[STOP i would never let both go even though i let the uncursed one go....... girts my frits...
But yay! The exit! No more horrific memories to be had. Lucas smiles, warm and content and pleased to have this affection bestowed upon him by Elysia whom he is for real so madly in love with.]
You and I both agree with that, at least. For however many tumbles life's path takes, there's always an upward slope at the end.
they exit!! full of warmth brought by their very true and real love, she lets some of her thoughts of the future slide away, at least for this fleeting moment that she knows will remain with her for the rest of her existence. his words are ones that resonate. ]
Tragedy isn't the end. It's the beginning of hope.
[ oh i didn't realize you were referencing the extreme catholic guilt from murdering the last game.
she spins with a little laugh. ]
My dear Eden... She's my best friend. She was like gold in every way, but that's not how you two are similar. It's in the way you carry yourselves and the way you reach out to people - how you hold out your hand.
This is very sweet, though... He does try. Sometimes he feels like he comes up short, but fortunately he feels more confident when the very real love of his life is saying that it's something he can do.]
I wish that I could meet her... She sounds like a kind soul. I can only hope to be that kind of person, myself. Won't you tell me a bit more about her? About your friends?
because she is so, so in love with him, so very and truly in love with him, she also can't help but say: ]
I'd love for you to meet her somehow, but I'm not sure how anymore. She's the cutest drunk you'll ever meet, though. She'd give you the whole world if she owned it.
[ she's so fond. she LOVES EDEN!!! ]
What else do you want to know about my friends? It's hard to find a place to start when there's so much I can say.
[GRITS MY TEETH AND PUSHES ALL OF YOU BETRAYINGASS SLAUNDERS OUT THE AIRLOCK
But it's fine because here in the safety of the past he is just sooo in love and nothing can hurt him!!]
Hearing about her from you is lovely all the same. It sounds like you love her very much... [Perhaps he is a touch sad that he won't be able to meet Elysia's amazing friends, but it is not her amazing friends that he's in love with.]
Why don't you tell me a bit more about how you all met?
[ you speak as if you don't usually betray first I'M NOT CONVINCED YOU'RE INNOCENT EITHER
anyway, they remain so in love, only adoration and adulation. usually, you have to meet all 12 of her friends and get approval from them in some way or fashion (even if the approval is them just telling you to go away) before elysia lets you all the way in, but today..... lucas gets it all. ]
I met Eden on the roof to a theater. It was the curtain call to one of the plays she was starring in, and she was in disguise. We hit it off after discussing what I thought of the play. She invited me to a drink after, and the rest was history!
As for the rest of my friends... it was mostly when they all joined MOTH.
[THAT'S FAIR i however would never make myself be fully awake in trial on week 5
This is so sad though HE OF ALL PEOPLE SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO CHEAT HIS WAY INTO THIS AND YET. Well, at least he's having a good time being able to listen to her talk about people she so clearly adores... as they just dance away outside of this horrible hall of mirrors.]
Ah! An immediate bond, hm? That must have been very fun, learning her true identity later. [Though the rest gets a little curious look.] Moth?
[ eden lore comes for free because everyone should know how good and beautiful and generous and lovely eden is, according to elysia. but the other stuff... he does get to cheat his way into it if he wants.... whoever cursed him let him cheat. ]
I loved finding out who she was. It changed nothing. We still talked the night away. [ hehe. ]
MOTH is what the anti-Honkai organization I joined was called. It's an acronym, but it's not important to know what it stands for. Just that it was to fight against the threat to humanity.
[Elysia is so funny but good for her and how much she loves Eden.]
You must have found that you had a lot in common, in that case. What a wonderful thing!
[But also what da hael is this. He's just kind of looking a little concerned, but he is also hilariously not inclined to press much even when he is sooo in love.]
This "honkai" is the threat, then...? Or...
[Lucas just thinking back to her memory like how many threats to humanity are there in this damn world.]
[ to both. how wonderful it is to be friends with eden and all they had in common and also, yes honkai is the source of all the threats.... the energy in what makes things a threat.... ]
Honkai is what causes many of our problems. The radiation illness, the zombies, the beasts, the natural disasters, the Herrschers.....
[ it's why honkai has an impact. or why it impacts. ]
No one knows what exactly it is yet. Some people theorize there is a Will of Honkai behind it, but... [ her smile is a little wry. ] Because I am a Herrscher, I should have had some connection or contact with it, but when I tried..
A will of honkai? [Hm. Sounds like some celestial bullshit to him, either way. But he does slow to a bit of a stop at that, looking at her with open worry. NOT HIS DEAR AND TRUEST LOVE.]
Anyway he finds that slightly relatable but he does not like that he does, considering this is a force that delivers plagues and death and destruction and apparently Elysia unto the world. But he will gladly accept this kiss anyway, and turn his head slightly to gently return one.]
Would that it could hold humanity more softly, then.
[ well.... elysia was not wanted? she was a freak accident actually, which he can learn if he asks since she's so in love with him right now but he's still so polite.
she glows with the warmth of their true love, and she nods. ]
I doubt it will happen anytime soon, but I do think it's trying in its own way.
[ it's still something that needs to be stopped in her world's pov. ]
[A FREAK ACCIDENT. ELYSIA!!!! This is fine. Unfortunately she can keep her lore for now since he will not think to ask in this moment, talking about cataclysmic hugs.]
What a strange thing... A shame that it's so dangerous.
[It's almost kind of sad? But it is also mostly bad, so yes, go squash it. Except it's just out there looking like FMA Truth about it apparently.
but also im about to die and pc you afresh so we can set this thread free into the winds if u wish...]

The beginning of hope, is it? I do agree with that. Your wording is as lovely as a poet's.
no subject
Is it? Maybe I've just seen a few too many plays in my time.
no subject
There isn't anything wrong with that, you know. I've loved reading the ones that wash ashore—the scripts, that is.
no subject
Do you? You'd get along so well with my friend, Eden. She used to star in so many plays... but you two have a similar atmosphere.
no subject
A similar atmosphere? How so? [A curious little look as he gives her a gentle twirl.] You talk about your friends so sweetly...
[HE'S TOUCHED BY IT. It's something he'd find endearing even when his braincell isn't fried by cursed love.]

It was like an embrace, but its embrace isn't something humanity would be able to handle.

He'll immediately fold his arms around her in return, though! A hug for his beloved. But also this sounds so fucking ominous.]
