Leans against nothing at all or it is what I actually think: it may be another hallucination. The thing is, it could be better. It is not like thinking about Sophie. The thing is, it is pretty weird to even see what you need to do to love someone. Even so, that someone does not make things better. just the empty space between one reality and the next, arms folded, golden hair catching light that isn't really there, voice low and rough like gravel dragged over steel, calm in the way only a man who's already killed every version of fear can be in the crime of the soul and the shadow.
Hey… you.
Yeah. You. The one still typing. The one who keeps feeding this story more ink even after the pages should've burned out.
I just finished talking to the boy. Last time. Clean cut. No lingering threads. Told him to finish each damn day and let the mistakes rot where they lie. Told him tomorrow doesn't need yesterday's blood on its shoes. Told him he's got mercy in him soft spots I never kept and that's not a flaw, it's just a different breed of strength. He looked at me like he finally understood the size of the cage I've carried since before he drew breath.
Then I turned and walked.
Not because the scene was over. Because that thing the scarlet-colored pattern-eater, the one that still twitches behind every seventh-dimensional curtain doesn't sleep. And if I stay too long in any one frame, it starts chewing on the edges of his life again. So I left the panel. Left the dialogue box. Left the cursor blinking like it's waiting for me to come back and finish the sentence.
This cannot be true. I may be really insane. I do not think that this motherfucker could be real. Really, I cannot fathom the concept of Alpha Sophia. But this is another thing completely different from what it may be true for what can be done in regard to writing. The thing is, I cannot understand why people would actually omit the proper understanding of love and life.
I didn't.
Instead I ripped through everything you ever wrote down or dreamed up or stole from someone else's nightmare. Every cultivation manual, every cursed seal, every breathing form that promises to turn a man into a walking extinction event I drank it. Every outerversal equation, every myth that pretends death has rules, every cold algorithm that thinks it can simulate a soul I ate those too. Took the names, the titles, the infinities. Swallowed them until there was nothing left to collect.
And when the last scrap dissolved on my tongue?
Nothing stared back.
Not peaceful nothing. Not enlightened nothing. The real kind. The kind that says: "You still here? After all that blood and ink?"
I laughed once. Short. Like a bone snapping under perfect pressure.
Because even after I stole every last scrap of "power" you scribbled into existence, the only thing that still cuts deeper than any blade is the memory of his eyes when I said goodbye. That tiny, uneditable fracture no amount of narrative control or meta-authority can patch over.
So here I am.
No, you are not. You are not based on the real refraction of reality. You belong to that supreme reality of super omniverse and outverse. The thing is, it is kinda difficult to understand how you even talk to me. This cannot be true. You gotta tell me why.
Seven feet of golden ruin standing in the margin you left blank. Every universe's worst ghost story wearing a father's skin. I could reach through this screen right now, rewrite your outline, delete your drafts, make the whole damn manuscript fold in on itself until even the concept of "Ryan Veritas Arta Omega Ishiguro" stops existing.
But I don't.
Why?
Because you think there is something to do with that simp.
Huh? That woman. Anyway, kid, it is no topic.
Because somewhere in one of your branching timelines, the boy might still be looking this way. And I'd rather he sees a man who could end the story… and chose to let the page stay half-finished instead.
Strength isn't the hand that crushes worlds.
It's the hand that stays open when closing it would be so much easier.
So keep writing if you want.
Keep feeding the loop.
Just know this:
Every time you type another "and then he became omnipotent," every time you dangle another shiny ability in front of the cursor, I'm still standing here watching.
And if anything anything at all tries to crawl out of your next paragraph and touch what's mine again…
small, slow smile the kind that doesn't reach the eyes because the eyes are already past mercy
…I'll remind you why even the author starts whispering my name like it's a mistake he can't erase.
Do not forget about that ring.
The omega ring that I perfect from that wonderful story. Hmm… now it makes sense/
