fourth hunt ✗ ( voice )

[relatable]

[After trying to process things for days, she's finally willing to poke herself about again. She's been mostly alone in her rooms.]

If this place is all you have, what would you do? If home isn't an option any more, what things would you want to do here?

If nothing matters... [She's tense, sounding depressed.]

I guess I should make a list of things I've never done and do them. I just don't know where to start. Or do all the things I like to do. Me and my mom used to go hiking, but I guess I can't really do that here.

[She just sort of fades off before shutting the feed off.]

[Abigail, you sound upset and Julie can't have that.]

That's a good place to start. I'm doing that and hoping I get the opportunity for a lot of them.

Eat foods I shouldn't. That's one thing.

[Enjolras's expression is sympathetic here, as he appears on the screen. He was lucky that Combeferre had been here, and the others, but especially Combeferre, to guide him through the initial days and realization.]

I suppose that yes, you should consider all of those things that you have always wished to do and find a way to do them here. Even the most ridiculous may well be possible. If I have learned anything coming here, it is that nearly everything is open. Overwhelming, certainly, but it does give us opportunity.

I guess I never thought of life as being something that I can't do.

Oh I do not mean to suggest that it is, but that some things that we may have dreamed of before that certainly would not happen, for the constraints of our worlds, physics and things like that have changed. There are, for instance, dragons here, and magic, technologies of which people may have simply dreamed at home.

Those are the things I mean when I suggest looking for things you'd wish to do that you could not. Those rules you thought could not be broken. You might be surprised here.

[ Olivia is incapable of leaving sad people be. ]

Pick a thing, do it. What have you got to lose? ...How's this, give me a few things you want to do. C'mon, let's hear it.

[relatable]

I-- I don't know. I was always one of those good girls. I had good grades, never in trouble, didn't party. Just normal.

[dunhaming]

So you've never wanted to try a really weird food, or learn a new language, or sew your own clothing or something?

[fearlessherosheart]

Live, of course. I have carried on much as I would at home!

Though there is less opportunity for the glory and satisfaction of a good fight. And it is wearying to be among foreigners.

[relatable]

I don't really want to fight anyone. [Last time she did that, she killed someone.]

( ah. well that's a train of thought shockwave knows quite well. )

I intend to make the most of it. And I feel quite the opposite - everything matters more.

( it's a chance to... not set things right, that's impossible. but a chance to enjoy life before it's all torn away. )

What do you want to do?

[virginprice]

I've enjoyed the freedom I've had here. I've done many things I could never have done, and met so many friends... it does not fix all I've lost, but I don't expect it to.

voice;

[relatable]

What if you wanted to fix it though?

[redjay]

It's an urban landscape, you still can hike.

voice;

[relatable]

It's different than hiking up a mountain.

[ Home isn't an option. What has Kara done? ]

I'd start over, I guess. Make new friends, a new home, with whatever pieces of family I have left. Just... carry on. There's not much else you can do.

video;

[relatable]

I don't think I have the option of starting over.

[depicted]

Anything new. [Dorian manages to fail to sound enthused by the idea. Exhaustion runs a hard vein the philosophy, and it has long since started to get into the water; still, he persists in hope.] New sensations, new experiences—anything I haven't known before. If nothing truly matters, why not take the risk?

voice;

[relatable]

It won't be new forever though. [Which is the tiring part of living like that.]

[schwitzen]

Doing things you like sounds like a good place to start.

If it's all right...may I ask why you can't go home?

[relatable]

I can go home. [It's what happens there.]

voice;

[shotofsherry]

Try to move on, I suppose. But the past always comes back in some way so I don't know how well anyone can do that.

[ ... Not exactly helpful. ]

voice;

[relatable]

That's currently my problem.
