buywithme: (Bruised prefect)
[personal profile] buywithme
[Prefect wouldn't just by random coincidence ask for Sam over the journals, so I'm going to say that he was going to see Sam to ask him for something completely irrelevant and found the room empty. No crossing out in the writing because he did it all in his head first, and no, he's not mentioning that this was brought on by Sam leaving.]

Comrades! Consumers! Is not progress the most beautiful of all things? And are we few? We united and divided few not elevated to the most supreme and final conclusion of this progress? Is this not the route to enlightenment? Do not despair for absence is the inevitable, those we think we can depend on are not our friends but our competitors, those who have discovered the currency with which to purchase freedom from progress and return to history. Comrades, when the world gives you what you want you don't care about those you promised not to leave behind! Comrades, when we give you what you really want? You won't care who you leave behind either.

So don't sit around screaming at the Barge or The Admiral or each other over the absent friends and lost lovers you just assumed would always be there? Instead observe this decay as incentive, The only things that you cna keep are the things that you own, not the things you love or the things you think you mean or the things you think love you, only the great eternal product, the purchase, the item, COMRADES! This is the end! This is how it is concluded! And getting better or caring more or suffering more WILL NOT SAVE YOU! So fill your death with the things that will. The things you get to keep, the things that don't stay with you under the pretence of love, but rather the honesty of ownership. Comrades, let us never again affect, but rather amass! Let us forget the decaying ideals that keep betraying us and move forward to buy, posess, contain, and rejoice in the constant, because the gods are dead and the last of them walked out of here weeks ago and everyone will leave you.

Comrades, this is the universes entire selling point, if you depend on the things you can keep you will die with nothing. This way? My way? At least it's a kind of nothing you can hold in your hand.

I told you I would be there for you.

You only withdraw into the Factory when you're upset, alone. When you want the world to forget that you feel because you hope that maybe you'll forget too. It's kind of sad..

I liked you better when you cared.

Comrade, I'm not withdrawing into the Factory, I'm blossoming. Reasserting. Balancing.

All these months I've not really been here at all, just some echo of me at my worst. Comrade, through proceedure are we released, do we breath and understand and live again. Through obedience are we awakened and I am awake again for the first time in months.

I'm indebted to you, brother.

What, Brother? As you wish Comrade, Gabriel, Sylar, it doesn't matter to me, whatever designation has been assigned to you or you have chosen is the one that I'll use, whatever you want to be, whatever you want to own, time is history is the weight around your neck and it's dead, whatever you were christened, whatever you were nicknamed, it's all irrelevant, we're living in the future and your title is whatever you want it to be.

First you ignore me, then this.. A waste of time, of space. Of life. Enjoy the Factory. Forget what I said before.

Believe me, I have changed, Comrade. Complete transformation. A waste of life. Look around, Comrade, what kind of life am I wasting here?

This place is no time, no space, no life. You forgot that, because you got to leave.

Yeah. All it took was trying to kill myself.

It's no excuse. Less, even. When there's nothing else, all we have is strength or power and connections. The things you sell are important, yes, but they're not--

I'm not going to argue with you anymore. You've moved on to Dent. I just hope that I can move on from our friendship as quickly and easily as you have.

2/2 Private - Have some broken Prefect spiel.

You told me not to speak to you again Comrade. You left. You-- You chose this, not me.

You tried to kill yourself, and you got to go home, and you're telling me I moved on well Comrade let me tell you something the only things in me that I needed tearing down when you offered to help me were built by Harvey Dent so rest assured he could never do for me what you did for me and he is not something I moved on to he's something I left behind thanks to you.

Just not far enough behind for him to stop being there.
grayatonement: (yell)
From: [personal profile] grayatonement
Because I hated you for rejecting me. I'm different now.

Don't blame me for your failures, successes. Everything you've done-- everything has been you. Your own fault. Your own accomplishments.

I got news for you, Prefect. There is no escape, no running away. You can choose to give it to pain and let it take you, blame everyone else, seclude yourself. Or you can try to make amends and move on.

If you want this.. Harvey, to ignore me, to mourn Sam.. fine. Then stop replying and stay out of my way.

I tried t I tried to fix things before I left. Tried to talk to you. Hard to do much alone in Level 0. I thought you would have cared-- You'd already moved on.

Don't blame me. You made the choice not to speak to me.

I guess I should apologize that I had any sense of hope when I returned. I should have known better. People like you.. they don't ever love, not really. I was foolish to think otherwise.

You hated me.

Well that would explain an awful lot, Brother. just wish you'd mentioned it when I was trying to work out what the hell you wanted from me.

Comrade, Lecture me on this place all you want. You dip in and out and I've still been here for twice as long as you have and thank you, comrade but you are talking to a man who is quite aware that he's not going home any time soon.

I lost the choice to speak to you when you left, Brother, and who could blame you? After all, you clearly have a crystaline understanding of the Factory and all it's workings and exactly what kind of a person you think I am. Well you could have got the same answer from anyone here, Comrade, I'm barely a person at all. Cut me and I'd bleed commerce.

You-- No one ever left you alone in level zero, you only are when you declare yourself to be it.

You aren't Factory. Not anymore. You know it as well as I do, that was who you used to be. Why won't you talk to me? Really talk to me?
grayatonement: (downward glance)
From: [personal profile] grayatonement
I'm sorry. I miss you, Prefect. I want to talk to you again, like we used to. Why are we even fighting?

I've never hated you. I was jealous, angry. I hated-- hate how much you effect me. I'm not used to being so.. vulnerable.

Forgive me.

You told me to go! You told me not to talk to you again, Brother!

I am Factory. I might not be any good at it anymore, and I might never get home, but I am Factory.

Nothing in this place is solid, everyone is always lying or changing their minds or coming or going or contradicting themselves. You were my friend, but you hated me, and you left, but you're angry at me for leaving you alone when you told me to leave you alone.

Comrade, everything here changes so much and so fast that I'm afraid it becomes meaningless. The Factory is absolute. Even if I can't even finish what I started anymore, the imperatives don't change. What is expected of me doesn't change.

Brother, I don't know what it is you expect of me.

I hoped we could start over, Prefect. We both said and did things we didn't mean, shouldn't have said, done. Together, we were great. Special. This might destroy everything. Do you really want to walk away from this? End it? Continuing hating me?

I do want to be friends again, but--

Could we not be special please? We tried that last time, this time could we just be normal?
