5th Speculation: Information sought

So, from what I understand, Lavi and Sasuke are likely the best sources, but if anyone has any info, that would be helpful. I know there are places here rumored to be haunted, and then thare are places that are haunted. Does anyone know why? It's most likely related to why this place is the way it is anyways, but...I was wondering about more specific information.

See if there's anything that might be helpful in figuring out what happened.

[Becca frowns, reaching out to her slowly.]

Hey... At... At least you have friends to help you?

....sometimes I'm not sure if that's better, or worse. I...honestly can't decide, if I regret ever getting close to them...or letting them close to me--because they'll suffer, or if I'd give up what good memories I've had with them, and spare them that.

[Yeah, not a happy thing choice there...either way.]

My overall point though, aside from that you're not alone in having a non-normal ability, was that a lot of times it also depends on one's perspective. See the world from someone else's eyes and view.

Yeah... I... I understand that feeling. I try not to make friends at home because I know I'll die soon. But I get so lonely...

[sigh]

Anybody who thinks powers are awesome is just dumb, though.

Believe me, I know the 'lonely' feeling too...it's only been the past year, that I've had those friends.

And no, someone thinking that isn't dumb...it means they've not thought it out. They haven't thought about the downsides, only the upsides. Again, they need to put themselves in someone else's shoes.

Think about it, if you did NOT have precognition...wouldn't you think it sounds neat? To be able to predict the future, and see what's coming?

I...can't even imagine not knowing how bad it sucks. It's like...it's one of those things. Like the sun rising.

Well, maybe since it's blocked here...you could try.

[Very very VERY mild suggestion she look outside her own shell there.]

In any case...you...did seem like you might want someone who understood. I won't push anymore for now.

I guess...if I was old enough to buy lotto tickets, that might be kind of cool...

It's a start.

I've seen so many dead bodies they're not even scary any more, though. I hate it.

You're allowed to hate it, no one said you had to like it.

It sucks so much. But I don't know how to live without it, either.

Well, maybe it's time to start imagining how you would, and trying. This isn't the best place, given...but it's a start.

It's hard. I never thought I'd ever be without my powers.

I get that...doesn't mean, now that you have that chance, you can't take advantage of it.

I don't really know how. I mean... I'm a precognitive. I don't think about things, I just check what's happening and deal with it.

How long have you been here?

Man, I don't even remember.

And haven't you lived here all that time, without your precognition? I'd say that shows you can live without it, and can learn how to.

Yeah, I guess. But I'm not doing anything important here, either.

Yes you are. You're surviving, in a place that it is difficult to do so in. You're living in a cursed city, where the weather is against you, and the people with the majority of the resources. Just surviving and living here, is important, in that way.

...I guess so. I'm just damn hard to kill. If my mum can't get rid of me, then Libitina's gonna have to break out her god powers if she wants to fuck with me.

Trust me, being hard to kill isn't always a bad thing.

[Ok, now there's an actual visible smile.]

And you are not alone, there are people here to help. You're surviving in a very difficult situation, and that is important, and amazing.

[Becca thinks on that for a moment, then moves to try to get a hug from her.]

[Raven is very much NOT a touchy-feely person...but she won't pull away. Perks of being an Empath, she can tell enough that Rebecca needs it. So...it's gonna be awkward, and clear that Raven isn't isn't used to physical contact...but she'll give that hug.]

...it'll be alright.

[Becca snuggles for a few moments, then pulls away. She's feeling all sorts of emotions now, and figures slinking off to her room to sort them out is the best plan.]

I'll...see you around, yeah?
