[Audio | Prima's Temple]

[rungout]

[Waking up had been odd. His head was swimming and everything just felt off for some reason, but he couldn't quite place what was going on. Rung didn't remember returning to Prima's temple so that, in itself, was throwing him off considering the last thing he remembered was...

Well, he'd been out and about in Haven.

Sitting up slowly with a hand to his head, Rung looked around as he tried to make sense of things, growing even more confused by his presence here because, as of late, the only temple he'd been recharging in was Alpha Trion's. His optics narrowed a bit on the floor as he dug through his memories, trying to remember--

Wait.

Pain. He remembered pain but not the source. It was fuzzy but..

His hand lowered slowly, vents cycling softly as his optics dimmed now. He'd..died...hadn't he? That would be the only thing that made sense but how?

Glancing around the room after a long moment, Rung spotted his comm device on the makeshift desk and slowly eased off his bed to make his way over to it. Once he had the device in hand he found himself hesitating, staring at it as he debated his options before switching it to audio only, vents cycling heavily as his optics dimmed.]


Would..anyone be able to fill me in on what..I can't seem to remember properly?

is it really?

it doesnt feel any better

i havent seen anything else but failing

[rungout]

It doesn't, not right away. But in the long run, you'll feel a lot better than you would have if you'd kept it bottled up.

You have friendships don't you? People that care about you. And you haven't failed at everything, Kagerou.

[thxforthememories]

even if you're supposed to keep things quiet like that ?

yes there are friends.

they're the ones i dont want to let down any more

[rungout]

Who told you that you're supposed to keep things quiet?

And you won't let anyone down. Despite what you may think, Kagerou, you haven't failed anyone--certainly not me.

[thxforthememories]

shadows are quiet things. so are ninja. im not meant to be noisy

... all right

[rungout]

There's a difference between movng quietly, being unseen for your job--for what you do..and keeping yourself silent because you think that's what other's want.

I mean it.

[thxforthememories]

to not be silent
