WEEK 2
[It's been...

One week since you woke up here
Met your house manager and said "We’re angry"
Five days since he laughed at you saying
"Write me some letters and you’ll never see me"
Three days since the mirror room
You realized there’s more the Opera House wouldn't tell you
Yesterday you'd bonded more
But it'll still be two days till you get your motive


Welcome to week 2, performers.]

[Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday]


[ooc: happy week 2, everyone! Don't forget to submit your AC and your regains! Regain rolls are done Sunday and Tuesday nights.]

[That's it. That's it. Stephen can't help but smile, encouraging Ariel with a squeeze of his hand.]

Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream until your dream come through

[Keep going, he's trying to say. Don't give up.]

[His voice grows louder, more confident with each repetition. He rises to his feet, attempting to pull Stephen up with him.

It isn't the perfect cure. But if nothing else, he feels a little better.]

[hey did you know Stephen apparently has a pretty good voice when he just cracks an 'aah'? now you know. He doesn't quite even have it in him to be embarrassed about that, instead rising with Ariel]

Look, Ariel- I'm not going to tell you what to feel or think. But I am going to say that I wish I was friends with someone like you, back home.

[revelfree]

And I you.

[They're still holding hands, and that's probably a little weird. Nevertheless, Ariel doesn't let go.]

If nothing else, at least some things would be a little clearer.

[37773972]

[it's fine, it's FINE, and Stephen's not going to be the first one to let go]

Considering I'm out of a job, I wouldn't even mind tagging after you. [You know. Searching for meaning and all that.]

[revelfree]

Perhaps when we're out then?

[When, not if. He stresses the word, offers it as a life raft.]

[37773972]

[And he recognizes it as one, joining Ariel onboard]

Yeah. When we're out.

You should come with me. To- the future, I guess? You'll be amazed at the differences. You can keep in touch with people who are half a world away- even if I found a job again and had to stay in one place, we could still talk.

[revelfree]

It would be nice, to have a friend. [He cracks a smile, a small one, but a smile all the same.]

And... Riley has told me about cameras, and Steven about pizza. With all of these advancements, perhaps what I seek is in the future anyway.

[37773972]

Someone's going to have to fund you. [He's teasing- mostly. But truth.] We have plenty of troubles, but...I think you'll like it.

[revelfree]

That committed to making my dreams come true, are you?

[It's touching. He almost feels uneasy with it.]

It's a promise then.
