"That wasn't me, but I guess so."

Tam erased all the previous Narration put on Template but made them keep their memories.

Their Thread almost-awareness and autonomy quashed, they return to having little desire and sit down on the sand.

Yes, but nothing on this level. Template is a really cool idea, btw

Thanks! I’d been wanting to practice improv and writing with restrictions, and I really like the result.

"What if we just got closer?" Hacob suggested, holding his ear.

"Ah, yes, perhaps," Pancakes says. He does not move.

Bat frowned. 

“Oh! Hang on. Do you wanna be a crow again?”

It hopped up again excitedly.

"Nope! Not happening!" Tam said, grinning.

"At least not yet."

"Ah, um . . ."

She restored his free will as well.

Bat grinned at her and pulled out a small chunk of Nullite on a black string. He fastened it around the bunny's neck.

Her smiled evaporated and she eyed the Nullite suspiciously.

". . . You just . . . had that the whole time?"

"They don't. But what if someday they do? And I don't have ink? And I'm nullite-less?"

She shrugged.

"Then I finally get to turn you into a crab," she said, smiling faintly.

The crow-rabbit huffed indignantly.

He attempted a queasy smile. "Yeah. Or turn my heart into metal or fill my lungs with water or crush me with gravity. Yay."

She shifted uncomfortably in the sand.

"Bat, that's horrible. I would never do that. And-" she held up her hand, "-before you say it, no, most of the current Narrators wouldn't do that, either."

He fiddled with the clasp on his bag. "I... but some of them might. Or somebody might."

"Maybe," she admitted, "but then somebody else would be able to help you. And why would the Narrators be interested in you anyway? . . . No offense or anythng."

The sound of metal scraping on stone came from deeper in the cave.

"I... well, the... what if they don't help, though? And... what if I just end up some kind of casualty? Like how Subversion didn't seem to care much about the doctors? There's no reason for them to care about me." He smiled a little. "None taken."

"Well, then I would help you, I suppose. I helped those doctors after Subversion sent them away, and it's not like everyone is just going to let you die without doing anything about it."

Perseus drew his blade. "Careful." he whispered. "Let me lead." He walked forward into the cave, inching forward, at the ready.
