More about ...In Rain. Time to...

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."

Everyone knows the quote. A lot forget the end. "Time to die." NOBODY knows what a C-Beam is, and nobody ever did...

A lot forget a lot of things. I hope I don't forget for a long time... But, "to telos ho kronos apaitei," so too fucking bad.


Welcome to the after-after! It appears that we lived... Sorry friends.
Though... We LIVED! We get to tell their stories. We get to breathe, and pump the light through our veins. We have work to do, and we still have each other. There will always be gaping holes in our world; people have been lost. So many people... So many people... So many people... SO MANY FUCKING PEOPLE! So MANY! oh god so many.

Welcome to the after-after!
I see you left your mask at home...
WELL THAT'S OK, YOU'RE NOT ALONE!
"It's over!"
Is that a tri-tone?
WELCOME TO THE AFTER-AFTER!
I think quite the same, you see...
The lack of risk is killing me!
BUT I CAN'T BRING MYSELF TO LEAVE!
Welcome to... something...
FUUUUUUCK!
4 MILLION!!!
FOUR-FUCKING-MILLION!!!
WELCOME TO THE FUCKING AFTER!
Lost family and closest friends,
are killers or they met their ends.
And I can't FUCKING bring myself to talk to ANYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All these moments will be lost,
long before my final day.
My neurons will abandon me,
and push the ones I love away.

It's in the molecules of my construction.

And I keep wasting all my thoughts,
inside while they say it's ok.
"It's over!" It's not over...
And THAT wasn't the beginning.

We let this happen all the time.
None of us did anything
when it was thousands every year.
Can we end the false debating?

4 million rainstorms...
4 million minds into runoff...

I'm not worried
about getting sick.
I'm just worried
about accidentally
falling in love
with someone who
was completely fine with
getting the entire world so
fucking sick that everybody
lost at least one close somebody
if not a list so long that when they
recite it to themselves throughout
the day they frequently forget
several names of people who
deserved better than
DIEING IN A PLAGUE!

So many.
So fucking many.
