Do you think I did it on purpose?

[disenfranchised]

I'M JUST SAYING.

[didnteventry]

You're just being a brat.

[feeling along the walls for the inevitable weak point]

There should be something to break this with somewhere in here.

[disenfranchised]

Y-you're really going to break it -- ? [ his heart jumps a little at the thought of seeing them, yet he still finds himself looking for the supposed item. ]

Nngh... [ oh, there. a big socket wrench. ]

[didnteventry]

Do you want to sit here indefinitely?

[disenfranchised]

More than I'd rather die, yes!

[didnteventry]

[Looks at Shinji.

Looks at wall.

Looks back to Shinji.]

You can give me the wrench or we can have a heart-to-heart. You pick.

[disenfranchised]

[ GRUMBLES. ]

FINE, TAKE IT

[didnteventry]

Thanks.

[ This really says something about our relationship.

BUT HEY taking that wrench and SMASHING A HOLE THE WALL it's actually very thin

there is a hallway and the worms are already pouring in, but he's used to it by now so he just kicks the hole bigger and runs]

[disenfranchised]

[ he tries to mentally prepare himself for this, but.
nope. screaming and running behind byakuya. ]

I CHANGED MY MIND, I CHANGED MY MIND!

[didnteventry]

[IT'S TOO LATE AND HE'S NOT DIGNIFYING THAT WITH A RESPONSE

ont he bright side the hall is only about 100 feet long and at the end there's a door!!

you just have to not slip and fall on the worms on the floor.]

[disenfranchised]

[ SHRIEKS LIKE A GIRL, STUMBLING ALL THE WAY. ]

FUCK, FUCK, FU --







[ oh. he fell. ]

[didnteventry]

[Oh my fucking god you useless kid

There is a brief instant where he stops and looks like he's considering running off on his own

then he makes a face and reaches for Shinji even though they are now going to have worms crawling on them]

You're so stupid!

[disenfranchised]

[ FREAKING OUT, SCREAMING, SCRAMBLING -- hey you dickweed, i totally saw that HE'S GRABBING ONTO BYAKUYA'S HAND AND NOT LOOKING AT ALL HAPPY ABOUT IT. ]

Y-YOU'RE STUPID, THIS IS STUPID -- FUCK [ he's up on his feet, practically hyperventilating as he tries to slap worms off of him. ]

[didnteventry]

Just go!

[shoving Shinji in front of him LOOK WHAT A GOOD DAD HE IS]

[disenfranchised]

Okay, okay -- ! [ he runs, looking back. ]

[didnteventry]

[He's just going to get them to the door and shove past Shinji to pull on it.

It's a heavy metal door. He doesn't remember it being a heavy metal door before. When he pulls it open a crack, light steams in -- outside is what appears to be a little local park in summer, with sunlight so bright the other side of the door is too hot to touch. It also lacks a handle on that side.

He looks troubled for a sec. There are also worms encroaching.]

[disenfranchised]

[ there's really no time to fully process thoughts, just GO ]

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR C'MON

[didnteventry]

I'm--

Just--

[Just that there's no way for one person to get out the door. It's too heavy to open enough to get out of it without being burnt by the opposite side. Somehow it feels like it keeps getting heavier, too.

But there's not really time to explain that so he just hauls it open all the way so Shinji can go.]

You first.

[disenfranchised]

[ he quirks an eyebrow at that, wondering what the hesitation is for. however, he's shinji matou and his overpowering sense of fear pushes him to listen and scramble out, but he watches for byakuya to follow -- really feeling like something is wrong with this situation that he can't pinpoint. ]

Okay, d-dad, let's go!

[didnteventry]

[He does make a token effort!

It earns him a burnt hand, which he yanks back, thus letting go of the door and -- oops. Yeah he saw that coming. And of course the door continues to increase in weight, and he can no longer make it budge.

The best option now he thinks is to just try not to sound like he's freaking out. Which he is of course because ew gross and impending painful death.]

God damn.

[disenfranchised]

[ it takes shinji a good half second to unstick his feet from where they are, to try to help with the door. FUCK that's hot, he had no idea. instinctively retracting from it, he grits his teeth and tries to budge it using his shoulder, but it's just too hot and too heavy. ]

FUCK FUCK FUCK -- [ he tells his old man to go die frequently, but he never actually meant it. not like this. losing both of his parents this way wasn't supposed to happen. and it's so terrifying that he actually forgets that it's supposed to be a dream. ] NO, WAIT --

[didnteventry]

It's j-just a dream, idiot.

[If he just leans against the door and steadies his breathing he can remind himself that this is his dream and it only has to hurt as much as he's actually experienced pain. He's experienced this death a thousand times in dreams, and he knows he can't feel worse here than he can remember.

Thanks to Kirei that's only one step above having crest worms eat your nerves, but also thanks to Kirei he knows how not to scream.

It doesn't help the gross crying and other pain noises Shinji gets to hear though. Also gross worm squirming and slithering and crunchy sounds.]

[disenfranchised]

[ it doesn't matter, because shinji still has to hear it. he yells until his voice is hoarse, hitting, kicking the door and recoiling each time he does. ]

THEN FUCKING WAKE UP, ALREADY -- [ wake up so he doesn't have to listen to this. ]

[didnteventry]

[It's hard to think straight when he hurts this much. Through the hyperventilating, he says the first thing that comes to mind.]

It's s-slow-- 'cause it's never enough to-- t-to make up for it...
