“I’ve got to be completely honest with you, the past few days I’ve been completely terrified. The dissociations have been happening at a much faster pace now. I’ve got to put in the mental effort to constantly remind myself that I’m alive, otherwise I become intangible and start slipping through things. Just yesterday I spent the entire afternoon stuck to the floor. At times I could feel the wooden splinters jab me at my side, and while I’ve been able to see you now whenever I can, I’ve been seeing doppelgangers in the corners of my vision. Different versions of me, at different times. They fill whatever room I enter, and I’m shown a deluge of all possible worlds.

It strikes me as incredibly sad that I see most of them smiling. Very few of them even look at me.

It’s like slowly edging onto the border to death, being entirely aware while it happens.”

“I’m sorry you’re in pain. I told you that something like this might happen. Don’t worry, the last few days are approaching, and we’ll soon forget we ever had any pains at all.”

ous. And nobody can tell the difference.

(-)burgs and (-)villes across, war has become unbearable. months have been crammed into days, the same cycle of erasure and restart treating those subjected to it like machines, the times expecting them to perpetuate miserable cycles that Camus would find abhorrent.

In ten years, the streets will be clear again, and reparations will be made. Mistakes will be acknowledged, and people will try to live lives again. Some will seek counterjustice, some still will try to pretend that the dead were never alive. Some still will forget entirely. This is not about them. Among the statistics, tens upon tens upon tens of lives were wasted, two points in that graph, will have attempted to take their passing into their own hands.

in a phrase, they've abstracted. (in their native Filipino, gone for lost)

Had they waited longer, they would've woken up to a bright, sunny day today. They would've had their morning coffee, would've laughed together.

All they've left was this screen, spitting out words and ideas, all they've ever had.

Had they waited longer, they would have continued to be the mean instead of the minority, melding into the flow, having never laid bare their ideas for anyone who would listen.
