SHOWMASTER HEART GAME (FRIDAY)

A familiar voice can be heard above you, you're not sure if they're talking to you or not but it does feel like you're part of this conversation:

"What a Wonderful Story that you have. I've read it many times when I was feeling sad. You know, I wanted to keep it in my personal collection, but it doesn't seem that's going to be possible. To grant my wish, I'd have to sacrifice what it means to be a reader ... to become the story. That's The End that I'm looking for.

...

...

That's true.

Or perhaps individuals who did not wish to rely on "gods". No one likes to use that word for Legends.

Bet they wouldn't've minded replacing them, though.

[The train begins to move.]

I'd say that's a fair assessment. They wanted to take the powers of the Legends and give them to people. The Storytellers and them never got along for that reason.

[Sparrow keeps his balance easily without needing any of the straps or poles, wandering up and down the car. also peering out the windows in case they pass any stations that weren't on the map.]

And the Storytellers thought the Legends were sacred and all that shit?

[As you pass the windows, all you can see are horrified faces, blurs so you cannot see exactly what is passing by, but there's enough red to help you fill in any blanks as to why they look like they're screaming.]

Yes because their stories are the greatest. I thought it was all silly, but who am I to say, I was just their Legend after all.

...do you know anything about the Awoken's Legend by chance?
carrionmywaywardsun: (is easier than leaving)

[personal profile] carrionmywaywardsun 2026-01-17 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
They put it to sleep or some shit, right?

[personal profile] ticketmaster 2026-01-17 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. Much like the ocean in a way.

[Smiles.]

...How were the Awoken giving people Blessings? If they even fucking could.
ticketmaster: (pic#17512847)

[personal profile] ticketmaster 2026-01-17 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Well Blessings come from Legends.
carrionmywaywardsun: (baby you're the devil I know)

[personal profile] carrionmywaywardsun 2026-01-17 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
So they couldn't actually do shit. They just got to control who got Blessings instead of their Legend.
ticketmaster: (pic#18000680)

[personal profile] ticketmaster 2026-01-17 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. And they pulled apart their Legend to do so.

So in a way, the Legend still gave the blessings.
carrionmywaywardsun: (I'll burn you to the ground)

[personal profile] carrionmywaywardsun 2026-01-17 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Is anything of their Legend even left? Or did they use it all up?
ticketmaster: (pic#18000681)

[personal profile] ticketmaster 2026-01-17 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately, they're all gone.
carrionmywaywardsun: (and every time I try to stop)

[personal profile] carrionmywaywardsun 2026-01-17 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but at least they got to stop being a Legend.

[personal profile] ticketmaster 2026-01-17 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Smiling wide.]

That's true. But it has messed up a lot for many individuals . . .

[The train suddenly comes to a stop.]
carrionmywaywardsun: (here here comes)

[personal profile] carrionmywaywardsun 2026-01-17 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
[immediately heading for the door...what are you ,,,,,>>>,,,,,]

[once you step through the door but ticketmaster does not go with you]
