[voice]
[Lucas's voice is quiet, subdued. Indistinct. He isn't speaking to anyone in particular more than he is speaking to himself.]

It looks like she got what she wanted. ...He never would have let her go. Not like this. I wonder... who helped her. ...I wonder if she could have believed that we might have helped her. But, I guess... she suffered for long enough, didn't she...

[His voice firms up.]

We have to bury her. Miss Ciel, can you do what you did with Mr. Boris? Or since I don't think anyone would punish us for it this time... Burying is probably just fine, too. We can't just keep her there.

For everyone who doesn't know... Her name was Samantha Achewood. Not Jane. She was 24 years old and she was born in Fairfield, C-T. Her sisters were Susan and Lisa. Her favorite color was blue; she was a musician and she loved to play the violin. She attended Julliard. That was who she really was. And that's as much of a eulogy as I can give. She was herself for the last few hours... I should have found out more about her.

[still voice, as filtered as he can make it]
What she did say... At least, I think she confirmed it. She was surprised that I was able to guess.

Lucy is Zemekis. Everything in this world, he created. It's all fake. Just like we've thought. It was set up to give the survivors of the war somewhere to take refuge. That note about the simulation... It must be true.

((Responses will probably come a day late, but I will happily backtag when I get access to a computer again. Sorry, guys.))

[Today, Mayfield's Sunday newspaper deliveries have an extra section attached to them. After Finances and before the Funnies, someone appears to have slotted in Encouragement. Every newspaper on Lucas's route will have a card tucked into it, each bearing a similar message. "Don't Give Up" is penciled in on the front. The middle section reads, "The Sun Will Always Shine Again", accompanied by several variations of drawings, some with simply a picture of a radiant rising sun or a glowing heart, others of Grady and the Mayor in various states of being beat up, still more of peaceful scenes by the park or of a happy family. If Lucas knows you, you'll have gotten a much more personalized card, with a more detailed picture. They are all signed

Love,
A Friend

If anyone happens to be awake on Sunday morning, they'll probably see a glowing green ball of some sort flying (not literally) down the street, shooting out newspapers with (almost) perfect accuracy. Lucas is completely bathed by the glow of his PSI, and he reaches out to every house he passes with the power of Refresh. Those with wounds may find themselves healing faster, and almost everyone will find that they wake up in a better mood than they had anticipated.

Because the sun was shining, and it was never, ever going to stop. No matter what Mayfield did.

Sunday afternoon will find Lucas comatose in his bed. The amount of time he spent Saturday writing and drawing all of those probably wasn't worth thinking about. And the PSI he had expended exhausted quite another part of him altogether.]

[action 1]
( Lucas attempts to remember how to fight. )

[action 2]
( Lucas attempts to murder half the town. )

Lucas drops his bat and runs to his front yard. If you're anywhere nearby, he'll be running up to you with an expression of severe panic.]

. . . Are you alright?! Are you feeling OK?! You . . . Please say you didn't see the light!
((Lucas's PK Flash has odd effects. It's a burst of psychokinetic energy infused light that alters the brainwaves of those who see it. To be brief, PK Flash causes spontaneous crying to the point where your character is blinded by their own tears, paralysis, which is self-explanatory, feeling strange, which can be interpreted as violent hallucinations and delirium, or instant death. Or nothing, of course. Please don't choose the death option, aha.))

[voice, private to Rin Kagamine, Shiraasan, Tavros, and Nanashi]
I . . . I'm not sure what came over me. I guess it must have been the town playing tricks again, but I was feeling really strange last week. I'm really sorry. Especially to you, Tavros. We only just met and, um. You're not even a girl I don't think. I-I promise I don't actually like any of you, so please don't worry about that kind of thing.

I mean! Wait! I do like you, all of you, a lot! Just Not. Um. You know. Ah. Not like...... N-Not ............... I'm just going to apologize and hang up now.
