Chapter 5: Meeting a group of famine survivors

Things have been going pretty well the last few days. Thankfully, nothing too meaningful had happened, meaning that you had the complete freedom to do what you wanted for the time being, at home. What you decided to do was to try and become closer to a specific someone. Blackberry. You see, he might act childish at times, but he actually wielded a wild beast by the name of Patch. The guy was absolutely insane, and his past was cruel. Becoming closer to someone like blackberry would really help you in the long run.

At the end of every week, you were going to receive your paycheck, meaning that you were going to be able to buy more essential things soon enough and start putting away money to rent a place out. As much as you hated it, you might be staying here for a very long time, until you figure out what to do to get back home.

"... Good morning!" A happy voice said from behind you. You turned around, only to see that it was Red who was there, waving to you. You relaxed a little bit when you saw the other. You weren't exactly looking for him, but this was nice too. Besides, interacting with someone that was friendly towards you was a nice change of pace.

"Good morning, Red! How did you sleep?" You asked, curious, as he laughed a little bit. "Ah man, I didn't sleep much tonight. Had to finish up assignments all night long. Barely got a few hours of sleep. Can't exactly sleep longer, got classes in the morning!" He said, letting out a sigh, as he scratched the back of his skull.

"Ah, man. Are you going to have breakfast now?" You asked as he nodded. "Yeah! Want to join me?" He asked. You thought for a moment, before nodding. Besides, this might be a good chance for him to meet a few people that he didn't know yet, or even become closer to the rest of the guys.

"Sure, sounds fun, Red. So, I never asked you, but what do you study?" You finally asked as you and Red started walking down towards the stairs, and then downstairs. Red was wearing a red turtle neck, with jeans underneath. Strangely enough, the clothes didn't look like they fit a skeleton, but instead, a human. Or at least, someone with more than just bones.

"Oh, I study engineering at the local university. It's my third year. The next will be my last. I also work part-time as a mechanic at a friend's place. So, I keep myself busy these past years" Red said, laughing a little bit. "The first few years after I arrived here, they were pretty rough. Drank myself into the hospital quite a few times, but nowadays, I try to stay positive and just keep working, you know? No point in wasting my life away." Red said, a warm look on his face.

It was true. You understood what he was saying. Red seemed like... a good person. It really hurt knowing that he is just like everyone else, at the very end... You sighed, not wanting to think about it. You needed to be like Red and not give in to your fears or obsessions on going back home. If you were going to go back home, you needed to take it slow.

"How about you? What's your tragic backstory?" Red laughed, as you joined him. What were you going to tell him? You knew almost nothing about the original host and you couldn't exactly tell him or anyone else the situation you were in. Letting people find out they are just a game character would be... world-shattering. You didn't want to know the aftermath of such knowledge being let out.

"Well. I've been... Not the best person" You said, nervously. "A real asshole, sadly. But ah... I've been working a lot on myself. Decided to turn a new leaf you know? Pick my shit up, try to make amends with people, and start working. It's nothing fancy, but I'm taking those baby steps into becoming a better person, you know?" You said, as Red quietly listened, before nodding, and smiling at you.

"I know what you mean. I think you're doing pretty well. Compared to what Sarah has been saying about you, you are a nice person. Thought we wouldn't get along but. I'm glad I was wrong" Red said, as you let out a weak laugh. Yes. Sarah. This wasn't... Going by script. Sarah, one of the playable protagonists, was not the type who would talk badly about anyone, even if it was the truth. And she still hasn't met Sarah... This will be troublesome.
