THE BAD END MEME 2
You've chosen your path and it's led you to one of the worst possible ends. A bad ending you've averted in the past could be coming true after all, a possibility you've always feared could be happening now. It's game over.
Bring it
▻ post with your character, make sure to note their name and series in the subject.
▻ taggers RNG it up.(If you want)
▻ tag other people with the number you rolled and thread from there. or skip the rolling and pick your own scenario!
▻ have fun!
Prompts
one｡ SURVIVORS -- you two are the only ones left, whether it be the result of the apocalypse, a fight with the final boss gone horribly wrong, or something equally tragic. now you're left to contemplate friends and loved ones lost, as well as which one of you may be next.
two｡ SICKNESS -- you are seriously ill. poisoning, virus, perhaps it's even mental; whatever the reason, you doubt time is on your side this time.
three｡ FORGOTTEN -- you're not sure how, but your memories are crumbling and the things you do recall are hazy and make you dizzy. can you even recognize the person in front of you anymore?
four｡ SEPARATED -- you can see them, hear them, but something's keeping you from being with them. perhaps you're placed in a room with impenetrable glass dividing you, or you're hiding in a phone booth downtown, calling them secretly.
five｡ MELLOWED -- you've been through things, you've loved and you've lost, and all of that's changed you. maybe you finally decided to give in to temptation, you could be addicted to a substance you know is destroying you, or you've simply lost the optimism you had as a youth.
six｡ ANTAGONIST -- you've flipped the coin. you had to do it; they might not be able to understand it, but you just can't forgive the things that have happened. the darkness has consumed you.
seven｡ FREE CHOICE -- combine any of the others, reroll, or make up your own bad ending. the choice is yours!

As you say.
... Then I can take the fuel, and leave.
[If he truly isn't needed, then maybe it's best if he does go. Better for the both of them.]
no subject
I don't want you to leave. [The Nightmare King says quietly, barely audible as he looks ahead of himself, his back still facing the robot.]
no subject
Then why are you being so angry with me?
[Kagerou, you're standing in the middle of a street where apocalypse monsters or zombies could be lurking. Why are you asking this question now.]
no subject
I'm not angry! [Despite how his voice is being raised.] I don't know what I am! You... You protect. You protect someone who hurt you previously. [Which he still doesn't understand, and he can't seem to wrap his mind around it.]
I don't see why. Why do you insist on helping me? You are better off not wasting your fuel on someone like me. [But, the way he says it, he doesn't want Kagerou to leave. He doesn't want to be left alone.]
Is it your programming? Is it in a chip in that head of yours? What?
no subject
[He says it as simply as if he were saying "the sky is blue". Except it's probably not anymore, but. Still.]
[For a moment, he doesn't seem as if he's going to speak. And then he half-turns, looking out over ruined buildings and empty streets.]
[... Whose life has more value? This girl's? Or ours?]
[Hers. We can be rebuilt.]
Someone once told me, that others' lives were more important than our own. We are only AI. We can always be rebuilt.
I know that you aren't human. You don't need to remind me.
[He looks back, and his optics focus. As if he's actually looking at the spirit, and the desolation around them.]
But he would want me to do this. He would be... proud of me... for doing this.
no subject
But you can't be rebuilt, Kagerou. What if something happens to you? What if you're ripped apart? Into pieces? What am I to do? I can't rebuild you! And I'm sure as hell that there's no one around here for as far as I can see, that could rebuild you.
[He takes in a shaky deep breath, trying to calm himself.]
If there's a chance, at any point in which we're in danger, don't risk your existence for my own. It's pointless.
no subject
[It's all the response he has. He knows there's no one here to repair him. He knows... if the worst happened, there would be no rebuilding. And he still has no desire to die.]
[But...]
How could I face him again, if I hadn't done what he would do?
[He's only a prototype. He has no right to act beyond what his more advanced model would do. Right?]
[He should hate this being, by all rights. He should leave him alone in this place, to fend for himself. But at the same time... he knows what it feels like to be utterly alone.]
no subject
[Then again, the spirit had never seen this friend of his. Was he really that impactful to Kagerou? Or was it because he was just his prototype? The first version of him, onlt to be later forgotten and replaced. ... That's right. His friend was made to be an improvement of Kagerou. And yet, Kagerou held him in such high regard.
It still stumped Pitch
But... now wasn't the time for this conversaton. Night didn't last forever after all.]
Let's... just keep going.
no subject
[He has to live through this. Has to survive it. If there were any way to get back to Shadowmaru again... he has to get through this first. He's fairly sure this isn't what the other ninja meant, in terms of what he'd wanted for Kagerou. But he doesn't have a choice anymore, does he?]
[Live to your heart's content sounds more like a dream than anything concrete, in this place.]
I will see him again. He'll be proud of me. I'll be worth being alive.
[He says it, mostly to himself, quietly, firmly -- as if these are words he's said many times before.]
[Then he looks down, and nods slightly.]
Very well.
