==>Kankri: Start again
You wake up where you’ve been waking up since every loop. Back in your hive, ready to hear what Meenah wanted to change this time. This last loop lasted all the way till you got Cronus to god tier. Then he killed you. Again. You can’t be that mad at him, you did the same to him and didn’t expect that to count as Just death.
He would remember and was bound to apologize. He always did.
Everyone who god tiered remembered, you always remembered. You were the first after Damara after all. It’s been the same routine every time. The same cluttered room, the same sounds of Beforus before the disaster that the game brings. The meteors are going to fall soon. Just as soon as you join this memo and watch your future self argue with your supposed team leader. At least in the last loop we decided to include the humans. It will be nice to talk to Jane again.
But you are tired. You didn’t want to do this anymore. You wanted to live your life, to grow up. You were so tired of being 6 sweeps.

That could’ve been better. You aren’t interested in pitch flirting with Meenah and never could be. She can be too cruel. But that’s off topic entirely. You have a game to start, and another memo to respond to in an hour. So you decided to do a walk through of your hive. It’s been a while since you’ve seen it. Walking down the stairs and immediately going to the candy bowl on the side table. If you were still the same troll you were before, you would be too proud to take from it and give into your guardian trolls' generosity but you aren’t. You grew. You regret never getting to know them. Never thanking them for not leaving you alone to a possibly worse guardian. You heard the horror stories online and you regret at least not giving them a hug.
The candy was sweet on your tongue. You’ve seen your guardian change this candy every time you told them you didn’t like a specific flavor or texture. A scowl came to your face thinking about it before you decided to move again. The hive felt foreign to you at this point. A dream you can’t escape even if you tried. At this point, you would rather have everyone die then relive this again. Maybe you would wake up in the bubbles, in your hive. You’d never leave until you could properly appreciate it.
==>Kankri: Walk outside. Watch the people.
You do that.
.
.
.
You go back inside. You can’t just leave. You have a game to finish.
==>Why are you mocking me?
==>Excuse me?
==>You won’t let me leave, will you?
==>Oh Kankri.
==>Kankri, Kankri, Kankri.
==>Kankri: Wake up.
