HAWKS PALACE

[doublefried]

The process of entering the palace is... smooth. Painless.


You are falling, but it's not scary at the speed you're going. You drop through the pre-dawn sky like a feather, light and easy on a breeze, descending towards a bright and multicolored island in a sea of dark trees.

When you land, you are somewhere new.

"Fix it up? It might be possible..."

Baby Hawks perks up.

Can we try?

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"Right now?"

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

No time like the present.

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"Well, most changes take time..."

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

Is it something you'll work on then?

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"It's sort of emotionally complex. I owe this little guy one though, so..."

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

It can even be a completely different building. One from scratch.

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"A little cottage for a little bird boy?"

The baby mumbles that he also wants snacks.

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

And for you.

[Surveying the snacks before handing over the popcorn]

And a spot for snacks.

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"Oh, this is his place, I don't live here normally. But I can... maybe... positive think up a better house with snacks for him?"

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

I know. You normally live in the theme park, right? That place is also awful.

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"You didn't like it?"

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

Do you?

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"Well, it's not really there for me to like or not like..."

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

You should have some place you like here.

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"Does that count towards my 50% more selfish goal?"

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

...that is not even being selfish though, that is a basic human comfort you should allow yourself, but I will allow it to count in the name of progress.

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"It's a very hard thing to do and I deserve credit for it if I do it, okay."

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

I will give you so much credit then. All of it.

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"Because this whole place is like. My soul or brain or something? So just deciding to change things is a little..."

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

You can have whatever you want, just make it happen. Do we have a deal?

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"I wasn't waffling, I wasn't waffling! I was just explaining what goes into it!"

Re: EXIT

[tothosewhobait]

I have reason to strongly suspect you were waffling. And that wasn't a yes.

Re: EXIT

[doublefried]

"Okay, okay, yes, I will do my best to rearrange my mind palace so that my baby self has a waterproof house with snacks and I won't waffle about it."
