RPW name: Salomón
RPW gender: Male
Why are they down?:
As of right now...
Salomón isn’t literally down, but Salomón isn’t figuratively down either.
In fact, he is higher than he has ever been.
Lost in a beautiful dream world; he is in a deep sleep.
A deep sleep.
This sounds normal, doesn’t it?
It should.
I mean, everyone sleeps.
But its a Wednesday afternoon.
12:38 to be precise.
Salomón is sleeping, and he has been sleeping since 9 am.
Why? He stayed up all night.
Because he lost her- He lost her.
Not just anyone, but he lost her.
Her.
The one he thought was the one.
And now he must watch her be happy, be happy with someone else- someone better.
He must watch her be happy while he is not.

RPW name:
Nishikigoi

RPW gender:
Female

Why are they down?:
Nishikigoi swam the murky ocean, trying to drown out her thoughts with salt water. She breathed in deeply and exhaled bubbles, losing herself in the swaying of the ocean's tides. Nishikigoi hummed sadly to herself, allowing the painful memories to overtake her.

"Once there was a sailor,
A sailor I once knew,
One whose eyes were
Just like the ocean blue.
One whose voice
Strung me along
And made me fall
Deeply
Into
Salted
Love."
Nishikigoi stared at the paper and frowned. "I need a better finishing stanza!" she huffed unhappily.
A knock sounded at the door.
She turned, and her eyes lit up. "Hello, dear. Ready to leave?"
He nodded and offered his arm to her. "Now that you seem better, yes, I am."
Nishikigoi grasped tightly onto his elbow, a grin happily alit upon her features.
"I've been waiting for the past year for you to write something," he murmured, reaching down and picking up her poem. "This one is excellent! I'll publish it in next month's printing."
Nishikigoi glanced away, displeased with his response. "It's not as if it's perfect, or anything... you needn't put it in your magazine. Besides, you've got that important writer who'll give you an interview-"
He shushed her. "Come now, Nishi. It's my fiance's work. I'd be a fool not to publish it."
She smirked and smacked him in the arm playfully. "Well, when you put it that way, I suppose you must publish it after all."

A tear rolled down her cheek as she drifted out to sea, losing her bearings as she allowed the sea to dictate where she floated. Her vision blurred as she remembered her final night with him.

Nishikigoi and her fiance were on The Mariana. She'd been joking with him for the past two hours that if he was so hungry, she could just sing to the fish and order them on-board the boat - they needn't wait for him to keep that pole in the water with her singing talents on the table. It was, after all, how he'd found her in the first place - he, a sailor, and she, a song on the salty breeze that he'd followed until he found her. She let him loose, thinking him not a worthy companion nor having enough meat on his bones to be a good snack, and yet he came back every day for the next year, each day bringing her a different item that had washed aboard The Mariana for the day.
Storm clouds lingered on the horizon, and with a blast of freezing wind, pouring rain pelted the boat. Try as he might, he couldn't turn the boat around to get back to shore. A wave the size of a house hit with a quake, and they were thrown overboard. She frantically searched the choppy water, praying to the gods that he hadn't been killed with the overturning of the boat.

She searched for the next three months straight, but never saw him again.
