I can bring you back to life if needed.” @NameIess Rebus ignores Bacon’s outrage. “Because I’m running away from me, and even with the Plotblade I’ll eventually figure out how to Narrate Rebel out of existence.” He shrugs. “That was meant for your Author, regardless. Responsible was perhaps the wrong word. I meant something closer to helpful.” "Ah! Well, if you like I can take you right there, I suppose. It would certainly be the fastest option." 22 hours ago, NameIess said: Subversion grabbed the reports and read through them as quickly as she could. The first report detailed the account of one James John Jones, Senior, who reported having memories of a sister that did not exist. Reportedly, she had been named "Grace Jones" and had been a professor at the University of Universes. 7 hours ago, Thee insane said: Sorry for not responding yesterday. "yeah da twead.

There was something beautiful about this, he decided. About drifting in an empty expanse of stars all alone with a friend. With Tam. He couldn’t even see the warehouse anymore. He was sure it was there, a little speck, but he didn’t bother to search for it. He didn’t want to find it, anyway.
