078; Ever and Alone

Oct 01, 2007 08:48

I suppose it was only a matter of time. This place has no heart; so it doesn't think twice about hurting anyone else's. It doesn't matter if you've been here a few days, or months. One day, you're just gone.

I don't think he'll ever read this, but I hope Luke is somewhere he's happy. And that Lorelei can help him find someone he'll trust, so that he can stop getting sick and hurting. I wish I gotten to help him the way he helped me when I needed it. Even though I thanked him, that wasn't enough to match how he stood by me even at my worst. I think I won't be able to repay him for that now, and that's an awful feeling. He was the first other person in Econtra besides me, so he was my first friend here. (Even though at first, he hit on me and thought Kir was my boyfriend.) I wonder... if that's what having a sibling would feel like. A brother.

I guess I'll never know.

Econtra is the first place I've ever been able to make friends -- and then actually get to know them. Yeah, Kir and I have met lots of nice people on our travels, and we call them friends, but when it gets right down to it... they're really strangers.

But here...

Better or worse? Does getting to know them really match up with the pain of losing them?

Last night I couldn't sleep, so I went to the kitchen. There were tarts in the fridge, and I got halfway back to Ast-Tessera with a box of tea and a cherry one when I remembered that neither Al nor Genis was here anymore, so there was no point in getting these things for them.

I...

Cassis, will you watch Aligoté for a little while, after all? I'd ask Kir but he won't want to.

I want to be alone for a while.

Edit: No, no, what now?! Samus came to take the AIDA from Aligoté, but nothing happened! He still hasn't woken!

Why... why is there no end...

[OOC: Edit takes place after this and the AIDA has been successfully removed from Aligoté. However, it triggers a new plot. ♥]
