yes i’m drawing 15-years-later ib AU comics 12 years post release date. what about it.

i wonder if writing a young teen!ib on here/making a verse for her might be a good idea too, actually?? i definitely struggle writing her dialogue atm because i have zero idea how nine year olds speak (like literally no clue at all. as embarrassing as that is...) - but i don't want to make her too old, either, honestly. maybe she could be somewhere between 12-14? i think that could be interesting!

❝ There is no way. . ❞

the agony of forever and a day begins to howl within the hollow of his bones and soul the moment his gaze lands on this peculiar child. He could have sworn that the lights of this vintage gallery have just flickered when her voice filled the specious hall. But that can't be, right? There is no way the susurrus of a promise is echoing through the open windows, or that the long brunet locks lingering at the corner of his eye every now and then match perfectly those of hers. But above all, those rubies that illuminate the darkness in his old nightmares .. can't be hers, can they?

But his name spills so naturally from her mouth: as though they have been together all this time; known each other better than newly met strangers. That tight, very tight rope around his neck - which his hands could not rip off all this time - begins to loosen around his throat. So then surely, hopefully, this child of crimson is the one his soul has been looking for.

how foolish of a thought is this! Utterly delusional, isn't it? But even so, he finds himself kneeling before the girl. On his face is the troubled look of someone who has gotten caught between a maelstrom of emotions. ❝ You have my apologies. ❞ The brief smile that shines through is an offering of comfort: both for her and himself.

❝ Douce petite*, I wonder why the longer I look at you, I feel like I am waking from a long, very long and painful slumber.. ❞ Through mauve locks, onyx eyes stare into her eyes; head tilting slightly as he forces himself to go through memories. No matter how faded they are, there should be something that would trigger it all. Perhaps a name? ❝ And you seem to know my name, so I must be knowing you. It feels like I do — won't you tell me your name? ❞

[ibstract]

Garry's words don't exactly offer comfort - in fact, as he confirms the very thing Ib fears the most, they instead sting mercilessly, causing her stomach to drop with utter dread. Garry really doesn't remember her. He wasn't just playing pretend. And yet, even when his words cause her pain... they somehow feel almost soothing at the same time. Like a gentle touch coming in to ease an aching wound, Ib feels comfort; something like hope sitting within her next to the sorrow she feels and making it hurt a little less.

Of course, Ib doesn't think any of that in so many words. She's just a child, in the end. But even she's aware of the mix of sensations pulling her heart in different ways... and that strange comfort that Garry offers in the midst of anxiety feels exactly the same as she remembers it being.

"...My name is Ib." Ib says, uncertain - just as politely as she'd been raised to be. It feels strange to introduce herself to him again, and she still doesn't understand why he doesn't remember anything, but... there were a lot of things she didn't understand back at that Gallery.

"You don't need to be sorry..." she adds, looking up at him with a gaze that's a little too intense, her eyes swimming with emotion. She doesn't want Garry to think he's done anything wrong. After all, he's done so much to protect her. He wouldn't forget on purpose, Ib is sure.

"I was worried that you weren't okay. I'm really happy to see you... so, it's okay." Ib is a quiet girl, but at the very least, she knows that's what she really wants to say. She wants to ask more - the question that's been weighing on her mind since she came home, but bites her lip instead.

"And, I wanted to say thank you... I didn't get to say it before."

There are many things that Ib is still too young to understand. The adult world is often an alien one, strange and surreal - and though she knows of things like heartbreak and death in theory, until she's experienced them, they might as well be just as real as a unicorn is.

But right now, in this moment... the tangibility of those adult things - pain, and the desperation to escape it - are hitting her full force. She never imagined her heart could feel so bad. It's such a heavy, awful sensation... and though she's experienced similar emotions only once before, she'd almost managed to forget them - or at least, she'd forgotten exactly how they felt, under her skin and in her soul.

"...Mmm..." Ib hums uncertainly as she looks up at Garry, unable to find the words she wants to say. Has Garry really forgotten her? Even though he was always so kind... maybe, just like the adults have told her over and over, what happened back then wasn't real at all. Just her mind playing tricks on her. That thought scares her, but she's too distracted by her bewildered sorrow to really focus on it.

"Garry... please don't say that. Lying is bad. You... you do remember me, don't you?"

𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙝 𝙞𝙨 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙨𝙡𝙚𝙚𝙥, some say, but he wouldn't know. When his heavy eyelids finally rose to reveal the dreadful halls of the gallery, all that he was able to recall was. . what was it again?

𝙖 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙨𝙚.

The answer comes to him only after catching the petite form before him. In her chest is a real, pulsing heart that is way too delicious for the residents of this place, and in his own is an inked, faux one. It doesn't even beat, perhaps that is why the petals of his rose is paler than those lying on the floor, scattered all around like confetti. Unlike them though, what he has sure does feel more .. amaranth.

𝙜𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙮.

Sounds like a beloved one's name. Its weight is so heavy on his chest that for a moment, breathing becomes hard. Really hard. All he can do in that moment is focus on her : a lovely child of red. So vibrant, so warm. But is he the cause for the worry in those ruby eyes? This Garry that she speaks of . . he knows not who he is. Could he really be him?

❝ Ib. ❞ Huh? Why did he say that? ❝ Ah, I think I am. . lost. ❞

[ibstract]

"..."

Does he know her? She desperately wants to believe that he does. Why else would he say her name? But Garry doesn't cry out in relief or fear, or sweep her into a hug, or give her a reassuring smile. Instead, he seems strangely... subdued, and it's obvious even to Ib that she was right - something is very wrong here.

She doesn't know how to reply to his statement, though. It's not even a question, not really, but she feels he needs some kind of answer. For a moment, Ib wishes her parents were here to tell her what to say... but she can't keep dreaming when she needs to speak up.

"Lost?" she asks, repeating his words back to him.

"Do you know... where you are?"
