POMNI 🎈

. . .

[ Her voice breaks a little. She has the option here, the cruel one to spit his words right back at him. To see what it does to him. But she shoves it down. She won't. She doesn't want to.

Be honest. Tell him what you'd really do. ]

... i'd cry. and i'd make sure no one forgets about you.

OOC : //

[ Her voice raises slightly, but there's no anger in it. No bite. Just a firm reminder. ]

... i'm not doing anything, jax.

this is all you.

[ She tries not to sound too upset with the next part. ]

... and if you want me to leave. i will.

OOC : // You have Jax down on lock actually. You understand him perfectly

OOC : // *nervous dog side eye* Anyways,

+

"We were never friends."

... And most of all,

"You should've just shot me."

He said there was nothing more to him. And the more that time passes, the more obvious it becomes that that was a lie.

... What does she even say here? She's damned if she agrees, and damned if she doesn't. ]

... mh.

[ ... Her fingers nervously twitch at her sides. A lot of the things he's said to her recently echo in her head.

"Are you seriously gonna blame me for something that everybody else did too?"

"You didn't even know him."

"I'd move on and probably forget about you." ]

+

[ She doesn't budge. She just keeps loitering outside the door. She sighs. ]

... yeah. i heard you.

i heard all of it.

o-oh, it's ... it's not that big of a deal. nice to have kind of ... a normal interaction here, anyways. ahaha ... 💧

[ Said previously mentioned Circus may or may not be already warping her definition of "normal" ... ]

[ ... She was just about to step away, but that noise makes her halt. She feels something drop inside her. ]

... do you ... w-want me to come in?

[ She almost entertains the thought of knocking again, her fist raised just an inch away from the door, before it falls limp at her side and she sighs. ]

... i ... i'm really ... not gonna bother you, or -- or anything, but ... i just thought i'd check on you.

[ That ... doesn't sound good. At all. She knocks again. ]

jax ... i heard it. i heard everything.

... jax?

[ Knock knock. ]

... you, uh ... you ... alive?

OOC : // "mannn i'm worried abt him but i feel like if i pry again he might kill me dude"

OOC : // This is probably a wildly incorrect view on her character but. Ahhh eto bleh

OOC : // The way I see Pomni she's like. A neutral party in the Circus. Kind of going through the motions and getting on everyone's good sides if she thinks it'll help her survive here. A bit selfish to some extent but she for sure cares about everyone, ppl like Jax and Caine included

friend ... ? u-um! yeah!!! we can be friends!!!

( ... i heard that. )

( ... i heard all of that. )

o-oh ... okay ...

s-so, your name is spots? um ... i'm pomni! i'm ... new here, too.

o-oh! hhhi ... sorry for coming in o-out of nowhere, b-but um ... i was just wondering if you ... needed any help ... ?

[ ... She doesn't know this person. Very, very hesitantly -- she approaches him, trying to assess if this is someone who's nice or someone who's mean. ]

... u-uuuhm, h-hey --

... i-i don't ... i don't really know anymore. the others said you can't really sleep in this place ...

i-i see ...

Im hope from a nice trip to michigan. anyone who cares about that a digital circus episode came out

ah? h-how does that work? you ... you go into people's dreams?

ah n-no, it's ... it's just complicated, is all.

[ Tugging at the brim of her cap. ]

... mmh.

haha! they're ... fun, i guess ... until you live in one. 💧

[ She pouts. ]

... are you sure it was? to you?
