The Longest Thread (Misadventures)

[NameIess]

Nameless winced. "I see."

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

Szeth grinned again, eating a handful of skittles. Before Sequence could escape, however, he tore out his heart and ate it.

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Because of the black sky.

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

“I thought I said to stop that, X!” said Szeth, blood dripping from his mouth.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Unfortunately, Sequence was not a "he" and was so offended that they grew a new heart.

[NameIess]

Unintelligible stared in horror at Szeth. "Uh, are you okay? I don't think ripping out your own heart is generally a good idea."

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

(Hold up, who's heart did you eat)

[NameIess]

You know the rule! When it's unclear, it's obviously the most random option available!

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Everyone stared at Szeth. He had apparently eaten the heart of Josephine the Dawnshard.

[NameIess]

As well as his own heart.

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Because why not? It wasn't like it mattered.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Hearts were replaceable.

[xinoehp512 he/him]

There were a hundred from the FACTORY just sitting around the place.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

All for -7.92479172 cents a piece.

[xinoehp512 he/him]

They'd literally been paid to take them away because the demand was so low.

[NameIess]

Because no one ever needed heart transplants in TLT. Except for narrators.

[xinoehp512 he/him]

For when they were too lazy to fix the problem themselves.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Or when they ate their original one.

[NameIess]

And didn't want to make a new one or just ignore the lack of it. 

[xinoehp512 he/him]

And didn't want it to go back from where it was.

[NameIess]

Meanwhile, Szeth had fallen unconscious.

[xinoehp512 he/him]

He had been taken by the black sludge.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Which threw him a birthday party.

[xinoehp512 he/him]

In reverse.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

There was much screaming.
