Challenge/Prompt: #42 - blue
Summary: Florence wonders.
Florence wonders what it's like, in the real world. This world feels real, she feels real, but she's not stupid. She knows.
She thinks that in the real world, everything would be better, and not just because the bombs never dropped there. Things in the real world would be true, they would happen, really happen. The real world exists in a way the realm never could, never can.
Sometimes it feels like it's always night here. Even when the sun is shining, when the sky is blue. There's a darkness here that never leaves, never goes away. All of them, the VC, they carry it inside them, she thinks, it's programmed in. Self-destruction, written in to their blood, into their code.
And maybe Hobbes can change that, maybe he can't. Maybe they can't. But they're going to try. They'll try. And Florence holds that thought, close to her, tight against herself.
