Imaginary Melodies

Their eyes mismatched and body covered in numerous chips and cracks.

"..."

*Usuall- no, typically, in Alinah's old fashion— she'd be taut and always would carry a piercing, watchful gaze towards people and/or creatures anew to the LCB team.*

*This time however, her face contorts into a small sight of confusion and odd curiosity, wavering slightly as she leans down to the creature to have a better look at its appearance.*

"..Are you alright?"

*She asks. Its nothing atypical but- empathetic, as to say, since she's in the City, after all.. so quite uncommon. But it does speak, confirming one of Alinah's ruminating thoughts about it*

"Do.. you have a name..?"

It was in what looked to essentially be a straight jacket. Her pants had straps tight enough that it must be cutting off blood circulation. Her arms were almost in a dislocated pose.

*She blurts, the moment distress is heard from the small creature, standing straighter than ever- as she grips her spear tightly, eyes scanning their unknowable surroundings, as if everything to her senses had been heightened.*

"..If you must... whoever you maybe.. tell me who are 'they'."

The being grew startled and pushed her with the beings body, aiding her to dodge a harsh blow from a baseball bat. They were small, face rotted with tears, staring with one eye at the group from that side of the area.

They seemed to be... cultist. Carrying childish weapons and a few strong capture nets. "Darling Best Friend! Come home! Your missed! Come! Let us prepare you for-"

"Lleave me alooone..."

"Oh come now, best friend! Don't you miss your friends?"

Who...?

Cupioromantic Carmen is real and coming to distort you

Why?

Bunny: I'm taking care of an emotionally constipated adult. I'm good.

Serenade: *starts crying and curling up*

Klick: Is Sarah allowed to come?

Fairy: can I bring Lily?

Mary: *hides behind brownie* Okay....

Cupioromantic Carmen is real and coming to distort you

Why?

It's ugly, it's an unpleasant color and its been used for many more years than it should've lasted for. Theres a huge tear on it that I don't know how to fix, and the stuffing keeps pouring out. It's small, and awkward, and my mother has pestered me about throwing it away countless times, to the point she bought me a new one that I despite from the bottom of my heart.

But this one is my pillow. It's the only pillow I like. I love my pillow, so so deeply. Its texture is nice to the touch, and it's not too hard or too soft. I'm not bothered by having to shove the stuffing back inside every night and every day, sometimes multiple times. I don't mind being yelled at about it. I just care about how nice of a pillow it is, and how much I don't want it to be thrown away. It's special to me, even if out there I could probably find an identical or even better replacement to it.

Because I love it, because no other pillow feels like this one, and only with this one I feel comfortable and pleasant.

She lets her fingers twitch slightly, sounding excited. She wants to play music for someone. or in the memory of someone.

Oh I'm sure that would be lovely! Follow me to the stage, I'm sure my children would love to have a fellow performer.

//I lead Holy to the stage, where the singing machine and Silent Orchestra are playing, I tell them something that she can't hear due to the volume of the music//

Alright Holy! Here is a Violin, they will follow your lead.

She begins to play a song. soft at first, rising into a soulful joyous song, it was felt deep.

the twins giggle and begin to dance with each other in time to Holy's song.

They are fast and elegant, like a music box with dancers. the twins sing, the taller dark one in a lower note, the short one of blue and green the higher note.

the three continue their music together.

Carmen's friends perk up immediently and skurry to the injured one.

Shorter one says, "Siisssster!!!!" The taller one hickuped a sob. "Sister..." They both begin to patch the tied up one. the poor dear was spilling red tears.

Oh my goodness! You have-

Now's not the time to question. Poor thing!

//the realm takes effect, the injuries are paused from worsening as I get a can of wellcheers//

Ahh shoot no mouth- ah I'll just-

The two friends without names help the other Imaginary out of the straps slowly, rubbing their dull mildew stricken limbs. They relax as the ceramic forms white cracks on earth green and love blue ceramics. White as bone.

The two not injured imaginaries tick at the injured one who shakes and ticks back. Her eyes well up with tears as she wiggles her fingers with a breathy giggle. "I... I am... called... Holy by... them..."

[Tw detailing of Holy's healing process.]

//after they are done with the process I close the rift holy came in//

Looks like they tried to follow you. Don't worry Holy you're safe here.

The short one mumbled and walked over to Carmen, whispering into her ear(sent via direct message).

//gently reaches out and pulls up Holy, taking her to a room that appeared where a wall once was, it contained oil, gears, leather, and some hard ceramic//

She began by removing the bigger unsealed ceramic and replacing them with various other things. She still looked broken there.

She pulled a more than tarnished copper needle and quickly and easily sewed the new pieces on. "Not alive. Not dead. Have to latch self up like a cloth doll... I am okay. You are wonderful, thank you... thank... thannnk you..."

It's truly nothing Holy.

She sighed, "We live to take care for those lessss fortunate. We love to maaake kids and diissssabled people happy."

Holy patted Carmen, "Annd I cannnn be replaaaced. It's okay."

But Wow that's a great thing you do, taking care of people! I never knew such a good force existed in the city.
