It's over. Not better. It doesn't get better here. Never has. It's the same things over and over. You would think you'd get used to it. Why haven't people gotten used to it?

Because scars don't always heal as fast as some.

[adventlead]

Do you have scars?

[moarcowbell]

Everyone has them, mentally or physically.

[adventlead]

Some get infected.

Pain and fear never get any easier; just dimmer for the strong willed.

[adventlead]

Does that mean...I'm strong willed?

[betrayedblade]

If you manage.

[adventlead]

I will. I have nothing to look back on.

[carrythesin]

You too...

[adventlead]

Me?

[withoutawing]

So you did survive.

[adventlead]

None of it was real. Why wouldn't I?

[withoutawing]

You were so sure I came to kill you.

[adventlead]

Sorry about that.

[foxtamer]

It's good that it's over.

.... How are you doing, Kadaj?

[adventlead]

Good! I've done a lot.

[foxtamer]

So you've been keeping busy, then?

[adventlead]

Y...yeah.
