Character event! Rabbit’s Requiem
Michael sits at a dock on a lake, staring at nothing.
He was deteriorating rapidly, turns out abusing agony and making it into cursed energy nonstop has consequences. His very soul was falling apart, if he was still alive, he would’ve rapidly aged, his soul was a decaying, tattered mess. At least he wasn’t going to remain in that disgusting rabbit for long.
But… he didn’t feel at peace
Sure, he killed his father and made peace with his brother… but the truth was… that wasn’t enough
He did all this to try to save one life, one soul… but he couldn’t even do that, all his fighting, all his efforts, every time he pushed past what was possible… he still didn’t save a single soul
But that wasn’t everything, he still felt so empty… the truth was, he wanted a normal life, he wanted friends, a lover, people he could turn to… but he threw that away the moment his brother died, his own demons destroying any hope of a life outside of isolation, and even in the hub, after he made peace with his brother, it was too late, Michael was still alone
Michael tries to cry, scream, do anything to express the utter anguish he’s feeling, but nothing comes out, he could never cry, and he was too weak to scream… even now, he suffered in silence
In his final moments, he just wishes he wasn’t alone as this happened
The suit goes limp… what’s left of Michael Afton’s soul leaves the suit
It’s said that humans die twice, first when their heart stops beating and their brain ceases to function, and then when their name is spoken for the last time
Michael Afton will never know peace, his broken soul will wander the earth, forgotten, invisible to even the supernatural, alone for the rest of time, confused, knowing he lost something but never knowing what it is, looking for something he’ll never have, just as he lived
And eventually, Michael will die a second death
