[a heart field trip]

[antreegonist]

*you're back on the island of Mithos's heart, on the dirt path through the meadow. the sky's still clouded and glassy, but it's no longer storming: you've arrived in the middle of a sunshower.

the freestanding door is there in its pool. the surrounding fog has thinned to translucence -- you can see a couple of large, four-legged shapes moving in it.*

Mmhm. I, ah, was really sleepy last time you were in here.

[brotagonist]

I could tell. You were that fuzzball?

[antreegonist]

...squeak squeak?

[brotagonist]

[pfffft.]

[antreegonist]

It's really good for sleeping on people with. This is me for real though.

[brotagonist]

Of course you like being fuzzy.

...that was you downstairs too, wasn't it? Thanks.

[antreegonist]

Mmhm. You woke me up when you touched a pillar. Thank you too.

[brotagonist]

[smiles a bit.]

What was going down on there? With the cage and everything—

[antreegonist]

Haa . . . the lake is guilt, and he's the Resolution of this heart. What he does is sort it out so it doesn't break things down like it used to.

[brotagonist]

Resolution's in a cage?

[antreegonist]

He told you it was a leftover, right? That was the shape of Regret.

[brotagonist]

...oh. That makes sense.

[antreegonist]

*sheepish*

Stuff like that you don't think about so much, so it doesn't get changed . . . we didn't realize it might not go over so well during Dream's games.

[brotagonist]

Well, who expects to have people wandering around in their hearts anyway...

[antreegonist]

*flops down, a smile tugging the corners of his mouth*

I dunno. After tonight, I might.

[brotagonist]

[sits next to]

I really dunno how this— it still seems kinda like a dream.

[antreegonist]

*cocks his head*

It probably was, 'cos Mithos is still asleep on you and it's still nighttime. It's not one now, though.

[brotagonist]

Whoa...

I messed around with some other stuff too. Is it really okay?

[antreegonist]

*leans*

'Course.

[brotagonist]

[ruffle]

If you're sure.

[antreegonist]

*ruffles |DDD*

I trust you.

[brotagonist]

Yeah, that's what cat Genis said too. Okay.

[antreegonist]

Oh -- you went to Altessa's, huh...

[brotagonist]

Just for a little bit.

[antreegonist]

*haaah.*

Not many people looked at that side of things last time . . . I was kinda hoping you would.
