You fall into mud. It is sticky and sucking and cloying and whether you stay still and try to remain calm or struggle and try to get out, you're sucked downward. You can't breathe, you can't (of course) see, and you can feel the crushing weight of earth on you. When the blackness becomes overwhelming, you find yourself somewhere else...

Meaningless? Pain hurts, it's a bad thing!

Re: UP - LEFT

[imaginemeandyuu]

Nah, pain's not so bad! You get used to it, and it goes away.

Re: UP - LEFT

[emomachine]

Is that true. . .?

[wait no. shakes his head]

But there's no reason for you to be hurting yourself like this!

Re: UP - LEFT

[imaginemeandyuu]

Yup, it's true! And there's plenty of reason.

Re: UP - LEFT

[emomachine]

Why, what reason?

Re: UP - LEFT

[imaginemeandyuu]

'Cause I'm crazy as shit and nobody needs to deal with that?

Re: UP - LEFT

[emomachine]

[???]

I don't understand what you mean, but we're teammates, aren't we? I don't think you're crazy, but whether that's true or not I don't want to see you hurt. I want to help.

You're wrong!

Re: UP - LEFT

[emomachine]

Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know. . . I don't know a lot of things.

[holds his hand to his chest]

But I care about you, and it hurts when you're in pain. I know that, because I can feel it.

Re: UP - LEFT

[imaginemeandyuu]

I see... Thank you. It's nice to know someone cares, at least.
