i'm sorry i just. finished watching jacksepticeye play through the game and i am actually sobbing and i really needed to write this to fucking RANT ABOUT THIS FUCKING GAME. FUCK. so spoilers (duh)

"sal, i know this is gonna be hard for you to understand. i'm sorry. please don't blame yourself and please don't hate me."

sally's fingers slide across the note, eyes wide under the mask, hands shaking and hair cascading down his shoulders and his face, his lips part and a loud sob emits from them as he gazes over the letter.

"i was lucky to have you in my life. i couldn't have asked for a better brother than you dude."

sally is mumbling, and shaking, and splinters are stabbing his skin as he rushes up the ladder and his eyes peek over the floor and there is nothing. but he knows that there will be nothing. because there is a shift in the air. a shift in everything.

"i know you're gonna do great things. you gotta keep going. keep fighting the darkness."

"larry, larry, what the fuck," sally cries, "what the fuck, come back you fucking idiot!"

there is nothing, and the tears drown him out of the mask, he is choking and screaming and shaking and he can't breathe and no matter how much he screams to himself not to, he finds himself ripping off the mask, gasping for air he can't quite swallow.

"it's coming closer now. i can hear it whispering in my head. it's getting louder."

screaming. sally is screaming, punching the walls, bloodied knuckles, drowning tears, breathless breaths. everything is falling apart and he knows something is there. but he knows it isn't larry and his heart drops as he turns and he's met with glaring red eyes and his heart stops dead.

"i just need this to end. i can't take it anymore. i'm not strong like you are. i love you, sally face. always."

sally feels a cold, colder than ice overcome himself and everything is red and he feels himself falling. but he isn't. and the only constant is larry. the only constant is larry.

"see you on the other side."

black.

"-larry."
