WHERE THE FUCK IS MARIO

Treo looked uncomfortable. "Maybe its like when a mirror meets a mirror. I'm probably just seeing a mirror image of what I think I am." His laugh prompted a headtilt and a small shudder. "Maybe. I wouldn't want to be nothing.." Treo nodded. "All the time, they would never shut up. Always talking and pulling me in different directions... they're still there but they're... quiet." He looked over to Sora. "Never? Interesting. Maybe it has something to do with my ascension." He shrugged. "At least you can sort of understand." |

Sora laughed. "Sorry, that was rude of me. Though I have to say, I don't see myself as a mirror." Maybe at one time he did. But even then it wasn't the same as Treo. He always just payed attention to others. He wanted to see into their hearts, not his own. But there was nothing to see there in the first place except for a bitter, beaten up child. It wasn't about controlling as much as it was twisting. For a while it was just about taking advantage of everything.Then things went wrong and he got angry. Became cruel. And now he didn't really know where he was. He continued, focusing back on Treo. "Ascension? Probably. That generally tends to throw a wrench in things doesn't it?" His head rested on his arms. "I can't imagine them talking all the time. How'd you put up with it? I don't want anyone else in my head." Sora turned to Treo. "You don't feel anything with Kumori or Manabu? In your crazy detective squad?" |

He shook his head. "That's okay. Maybe its because I can't think of how to act around you. You can also switch how you feel and think without even giving it a thought, so perhaps I don't even bother?" His tone was confused. He nodded in agreement. "I believe that was where they stopped. Not sure why." He smirked. "You get used to it after a while." The Teen looked down at the people and sighed. They all seemed to happy. "I feel...something. Like I want to help them, but I don't feel like I have to help them, or that they are important. No more important than the shinier rock at the beach." He shrugged. "Maybe I should have stayed ignorant but happy. Asking myself that question has done nothing but confuse me." |

"Nowadays all I do is just put on a happy face." Sora said with a wry smile. "Act like an angsty fuck and I think you'll have it down." "I think most of us tend to regret it when we think about things too much." He began, pulling himself off the ledge. "Over complication opens up more cracks in the ground for you to slip into. If you keep it up you're going to trip eventually and you're going to fall into a big fucking black hole when what you should have been doing the whole time was just going forward." He sighed. "And I'm aware of the hypocrisy." Sora shot Treo another smile. "I think for you though, it's not impossible. Being happy I mean. You should talk to your friends. They'll want to help you." His eyes showed a certain sadness. "Because that's what friends do I guess. I don't think I can help you." |

Treo placed a hand to his chin. "Act like myself then?" He gave a smile in reply. "The more we think we more we look into the abyss and eventually someday, the abyss will stare back." He shrugged. "Of course, if we don't ask ourselves these questions, we don't grow. I would still think that messing with people's lives was a good thing. That pulling their strings gave me a purpose." He shook his head. "We all verge that way sometimes." He looked out over the roof. "You think so? I haven't felt actual happiness in years. But then again, all an emotion consists of is a chemical telling your brain to feel something. Maybe I'll talk to Kumori about it. The problem is Sora-san." He turned to face the boy. "I can't act this way around anyone but yourself. So for me to see my true self, I have to talk to you. If I spoke to my friends, I would just adopt the persona I use and the question would never enter my mind." He saw the sadness. "You helped me already and I got to apologise. I thought I knew more than I did. You're a strong person Sora-san. I know you'll get through this." |

Sora's face twisted into one of anger for the first time that evening. "A good thing huh? Maybe you were a little more fucking tame than me then, because I haven't seen one goddamn good thing come out of anything I've done. If I could undo everything I've done, I'd do it in a heartbeat if it would just get rid of all the pain I've caused people. I'd kill myself if it would bring them back." He stared at Treo. "I let the abyss swallow me up. And now I can't get back out." His eyes fled from the boy in front of him and focused intently on the floor. "... Sorry." Sora slowly managed to pull a smirk back over his face after his outburst. "Chemicals? What an unromantic view Treo. If you're nothing but a pile of compounds why don't you just take some pills to make yourself feel better?" He pointed at his chest and shook his head. "People are far more complex than that." It was clear that Sora was still angry, despite his attempts to hide it. "Look at you Treo. Look at how lonely you are..." He paused. "... Kumori will help you. He's smarter than me. And nicer. And he's your friend. "I'm glad you think this helped but I'm not strong. Think what you will though. That's your opinion I guess." |

Treo's neutral expression contrasted from his anger. "I meant I maybe would have thought. I know what I did was wrong. I... was lucky and managed to fix my mistakes before I managed to break something important. Sora-san. The fact you would want to fix it shows change." His tone was flat. His face twisted uncomfortably. Then he said nothing as Sora looked down at the floor. He raised an eyebrow as he mentioned pills. "I used to take them when I was a kid. kept me normal kept the mirrors back. I hate pills." He nodded. "You can try and break it down, but it never works out." He was angry, but Treo didn't know what to do. "I've always been lonely. I just forgot about it." He paused and nodded. "I'll talk to Kumori-san. But don't give up Sora-san. You've always been stronger than me. I still need people. A mirror always has to reflect something after all." |

"Well aren't you lucky then." Sora shot back, looking back over the school roof. Talking with Treo was quickly angering him. It gave him a headache. "You piss me off." Sora finally said flatly. "And pills can't cure loneliness." He didn't look at the other boy as he spoke to him. "I'm not stronger than you. I need people too. All I can do is break them. I can't put them back together again. I've tried. My record's too black for that. Yours isn't though right? Start building some bridges." Sora had a lulling smile on his face. "I'd break you too." "Take a long hard look at your mirror Treo. Sometimes we overlook the smaller things." |

He shook his head. "No. Not lucky. Just too weak. Too weak to actually bring harm to other people." He sighed. "I have a tendancy of doing that. Pills don't do anything other than make other people think you're normal and okay. He's had his pills, its okay he's fine. All lies." He tilted his head. "Putting people together is beyond me. I can't hurt them either though. All I can do is copy them. Build bridges?" He looked out over the park. "I don't know if I can. They're always going to be missing a step." His expression was featureless. "You can't break what you can't touch." He nodded, then closed his eyes. "The answer is right in front of you. You're still too blind to see it. He can see the cracks in your mirror." He placed his hand to his head, but didn't show a sign of pain. "The little things. The minute cracks in the mirror." He nodded slowly. "I see." |

Sora clenched his fists. To weak to harm people? It was the opposite. One had to hold back to keep their cruelty in check. Or Sora did at least. "That's a lie." He smiled. "People are naturally selfish. And selfishness leads to cruelty. Being really strong is something completely different. Are you selfish then too Treo? I am. I want things I can't get." He let out a laugh. "It's funny. I know some people that are quite good at putting people back together. But that's the one thing I never understood. Maybe you should go reflect them and get some insight." Sora brought his hands up and made a box around Treo's face with his finger, letting his head lean back a bit. "If it's just this I can break it." He placed his arms back on the roof's edge. "Something wrong Treo? Talking to someone other than me?" Sora chuckled. "I thought you said it was all quiet up there." |
