Scug rubs his head Against Cs arm
[He doesn't mind. CX lets Scug rub against his arm fading into the light. By now some of his fingers have turned into light, but he still is able to support himself leaning against… something in the Light.
…C hears something, or more accurate for this situation-
someone.]
…You.
scug is sad
:(((((((((((
please don't be sad. we’ll surely get out together.
I would have had to go anyway
-slugcat
…oh.
slugcat is crying
[He is also crying.]
I’m sorry you'll have to leave with me into The Light. I didn't want you to die with me.
good bc i won't be
-slugcat
I'll remember you.
at least you will be remembered -slugcat
I suppose so. I guess I’ll be remembered, at the least.
yeah
-slugcat
…yeah.
You know I’m going through the same thing right?
-slugcat
…yeah. I supposed we’re both going to dissolve in here, right? It's sad for us to go like this, really.
“…So it really is happening, huh…?”
“…I hope you finally get some form of happiness somehow, C.”
-Brook
[There is no outward response from C. All that remains of him is his manager coat, and a small black feather.]
[A note, however, lies on one of the now closed monitors.]
I'm sorry, whoever comes to read this note.
I know I'm already gone at this point, for the better good of everyone. I've caused enough harm myself.
…If Brook is reading this, I'm sorry for failing as a Manager so much. I shouldn't have made you suffer all of those loops.
-C
so this is how it ends
-slugcat
…i suppose it is. i’ve never felt like this before… it's like melting in an ice tray, floating so meaninglessly while dissolving.
[A white racoon with the most obnoxious bow on it's neck has been released into C's office.]
[It's tag notes that it is name is Sparkles and it's from a different facility]
[Unfortunately, there is nobody to receive Sparkles. CX left into The Light a while ago. Hi Amos!]
...
-slugcat
[Emptiness remains in his place. There is only a silence.]
[Day 50 ends and CX does not cry, for he has wept for so long. His eyes are bloodshot. He walks to The Light, each step carries a weight that's freed off him. He looks back once. To every Sephirot. He gives a nod, and a broken smile. Then CX turns back,
and is absorbed into The Light.]
[….]
[Yes, we can finally drift into an endless slumber. Such a beautiful finale, isn’t it? Beautiful, beautiful indeed.]
…What a shame, though. There is one last thing. Your duties are finished, and so are mine. Therefore…
I think I would like to continue living.
Avery has died. They were brave to the very end. -G
…Avery? She's gone..?
[CX has gone silent. He contemplates his situation. The silence in his office is for once, just silence.
He wishes it wasn't so.]
Manager, I have confirmed that the D-03-109 Corrosion has been dealt with. Clerk Designation Gamma16 has died. -Y
…Rest in peace, if you could, Gamma.
Something thuds against the door to the manager's office.
[He pauses. Wearing Twilight today was a smart choice. CX goes to get the weapon as well.
He can venture a guess to what's at his door.]
A small group of D-03-109-G16 Pawn Slimes is pushing up against the door from the outside, trying to get through the cracks in the doorframe to get at the manager.
[CX silently waits. There is a shake in his limbs, but he must fight back. He readies up Twilight just for when they get through the door.]
After a while, they corrode the edges of the door enough that they can fit through and start to push in, first sending forward one to be attacked as a distraction before the rest push in all at once, fanning out to surround the manager as if actively employing strategy.
[CX takes a moment, before gripping Twilight and spinning it around himself, low enough to hit the slimes. How is this twig of a man doing that?]
The slimes take turns poking and prodding at the assault to try and find an opening, doing their best to strike from behind when they find one, ultimately being little more than distractions considering the strength of the E.G.O in play. Not that the manager can really afford distractions.
[Considering they won't get hit, he suddenly stops by grinding it into the ground, and approaches, swinging it at some of the slimes ahead of him. CX also is taking such care to not step in the slime. Where's Angela when you need her?]
The slimes that get focused go inert in quick order, the slime remaining sizzling on the floor wherever it gets splattered, and as their numbers dwindle they become easier and easier to deal with. Eventually they are all inert, but the door remains partway corroded and might let new ones in.
[Oh boy. He stares at his door. CX decides to fuck it and still manage right there. Any slimes that want to go can get slashed.]
Slimes occasionally make their way into the room, specifically trying to distract the manager in critical moments involving the suppression of the other pawns in the facility.
[He keeps suppressing with a slash, returning to his work immediately after they go inert. CX cannot afford distractions. Not anymore.]
