SayakaQuest Thread 10: Glory To The Death

[x] Let them finish crying.

You stay back, and you watch them both cry. You want to help them, but you know that you really can't right now.
They never needed it in the first place.
[x] Telepathy talk to...
-[x] Kyouko.


'No. No, I'm not okay.' You take a deep, shuddering breath. 'C-can we talk about this later? I...' You gulp. '...I need time to think.'

She holds your arm. 'Sayaka...you're thinking about...?'

'L-later.'

She frowns. 'Okay.'

[x] Talk to...
-[x] Sukuyo.
-[x] Sukuyo's dad.


Eventually, they stop crying. You see her dad wiping his eyes as he holds her daughter close. He clenches his teeth, and he wipes his nose. "I-I love you, Sukuyo."

"Same." Sukuyo murmurs. She wipes a few tears of her own from her eyes. "S-same."

You quickly jot down your mom's number, and you move closer. They're still crying, but it's much more controlled. "...My mom's...my mom's number is here." You say. "She knows what you're going through...you can talk to her if you need to."

He nods. "Thank...thanks." He says. "I...but right now, I just want...to be with my daughter."

You leave the number on a nearby coffee table.

[x] Text mom.

Your Text said:
We gave your number to Sukuyo's dad. He knows now. More details when I'm home.

You send it. Your knees are weak. You feel heavy. Kyouko's holding on but your head still hurts.

I'm thinking do one last gem check, or remind Sukuyo to keep an eye on her gem, then leave. Then we get to talk to Kyouko about this horrible revelation on the walk back and won't that be fun! for everyone involved. That hidden text.

I'm seriously want to get home before facing facts... but oh well.

[X] Leave.

[X] Leave.

"E-Excuse me." You say, before you leave with Kyouko. You quickly move out onto the sidewalk by her apartment.

You feel sick.

[X] Talk to...
-[X] Kyouko.

"Kyouko..." You turn to her. You don't keep yourself strong anymore.

"Sayaka?" She asks, before you collapse. You hold her tightly as you lean against her and start to sob. You hold her tightly, as she just holds you back. "Sayaka..."

"I-It's my fault." You rub your face into her shoulder as you cry messily. "I-it's my fucking fault-!"

"No...it's not." Kyouko says, quietly. You can't tell if she really believes that or not.

[OPTION SELECT]

[] Talk to her.

[] Go home.

[] Stay here.

[] Write-in what to do.
 
[X] Talk to her

Ye gods Kyouko, you fuck this up and I'm turning your hair into a codpiece. Bestgirl or no.
 
Looking at that movie's plot summary, it seems to me that we aren't.
It's an imperfect comparison, yeah, since Sayaka being alive doesn't really make the crapsack universe of PMMM any worse, strictly speaking. But still, our survival has made some serious ripples in the timeline and there are a number of bad things that wouldn't have happened were we dead. Of course, there are a lot of good things that wouldn't have transpired if we'd kicked it, so basically I'm going to conclude that I was trying to be witty and failed.

There's still a creepy rabbit tormenting us, though.

Kyubey: I disagree with your assertion that I am creepy.
