Busy and in pain.

Does anyone have a clue where my lovely friend Dark is? I just want to have a conversation with them but I can't particularly seem to get out.

Hello, Wilford.

Does anyone have a clue where my lovely friend Dark is? I just want to have a conversation with them but I can't particularly seem to get out.

With strawberry drizzle on the whipped cream?

I apologize for all of the complaining I'm going to do these next four days.

I don't complain a lot, I think I deserve it given the time of year.

[the-perfect-villain]

Would you like some cocoa?

I take this as a compliment. Thank you.

Oh, I've let my curiosities get the better of me, it seems!

Hello! I saw Dark writing to you, and I couldn't help but send an ask myself! You say you're in a cafe, yes? What a quaint little pocket dimension! Is the coffee any good? I do love myself a good cup of coffee. -@a-configuration-of-being

the coffee's very good, actually. there's a couple of espresso makers, so ive been able to experiment. lavender mocha is my favorite so far.

there's a TV, and it likes to echo everytime i say the phrase "cup of coffee" with a clip of a man saying, "a damn fine cup of coffee". i think it's really funny.

I've always had a preference for the autumnal notes in a tea. I have quite the autumnal personality, one would say.

Pardon my intrusion, but I enjoy a good cup of lemon ginger with honey.

We would first need to talk.

We have so much to discuss, and so little time most of the time.

Whenever we visit, it's typically Wilford doing the talking, but there are times where we have a few moments to ourselves.

They tend to be awkward at best. I'm certain you could imagine that.

I have been curious about you since our last conversation.

I find myself wondering how you are doing.. I figured I should check in. I hope that I am not overstepping in doing so. -@the-perfect-villain

no, it's... it's nice to hear from you.

im not as cooped up, if barely. i managed to dream up a space for myself - it's a little cafe space, not much bigger than a train car and a half. but it's a world of difference. i can talk so much better here.

...if you don't mind me asking, how are you?

[the-perfect-villain]

Mayhaps.

Again, that would be a dream... To have even a semblance of my old friend back.

[the-perfect-villain]

Oh, how one could only hope.

Frankly that would be a dream.

There came a time I assumed peace was impossible, but.. Now? Now I'm not so certain. Something has changed within Mark, despite my reservations about him. He reminds me of how he used to be.

[the-perfect-villain]

I wouldn't be surprised.

He hates watching us fight. I don't know if he truly understands why we don't get along. Though, who knows.. Maybe he does.

Wilford and Mark.. My Wilford and Mark.. They're brothers. He cares about both of us an incredible amount, so it wouldn't surprise me if he were trying to get us to reconcile in some way or another.

Perhaps he wants us to put our differences aside.

Or perhaps he's as tired of it as I am.

I don't know.

[the-perfect-villain]

I'm glad that you've managed to find yourself in a nicer space. It's better to be somewhere that feels even slightly comfortable, rather than being somewhere that simply serves as a reminder of what happened.

I am.. Doing well.

"Life" has been a bit busy.

Wilford has wanted to visit Mark and has been dragging me along so much recently that it's almost like I see him every other day.

I think there's a reason for it.. Wilford always has a reason, despite seeming like he only goes where the wind takes him.. I know him well enough to know that.

He's nothing short of a madman, but he's oddly wise and incredibly observant.. I think he's noticed something.

[the-perfect-villain]

That doesn't mean you deserve everlasting hell trapped in a mirror.

give it back, thief.

.... I don't think I can. I'm sorry.

[the-perfect-villain]

You did what you could in the situation we were in.

None of us knew what to do in that moment..

You didn't deserve what happened to you. No one deserves that.

give it back, thief.

.... I don't think I can. I'm sorry.

[the-perfect-villain]

... You never deserved any of this.

give it back, thief.

.... I don't think I can. I'm sorry.

[the-perfect-villain]

If it means anything... I would.

Your place is not the inside of that wretched mirror.

give it back, thief.

.... I don't think I can. I'm sorry.

[the-perfect-villain]

....

I thought I was saving you... But I see now how wrong I was.

I didn't want you to experience the everlasting pain we experience every waking day.. But you're experiencing a different kind of everlasting pain.

And for that... I'm so sorry.. Though I know it likely means nothing.

.. I am not your Dark.. But I only wish yours finds a way to rectify what happened.. At least somewhat..

give it back, thief.

.... I don't think I can. I'm sorry.
