2 years.

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" even if.. you're not exactly him.. "

" ..i care about you, so don't do anything stupid. "

[ Geo then continued on, and soon enough.. they were out of view. ]

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

[ Geo walked closer to "Deivy", patting his shoulder ]

" ..you're always free to come back, i'm not going anywhere. "

[ Geo started heading back to the garden.. but then abruptly stopped in their tracks. ]

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

"Wait-"

[ He turned to them, panicked, before sighing as he hunches in on himself. ]

"..Yeah, you're right. I can't talk with you forever... I've already made him search for me long enough."

[ He looks away. ]

"You didn't waste my time, though. This was uh.. nice."

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" you said you were looking for someone, right? "

" i think you should— start searching for them again, i'm only wasting your time. "

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

[ He sighs heavily, reluctantly stopping pulling at his antlers. He wants to rip them off so bad, het rid of any and all resemblance he has to *It* as a big middle finger but- ]

[ He can't. Geo wouldn't be happy if he did. ]

"Figures.."

[ He doesn't know what else to say. ]

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

[ geo shrugs ]

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

"Oh... Yeah. It sucks. Like.."

[ He groans, clutching his head in frustration. ]

"What's even so... special about us that it constantly just takes us away?! We were just some Kids! Is it just cause we're easy targets? Is that why???"

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" the latter. "

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

"..Thanks."

[ He shrugs. ]

"Yeah but, you'll... get used to it eventually. Kind of have to, unless you want to feel like you.. whatever- ignore that."

"..What couldn't have been avoided? A, me looking for you, or something..? Or just, either of us ending up in the Remains?"

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" i see.. i hope you'll find eachother soon. "

[ . . . ]

" kind of.. scary to see other versions of yourself and those close to you. "

[ their expression goes blank ]

" guess this couldn't have been avoided after all. "

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

"It's... another me. For whatever reason, he, went into the Remains to try and find me. So... I'm trying to find him."

[ He shrugs. ]

"It's...been a while, though."

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" that's interesting. "

" who are you looking for? "

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

[ He freezes. ]

"...Yeah, but-"

[ His expression grows distant. thinks of the moment he found them. It was pleasant. Sickeningly so. He shakes his head to not think about it any further. ]

"I, found them already. A long time ago, in fact. I'm looking for someone else now."

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" looking for someone? "

" do you have your own version of ' me ' ? "

[ Geo was looking directly at " Deivy " ]

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

"Uhm."

[ He looks away. ]

"...Not, really."

[ He doesn't even belong anywhere, so of course not. ]

"I've just, been wandering. I'm trying to find someone, you see. And... yeah."

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" ..do you have somewhere to be after this? "

" curious, is all. "

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

"Oh."

[ He immediately stopped snickering as Geo's face fell. ]

"I'm... uh, glad. You did. Again, you really needed it."

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" ..yeah. "

[ their expression fell blank as they averted their gaze. ]

" i got comfortable, i suppose. "

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

"I'm not a dog!!! And I DON'T have attachment issues!! Stop slandering my good name Geo!"

[ Despite his words, he's snickering now too. Though, he stops after their next words. ]

"...Well, that's good to know at least. You seemed like such a downer back there, y'know?"

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" me? imagining things? ..as if you're not the one clinging at my leg like a dog with attachment issues.. pfftt.. "

[ Geo lets him go ]

" still no clue why you're even here at all or what you are.. but! it sure did brighten up my day a bit. "

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

[ He quickly got defensive. And embarrassed. ]

"I... I don't know!! It just- Seems like something it'd do?? Stop snickering!!"

[ Maybe the other had a point... ]

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

[ they just burst into laughter at this rate, walking close to " Deivy " to give him a noogie. ]

" jeez.. you're such a worry wart! making hypothetical that don't make sense.. bahaha..! are you just saying this to make me stay..? it's working, i'll tell you that. "

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

[ He quickly got defensive. And embarrassed. ]

"I... I don't know!! It just- Seems like something it'd do?? Stop snickering!!"

[ Maybe the other had a point... ]

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" i wouldn't see a reason as to why it wouldn't.. kinda feels counter-productive..? "

[ They snickered ]

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

"... You sure? What if it doesn't let you?"

[ God knows he knew it wouldn't let him. He knew it was only a matter of time before it seperated them. ]

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" i'd find my way back, trust me. "

[ Geo awkwardly smiled as they tried to reassure him. ]

" i know every kind of path around here, all the twists and turns.. all the safe places.. i would come back. "

" so please, don't worry about me.. i'll be fine. "

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

"I mean- maybe. But.. I-"

[ He pauses, reconsidering his words. He'd sound way too pathetic if he said that. ]

"..I don't wanna take any chances, okay? Especially considering the Remains often changes it's structure. For all I know, you might never even Be able to come back!"

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

[ Geo stops in their tracks upon hearing his footsteps ]

" you don't need to follow me around everywhere. "

[ Geo turns to face him ]

" i would come back later anyway, i'm just clearing my head — don't worry about me. "

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

[ He pants trying to follow them, geez. He didn't realize how much his stamina degraded over the years... ]

[ Where was the other even going? ]

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

[ maybe they could've made a compromise, sacrificing themselves for the guarantee of https://t.co/5PoEiW51R8 safety. ]

[ but is it worth trusting it? who's the say it won't go back on the deal? ]

[ ... they weren't certain on what to do anymore. ]

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

[ they wandered, it didn't matter where they were heading. ]

[ was there really a way to opt out? they've known time and time again, defiance wouldn't get them anywhere. ]

[ they knew they were letting themselves into it's roots. ]

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

" .. nothing of your concern, trust me. "

[ . . . ]

" sorry, i'll need a moment. "

[ Geo leaves the area. ]

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

[ . . . ? ]

"... What're you thinking about?"

[geometry² @geometrysquar3d]

[ Geo went silent for a while. ]

[🪻 D EIV Y 🪻 @WILTED_HYACINTH]

"...I doubt its ever gonna say, honestly. It Wants to tire you out so that you'll just start listening to it without question, even it takes several years."

"If you want to find out, you'll need to investigate yourself."

[ He sighs. ]
