DOROTHY Epilogue Part 1
Perspective: Dotty
CW: None

 Dotty: Been a bit since we’ve had time to just sit like this, you know?

Lex: Yeah…

Dotty: How’d your session go? Has Lupe been good to you?

Lex: Mm, got a good feeling about this one honestly.

Lex: Got a bad history with psychs but…

Lex: Think she gets a lot of it.

Dotty: Mmhmm. Talked to her a few times, mostly when she was over to check up on Jam.

Dotty: The two of them clicked pretty well while you were gone.

Dotty: But….

Lex: Yeah, I know.

Lex: Wasn’t happy about just… losing half a year of my life like that.

Dotty: Mm..

Lex: Scary honestly..

Lex: All sorts of weird dreams and stuff..

Lex: We have a bit of… a headspace? Mind palace? Whatever people want to call it.

Dotty: You and Jam?

Lex: Mmhmm! But… it was a part of it I’d never been..

Lex: Could hear Jam but no way to call out to them.

Lex: Like… I was awake but I wasn’t.

Lex: When I’m in that place I’m usually what I look like on the outside. But..

Lex: I was a bat? It was really weird..

Lex: For some reason that felt right though.

Lex: Now whenever I’m in that place with Jam, feels weird being a rabbit.

Dotty: What’s Jam look like in there? Are they not a rabbit?

*Nope, a spider.*

Lex: They’re a spider.

*Hi!*

Lex: They say hi by the way.

Dotty: Hey! Spiders are cute sometimes.. Depends though.

Dotty: Do they have the eight leg thing?

*No but I bite…*

Lex: Nope.

*Though when you bring it up…*

Lex: You gave them all sorts of ideas…

Dotty: Should I be worried?

*Yes.*

Lex: Probably.

*I can shoot web.*

Lex: No….

Dotty: What happened?

Lex: They’re telling me lies.

*You’ve never seen my proxy powers in action.*

Lex: Hold on I think they’re like, going to do a thi-

Dotty: Dude what the fuck.

Dotty: Let me just uh…

Dotty: Okay yeah I got a tissue.

Lex: Sorry…

Dotty: You’re fine.. I think?

Dotty: Is that supposed to happen…?

Lex: Not usually…

Dotty: It’s like silly string..

Lex: Yeah…

Dotty: Better get it out of the way before the little patch tries to eat it off the floor.

Lex: We need to name him..

Dotty: Yeah.
