…What has S.N.A.P. done?
Shattered. Shattered herself just like that, right before its eyes. T-To be fair, it… It couldn’t make excuses to get out of this. She snapped, she shattered her screen.
And then she approaches. What? She shouldn’t be able to do that, she- wait. WAITWAITWAITWAITWAITWAITWAIT-
..Vee didn't notice Snap appearing in the lobby. she was busy with a revalation of her own.
she killed herself. or more accurately, some evil, warped version of her killed her the most recent run. she didn't want to believe it, but... the voice, the way the screen flickered, the way she spoke like how she used to speak...
she can't help but question a few things about seesay. not really, of course, nothing major. she just... what happened to that version of her to cause this? what about seesay caused some version of her to become so... so....
oh is someone else here?
Meanwhile, everything that just happened kept replaying in S.N.A.P.’s head.
Now, it’s died plenty of times before. This one in particular, however… The deafening sound of Veeronica’s(?) screen breaking, the way her corpse approached so rapidly, cold chains wrapping around S.N.A.P.’s neck before it got launched into the air. She was gone now, and it’s all its fault. And with Seesay still gone, it… IT-
Oh, it probably… should not be doing that.
"woahwoahWOAH SNAP BUD!"
Vee bolts over, grabbing both arms and pulls them away from snaps hair, visibly stressed for a second before looking a bit more relieved... and exhausted.
"H-Hey, bud ya can't just... whatever. Just glad i found ya finally, I've been looking for you all over."
WH- Vee’s fine!? That isn’t right, it literally-
Ohhhh, now it sees! The whole thing with the Craven-looking Veeronica was just a dream! How did S.N.A.P. not realize earlier? That didn’t feel like a dream- What a RELIEF that it was all JUST A PRANK by its subconscious.
“Aww, Vee..!” Tears begin to stream down its face. “I waz looking all over for ya, too.” It says with a small smile.
Okay, yeah, ow, its head hurts now. S.N.A.P. really shouldn’t have pulled that hard.
...She them hugs you for a second, before letting go and standing back up, the exhaustion gone from her expression
"So, uh. Ya see anything cool while you were out on your little, uh, adventure or whatevs? would be nice to catch up after... however long it was..."
...that's a whole lotta guilt that just bled through that last part of the sentence wow.
S.N.A.P… really didn’t want to look back at that “dream” again. Please.
“Eh. Nothing much, really. There waz a weird memory bird thing, but other than that, I waz juzt trying to meet back up with you and Zeezay. Thiz place iz practically infinite, zo it’z not zurprizing it took a while. (•︵ •)”
It’s trying to see what it could to do help with the guilt without making it obvious.
“Oh! Zpeaking of which, have you zeen Zeezay anywhere? Ztill haven’t zeen her at all zince the zmoke thing.”
"Yeah, I've seen her around here and there! Taught her a little bit about skating. It was cool. Uh. Tho I haven't seen her super recently... she's probably fine though, this is basically their home and all. Same with you, i dunno why I was worrying so much about ya when you were literally made here!"
“Eh. Big weird place with big weird guyz that want your head. It’z underztandable.”
“It’z… nice to know you care, though.”
It looked away for a moment as it uttered that last part. It was barely audible, but audible nonetheless.
"I mean, why wouldn't i care? your my friend! ya stuck with me through my bullshit and i wanna return the favor, i don't see why this would be any different!"
"...so what's being human been like for you?"
“Ugh, it ZUCKZ ۹(๑`^´๑)۶ ! Feelz like I’m back at that dumb place again with the way I feel zo weak and powerlezz. I mean, it’z alwayz kinda been like thiz, but at leazt everything waz familiar…”
Oh, maybe S.N.A.P. shouldn’t have…
“Uhh, how’z thiz place been treatin’ ya?”
"...the same. still running for my life, still just trying to make the best of a really shitty situation. only really better cuz i can take a break for as long as i want tecnically, but that only gets a purgatory so far"
...Strange. it seems like it didn't effect her at all. in fact, she seems completely fine!
…
She’s probably just used to it already. Veeronica’s already been in another death loop for who knows how long, after all.
“Yeahh, being a zinner zuckz. Nice to zee thiz place iz better than that abzolute dump back there, even if it doezn’t really zay much.”
S.N.A.P. is just lightly swinging its oversized sleeves around. To be honest, being able to fidget with them was probably one of the only upsides of being a sinner.
“Oh, uhh… Zorry for the zmoke thing back in Reprieve, by the way. Never been down there before and… Yeah, the intended way out waz in fact the beacon.”
"Eh, i think it was more of a happy accident, you know? seesay made up with sin i think, and i got my arm... Mostly, un-fucked up, you know? even if it was a little traumatizing on my end. so all well that ends well, right?"
...ignore the way it still itches and twitches sometimes, she's ignored it for this long, she's gonna be fine.
“Oh, glad to zee you two had better and more eventful timez!”
…It’s still thinking about what Antero said.
"... do you wanna learn how to skate maybe?"
{pleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyes}
Its face lights up.
"OH, DO I!"
S.N.A.P. has seen Veeronica skate around quite a few times and let it say that she looks so cool cruising and zooming around like that! Please teach it so it can be awesome like her.
"Alrighty then! just let be remember how to exist first and then we can get right to it!"
she's joking obvoiusly, she just needs to set something up quickly. but whatever humor it's funny
S.N.A.P. giggled at the joke before rocking back and forth as it waited. Ohh, this was going to be amazing! It was going to try its very hardest to learn, and then Vee will be so proud, and Seesay will be so impressed, and maybe… Just maybe… It could finally-
"O-Kay, so uh. well. i don't really have any saftey gear sure, but i should be able to get you basically skating on like the very basics of movement. uh. but first things first, just try stepping on the board, alright?"
Heh… This should be easy.
Or, at least that’s what S.N.A.P. thought as it tried to hop on only for the skateboard to roll around and cause it to wobble around. It just kept getting close to falling and making it worse every time it managed to catch itself. To be honest, it almost felt like a miracle when S.N.A.P. finally somehow managed to make it stop.
Oh, this wasn’t how it was supposed to go! How embarrassing. It’s never going to live this down…
