Game 2 - Clover

[crittersheep]

[A clover shaped crystal rises from the ground. You instinctively know to touch it for Death's Eye to receive your answer.

You are bound to your flock by a thin thread, making it impossible to separate, but you may still answer individually.]

Yes, it is. But it's all I have keeping me going, some nights. That if I keep walking, I'll find a way out, or something that can change. And until then.... until then, there will be things to inspire me to take that next step. Like a song I want to finish, or... time with the people I want to be with.

I've... thought about it a lot, actually. One of the things I haven't told anyone is that—I'm reincarnated? I think... It doesn't come up very often. But my first life wasn't—I was twelve.

It has to be because there's so much to do and see in life that I didn't get to see. There's more to life than the hospital room I spent most of that life in.

...that's... very young.

I was a really sick kid.

This—me? Is a lot healthier. I can do everything I couldn't before.

... I'm glad that you got a second chance, Lyra.

Re: DISCUSSION

[aididitmyway]

... I am, too.

Don't tell Sugar, though. I never told her.

Re: DISCUSSION

[beathollow]

It's not mine to tell.

[Just like it's not her place to say that Nyx is the same as she is, not that she knows who he was.]

... Thank you.

As noble as you can make that sound, is that all the true value of life is? To claw and struggle and fight for scraps?

Re: DISCUSSION

[beathollow]

... No, but it's part of the process, I think. Everyone must have their own things that make life worth it. To discover those bright spots, and to help them shine more- to find your happiness and help it grow. That's the real point of it, I think.
