[Drowned Trilogy] Waterlogged
#20
YOU: Go somewhere new
YOU: Somewhere you can relax!
YOU: ...Maybe somewhere you can see the stars?

DAISY: …Yeah, that sounds nice.

Daisy responds out loud now that nobody is around.

Slowly, she walks back the way that Verity led her earlier in the day.

DAISY: I saw a garden on the way here, I’ll go there and wait.

By the time Daisy arrives at the garden it is starting to get to be the afternoon or even early evening. The sun is just starting to pass over the horizon, and the sky is a pale orange.

DAISY: I don’t think I’ll see any stars for a bit, but I’m fine with waiting, do any of you have any ideas on how to pass the time?

YOU: Well. I could just ask you a bunch of questions

DAISY: Sure, shoot.

YOU: Do you think everything is going okay? Is this going how you wanted?

DAISY: Well, I don’t know how ‘okay’ everything is in Aspersion anyway, I think Verity is trying to keep calm honestly. She clearly misses me, and also really values the help I used to provide around here. Which is probably why she’s so eager.

YOU: But is it what you want?

DAISY: I think so, Aspersion… Aspersion is a great place, it was when I lived here last, and it has been for the last three years too. Things just are… more tense now, more tense than they’ve been in a long time between Aspersion and Spindle. And from how she’s talking it’s been like that for a while, since… since what happened with Loom and I even.

YOU: Is stuff that different? How about the people? Are they different?

DAISY: I don’t know. I mean, Verity seems more doting than in the past. And… and there was everything with Damien. We used to be friends, but he just… he took Loom’s side after everything and...

Daisy sighs heavily and goes quiet

YOU: I mean, what about any of the other gods, do you talk with them much?

DAISY: ...Not really, before more so, I’d talk to Rust, Crash, Burn… honestly I spoke with all of the other gods from time to time. I think they just haven’t wanted to bother me. I don’t know if they’re worried or want to pretend that everything around me isn’t happening.

YOU: That’d…. That’d be pretty shitty

DAISY: Yeah, kinda, but I’m pretty sure they’re just scared of seeming like they’re taking a side, typical political neutrality.

YOU: Ah…

For a while Daisy and you talk back and forth, about politics, about the new expansions to the castle. The underground labs are new, and Daisy is looking forward to seeing more of what is down there,  at some point Daisy lies down at the foot of a tree.

The next thing you know, you are staring up at the stars, and the sky is starting to turn a dark blue.
