New Worlds, Old Friends (and Fiends)

Work Text:

Pyx wasn't expecting to remember Loop Life once she returned to Crabcraft. She didn't realize she remembered it until after she got to the area where prom was taking place. She and Will were talking when three people came over, two of which triggered the memories of the finale. Scott and Everest were standing right there laughing and joking around. Pyx didn't even realize she shot Scott until the death message popped up in chat. 

It was fine though because Crabcraft had infinite respawns though. Which is probably why when the memories of Loop Life came back to her, she aimed her bow at Robin, laughing as they both shot at each other and killed each other over and over again. She also killed Will once or twice and the action was reciprocated. In full honesty, she hardly remembered how bad she felt during those last few moments, just that what had initially been a vengeful action now turned into a silly game, everyone laughing and taking turns trying to fly up and shoot each other. 

Well, she did forget until she accidentally shot Everest, noticing how she didn't die too. It was weird to be cut off, but as soon as she realized they weren't connected she remembered the trick Kier had led her to believe right before her and Everest's death.

Pyx didn't even process that she rushed over to Everest, all she knew was that she was profusely apologizing to them for her mistake. She did completely and fully regret the false secret soulmate thing that had happened, she never got a chance to apologize for it though, despite the fact that no apology for it really made up for it. After all, that mistake was partly why their final life had been lost.

It was safe to say she was shocked when Everest forgave her, but if there was one thing she knew about life games was that any negative emotions felt during the games were meant to stay in the game. She just decided that regardless of that fact, she and Everest were on good terms still, and that was enough for her. 

Prom was fun while she was there, despite the bittersweet fact it was a celebration of the end of this server. She knew they'd all be back in a few weeks time, all of them would be, her, Everest, Scott, Will, Robin, Bailey, Fusion, Bee, and everyone else, but they'd all be different. 

In this life, this world, Pyx didn't have any enemies, not really, it was peaceful. Sure, she accidentally spent the first months alone traveling from the tops of her mountain range to the sculked depths of the underground, but she had become friends with the other server members by the end. Hopefully, everything would stay peaceful next time too, and she won't accidentally self-isolate. Maybe she could be happy here, if nowhere else.
