Don't tell me you're not the same person! You're always my husband and I've been waiting... waiting!

She meant, I suppose, to torture me, just as I tortured her — yet, all this time, she was laboring under a misunderstanding. I never once meant to torture her, and neither did I wish to hurt her. Why would I do that, when I loved her so much?

you cannot save him. he will always die. you cannot save him. he will always die. you cannot save him. he will always die. you cannot save him. he will always die. you cannot save him. he will always die. ( but i have to try. )

If, as it says, everything, everything is a lie, then your sadness isn’t any different.

Phony, phony, phony / I'm just tangled up in lies

Then ... then. We ought to arrange a meeting, then, hmmm ~ ?

You're more broken than anyone you've tried to save!

Oh god, come quickly! The execution of all things! Let's start with the bears and the air, and mountains, rivers and streams... Then we'll murder what matters to you, and move on to your neighbors and kids, crush all hopes of happiness with disease. 'Cause of what you did.

Bravo, my friend. Hear how the crowd adores you! They've not seen such a show in a long time. Look here! How our child has grown, nourished and strengthened by the heat of our passionate dance!

Tie me up, untie me! All this wishing I was dead is getting old! It's gettin' old — it goes on — but it's old!

OOC : // I imagine during her rare moments of lucidity Mike looks at regular Battat and just feels like. Sadness. Guilt. Intense bubbling envy. That could've been her making all those connections. Receiving all of that love and affection. But it isn't. She pushed virtually everyone away

Hmhm. Does that ... excite you, Tenna? ✨

Can't a Pippins enjoy A little bit of ☀️ JOY 🔔 Every now and then? : )

My, my. What an eager reaction.

Ah ... Ahaha. Trust me, Tenna, Mike could do so plenty with these strings, If you willed it.

OOC : // Elaborating on this: Her head is split in half because of mental stress. I think it started as a hairline crack that progressively got worse and worse as the Shadow Crystal plunged her further into insanity until it just. Broke and fell apart entirely

@motormouthmike.off.camera . . . You know what. Also smash

(look at her)

OOC : // Blinks wetly. If I posted kind of a dark open here would anyone bite

Mike still sings to Tenna's cupboard every night ... he's simply so, so busy. He never has the chance to. Isn't it wonderful, then, that he has someone like Mike around to help him? : )

People only have substance within the memories of other people. And that's why there were all kinds of mes. There weren't a lot of mes per se, I was just inside all sorts of people, that's all.

At some point, you grew attached to my little cast. You related to their flaws, their plights... you started wishing for their happiness. But you aren't going to find that in MY theater! My lovingly crafted labyrinth of suffering!

(I THINK I NEED A LOBOTOMY!) Someday, I'll feel no pain! Someday, I won't have a brain! Cycle of blood, it's all the same! And then I forget everything I want to be — BLAAARGH!

Everything's blue, everything's blue in this world — the deepest shade of mushroom blue, all fuzzy, spilling out of my head.

I shot her in the back! I shot her in the back. And I – we all did – and then I – left her body there. I left her there. All alone and cold. I left her and I – and – she forgave me, they forgive us, it’s –

How long can you change and get away with it before you turn into someone else, before it's some kind of murder?

and it turns out he was a missing person who nobody missed at all.

even you were horrified by what she turned into.

BATTAT I LOVE YOU. I CONTROL YOU

OOC : // I like the headcanon that she (and normal Battat too) is a good singer. In my mind her singing voice would sound kinda like Yi Xi

KRIS... I WON'T FORCE YOU. I CAN'T. I CAN'T FORCE YOU. BUT JUST LOOK, KRIS. LOOK AT THE [Power of NEO] AND ASK YOURSELF... WELL, DON'T YOU? DON'T YOU WANNA BE A [Big Shot]!?

Imagine you are in a field of daisies. What are you doing in a field of daisies? Get up!
