If you're sure. [ but he doesn't argue because he gets what it's like to want to figure it all out yourself. at least hung is helping her. he doesn't protest to that. ]

...it's remembering everything that happened out there, right? The parts you can't just fix with healing.

[rizomata]

[ she leans back on the couch, sinking into it a little. ]

... Yeah.

I don't know if you heard from the others, but that whole place was like a waking nightmare.

[resumed]

I heard a little from Jolyne, but I didn't push too much. Felt a little hypocritical to demand answers about something like that when I don't always give my own. But I got the sense it was...pretty bad. And, uh, pretty gorey...

[rizomata]

That's about the sum of it. And at the same time, it doesn't feel like it scratches the surface...

Everything about that place... every sight, smell, and sound, was like a constant assault on the senses. And that wasn't even the worst part.

[resumed]

[ that sounds awful actually. like. he's used to the underworld that always smells musty and like decay but. yikes. ]

You couldn't escape no matter where you went then if it was from all sides. [ the feeling of being trapped. ] ...what was the worst part then?

[rizomata]

[ well. hm.

she goes quiet for a bit. she's not sure how to say it, or if she wants to say it. ]

... Everything looked like rotting meat. Like a screwed-up nightmare.

But it wasn't.

We're the ones who were screwed up.

[resumed]

...gross. [ softly but with feeling. but he pauses, thinking of what that actually means. ]

How were you screwed up if everything was decaying like that? What does that even mean...?
