404: no pin found

[ً @daigoelite]

@astronautheals I imagine so . This island never fails to surprise me with its inhabitants .

How’d you become a Lycan , then ?

[ً @daigoelite]

@neuronrepair At least I know you aren’t someone I hurt back home .

What brings you here , then ?

[ً @daigoelite]

Wh— what ?

I’m not sure I’m familiar with either .

[ᴮʳⁱᵍʰᵗᵉʳ ᵀʰᵃⁿ ᵃ ᶜᵒᵐᵉᵗ ! @neuronrepair]

Heya!

And.. no. I’m from Helios. Well.. before that, I was from Brooklyn and all.

[ً @daigoelite]

@neuronrepair

Ah , hello . .

I don’t think I’ve seen you before— were you . . Someone from Oninoshima ?

[ً @daigoelite]

@astronautheals

I always loved wolves .

Curious , where’s the rest of your pack ?

[ً @daigoelite]

@TEALT0ASTER

I know you . . Crossed paths when foundation and ice king duked it out , right ?

[ً @daigoelite]

It isn’t worth much anyway .
Big place , nice things , but if you have nobody to care— it’s all worthless .

These days , with us moving so much , it’s impossible to settle down anyways .

What do you want *now* , though ?

[𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐡, 𝐓𝐨 𝐚 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐞 @firesreborn]

I was thinking more.. snobby.

Trust me. I was /very/ hung up about the glamorous life. It was one of my dreams but.. nowadays, I tend to leave that behind.

[ً @daigoelite]

They work in strange ways , no doubt . Confusing little creatures .

Speaking of . . Are the Seven planning anything to stop . . That ?

[𝑨 𝑪𝑯𝑰𝑳𝑳 𝑰𝑵 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑨𝑰𝑹 @FR0STEDFURY]

So I’ve seen . .

Even without Genō interference , some
new ones managed to pop up here . .

[ً @daigoelite]

Cunning ? Mischievous ?
Something like that ?

Seems like it’s what we all have in common .

[𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐡, 𝐓𝐨 𝐚 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐞 @firesreborn]

I can’t say I’m proud of what I did. Or.. have done, really.

( she said as he glanced away but, she sighed softly. )

But back then? I was very.. um.. agh, what’s the word..? Or.. words..

[ً @daigoelite]

The very same . They’ve been . . Changed by whatever Geno’s doing , but undeniably the same .

[𝑨 𝑪𝑯𝑰𝑳𝑳 𝑰𝑵 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑨𝑰𝑹 @FR0STEDFURY]

Why thank you , I wholeheartedly
intend to keep my approachability intact . .

Is that spark of goodness those little
sprites I’ve been seeing lately ?

[ً @daigoelite]

I find that hard to believe .

You’ve been nothing but easy to talk to thus far .

Sounds like the feeling’s mutual , too .

(( He smirked , glancing away . ))

Though I can certainly imagine you doing some villainous things .

[𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐡, 𝐓𝐨 𝐚 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐞 @firesreborn]

You? Waste my time? Darling, I’m /past/ that. Just be glad you didn’t meet me on Helios. Come to think of it.. I was a bitch.

( she laughed to herself but she sat down as well as her smile was kept. )

Though.. agreed. Nice to meet you, Daigo. +

[ً @daigoelite]

+

And , I’d be happy to keep talking . I just . . don’t want to waste your time .

[ً @daigoelite]

Daigo .

And— it was a lucky guess . Hope mentioned she had a sister who may or may not have opened Pandora’s box .

I thought she meant it as a metaphor before you told me your story . .

Glad we’re properly introduced .

(( He sat now , smiling softly . ))

+

[𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐡, 𝐓𝐨 𝐚 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐞 @firesreborn]

Yeah? Same to you. It’s.. honestly nice.

( she was shocked that he knew her name but, she didn’t know his. )

Well, I do. But.. I think I’d rather talk a bit more. If that’s alright.. um..

Sorry, what do I call you..? Since you knew.. my name. Somehow..

[ً @daigoelite]

Makes sense . You’re the most approachable one I’ve ever met .

My homeland was known for its malevolent spirits , but there was once goodness there . .

In fact , some of it found its way here , even— though much more unusual than they were before .

[𝑨 𝑪𝑯𝑰𝑳𝑳 𝑰𝑵 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑨𝑰𝑹 @FR0STEDFURY]

I can say the same for you as well . .

Nice ones that is . . most of the ones
in Oninoshima were just hostile , my
species would be displeased to see them . .

[ً @daigoelite]

The same to you , Valeria .

I truly hope we meet again . It’s refreshing to meet a kindred spirit around here .

I shouldn’t keep you any longer , though . You have your own bridges to rebuild .

[𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐡, 𝐓𝐨 𝐚 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐞 @firesreborn]

Well.. as long as you aren’t completely broken now. And hey.. I commend you for being so.. adamant on this.

( her smile was there but there was a lot of impact to the man’s words. )

But.. you aren’t alone anymore. And that’s something I can respect.

[ً @daigoelite]

It’s more common than you’d think . When I came back , I too felt entirely alone , entirely worthless .

Finding this team put so much of me back together . I’m still finding the pieces , but it’s a start .

We can’t begin to heal without people who’ve been hurt the same .

[𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐡, 𝐓𝐨 𝐚 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐞 @firesreborn]

( a soft chuckle. )

Well.. when you put it that way.. I guess it doesn’t sound so bad.

I’m.. grateful to have someone who understands. Really. That.. means more to me than you realise..

( she smiled softly but genuinely to the other. )

[ً @daigoelite]

I suppose that’s . . Somewhat comforting . My kind of downfall must be . . uniquely extreme .

But enough sulking . We still have plenty to fight for . Nothing changes by sitting in the past .

" our pasts are not the same , in the literal meaning . the choices we made are far from being related .. but i too understand what it feels to have messed up before. the struggle that comes after , we both share same experiences. "

ㅤㅤ

[ً @daigoelite]

+

The stains in my blood , left by that demonic beast that claimed me . Forever part of me , even dormant .

I’m not whole .
How could I be ?

Someone like me could only ever be ``put back together`` , but even that implies brokenness .

It’s a one way ticket .

[ً @daigoelite]

And you , do you believe in redemption ? Truly ?

That a monster who killed without cause could ever be anything more ?

I think you underestimate the severity of my fall . . I , for one , do not know if I can ever be atoned .

. . Because I still feel it .

[ᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ❛ 𝐠͟o͟𝗱͟ ' 𝓈 𝖑a𝐦𝘣 @heirtohonor]

“ redemption is never an easy path , you should ask the paradigm about it. some * people close their minds to only ever seeing you as who you once were , even if you bury him down.

but there are others , who will accept this new / you /. the elites , for example.

ㅤㅤ

[ً @daigoelite]

I understand . You get sucked into another realm and after you return everything feels different . People moved on .

If I’m being honest , that’s exactly what the Elites are . Old , broken toys that were forgotten— fighting for something again .

You should think it over .

[𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐡, 𝐓𝐨 𝐚 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐞 @firesreborn]

someone claimed Pandora’s box.

Well.. a few months in a Pandoran hellscape and then the years lost to reality until someone found me.
