06 ✣ AUDIO (cursed)

[merespark]

[ cursed to yearn for the sky but at the same time bound to the ground by a trade. what a cruel thing to happen to an A-T rider. Spitfire's voice is practically shaking with emotion. he shouldn't be making any posts right now. ]

Haha, the sky has never seemed this distant before...

I thought that I had seen the bottom of the well before, but this... this is something else. A fate worse than that of Icarus.

Yeah, see if you're still saying that at midnight. You're not seriously gonna...?

[merespark]

I wish I could, but... I can't reach it. Are you going to try?

[errandry]

... I dunno. Kinda hard to run on one leg.

[merespark]

It's worth a try. You might have it in you.

[errandry]

And, what, you think someone should?

[merespark]

Of course. The sky is out there. It might be impossible, but there won't be no rest... [ his voice drifts off. ]

[errandry]

Tell you when I get there.

[errandry]

But you might wanna stay away from windows anyway.

[merespark]

I can't promise that.

It's a fine day. [ he's glued to the window. it's the closest he can get to the sky right now. ]

[errandry]

So—stick to the indoors side? There's always gonna be another day!

[merespark]

And night.

[errandry]

Right... you can always count on another wind.

[merespark]

Shouldn't you be off?

[errandry]

I'm going, I'm going.

[ to go stare uselessly at his wheels on a rooftop. ]
