and if i could take it all back
i swear i would pull you from the tide

and i told him.

i told marco how much loved historia and how
it was killing me that she didn't feel the same way, and how i wouldn't ever see her again. marco sat on the ground his eyes fixed on me. that is one thing the dumb boy was good at; listening. he looked like i was saying the most important speech ever; and if i'm being honest it made me feel a bit better about letting my guard down and confessing my feelings.

" i don't want to be rude ymir, but it was pretty obvious you liked her... call it my gaydar " he spoke with a smirk

i'm not sure how i felt about that. i was confused and once again defenceless and weak.

" marco, what the hell is a gaydar? " i cackled and reached down to ruffle his hair in a friendly way.

marco snapped his head up to look at me " YOU don't know what a gaydar is? ymir i hate to break it to you but you are the definition of a lesbian " he fell backwards on the grass laughing. his chest heaved up and down like he has just said the funniest joke ever. i looked at him like he was stupid, as he was quite stupid.

" is that supposed to be an insult, marco you- " my sentence was cut short as the ground started to rumble. my balance was thrown off as i lost equilibrium. i stumbled backwards and fell onto my butt. of course this caused marco to laugh even harder.

in the distance their was a grove of trees. from me seat on the ground i saw a rustle of leaves and a small
figure leaping out of a bush. i should've noticed sooner what was happening, with me being first hand at hange's arrival and such.

the figure was practically flying. as it came closer i made out the figure of a girl with hair the color of auburn leaves. she had a big infuriating smile plastered on her face.

i called out to her as she passed me and marco, " hey you! where are you going? "

the girl skidded to a halt and looked at me with confusion. " someone has just arrived, i know it's pretty morbid but i like seeing new people every once in a while " her voice was like molasses with a familiar accent i had heard a few times in the streets when i was young.

as the girl sped off i stood up and dusted myself off. me and marco stood up and he fixed his wavy hair that had turned into a birds nest as he flailed on the ground during his incident a few minutes ago.

we set off at a reasonable pace. in the afterlife it was possible to teleport locations under some very strict rules but i was never in the mood to look through them all and it's not like i had anywhere else to go.

i kicked a pebble with my shoe and let out a quiet sigh. marco must've picked up on it as he asked me if anything was wrong. i told him nothing was and we continued on in silence.

eventually we approached the gathering spot. like last time people were huddled in anticipation. i wondered why i didn't have this much of a crowd when i arrived, i thought, rolling my eyes.

nothing could have prepared me for what i saw when i pushed my way through the crowd.
