[Text; Locked to Jaune's friends]

I think Pyrrha Nikos is gone.

[People are bound to find out on their own if they haven't already, but it needs to be said.]

[Action | Nova City]

[It's possible to run into Jaune in Nova City. He's not paying attention to his surroundings, and he might not notice someone he recognizes at first. And if he doesn't recognize them, then there's a disheveled teenager who looks like he hasn't shaved, much less changed his outfit in a week wandering around.]

[ooc: if your character is on good terms with Jaune, he would have included them in the text. if you need me to clarify it further, feel free to pm me!]

I'm not telling you what to do. The choice you make is yours. What I am telling you is don't let it be one you'll regret because that regret will never go away.

It's possible because of a curse. A curse that trapped me in a new world where I had to see Grace live with a different life and a new family every single day but I couldn't do anything about it because everyone was forced to forget who they were. Everyone but me and the monster who cast it. So time stood still and I got to witness the same thing happen over and over for all of those years until someone finally broke it and got things to work.

Is it really only me who isn't being fair? It is the same. Loss is loss no matter how it happens. Being alone is the same no matter how it happens. Why the hell can't you get that?

... she was the one that didn't believe you?

i know it won't go away. i might not have been alone for 28 years and forgotten for that amount of time but i know how lonely it is to be surrounded by people and still be isolated.

but i don't know what else to do.

why is your life like some kind of fantasy story with magic hats and curses? why can't this be a curse? then someone could break it. and things would be okay again.

why the hell are you so insistent that i do?

we spent a year together in the same room and classes, and she never treated me like i was weak or less important just because i didn't have the same background or skills as everyone else. so it's just a little hard to believe that you see something she didn't.

here's what i'm going to do, jeff:

i'm going to get wasted. a lot. and i'm going to hide until i disappear from this place too or some asshole like that purple freezepop blows everything up.

it's the only way i have.

I told you before. Everyone is a story. I also mentioned that we have to write our own. If this is where you want yours to go I can't change the pages but I wish I could take the pen away.

I'm insistent because I'm not joking when I say you're family. And abandoning family? I don't do that. Not anymore. So I'm going to make you a deal. I'll let you do whatever it is you think you need to do for a week and then I'm going to check on you. It'll just be a text. Answer it or don't. Your story, your choice.
