October Event Log (Purgatory. Closed to the Dead)

[kaisoumods]

Closed Log: Purgatory

Congrats on your untimely death! After you die, you will awaken in a very drab waiting room. The only other people in the waiting area seems to be the others who also died back on the Event Horizon. On the wall, there is a sign that reads: Welcome to Purgatory! Please take a number and wait while your soul is processed for its next destination. Thank you. Sure enough, under the sign there is one of those old number ticket machines.

From there, there is nothing to do but... wait! There are plenty of old chairs to sit in (some are even comfortable), along with stacks of magazines that are all discontinued. If you get hungry, there is a cabinet and fridge that is full of various discontinued snacks and drinks. Fancy yourself a New Coke or Pepsi Blue?

Finally, there is an old fashioned tv and antennae. You can use this either to watch some cancelled shows or watch a feed of what's going on back on the Event Horizon. You'll have to deal with adjusting the antenna regularly and bad reception though.

That's about it for purgatory though! Enjoy your stay.

[And that’s what Wei Wuxian misunderstands.]

[It is her idol persona, but it isn’t a mask she puts on to hide from others. Her idol persona is a mask she puts on to help others. And what better use is there of that than now?]

It’s not that it’s easy, it’s that it’s the right thing to do.

[She smiles at him again.]

Yes. I’d like to be friends, Wei Wuxian.

[To that he'd ask: why help the dead?

But then he'd be a hypocrite. Not like he hasn't been one before. God knows he wanted to help the living as much as the dead in any of his lives. Even when he controlled the dead, he treated them with more respect than they ever received while alive.

If only he'd see that part of himself, then he'd think something other than Robin shouldn't be around a person like Wei Wuxian.

When faced with a smile like that, though... what else was he supposed to do.]

If that's really what Miss Robin wants... [Who is he to say anything against her word? He tried, really tried to smile. There's something there, a softness in his eyes, a struggling upturn of the ends of his lips, it was just hard to go the full way.]
