I don't like to talk about this. But I think that if there was anything in the world that could possibly save her, my brother would have done it by now.

@Legend Begins

That’s a little bit defeatist, no?

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

She isn’t all danger, you are just terrified of her.

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

What was it like? The experience?

@Blabbo

Not pleasant, I’ll say that much. Too much reality shifting for my liking.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

Not exactly what I mean...

@Legend Begins

Hm?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

I don't like what the reality implies, but...

@Legend Begins

It’s dangerous. I know what I’ve signed up for.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

Yeah, but would I be able to stop her in time? I don’t know. I don’t know her abilities and she may be brave enough to have another go before I am able to stop her.

@Blabbo

It is a little hard to interact with, yeah.

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

I don't like the idea of anyone being involved with her...

<Snipped quote by Blabbo>

Danger is all that Misty is. I don't like to say it either.

@Legend Begins

Can’t have your cake and eat it too. Someone has to help her if she’s going to get better. Pretending she doesn’t exist only hurts her, and enables her to hurt others.

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

It seems I should be less worried now.

@Blabbo

*Nods*
Mhm. It’ll be alright. I really don’t recommend that Eclipse double dips here though. She did good, but as far as being ready for the danger? I’m not so sure. She was lucky to not be directly involved like we were.

<Snipped quote by Blabbo>

Less worried?

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

I don't want to jump to any of that. The world we were in was a special case.

@Legend Begins

It’s less about her and more about how I know what I can do works, you know?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

I don’t think that’s a good idea. Who knows how she’ll be next time?

@Legend Begins

I learned a few things today. One, she can’t hurt me when I’m prepared. I have that advantage over… A certain archetype of people. Two, that she is willing to listen, so it’s not a worthless endeavor. Three, she doesn’t ubiquitously want to be the way she is anymore, despite what part of her might say. And four, that I could manage perfectly fine if I plan for and am ready to see her. All of these things I am unmistakably sure of. I’m in a unique position here and I would hate to throw it away.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

What do you mean check in?

@Legend Begins

Well I have to talk with her again at some point in the near future. Otherwise I’d just be abandoning the progress.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

We’ll see. I sincerely hope it wasn’t a one-off.

@Legend Begins

I don’t plan for it to be. I kind of have an obligation now to check in, based on how our talks went.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

*Looks down with sorrow*
I really hope you’re right. My brother would do anything to have her back.

@Legend Begins

I can only imagine. Hopefully a big first step was taken here today.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

You know, but haven’t done anything about her?

@Legend Begins

They can’t.
