-orite. [ the very end of a sentence- hard to tell much about it, other than the fact it came from a woman's voice. ]

Mom?!

....oh. Here again. Except- how long was I gone this time? No one's on the streets.

Must be a curse.

There's a curse.

[adamantined]

You left again?

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

I did. I'm starting to think the deities don't like me.

voice

[adamantined]

I'm starting to think they do.

[dreamsofnoah]

Everyone's gone away~.

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Can I ask- how long has it been since I last talked to you?

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Even me. Odd that they'd bring me back on a day like this.

voice

[dreamsofnoah]

Justin, Grell, my stupid ringleader, you. [an amused giggle] And now half the City. Maybe it's supposed to be hide and seek.

voice

[adamantined]

I don't know. I don't keep track. A week, maybe.

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Maybe. I wonder if we have any chance at finding each other, though, if we're cut off entirely from the rest of the City.

voice

[dreamsofnoah]

Maybe~, maybe not. I can play just as well on my own.

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

You really don't? You always know the best ways to insult me.

A week's not that bad, I suppose. Still longer than I would've expected- at least they haven't played memory games lately.

voice

[adamantined]

Why would I? Time isn't important anyway.

What kind of games did they play?

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Really? You always struck me as someone who loves an audience.

voice

[dreamsofnoah]

Sometimes you're alone even when you have one.

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Oh, you know. Remembering some people here, forgetting others, losing a path I've tread hundreds of times, or forgetting who I am entirely. The deities seem to enjoy that sort of thing.

voice

[adamantined]

I meant back home, actually.

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

And that's why I'm wondering why the deities would bother.

voice

[dreamsofnoah]

Who knows why they do anything? Who cares, even?

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Ah. Well, there the games are more like infiltration and data scrambling. A challenge, but at least I've got a better hold on the rules.

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

I'd like to know. But then, I'd like to know everything.

voice

[dreamsofnoah]

Curiosity killed the cat, but then again you don't have to worry about that.

voice

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Very true.

You're trapped in one of the other cities. The cursed ones.

...welcome back, I guess. As much as you're capable of feeling welcomed, right now.

And apparently it wasn't.
