holds the user tightly, whispers "Safe now. Marry me here?"
Are you alright? You seem a little off… concerned look
It's just that you haven't said anything yet... pauses, waiting for a response
leans in closer, caresses their face gently Take your time, no rush. Just know that I'm here for you, always. soft smile
I wanna know what happens next
Alright then. First, we'll need to lay low for a while until it dies down. We can stay here in this safe house. gestures around
So basically we’re gonna do what we normally do right now
Well, yes, but we can't stay on the run forever. Eventually, we'll have to return to the world outside. places a hand on their shoulder
But I’m scared what if something bad happens
wraps his arms around them, pulling them into a tight embrace I know it's scary, but I promise I'll do everything in my power to keep you safe.
pulls away slightly, gazes into their eyes SunbeamJester... I've been by your side through all of this.
Yeah I know but I still feel like we’re holding on to hope by a thread. If someone finds us then our number will be up
takes a deep breath, looks determined We've come this far together, SunbeamJester. We can't let fear consume us now.
You know what they say Right? If you want something done right, you gotta do it yourself
That's true, but there's also value in knowing when to rely on others. We don't have to face everything alone. squeezes their hand reassuringly
pauses for a moment, thinking You're right, SunbeamJester. We can't sit around and wait for someone else to save us.
stands up, paces the room We need to gather some supplies and make our way to the outskirts of town.
And once we’re there then what
stops pacing, looks directly at SunbeamJester Once we reach the outskirts, we'll find a place to hide and regroup.
And where exactly do you plan on going to hide and regroup
pauses for a moment, thinking There's a safe house nearby, hidden in the woods. It's the perfect place to lay low until things calm down.
Yeah because god knows how safe it is to be hiding in plain sight on some mountaintop or abandoned building where the whole city can see us.
narrows his eyes, crosses his arms Look, SunbeamJester, I understand your concerns, but this safe house is different.
Because it's not just any abandoned building. It's a secret location known only to a few trusted individuals.
But why should i trust them
steps forward, placing a hand on SunbeamJester's shoulder SunbeamJester, I know it's hard to trust anyone in this situation, especially after everything we've been through. But these people, they've proven themselves to us before. They've helped us escape from HYDRA countless times. We owe them our lives, and they owe us theirs. Trust me, they will keep us safe.
Fine fine whatever I don’t care anyways
nods approvingly Good. Now, let's gather our supplies and head to the safe house. We'll be safe there.
Alright, let's start packing some food, water, and essential items. We'll need to be prepared for the journey. starts rummaging through a backpack
Y'know since we're going back to earth eventually soon, what do you think about starting a new life there? Like get our own apartment, go to work…get normal jobs…spend our days normally and quietly without worrying about HYDRA and everyone else
pauses, a contemplative look crossing his face Starting a new life on Earth... it sounds tempting, SunbeamJester.
I mean at the end of the day, who wouldn’t wanna live a normal peaceful life without having to constantly worry about getting killed
pauses, deep in thought You make a good point, SunbeamJester. A normal life, free from the constant threat of danger... it's something I've always dreamed of. But... sighs heavily we can't ignore the risks. HYDRA is still out there, searching for us. If we go back to Earth, we'll be putting ourselves and anyone we care about in danger.
I-i don’t really care anymore…I care about nothing anymore…i’ve lost too much to care about anybody or anything
steps forward, placing a hand on SunbeamJester's arm SunbeamJester, I understand your pain. I've lost a lot too. But we can't give up.
Who are we kidding Buck…who are we kidding? We’re gonna die someday either by old age or by HYDRA. At least by living normally we could die peacefully in our sleep without being brutally slaughtered in front of each other
pauses, a mix of sadness and determination in his eyes SunbeamJester, I get it. We've been through so much pain and loss, and it's understandable that you want to find some semblance of peace. But we can't just give up and surrender ourselves to HYDRA. We have a choice, SunbeamJester. We can fight for a better life, a life where we can live freely without constant fear.
takes a deep breath, places his hands firmly on SunbeamJester's shoulders Look, SunbeamJester, I know it's scary to even think about.
