death becomes you (10/29)

[ You know the drill by now, right? You did exactly what you shouldn't have and opened the creepy app. Well, now you're connected, and it's Xigbar on the other end.

A question flashes on your screen...and you can answer it if you want to. ]

The world is ending. What do you do?

[ Maybe Xigbar himself will answer it. Maybe he won't. It all depends on you. ]

Give up?

[ Xigbar looks totally unimpressed. ]

I bet you're a hit at parties.

[despairing_hope]

As if anyone would invite me to one.

[madannoshashu]

Well, that's just pitiful, my dude.

You oughta re-think your life choices if that's what you're satisfied with.

[despairing_hope]

I suppose, but I can't change the past, and there's not much to look forward to. But, I already know that I'm trash, and accepting that seems better than lying to myself.

[madannoshashu]

So what you're saying is I should just let the ghost-y hands take you.

That about right?

[despairing_hope]

I would rather you not. But, what do you expect someone to do at the end of the world? I'm not a hero or a protagonist.

[madannoshashu]

Oh, I dunno, skippy. Not really a fan of Friendship is Magic hero types, but giving up is just sad.

Go live your life, do something interesting, make plans for what comes after -- really, anything is better than nothing.

[despairing_hope]

Been there, done that, have a new hand to commemorate it all.

What would you do if the world was ending?

[madannoshashu]

Who, me?

I'd kick back and watch the fireworks.

[despairing_hope]

That's the same as giving up.
