R1 DEADLAND

[lockdownmods]

[it’s strange, for the people who were already dead, the shift in scenery is sudden and complete. For those who have just arrived? It’s like you’re back where you left?

How strange.

But if you ever need her, you can always reach out to the guardian of this place.]

What? What is it, Rebecca?

[Maya can instantly tell something's wrong, pulling back just to catch Rebecca looking at a loss for words. That's okay, though! She has enough words for both of them.]

Look, don't worry about it! We'll find a way out of here, and whoever did this is going to get a big piece of my mind!

cw: suicide

[throwabookatit]

[ She winces, and shakes her head. ]

N-no, Maya, I--

I killed myself.

W-what? Rebecca...?

[Her? But that didn't make any sense. She seemed sad back when they had last "spoken" to one another, but hearing that almost seems to knock the air from Maya's chest.]

...I don't get it.

[throwabookatit]

[ Can't look at her. Can't...look at anything. ]

I- ...I was hijacked, Maya. And it... I'd already...hurt Han. I couldn't let anyone else suffer for my mistake.

[itwasfeyt]

[oh]

Hijacked...

[Maya's expression is, briefly, unreadable.]

You... you hurt Han? [And she couldn't stop it, no matter how hard she tried.] Rebecca... I'm so sorry, but it wasn't your fault, not if you were being controlled by something! That's... not how it works!

[throwabookatit]

[ She breathes out quick and sharp. If only it were that simple. ]

Maybe killed him. The others were there, w-watching, and the damn wall was- was doing something, keeping them in place. I- ...it was the only choice I could make, even if-

[ It would've been worse. To go on, like that. ]

...So, the point is, there- there's no one... No one to make regret anything.

[ Except the damn headmaster. ]
