Icky: *at Roxy's grave* Hey Roxy, i-it's me... *Sits down* you know, sometimes, I wish that I was still at my parents'. Even then, you wouldn't be...you know... Oh, and...I never got to thank you for... saving my life...
*in Icky's mind, flashback*
Icky: *in mind: I can't do this anymore. The torture, the assault, it's too much! Goes up to the top of his school* I...I just want this all to end! The pain...the voices...please...! *Walks to the edge of the roof and gets ready to jump...*
Roxy: *immediately grabs Icky's arm* Icky! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
Icky: *turns around* W-Why are you here?
Roxy: Don't change the topic, bro. Do you want to fucking die?!
Icky: I...
Roxy: ANSWER ME!
Icky: Yes! Yes! I do! Ok?! I hate this world, it just wants me to suffer!
Roxy: Think about your family! Your parents-
Icky: *quietly* They're the reason I'm here...
Roxy: *shocked* Icky...is...is everything ok? At home?
Icky: *silent, tears rolling down his face*
Roxy: Icky...please, tell me. I'm really worried about you!
Icky: Why would you be...
Roxy: Because you literally just tried to kill yourself!
Icky: My...parents...they s...they...sexually assaults me every night and hits me while I...I'm naked...
Roxy: What the- They're crazy!
Icky: You see why I want to end this? My life is torture!
Roxy: i-if you don't mind...can I...see what they did to you?
Icky: *hesitantly nods and lifts up his hoodie, showing Roxy his back*
Roxy: ...oh my fucking god...
Icky: Just let me end this! It's too much!
Roxy: No! I...I'll help you. I'll help you escape those psychos!
Icky: you...you'd do that for me?!
Roxy: *smiles* that's what best friends do.
Icky: I...
Roxy: *hugs Icky, rubbing his back to sooth him*
Icky: *hugs him back tightly, refusing to let go and sobbing*
Roxy: You'll never be alone, Icky. Never. I promise you...
*flashback ends*
Icky: *tears streaming down his face* y-you kept your promise...you never left me, didn't you?
Roxy (as spirit): No...Icky...I never did, and I never will...
