Work Text:
Four years, four years of trying to escape, four years doing the same thing again and again, for years of being away from her friends. But now that they were together again, Match was happy.
She was walking around the pillary ruins with Ruby, it was a pretty place, the sun was shining very brightly. The downside was that Match had to avoid looking at Ruby because the light was reflecting off of her. ” So like, how was it in BFB? I found out that they split the show.” Match said. ” It was really fun!” Ruby said. ”But the part I didn’t like was the BRB.” Ruby continued.
”The ’brb’? Was that a challenge or something?” Match asked.” No, it’s where we were sent after getting eliminated, we did get tablets though, that was nice.” Ruby explained, Match looked at her with an unreadable expression but then quickly looked away.
”…..”
” …. Match? You okay? You seem a bit… off.” Ruby asked. ” Oh-No, I-I like, just spaced out for a second.” Match stammered. Ruby wanted to say something but decided against it.
” What was it like in the EXIT?” Ruby asked. Match paused for a moment, ” Oh, it was like, not good? I spent most of my time there trying to, like, escape with the others.” Match said.
” How’s Pencil doing?” Ruby asked. ”Pence-Pence? I’m not really sure actually, she was like, okay the last time I saw her. Well, as okay as she could be in there. She was, like, stuck with Bracelety and David so it couldn’t have been that great. I hope she’s doing well…”
The two of them just walked in silence for a bit until Ruby grabbed Match’s arm ” That reminded me, I really oughta show you something!” Ruby smiled and started running away with Match following suit.
