] gemuinemanagement 2021-07-12 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
You let people tease you and understand that they don't mean anything bad by it
You don't keep up a perfect facade all the time
You're opening up to me honestly right now

It's not an instant change
It takes work and time
But you are improving
mearry: (pic#10451263)

[personal profile] mearry 2021-07-12 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ … he grimaces a little, though still smile. ]

I… I’m… if you say so. It’s just hard to see that when… I’ve done such horrible things.
