  1. Anything you'd like to ask of a dying god?
  2. "Agh... hopefully." The energy seemed to slow, then settle. When TAAron spoke again, his voice was not his own. Rue. Malum is dead. I will be also, shortly.
  3. "D-don't know." The light was more energetic than in normally seemed, emerging and swirling around him violently, crackling.
  4. He suddenly cried out, and fell to the ground. Red and violet light began to swirl around him.
  5. TAAron began to walk after her, but seemed to hesitate. He began to glow with his odd white light.
  6. "I'm sorry," he said again, more quietly. "If you choose not to try now, that's okay. I'll be here for you if you change your mind. I'm always here for you."
  7. "They don't have to. I promise, not all of them end in disaster, and nothing about you or the people you meet makes that a requirement."
  8. People paint things. Must be a Yumi reference. There are colors. Must be a Warbreaker reference. People die. Clearly a reference to the Beyond.
  9. "Because you might be happier that way. You deserve people who care about you and positive relationships and... happiness. It's another chance."
  10. "Would you please try, just this once?"
  11. "As you have expressed, it's not simple to stop caring about someone."
  12. "I made an oath to prevent that." He just looked sad. "I'm so sorry, Rue.".
  13. "Can you try one more time? I haven't shown myself to be a monster yet. If you're right, good for you, and you can blame me. But I don't want you to go through your life being afraid to trust or care or show emotion."
  14. "I swear it's true. I'm sorry you've been hurt too badly I'm the past to believe anyone can really care. But I do."
  15. "Because I care about you. Because you're my friend, and you deserve to be cared about."
  16. "If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. But know it does matter to me a great deal."
  17. "No, but I think you have an answer you aren't giving me. But you don't have to tell me if you don't want to." @Ookla the Believer
  18. "It does matter to me. And I really don't know how I feel, anyway."
  19. TAAron frowned. "You avoided my question. How are you actually feeling?"
  20. "I'm... I don't know. It's a lot, I guess."
  21. "Hello, Rue..." he said softly. "How are you doing?"
  22. TAAron moved away from Luna, exhausted, and began wandering the hallways. He didn't want to be still, didn't want to think. The ordeal in the underworld has left him rattled, and it wasn't necessarily over yet. He felt like he was dangling over a precipice, held only by a strand. He didn't know what awaited him in the fall, but he dreaded it. Eventually, his wandering came to a halt at a certain door. Rue's room. How had he ended up back here? A strange coincidence, but not an unwelcome one. Hopefully she'd have calmed down by now. He could use a friend to talk to, or at the very least interact with. TAAron knocked.
  23. "I don't know. I have no idea what's going on."
