[She should... He is not worth anything more than being snapped like a twig. TRADE PLACES WITH HIM ELYSIA YOU SHOULD BE ALIVE RIGHT NOW.]

...It's a very kind thing for you to do. Preservation of memories is such an important task, and a heavy one.

[ no, no.... she's existed more years than he's lived across all his alternate timelines.... he should be alive (dead) instead of dead (dead). ]

It's also a bit of a selfish one. [ she smiles a little. ] I want them to be known for the people they are, for all their flaws and contradictions, as much as they should be remembered for what they did to create a better future.

[No he should definitely be dead (dead).]

Why do you think of that as selfish...?

[A curious little lilt to his tone. To him, it still sounds fairly selfless. Wanting to honor the people you love doesn't read as an act of someone who only cares for themselves and their own desires.]

[ then die and join me.

she smiles. ]

You'll have to go on another date with me. ♪

[ if he can stand the discomfort. they don't know they're getting love arrowed yet. ]

[WAIT FOR ME!!!!!!

There's a little laugh at that, though, some amusement sparkling in his expression.]

I'd say you drive a hard bargain, but I think many would be quite jealous to know that I've been able to enjoy more than one date with you, my dear. You have yourself a deal.

[THEY HAVE ANOTHER DATE BUT THEY'RE SO BUSY BEING IN FAKE REAL LOVE.]

[ you'll make it to endgame.... i have accepted... nihilism

she laughs and shakes her head. ]

Who would be jealous of you? They'd be jealous of me instead, to be able to spend time with someone who's so rarely but so cutely flustered as you~

[ the juxtaposition of our two threads is really taking me out. ]

[DON'T JUST ACCEPT IT. ACCEPT ME INTO THE GRAVE.]

Oh, my... You really think someone will be jealous over such a thing? I'd be surprised to see it, really.

[ i'd welcome you.... bursts into tears but it is what it is.... ]

I do, I do~ You'll have to prime yourself to be surprised.

[ she sounds so sure. ]

[swandives in :pleadingface:]

I suppose I can manage, for you.

[But they can GET ON OUTTA THIS FUNHOUSE as i gently set this thread go... clings onto my other one forever]
