In my dream, I'm walking through a forest, and there's statues of people. Faces I don't recognize, but it feels like I should. Maybe I haven't met them yet. I'm dying... it hurts... but no matter who I reach out to for help, they crumble away at the slightest touch. [ a breath, something like a laugh, but not quite ] They don't even leave blood behind, to warm me from the snow.
[ The spider lilies aren't out yet, not until the end of the month during the equinox. The forest is still green. ]

( no spider lillies... what a shame, but komaeda will push himself up so that he can stand, and he's going to balance himself on the edge of the rooftop — his arms held out as he tries to think about it. )
...And they just turn to dust? ( he takes a step, eyes glancing down at his foot. ) That's quite the dilemma; there was a graveyard of stone, do you believe that's their resting place?
( why did they have animals, and rokkun stumbled upon lifeless, stone entities... he hums in thought, thinking, wobbling a bit, but he's taking another step forward... he's having fun, don't worry. )
But... we should stay in one place to fully understand the innerworkings of what happened, why did... it change so drastically...

It isn't so different... Even when the nightmares change every time I wake up and fall back asleep, what happens is always the same.
[ Being lost somewhere— in a void, in the woods, in the snow— and following a guide— the lights, the cairns, the river— leaving destruction in your wake— extinguished lights, a cemetery of metal and stone, shattering figures— and then falling and falling and failing and failing.
A singular memory, redressed in many different ways. It was only that last one that differed... because the group barged into the house ready to get shit done even thought the memory was supposed to have ended there. There's something to be said about teamwork and helping others and being able to affect the world around them when they stopped reacting to the things around them and made the decision to veer mission plans off course. ]

Are they the same?
( he questions, not looking in rokkun's direction, and komaeda takes a large step to walk over him as he tightropes — body shakes here and there, but he's doing okay. the chance to fall off the edge, his life on a thin line, he's here with someone who could see his demise, remember it, tell others of his story, of his own failures. )
Do you wake up, Rokkun? After you collide with the earth... do you lay there and accept it?
( he takes a few steps forward, stopping at the edge. )
In your dreams... is there ever anyone to help you? I took your hand... and I let it go, I think the others motivated you, I thought a lot... about those people with you.
( all about moving forward, and not letting what happens around them affect them... to make changes by moving forward, not taking detours when the path is right before them? )
