So, you're dead. Shame, that.
But on the other hand, it's actually kind of nice.
When you "wake" in some odd version of it, you'll find yourself lying on a rather plush bed. It's cozy and warm and just soft enough to tempt anyone back into sleep. The room is equally nice, if small, and when you turn and open the curtains to look out the window, you will see... wait, is that the town?
It is, actually. The town is laid out quite simply across the window and no matter how many times you may bang or wave through the window, no one seems to notice you. If you're smart enough to give up the venture and leave the small bedroom, you will notice that, of course, you are on the train.
The train that, is actually pretty fancy.
Moving through it, past the sleeping cabins and through to the main carts, you will find a dining car with fine dishware and meals of all kinds made at a push of a button or a request given to the air. They'll appear, freshly made and ready to eat at the table of your choice with any drink you could want. There truly doesn't seem to be any limits when it comes to the luxury of the meal.
There is also a bathhouse car with private bathrooms and saunas to fit up to four. Even one rather large room containing a small pool/hot tub of sorts is available for just about anyone to take a dip. It's kind of outlandish, honestly.
Then the lounge car, with its library and plush armchairs and couches. A pool table, a darts board, even a small area dedicated to painting. There's a bar too, fully stocked and ready for anyone who needs a drink. All it would require is a request from the bartender who... looks surprisingly familiar?
The Sheriff is there, much cleaner cut than his counterpart outside of the train. He looks up mildly at any arrivals, giving them a nod of greeting before going back to organizing bottles or setting cigars out for a smoke. He doesn't seem to be surprised at all by anyone who appears. Just... ready to serve them, whatever they may wish.
It all sort of seems okay for a moment, until you realize you're just here to wait for the game to end. Awkward. |

It's hot... And it's hard to breathe...
[ He shuts his eyes when the lighter gets closer and closer... He's reminded of the flames, of the church, all the flammable vines, and also from the night on week three... He's actually kind of scared right now-- he tries to struggle again. ]
I . . . Gave him my diary, and I said sorry in there...... Is that not enough..? If... I don't listen to you, will you burn me, too?
..... Please don't do that.... I'm scared.

--wait. You did what? ...
Tell me why you did that.
[ Because... it sounds like Russell actually did feel bad in the end. But does he even understand it? ]

And..... If I write my murders in my diary, maybe they'd believe that... I'm murderer...
[ Initially, he wrote how he killed his parents and brought it to the police as evidence. Of course, that kind of screwed him over and got him the death penalty. . . But the same train of thought kind of applies here. ]
After I killed her, I got the medicine . . . That allowed me to have happy dreams, but then. . . It started making me feel bad, and...... I didn't think people's lives were connected like them at first... I didn't think killing her mattered at first, I thought it wouldn't matter as long as no one found out -- but it does... I just didn't know.

Heheheh.
[ Claire starts to laugh at that explanation, before throwing Russell in the air and catching him by the collar, then gently setting him down on his own two feet. ]
You really are something, you know. More importantly, your answer was the right one. Turns out you have a soul after all, who knew!

Well, Russell looks a bit relieved at least! So maybe Claire isn't as weird... or bad as he thought he was??? He doesn't know. He's still kind of weird though? ]
Really... ...? [ So, that's a good thing, right? ] ... Does that mean I can talk to dogs like you?

C'mon, let's grab something to eat, I'm starving.
[ After just having nearly killed him??? ]
