Cobalt's Heart - session 2

[we_meet_again]

I carry you with me across these
barren lands, stretched dry and dark between
regions of kindness.

Generous with your warmth,
you have shown me
a path to guide my heavy legs and stumbling heart.

Generous with your patience,
you have shown me
how lucky I was to have something worth mourning.

[he looks between Izanagi and Intensity, since they're both like.]

Shen.

[he's still a little dumbstruck to see you and doesn't know what to say, clutching them hem of his shirt]

[Holding out his hand cheerfully. Oh look there's a sky now.]

Nice to meet you, Shen! What do you say we get you out of here? We're not the only ones around - I'm sure we can find someone who can take you in.

[furi: pass him off onto Cobalt or the power plant or someone who fucking knows.]

[Once he's done with the lights]

Shen.

Where are your parents?

Re: Luctus

[bondsofsuffering]

[Sir they are surrounded by dead bodies but okay.]

Re: Luctus

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[I really don't know what you expected from him.]

Re: Luctus

[we_meet_again]

I don't... I don't know.

I can't find them.

I can't find anybody.

[He's holding it together but a big fat tear rolls down his cheek anyway]

Re: Luctus

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Well now you have found someone. Stay with Izanagi, okay?

He's going to take you somewhere safe.

Re: Luctus

[we_meet_again]

[oh no here are more tears]


Are you leaving?

Re: Luctus

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

No. Just following.

And making sure no one else is lost.

Re: Luctus

[we_meet_again]

[He reaches out his hand]

You found someone? Is it my mom?

Re: Luctus

[bondsofsuffering]

[Gently taking his hand!]

I'm not sure yet! There's a buuuunch of people, but I haven't gotten a chance to meet them all, you know?

They're all survivors, though. Want to go check them out with us?

Re: Luctus

[we_meet_again]

[He holds his hand and allows himself to be led]

Y-yes!

Are you sure? I looked everywhere!

Re: Luctus

[bondsofsuffering]

I'm sure, I'm sure! We were just talking with some of them before we got here.

[Time to lead the bitty back, following the cable.]

Re: Luctus

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[He's following them as he promised to bb!Cobalt. At least until they get out of Luctus.]

Re: Luctus

[we_meet_again]

[he trots along beside Izanagi, keeping a close eye on both of them. He still looks really bewildered like this is all blindsiding him and he doesn't know what to do but follow]

[you guys make it back to the door with no issue. From this side it looks like a door into a building, but on the other side is the barricade where you came in.]
