BringerofShadows she/her Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Narrator Shadow wanted a bowl of popcorn. Watching people suffer was a hobby of hers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xinoehp512 he/him Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 The air flicked. A shade of Tom Joebob appeared. "You don't believe me? Really? Even now?" He laughed, flickering. "What if I show you?" A window appeared. Inside it, a family sat eating dinner. There were three children, with ages ranging from 3 to 13. AJ sat at the head of the table with a woman- not Star or Thought - laughing and eating the meal. He was happy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) Star was indeed quite unresponsive. The cell door was open. Even wounded as she was, Thought was skilled enough in combat to pass Marsh and escape. But then, she had no reason to. AJ would come. She knew that. She muttered his name. She would do so until he arrived and she was safe in his arms. Or until she died. Whichever came first. She heard Tom's words of course. They tore at her heart. It's not real, she promised herself, it's not real. Edited March 21, 2019 by Shard of Thought 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xinoehp512 he/him Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Tom kept laughing. "What if I make it real?" He snapped his fingers. In an instant they were there, watching them from the sidewalk outside AJ's suburban home. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xinoehp512 he/him Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Tom spun around angrily. "It's real! It's ALL REAL!!" He fell to his knees, his face overcome with grief. "Why? Why have you forsaken me so? Why was I not good enough? Why...?" He trailed off, sobbing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 "What did I do to you?" Thought asked softly. Her abilities as a Sliver allowed her to feel the severity of his man's emotion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaywalk he/him Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Jaywalk’s robe was stained with streaks of blood. Bozo sat beside him, revolver clutched between his paws. ”What shall we do?” Bozo asked. ”There’s nothing we can do,” Jaywalk replied. “Tom has powers beyond my comprehension.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xinoehp512 he/him Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Tom lay still. "I loved you, once. You took that, and you threw it away. To be with him." He jerked his thumb towards the house. "Even after all I did for you. I took your Shard, and rescued it. I restored your memories, or tried to." Grief covered his face. "They were altered. They made you hate me. You... you punished me, made me drink what I swore I would never drink again. You used the Key to make it permanent. And now... And now..." He stopped, unable to continue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
