WEEK 13 - I can't lie to you about your chances, but you have my sympathies.

the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (13)

sunday (41) survivors Something in the air breaks, shattering from deep within space itself - and to accompany that sensation is a psychic scream. The ship shakes, coming to a screeching halt as a bright light explodes outside it. It pulses, not unlike a heartbeat, that crawls and crawls along at a slow, grueling pace. The last illusion has been broken, the last mental tie severed and crushed. You've done well up until now, and you can reap the benefits of Her labor; the dead walk among you, after all, and as Her scream rings out, a burst of energy shoots through the residents of the Pygmalion. It's clearly a desperate bid, but it doesn't root itself in place. Instead, you feel lighter than ever - Her attempt to claim you has only unraveled the string that kept you in place. The 40% limit has been lifted, and you are at full capacity. The chains have been broken. Go freely, heroes. taken list profiles private conversations setting rulebook ENTER COMMAND_

It's a lot easier to take care of them now that we had the medical bay restocked recently. And my husband, he's good at taking care of wounds in a pinch. If it wasn't for him, I'd be dead.

[ but the news of her mother gives yuno pause. she... wants her to be okay, but yuno has no intention of going home with her, either. the abuse she endured is enough for a lifetime. now she just wants to be happy. ]

I think Jason and Clover will kill us before we get there, honestly. He's only got one eye, to begin with.

[batsuits]

Your --

[ he cuts himself off. that's again, not a topic he wants to touch because she seriously does not sound that old and it just brings to mind a ridiculous amount of terrible explanations instead.

what the hell. ]

Jason won't kill you. [ well, wait. ] He'll try not to kill you, I think. Have a little faith. How am I going to help with your wounds if you're dead before you get here?

[ that was teasing. that was his attempt at teasing and being a dad. let him live. ]

[bloodteller]

[ come on, bruce. you know you want to ask about the disney wedding. ]

My...?

[ but there's a tone to her voice that betrays her amusement. she knows that sounds young, but it doesn't matter. teen marriage is acceptable on the pyg!! ]

Then I guess I'll have to rewind time. [ she's not... entirely sure she can do that, actually. whatever. ] But... I don't think you're an illusion and I think you want to help us, so I'll trust you.

[ ... actually, you know. yuno could just... give jason his eyeball back. the fuck. that would fix a good portion of their problems. ]

[batsuits]

Nothing.

[ no, he super does not want to know. he's already been given enough info for a lifetime. let him rest.

and it super duper would, yuno!! actually, the more she offhandedly explains her powers, the more of a headache bruce gets and he's pretty sure he wants to end this conversation now. what the fuck, yuno. ]

Well, if that's what you have to do. Anyway, look, I have to get back to things here but thank you for telling me how things are going on that end. It really sheds some light on the situation. Hopefully, we'll see each other when your ship arrives.
