you've been trapped before? somewhere with no exits, like this?

[no visible exits anyway. if there truly weren't any, Barret had resolved to make one.]

[entirelymyown]

Yes. For untold lifetimes.

In the Dark World outside of time and space, beyond all realities that is Death and chaos.

[ecocentric]

damn. that's nuts... that's the sort of thing you only hear about in stories where i'm from.
so, how'd you manage to get out?

[entirelymyown]

I was trapped there by a book. When the book was opened, I was able to get out. My partner bound us together so I wouldn't go back.

[ecocentric]

shit... no wonder they're your partner. must be rough being here without them. it's a shame you went from one prison to another one.

[He wonders why he was sealed, but so far, the guy seems... harmless? A little strange, yeah, but that was par the course as far as Barret was concerned.]

[entirelymyown]

It's the worst thing imaginable. [ That is not hyperbole from him. There's nothing he wants more than to be with Arthur. ] I hope he comes here soon.

Is this prison terrible to you?

[ecocentric]

you want him here? i wonder how he's gonna feel about that...

and yeah, it's terrible! all this ostentatious shit's just one big trap, and i've got places to be! people are counting on me, you know?

When I was brought here, he was recovering from a plague brought on him by a being that meddled with his mind and forced him to either submit to such a malady or die.

He was nearly killed multiple times that night. before he was offered healing.

Less than a week before that, he *did* die. And I had to watch that. And get him back.

Most of our time is pain and fear. We spend most of it trying not to die. Here, there's food and water aplenty. There's beds, even if they're small. Actual danger is rare. And I have a body of my own, so I can help him if something happens.

[ There's other parts to it, but those are the big and easy to explain ones. ]

Fuck yes, I want him here.
