soulping | Canis's heart

The moment you step through the mirror door, you seem to - slip, as if the floor were made of wax, but when you fall there is no floor to catch you; only darkness.

You fall for some time. Eventually, it feels as if you're not falling at all - but rather, floating . . . and some time after that, it almost feels as if you have no body at all. The light from which the entrance of Canis's heart is disappears quickly, and you're left with nothing - not even your own screams, if you have any; nothing seems to leave your throat, and there's no sound at all, besides. Even the rushing of wind is gone, and your own pulse seems to fade away. . .

. . . what penetrates your consciousness next is the soft sound of music. Someway or another, you find yourself on a white platform; you're dressed in plain clothes of your team color, all items gone from your person. In front of you, four stones float; all perfectly square and identical to each other. Each have images - a sword, a staff, a bow and arrow, and a sparkling circle . . . you understand what you must do.

Your armor will take 10 minutes to upgrade.

[ SO I GUESS WE'LL JUST SIT HERE AND WAIT THEN. ]

Meanwhile, someone seems to be starting to fall asleep in your arms. . .

[ shakes not!canis. ] Hey. Wake up.

". . . Mmm. . . "

That's rude, he's only going to sleep in your arms and not moving anything at all, including any indication that he is even breathing?

[ oh that. doesn't look good. shit. UHM. leaning down, to press his forehead against devotion's. does he have a fever. is uh. shit. what do. ]

You're fine, aren't ya? 's fine, I said I was gonna save you, didn't I? You're not allowed ta--go to sleep like this, stop it.

Naw man, he doesn't feel like he has a fever at all! In fact, he feels really really cold. That's totally healthy, right.

Just. . . makes a quiet noise, not very responsive.

[ fffuck. ]

Hey! I said--stop that!

Didn't I say I love you?!

Stirs a little, eyes fluttering a little more open, but . . . it's not helping, much.

Canis, Canis--hey. Don't do that, okay? Don't--leave me alone here. I need you.

[ his voice--gets a lot more desperate as he keeps speaking. he already fucked him up. he already broke an entire space in his heart he doesn't-want to lose this part of canis he wants him he wants him to stay alive and stay with him and-- ]

I need you, a'right? Even if you're jus' some stupid knight with stupid complexes I need you to stay with me an'--we're a team, aren't we?

Tilts his head a little, pressing against Mira's chest. . .
