  1. Rue blinked and took another step back. “There are…more of me?”
  2. Rue frowned. "What's your problem?" She didn't sound angry, just...emotionlessly.
  3. Ela followed amiably, though she raised an eyebrow when he stamped himself. Some kind of disguise? Should I have a disguise? She looked over at the people. "You sound so angry," she murmured to Lei. "They're probably just doing the same thing we are." She waved to the people, hoping she hadn't sounded rude.
  4. Pilly looked around at all the life, the creatures, their pain. Were they worth more than her? Did they deserve joy? Did they deserve life more than she did? No, they didn't. Pilly knew, without a doubt, that they wanted her dead. That they didn't care about her. So why should she care about them? Why should she starve just so that they could live their meaningless lives? No. No. She wouldn't. Pilly twitched her antennae, and a chrysalis began to form around her. It was a deep, beautiful magenta. It was magnificent. If Pilly could smile, she would have.
  5. Eddie was sitting alone outside. She closed her eyes, touching her star. I could burn all of this...I could destroy the world.
  6. Elan, controlled by Xi, turned towards him. "Stop that." It was his voice, though he didn't choose to say it.
  7. Oh, light. No no no no no no no no no she's not right she wasn't right no...I will not be the monster. Rue stood up, back straight and eyes cold. "Well then, I'd best let her be." She took a few steps back.
  8. Zira laughed and turned away. "Why do you keep the child around?" @Ookla the Yellow Sock
  9. "Should there be?" Rue knelt next to Aventine. "Who hurt you?"
  10. Spotify Wrapped day should be a national holiday.

    I spent 117,173 minutes listening this year…guys that’s 81 full days.

    And I was in the top .05% of listeners for John Powell (over 4,000 minutes) IM NOT A NERD THAID

    And also I played about 8,500 songs this year :D

  11. "What now indeed...we ought to be used to peace by now, I should think."
  12. "Well. That's...plenty intriguing."
  13. Zira started walking slowly towards her, then lunged, faster than the eye could follow, and bared her fangs inches from Tizzy's face.
  14. "What? Is that...strange?"
  15. "He asked me if there was anything I wanted to 'ask a dying god'. It was funny."
  16. Zira turned to her and laughed. "Iz da wittle pumpkin scawwed?"
  17. "Ah. Interesting. Maybe I should have asked him a question or two..."
  18. Pilly twitched its antennae, terrified. Was this a dream? No, no it wasn't. Pilly didn't have dreams. But it hurt...how could it be anything but a dream? Was it possible for anything real to hurt so much? And the worms...oh, the worms. If anything, they hurt most of all. They were a reminder of everything Pilly was not, and never would be. Perhaps they were ugly, and legless, and slimy, but they were loved. They were useful. Somehow, without any of the benefits Pilly had, they were so much better than any caterpillar. Pilly writhed, wishing for a way to make it stop. If only it was a worm. Surely life must be easier as a worm. No obligation to eat until you grew and grew and grew in the hope that someday you might become something beautiful, if you didn't die first. No one expected anything of you. Maybe, Pilly supposed, it would be better that way. Pilly was not worthy of being a caterpillar. And that realization hurt more than anything else.
  19. "You could. They're both dead, though. Doesn't that mean it won't work?"
