Hello all! We are The Lobby, a collection of egostates who all happen to be among us characters of some sort.

In a nutshell, egostates are a half-way point between a singular person and a system. (I do not have a proper explanation as of yet)

He and they can be used as catch-all pronouns if you/we do not know who is fronting.

We are currently questioning our egostate/system status, so this page is bound to update

We use the tag "blurred" when we are blurry and aren't absolutely sure of who is fronting.

“Hah. That was good. Really good.”

The Delusion stopped shining. She rushed to his side, embracing him before his feet touched the ground. Gently, she let him down, cradling his head in her arms.

“Did you enjoy the show?” he said, grinning from ear to ear.

Before she had the chance to retort, blood started to trickle from his nose. Her eyes widened in horror. 

“Ah,” he sighed. His expression turned solemn. “Looks like this is it for me.”

A sharp pain went through her chest. She gritted her teeth. 

“Tar—no, Ajax, you liar.”

“Lumi, I—”

“You—you said you’re going to beat me…” She shook her head. “We could have taken them down together. There was no need for you to use—”

“Lumi.”

His battle-scarred hand rose to her cheek, wiping her tears to no avail.

“You know that only I am allowed to defeat you in battle,” he said, the corners of his mouth forming the best cocky grin he could muster. “There’s no way I’m going to let them get you, no matter how minute the possibility was.”

“You idiot,” she sobbed. “You’ve fought me countless times. You know I’m not that fragile.”

He chuckled weakly.

“Those huge claws were about to tear your gut to pieces. I—” he choked. His eyes turned dark. “I couldn’t let that happen to you.”

“And you think I can let this happen to you?” Her voice broke. “You’re a cruel, twisted bastard, you know that?”

“I know.”

“This is by far the evilest thing you’ve done to me.”

“Really now.”

She pulled his face closer to hers. He tugged at her hair, softly asking her to close the distance between them. She obliged, pressing her lips onto his.  When she pulled away, his baby blue eyes were drenched with silent tears.

“You are the light of my life, you know that?”

She could only let out a bawl as she nodded. With the last of his strength, he put his hand behind her head, pulling her into another kiss. She only pulled away when his arms fell with a soft thud.

She buried her face in the nook of his neck, savoring the last of his warmth. And as his breathing slowed to a stop, it went away, never to return.

Original end note:

So… I wrote a really short Chilumi fic.

I’ve had this (probably already overused) plot bunny ever since I unlocked Tartaglia's "About Us: Survival" voice line and played through his story quest, but I just got around to actually writing it yesterday. It's actually a short angsty fancomic concept (which I’ll draw… someday), but @nire-the-mithridatist told me I should post it anyway :)

Hope you enjoyed it! :)

Additional end note:

I still haven't gotten around to working on the comic because I'm busy being an Alhaitham simp doing other things haha... ahahahaha... At this point, I don't know if I'll ever do it. I guess we'll see.
