This was no longer even entertaining to watch.

Childishly small hands rolled the dinner roll over and over, playing it across her knuckles and back into her palm, then repeating the cycle. Everything in this place repeated. It was boring and used up. The whole feel of it spent. Monuments could die, worlds, in this game and everyone would be left blinking and yawning in the rise of a new morning. Something in the child wanted to scream. Instead, she dropped the roll and left it in her wake, moving about the shimmering barriers that surrounded Neo Horogomo. Little prisons for those trapped inside of the walls, though little more was left now than that which might be useful in this 'war'. The sensation to scream was covered by the desire to laugh, sarcastic and brittle.

Small fingertips played across the barrier, leaving lines of shimmering blue and green where they had touched. What would it be to break that sheild and watch its pieces shatter in the icy blue sunlight or the green ichor of the moon. It would be a crescendo, a dynasty of noise and light and death. Magnificent is what it would be, freedom from this cage of holy admiration. The gods had chosen them, and so they were here, leftovers like herself only trapped in the mix. Laughter turned slowly to solemnity, sludge creeping through her veins at the thought of it.

She was trapped here and that was enough for now... and being trapped was something she would never forget the sensation of.
