"I missed this, Among Us," 5up says.
You blush, feeling exposed under his hazel, nebula eyes without your modifications. You've worn them for so long they feel like a part of your skin.
"Sorry I became so complicated..." you say, "Sometimes we gotta change. Be less, you know, vanilla."
"Don't get me wrong, the new you was very fun," 5up grins. "You kept me on my toes and my friends really liked you." Then his gaze softens. "But you with all the..." he gestures towards the fancy roles glittering temptingly on the table, "...isn't you. The original you is the one I fell in love with, flaws and everything."
Your vision blurs as the nostalgia and months of memories bring tears to your eyes. Crewfu, the lava monster, 5up's birthday, Vegas, Airship, Submerged. "Do you think we can ever go back to how things were?"
"I don't know," 5up says offering his hand for one last dance. "But I hope that I can convince everyone to see what I see."
