text|un: gambler | Post The Liar's Mansion Incident - why is this sad text the first here😭

[dregs]

{ tribbie's is the last on his list to send, and probably the hardest. he doesn't know her as well as some of the others, but they'd had a conversation about death before. maybe if he hadn't died first he would have known to give her a proper send off, something of a proper ceremony.

and from what boothill had said, it hadn't been quick like his own.

there's no words of comfort he can really offer, and it wouldn't fit him to do so. not if he has an image to keep but. but. }

Tribbie,

I owe you an apology. Unfortunately for us both I'm not the best at them, so instead of empty words, is there anything you'd like for me to make it up to you?

un: Tribos; How dare you

[balloontiful]

No, it's fine. It's just something that I'll have to deal with in time.

[Because at the end of the day, the pain of death would pass with time. As terrible as it was, she was alive now and she would have to learn from her mistakes.]

Thank you for checking up on me. What about yourself? Is there anything I can do to help?

😔

[dregs]

They do say time heals all.

{ granted, that usually is only if you don't get more and more shit piled on top of those initial issues. seems fake to him. }

Of course. Your passing hurt a number of people, myself included. We should have made better preparations to ensure your safety. So, just concentrate on yourself.

[balloontiful]

It's okay, a lot of us died so it was difficult to keep up with everyone.

I should say the same for you too. And for everyone else.

[dregs]

Maybe so, but if each group had taken some of the items, you may have been able to buy yourselves some time.

{ not to mention the status lenses would have given them weaknesses to hit. }

And I'll be fine, really. Don't add me to your worries.

[balloontiful]

But that wouldn't be fair.

How come you can worry about me but I can't worry about you?

[dregs]

Because in my case, it was instant.

[balloontiful]

……same goes for me too.

[dregs]

Boothill didn't make it sound that way.

[balloontiful]

...I'm sorry.

[dregs]

You really don't need to apologise to me, but the circumstances were different.

And if it wasn't for my actions it may not have happened to you at all.

[balloontiful]

Even so! It's not fair that you can care about me but I can't care about you!

can't believe this is how he realises - aventurine and boothill like 🫣

[dregs]

Because I'm the reason you died to begin with.

Oh nooo

[balloontiful]

...

And I know you didn't mean to.

well soon... hopefully

[dregs]

Funny how everyone keeps saying that.

You're taking this better than I expected.

[balloontiful]

...Death is a part of life.

Someday, we all have to face it no matter what. It hurts knowing that it'll happen to me one day but...it's something I have to bear.

[dregs]

Even so, sometimes you can choose how it comes for you.

{ at least most people can... and by this point phainon has probably got back to him and told him tribbie is older than them all, so he's processing... that... because that sure is something. }

[balloontiful]

I suppose.

Life doesn't always make it easy for us to choose though.

[dregs]

No, it doesn't.

{ Or even if it does, sometimes there's a power out there stopping you from getting your wish }

When you have time, I'd like to make it up to you though, a treat of anything you'd like.

[balloontiful]

...It can be whatever you want to give me.

I'm not picky.

[dregs]

Then I'll give it some thought and let you know.

[balloontiful]

Is there anything I can do for you?

[dregs]

I have enough people worrying over me already, the only thing you can do for me is to look out for yourself, do whatever helps.

[balloontiful]

Alright then.

....Just make sure you be careful.

[dregs]

You as well, Tribbie.

Which reminds me, I have a file for you when we next meet. Myself and Firefly found one on each of us while we were there. I'll return everyone's files to them when I next see them.
