Hey. Hi Scar. How are you? Never mind. You’re not okay. You’re dead.

(Stupid. Fucking stupid Xelqua) uhhh, I don’t know why I called your communicator. Just uh after what happened, I miss you. I miss your smile. I miss your laugh. This was dumb, I don’t know why I called, bye.

It’s me again, Grian. [Laugh] heh. Who else would it be? Not Bdubs. Not Scott. Not Jimmy, not Etho, not Impulse, not Skizz, notCleonotTangonotRennotMartynnot-

[Silence]

Oh god. They’re all dead. They’re all dead, Scar. We- I- They killed them. They could have had families Scar. Shit. They’re all dead. This is my fault. They’re all dead. Fuck Scar, they’re never coming back. You’re never coming back. [Sob]

I’m so sorry Scar, you don’t need to know about this.

Hi Scar. Grian again. Again, I’m sorry, for- for you- [Chokes] [Clears throat] Uhh, anyway. It’s been- it’s been about a week now. I built you a grave! It’s right next to Pizza’s. I think you’d like it. I went to Scott and Tim- Jimmy’s (He’s not your friend anymore Xelqua) base and got some flowers. Lilacs! And poppies too. They’re pretty. I get why you gave them to me, all those months ago. Did you know poppies mean remembrance? Yeah, I didn’t either. They told me. They seem to want to make my life abso-fucking-lutely hell. At least I have you. I don’t know what I’d do if I didn’t.

[Sigh] It’s me. Scar, life is shit. I hate it. It’s too quiet and too loud at the same time, it’s so lonely yet so full and I can’t deal with it anymore. It’s just- just too much for me now. How the hell did you cope? I certainly can’t. I am not going mad.

I wonder what it’s like for you right now. I’m not religious, but there must be somewhere we go after death. Is it calm? It must be light, because wherever you are, if there is a heaven, you’re for certain in there. I can’t imagine you being somewhere else. I don’t know where we go after we die, but you’re in the best place.

[Scoff] I won’t be going there when I die.

Scar. Scar. Scar. Your name is nice. It’s pretty. It fits you. Which is ironic because, well, you know. I’m not saying it fits because you have scars; just that it works with you somehow.

This is so awkward. I hate it. I wish you were her Scar. I miss- [Chokes] I miss you.

Scar I need help. Everything is wrong. So fucking wrong. I died Scar. I died. On my red life. Why am I alive Scar?

It was a creeper too. The same thing that brought me to you, tried to take me away from you.

I’m messed up.

They did something to me Scar.

To my brain.

 

I don’t know what They did. Something messed up. But I shouldn’t be here Scar. I- [Sob] I need help. (You don’t need help Xelqua. Everything is fine.)

I did it.

I know how to bring you back.

After They murdered you, I managed to… convince them. Convince. Yeah, convince. They said They can give me you back. I need to do something; it doesn’t matter what. You’ll be back Scar! Oh Scar. [Sobs]

I’m sorry I haven’t talked a lot Scar. I’ve been busy, and honestly, I just feel like I can’t bear to hear your voice. So, I’m sorry for that, but it’s fine, right?

I’ve got to go now Scar. After I died, my hunger has been going lower and lower even faster, and I’m running low on food. Bye Scar.

Oh Scar.

I miss you. I miss you so fucking much Scar. You don’t understand. You can never understand. You can never understand because your fucking dead and I fucking killed you.

And you’re never never coming back.

They said no.

They said no Scar.

I offered. I offered everything to them Scar. I offered my life. I offered the world.

And they said no.

They- they said no.

Oh fuck- [Sniffs] I- I don’t understand.

Who fucking hurt Them.

Who hurt them so much that they had to take it out on me. On us.

What happened to Them.

I hate them Scar (Xelqua…) I hate them SO MUCH.

I WISH THEY WERE DEAD. I WISH THEY WERE DEAD AND YOU WEREN’T AND THAT WE COULD BEBACKINTHEDESERTWITHPIZZAANDNOTSTUCKINTHISFUCKINGHELLHOLE!

[Deep breath] [Shaky] Scar…

They keep speaking to me, ya know. Like evil little voices inside my head, threatening me with everything that I do, everyone that I love.

I’m sorry Scar. I need to go. I- I need to breath for a minute.

I’m tired Scar. I’m too tired of this shit. I’m tired of broken promises and Them and just everything in general. I’m tired of sitting by your grave everyday, waiting for you to come back, even though I know you won’t.

 

I’m gonna do it. I’m done with this life. I just too tired for it now. I just feel done.

So, bye, I guess.

Bye Scar.

I love you.

(Quiet child.)

Notes:

*WYFILWMA starts playing* even though Grian says that Scar deserves heaven, I can imagine Grian dying, going to whatever bad underworld, and being shocked Scar is there, because he believes Scar can do no wrong. However, we know that scar is not as innocent as he seems.

Written while my internet died :)
