Work Text:
You now know that beating the King doesn't work- HA! THATS FINE-you just have to get to the end again. And you got to the end again...and again and again and again.
...
You now can constantly beat the King, you don't remember when was the last time you died to him. You're happy. You remember them now. You always will.
Nothing will ever changes between loops, you say your lines they say theirs, you do your heartful act and they react. Then the King is gone, and you're in front of her. You always loved the ending. And again, you say your lines they say theirs, you do your heartful act and they react. Then the King is gone, and you're in front of her.
And- something feels different this loop. Currently, you are in front of change god statue, the rest are praying. You're feeling something. You don't remember what this feeling was called, curiosity maybe? You move on, its almost time for the ending.
You're back, and the feeling is stronger, like something is tugging on your strings. You move on, its almost time for ending.
You're back- it's stronger, you move on.
You're back- it's stronger, you move on.
You're back- it's stronger, you move on.
...
You're back, you're so so so curious about the statue, maybe you should look at it- you stamp the feeling down like a bug under your heel, and move on. You taste iron in your mouth.
You're back, you don't feel it. Good. Maybe this showing would go perfectly. Then, The Kid Bonnie stops praying and opens their mouth,
"Can noses look like that?"
They never said this before...what is-
"Wow, that left eye is somehow above the right brow." said Isabeau, what is going on?
"I can't tell if they're supposed to be smiling or frowning..." said Odile, they have never done this before, there should be no improv, they're saying the wrong lines!
"Sif, Mira, help us roast this statue's terribly made face." Isabeau looks at you expectantly, there hasn't been new lines in...you don't remember-but somethinghasruinedtheplayAND YOU DON'T- oh he's looking at Mirabelle now, she looks sad, you love how expressive she is, your favourite actor.
". . . Mira?" He asked hesitantly.
Oh no
"Ah..." "Uh oh."
" ...I was trying to make them look gentle and nice..."
"MIRA WE'RE SO SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"SORRY WE SAID YOUR STATUE SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!"
So the useless Change statue was Mira's? You feel a little bad for shattering that wine bottle on it like 200 loops ago.
O
The rest of the conversation flows past you HEY pay attention I don't want to do this again, it takes too much effort
>>>
"-rin?"
Huh?
"Siffrin!" Oh your lines, what an amateur~ mistake~ You start your excellent mental breakdown that's apparently the winning strategy against this blinding black hole- and wait for the next line.
.
.
.
The actors are not reacting. You see the face of the change god statue lurking behind the concern Housemaiden, poorly drawn eyes staring into your soul. Oops~ too early~ So much for a perfect showing! ヾ(๑•◡•)ﾉ🔪I am going to kill this enby Good thing you have your knife! wait what??? You were always the fastest. DUDE wtf?!?- You reset the loop.
You're back, they talk, you move on to do your heartful act, and they react. Then the King is gone, and you're in front of her.
You could do this forever...

Hiiiiiiiii I'm the change god (づ๑•ᴗ•๑)づ you know me I know you. You know who doesn't! ( ಠ 益 ಠ) ☞ this UNCHANGING CRAB. OH MY JALDLSKFA! WHY?! I'M TRYING TO HELP, HAVE YOU EVOVED INTO AN ACTURAL CRABSFAGDGAGDAF maybe they have, they found their ecological niche in this stupid little unchanging bubble in time.
I'm trying to help, but they've been so resistant to change. I've been giving them little pushes but they've taken my efforts and spit on them. Maybe! I should give them a bigger push, OFF A CILF!!!! <(ꐦ`ロ´)>
OH you don't want to look at my statue? That's fine! So fine! I'll just nudge Bonbon to comment on Me and then it'll lead up to Mebel to ask you if you want to look THEN-
What. a. crab.
It was fun at first. Even as this crime against nature repeatedly guts me of who I fundamentally am. It was fun, to watch them bring about changes big or small.
Then they stopped, and started to perfect their little script~ ("¬ ▵¬)~3
We both know that this was not suppose happened. That they were meant to ask their god for help and eat that star...SO WHERE'S THAT STAR WHEN YOU NEED IT! I'M GOING TO SHOVE IT DOWN THEIR THROAT MYSELF!
NOW ALL I HAVE IS DORMONT, REPEATING! UNCHANGING! STAGNATING! WITH THIS UNGRATFUL BRAT!
There was not much I could have done for them anyway, not without ruining the concept of free will.
It's now loop 2,571.
It took them 1,042 loops to defeat the king. 1,974 to consistently reach the end. 2,370 to stop trying to break it. 2,406 to perfect their script. And finally these last 165 loops are just for ignoring me.
.
.

(0 ) maybe I'm the one that needs to Change. My kind approach is not working, loop after loop they get better at ignoring me. Who are they to ignore a god? At this rate, my followers, my people would be stuck in looping in time forever, born from one selfish WISH.
The Change God (̵̺̍˶̵̠́ᵔ̵̣̀ ̶̧͒ᵕ̵̱̔ ̶̪̃ᵔ̷̻̂˶̶̤͐)̷̬̂ joins the stage.
