Date & Time: Several days after the necromorph outbreak
Location: A VR room
Characters: Chrono + Rosette + open!
Summary: Lil bit of coping in-between zombie apocalypses and civil wars, nbd
Warnings:None! KEVIN AND BREAK
Notes: Feel free to tag around also! ♥
[ Chrono doesn't bother to close the door when he finally decides to try one of these rooms for himself. Something about the last few days (weeks) (months) has left him unwilling to stay in enclosed spaces too long, with no obvious path of exist. Too much like a lab or an undead-lined hallway.
But these concerns slowly melt away as he sets about instructing the AI, and the room gives way to a place that isn't a room at all.
Mountains rise up in the distance, framing a blue, clear sky, and a faint breeze rustles the treetops of a thick Michigan forest. Birdcalls ride that wind, and the air smells cleaner, fresher, than any moon base could reasonably boast. Where the blanket of trees ends, a large, glassy lake gleams in the sunlight. He takes care with this part—instructs the AI to make the water a temperature a bit too low to be entirely comfortable for swimming, knowing full well that this won't actually be a deterrent. But it wouldn't be right, otherwise.
He takes his time strolling from one familiar landmark to the next, having the computer make adjustments as necessary. He doesn't miss details, either; for all the times that Rosette brought him to this very place, his eyes had missed nothing. They were wide and all-absorbing, like someone who had been born anew and was discovering the world for the first time.
(Likely because, in all honesty, he had been.)
He stops once he circles back around to the open door—a black silhouette hanging oddly in the landscape, and the only giveaway that none of this is real. It's here that he surveys the scene as a whole, the sum of all its little memory-parts. ]
Perfect.
[ Well. There's still a thing or two missing. ]
... Almost.

Do you know the year? It sounds a lot like where we come from, outside of the cities.

[he stops next to Chrono, looking around, then over at him. his eyes go wide with a sudden memory.] Chloe had a little, uh...little black thing on her foot. [his fingers lift to denote the size – three or four inches.] When she stuck her foot in the water and took it out, it was stuck on her foot, and when I took it off, it [he makes a face.] exploded into some kind of...goop in my hands.
no subject
A leech? [ There are some demonic equivalents that came to mind first, but he wisely rules those out. ] I made sure there weren't any of those here. They're awful.
no subject
[he looks down at Chrono's hands before reaching for one of the berries still on the bush.] I thought it was some kind of monster. [his mouth quirks; pluck.] But I thought everything I didn't understand was a monster back then...
no subject
[ Holds the berry aloft, in a non sequitur. ]
Moment of truth?
no subject
he looks at his. looks at Chrono's.
a beat.]
You said you'd go first. [don't bail on me, man.]

... A long, hesitating pause while he chews...
It's harder to fool a tongue, that much is for certain, but this illusion makes an impressive effort, regardless.
The future. ]
... It actually kind of works!
no subject
he stares at the one in his hand, then glances up at Chrono. then back down again.
but.
fake?
