| “You’re trying to impress someone, aren’t you? Road asks, and he’s ten, but it’s not so much impress as it is that he wants—needs—to be useful or else he might get thrown away. Dewey wouldn’t want a useless person, after all. And without Dewey, Dominic is nothing. |
| |||
He’s alone. It repeats itself over and over in his head alone alone alone but now he has Anemone and the world so it’s okay. | | ||||
| |
| |||
| Fingers flying across the keyboard, his eyes glued to the screen, he’s twenty and he reads word after word: noise Anemone the colonel and he’s realized that the colonel can’t be trusted anymore. |
| |||
And there, that woman’s told him—the truth about everything. But did he really want to know? He falls to his knees because because sometimes there are people you shouldn’t believe in. | Because you don’t hack into the records of people you trust. | ||||
“And that's why I'll be hoping that you will no longer trust anyone. It's for the best, I assure you,” Vincent tells him, and for a moment Dominic believes him. —Then he promptly realizes why that’s the most idiotic thing he’s heard yet. | |||||
“And so, idiot or not, I’m backing you!” he shouts at Renton, while the other boy simply stares at him. But he hasn’t gone crazy—he’s just opened his eyes. For real this time. So don’t let this become a mistake. | He’s in Somarium now, and he’s alone. He won’t ever see his world again. Anemone won’t be a part of his life. alone alone alone Is it still okay? | ||||
“You're my friend and I'd like to do something nice for you and see you smile...” Estelle says. | |||||
“So if there is anything that you would like to talk about, I'll listen anytime.” Minato. | |||||
| |||||
“You want me to kick anyone else's ass instead?” “Wha—?” Ken laughs awkwardly. “Well. Omi's not the only person here I wanna see stay safe, you know.” | |||||
By the way, is there anything you wanted for your birthday? — Atsuro. | |||||
| |||||
And then Estelle’s running towards him, before she wraps her arms around his neck and nobody touches him like that but he smiles and hugs her back. | |||||
Minato holds out a can of soda to him even though Dominic wonders what others even see in him. he let Anemone die Still, he takes it. | |||||
And Ken’s less than stellar grammar aside— Youre not alone. not alone anymore Dominic smiles. Thank you. —To everyone. | |||||
[Well, that's probably the best dream Dominic, who's reverted back to his normal age by now, has had in a long while. However, he doesn't dwell on it long before picking up his Dreamberry and placing a filter on it. As much as he'd like to shove this dream in Vincent's face, he'd rather the man not know about every one of his friends—even if the filter won't take care of all of his acquaintances.
Still, once he's done, Dominic smiles softly, stroking Gulliver softly.]
HNNNGH I CAN'T EVEN TROLL THIS DREAM, IT'S JUST-- ;;
For it would have infuriated Vincent.
But as it is...He smiles. And perhaps, just perhaps, it isn't quite so close to a smirk as he would like it to seem.]
My, Mister Dominic, perhaps you were telling the truth.
FFFFFF <3

He remembers their conversation well, but... he's still not quite sure where Break's getting this from.]
... I don't think I'm on the same page as you, Break.
no subject
How boring things would be if we were all to be reading the same book.
[No, he's not going to explain himself.]
no subject
Well, I guess I can't disagree with that. I think I'd be a bit horrified if I were always on the same wavelength as you, anyway.
no subject
Why, Mister Dominic, I could be hurt!
no subject
I'd like to think I know you a bit better than that.
no subject
Ah, I would so hate to think I have become predictable, Mister Dominic. That would be quite the dangerous thing to become.
Though you are entirely correct as to one thing.

Mister Vincent is rarely right.
no subject
[Even though trusting Break is, well. A bad idea.]
Though I'm a little surprised too.
no subject
Are you? I cannot imagine why.

However, at times 'trust' and 'making use of others' often overlap in peculiar ways.
You should not trust blindly, you see, but Mister Vincent is still often wrong.
no subject
[He knows all about having trust broken, after all. As he says that, his expression is serious, before he smiles lightly again.]
Though I hope you don't take offense to the fact that I don't plan on viewing others as pawns anytime soon.
no subject
It matters little to me what you choose to do with your life, Mister Dominic!
[...perhaps?]
no subject
[A pause, as something occurs to him.]
Ah, that reminds me...
no subject
[And he pauses, honestly curious.]
Oh? What is it?
no subject
[He smiles.]
Thank you.

...Do take care to not pick up any strange cards in the future, Mister Dominic.

Very well then. Do inform me if there are any...discrepancies you think I should be aware of.
