He put it on. The worst mistake of his life.

He was right here. Stuck. Imprisoned in this digital hell hidden behind a kid-friendly veil.

His sanity started dropping fast. Old friends gone, consumed by their growing insanity. His own mind fell deeper and deeper into the black abyss, messing up names, and misremembering faces, his time was nigh. Not yet... there was still a chance... Or so he told himself as his mind deteriorated. The light was fading fast, and nobody could help him. He was alone. But, in some part, a very distant and broken piece of his mind persisted. That remnant of his old self refused to fade away. If he goes down, let him be the last one...
