I dunno Maya, why do you feel so afraid?

Is anyone around? This your normal route? You in a dream?

Are the sudden voices in your head that aren't your own something of worry?

Is there a way to track where the bus is? Usually the company website will have something like that.

i. i think this is my normal route, yes.
the one ive taken to school every day.

just like every day.

im honestly not sure if this is a dream.
maybe i was dreaming? itd explain why everything suddenly feels so loud, including you. i feel aware enough to not be sleeping, but id also think that while dreaming, right?

either way, im awake now.

and the bus is late for school.

oh shit, youre right, my phone!

...
its not there. theres the other bus that would come by this stop, 13, but its supposed to be there along with bus 7. like it just vanished. my bus is not there and it should be and ill be late to school and.

okay.
okay. spiraling isnt going to help. this is a simple, managable problem.
just. focus.

...okay. my options.
i could walk to school, which i really dont want to do, thatll take about an hour, along with cutting through the city which... i am hesitant to do. (Evil Men) (probably)

bus 13 goes diagonally, but itll be near the school in about two hours. significantly longer, but being on a bus would give me at least a small sense of safety. along with also not walking. which is the main thing. my legs hurt after like ten minutes. dont be mean.
>>
No. 1108617 ID: b1382a

Alright, I'll try really hard to not be mean about the fact that you can't walk an hour without your legs hurting. Lol. Lmao.

Anyways, if you gotta get to school despite this sense of unease, I guess I'd look for another bus stop on your phone along the diagonal route. I'd still recommend heading back home, missing a day isn't gonna kill you. It's very suspicious that both buses would be gone.

i. um. sorry. the rest of your suggestion is good, >>1108617 (except for the 'trying really hard not to be mean' fuk u fuk u fuk u). whether i take another bus along the way or not, it seems the consensus has walking towards school. i suppose i could always just hop on one if one shows up along the way, i just
something about the city scares me.

"If you really insist on going to school instead of staying home, I'd take Bus 13 if I was you."
"Maybe taking it and using your map to pinpoint where the route is closest to your school, and that way you can cut through most of the walking while still getting there somewhat on time. Either way. You should talk to someone that you'll be late. Tends to soften the blow when people know what the issue is."

1108623

it feels surreal, walking here. just one block down from the bus stop and one turn out of the suburbs.
a perspective ive never seen before. its mundane, but just any change from routine can be groundbreaking if.
yeah.

im used to seeing these buildings from a car, which are now sparsely populating the streets, and yet the feeling of loneliness isnt sated.

the WPharmacy lies down past the small hill next to me, a few cars parked, probably workers, or. something. i dont know why i feel the need to justify these things.

next to it, the 'the blurger', a grumble from my stomach betraying my feelings on this dump, *way* overrated, and that stupid-ass ironic name feels like its trying to pander way too hard to... well, lame kids like the ones standing next to the dumpster outside, doing god-knows-what. probably meth or planning their next rape or whatever shitkids do nowadays.

im. im not hungry. well, not a significant amount. maybe later. but. while im On My Way, itd probably be fine just to grab something, right? i dont want to consider the burger joint, but itd likely be more filling than just whatever snacks i grab from the pharmacy, but i also really dont want to support blurger's business practices. i. im talking like ive already decided im going to grab something to eat, eheh...

>>1108621
am. am i interesting? thats. i dont know how to answer that. i hope so, but im not entirely sure why id hope so. um, im maya. i go to school, im a *developing mind*,,, i. i guess i kinda like video games? horror especially, even if most are shit. i want to say i like reading books, but that feels like lying considering i havent finished a book in ,,, god knows how long. i like stories but reading is difficult. i, i um i used to develop games when i was younger bbut i kind of. lost the passion to do that. i, i dont know why im trying to sell you on myself???

>>1108622
shit, you shoulda told me earlier!!! all the other voices were telling me just to dash to school!! but uh, yeah, ill try to take a bus along the way if i spot one. not particuarly sure what you mean to 'tell someone ill be late', though. like, just text a friend and ask them to explain to each of my teachers my bus didnt come? or. do you mean calling my parents. because im. im not doing that. preferably i can get through this without them even knowing anything happened.
>>
No. 1108625 ID: 9b5e9d

I'd avoid the kids and get some snacks if you really wanna get something. Seriously, who names their place 'the blurger'.

Didn't really think of it as "selling" yourself just now. I'm just a weird voice in your head, if anything you were just selling yourself to yourself. How's that work?

Anyways, it doesn't hurt to get to know who I'm suggesting actions for. Trying to help keep you sane since you seem a little... well, on edge.
>>
No. 1108626 ID: 228fca

>>1108623
well the burger joint may be more filling, and a big cheaper but its probably not worth going near anyone right now, a pharmacy feels more safe

get a cheap snack and dig in the trash for some food as well like I do, you'd be surprised how wasteful people are, and your in the grand ol city! no ones really going to pay any mind to it, avoid anything wet though.

Hello, Maya. I think you're doing wonderfully. Thing is, maybe you should pick up the pace. In my experience, when I'm scared, even if I don't know why- there's usually a reason. I choose to listen, and I'm still here. Worst case scenario, we get further from home faster, right? I hope you don't mind that I've drawn you. I'm simply happy to make your acquaintance.

i. sorry. theres a lot of noise in my head but for some reason that popped out the most. im in the pharmacy. im. im trying to think this out. i hope you guys arent mad im so stuck in my head. or maybe you like it, considering its what gives you guys life, or something? maybe?

>>1108625
y,yeah. ill do my best to avoid them. i tthink they mightve seen me staring, though. its. its funny youre saying 'get to know' like you dont already know me, eheh...

>>1108632
tell a friend? school is starting soon, but i dont think any of them would bother, but i guess i could try? if it lessens the chance of getting in trouble, then alright.

>>1108638
im TRYING to hurry!!! you try lifting all this with my little legs!! but. um tthank you! i. i appreciate tthe um. tthe . tthe imagery of me. even if its a bit impolite.

okay, i hate 'the blurger' but working at borgerland is a fate worse than death

>>1108625
>>1108638
one, um, one thing though. its. its a bit surreal hearing you guys. like,,, personify yourself? this much, i mean. im used to talking to my head to bounce ideas off myself but. i mean, >>1108626 its surreal hearing a voice in my head relay memories i dont have. im. im not sure what my point is. i just . felt the need to acknowledge it.
i. i mean i dont even know what it means when an internal voice 'gifts' me art, a mental image just showing up in my head. is there a term for that ?? e.either wway i um. i appreciate it a lot. thank you.

it feels cold in here too, but the air feels more artifical. shelves stacked with candy next to medication. overpriced chips lay next to stomach pain medicine. also some cheap toys, too? it wouldnt take long to check these out, and im sure theres other aisles i dont see that you guys probably do. i

First off, check if Arizona Iced Teas are still 99c. They're the one thing capitalism is good for.

Secondly, what's your support system look like? You seem to be concerned by the idea of even telling your friends to pass on word that you'll be late for school.

Take a breath, one unit. Infinite doses.
Slow In. Four count slow.
Hold, four count slow.
Release, four count slow.
Repeat until centered.
Take as needed, before or after eating.

I figured being in a pharmacy, a prescription was appropriate.

Snacks is what were here for, so find those snacks.
Also, a bottle of water.
Hydration is good at all times, but especially if youre taking a longer walk than youre used to.
