hey uh
i bet you all get this a lot, but, uh, am i dead? like, straight up dead? is this purgatory?
because i really messed up and think i died and then i woke up in the hospital here and its all really
uh
a lot

and im kind of freaking out

ok yeah i guess i was about to die. and they explained all that but does that mean like, the me back home is dead??? or does that me just not exist anymore??????

(lowkey i still think this might be purgatory. if it was heaven i would have my own room.)

[ Gee. Stream-of-consciousness sure is easy when you're speaking to the void. But hey. It's better than staying in her bunk and going nuts alone. ]

ugh ok anyway someone distract me from existential bullshit
whats your favorite animal and why. best answer becomes my purgatory bff

Why do you think you have to have died because you were dying in your reality?

I don't know what purgatory is like, but I know this isn't hell.

[notreallyrobin]

why wouldn't i be dead i was like

pretty dying back there
like
no way i was gettin outta that one to be honest

[angelic_archer]

Because they can either bring you here moments before you would have died or they can save people from mortal injuries.

They saved my little brother.

[notreallyrobin]

well im glad to hear they saved your brother

is it normal to run into people you knew from before, here?

[angelic_archer]

I'm hoping that he's saved back home too.

Most of my family and friends were here. Some of them went back home, but the three of us are still here.

[notreallyrobin]

well thats good to know
that friends are here i mean

its weird thinking about anyone i know from home being here
huh

i hope ur bothers ok too.

[angelic_archer]

You don't want anyone from your reality here?

Thank you. None of my family remembers anything happening to him so that might be proof that he is.

[notreallyrobin]

i mean, i miss them it would just be awkward
like
really awkward

there r some people i wouldnt mind seeing htough

n thats good! did u like, compare timelines?

[angelic_archer]

Wouldn't it be worth going through the awkwardness to have them in your life?

We have but someone altered our memories before we arrived here so we don't always remember some of the details the same way.

[notreallyrobin]

maybe, but its still really complicated
im ok without them for a little bit

i dont mean like....forever

[angelic_archer]

When dealing with the people you care about, complicated has a way of blowing up in your face if you're not careful.

If you wait too long, they may not take it well.

[notreallyrobin]

i dont even know if anyone from my universe is here!!

if i did i would probably talk to them

[angelic_archer]

Sorry. In the past I screwed up and almost lost someone who was important to me because I didn't tell them things when I should have.

I don't want others to go through that too.

[notreallyrobin]

yeah uh
tht sounds familiar

ive def done similar things in the past but i wouldnt right now i dont think
