*gets up*
Why are you trying to kill us?

@Spiritblitz

Why is a bad thing to ask.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*rolls as I am pulled out*

@Spiritblitz

Why are you here?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

Do we need to go deeper?

<Snipped quote by The Multiverse>

...
*Straightens my posture and nods in determination*

@Stratocracy

*Punches the base of the skull, shoving the liquid down and sending you flying out of it, landing back in the minefield*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*For whatever reason, as you do that, all you sense is a soothing sourceless presence that seems to have raised the oppresive aura of the creature posing as a human in the form of Boss Johnsons, and quickly followed with a magnolia scent from nowhere in particular as a whisper reverberates across your mind*

Hmm... such complexity... intriguing...

*But before you can even notice this clearly that presence has now faded out leaving you with a breath of fresh air in what would have been one century of dull oppression*

@The Multiverse

...
*Smiles genuinely and blows steam off the top of my mug*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Doesn’t notice you as my attention is directed downward towards the fragment of you that nearly fell*

@Stratocracy

*Kicks the hatch over, entrenching the area in total darkness*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

That’s all you needed to say.

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

*Looks to you and nods in stern affirmation*

@Stratocracy

*Sips on hot chocolate above the liquid, looking down on all of you*

Myriad Reality

Dyklothiath Derbyloth: You stink! Get away bug! *I snap my fingers and you are separated into another world entirely, again re-created where this is no longer just a mind prison, and the normal bleak dystopian cyberpunk city, and you can't seem to quite put a finger on who those people who you interacted with for so long are, or you can't really remember them at least. However your aunt still feels slightly linked, though you don't know why, all you know now is that you have to fill out paperwork... hold on... why again?*

@The Monitor 2

*Snarkily turns around and grabs a paper off the stack, annoyed by again being interfered with*
Just know you’re with me now. And I see you as a threat.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Monitor 2>

The two who came with me... I—I don’t understand, who are you?

@Legend Begins

*Laughs to myself, staring down from the floor of the office building*
Don’t give in, Aunt Mid. This just got fun.

Myriad Reality

@Legend Begins, @Spiritblitz, @Stratocracy

*a storm of thoughts, doubts, fears, insecurities and emotional pain through and through seems to fill the dream space. It would be sourceless... or rather, from everyone involved here including @Etcetera Misty, and the images mix into every dream world that had Misty interacted with recently since the new mind visitors tried to explore her situation, now all that is of these dreamscapes is a mess, a storm of chaos and fear as Misty is pulled away from anyone's interaction, making her seemingly disappear beyond anybody's reach for now.

@Etcetera Misty you just wake up in your desk at work, with three different phones ringing, and the boss, Jhonsons, just staring you down in disappointment as you get the idea, that you did a very bad job the last week... it could have been brilliant work, but this is not what is felt in the immediate cubicle you are in...*

@The Monitor 2

You can't fool me.
*Looks up and cackles*
Those were real.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Choose your answer carefully.
*Drops my arms back to my side*
I have a way of knowing if you really mean it.

@Stratocracy

And you don't get to know!
*The liquid shears both of us in half*
