goob: luv
choice: stay behind
response: luv wasn't going to pass this up! they did (somewhat) care about rune's safety, but they mainly wanted to see what was going to happen. standing just behind rune, luv waited to see what was behind the door.

goob: starlee
choice: run away!
response: "i always say no goob left behind... but you seem like a capable guy, so you're own your own!" starlee exclaimed as she ran straight out the back. she was curious about what was behind the door, but she didn't really wanna stick around at the moment to find out.

goob: Grim
choice: Stay Behind!
response: When his companion woke up, Grim found himself wiping away at tears. "I-I-I was so worried," he managed to get out between sobs. His nose was dripping with snot, eyes red, as he tried to get all of his worries and emotions out. The entire time Chase held him close to his chest, patting his back. "I thought... I thought you might not..." But before he could get out another word, a heavy THUD was heard against the nearby window. He blinked, eyes wide as Rune told them to leave out the backdoor.

:"We... we can't just goo. So many are sleeping here and Rune is trying to help, too! We would not have made it this far without their help!" he explains. "Plus there's the creature I think we're getting through to and... we can not run away Chase. ...Chase?" Chase however had frozen up, eyes wide. Their gaze had turned towards the window, and the dark goo slamming against it.

"Not again not again not again..." he spoke, so quickly that Grim had no time to register it as Chase started to run. He found himself staring down a moment where Chase had gone, torn between following and his duties here. They had just been reunited, this was so unfair! And yet... he could not follow. He found himself tearing up again.

"Chase..." (225)

goob: Chase
choice: Run away!
response:

It had been surreal, like a long dream he could not find his way out of. He remembered the laughing figure... not meaning harm but not letting him go either. Not on his side then, he decided. He needed to make his way BACK. He was done of these games, he wanted to see his friends again. He wanted to be home. He wanted to be-

-And then with a gasp he opened his eyes, sat up. He looked around him at all the sleeping agels, the drowsy diabs, and realized this... this was a huge problem. "What hap- OOOF!" He laughed with joy as Grim hugged him tight, picking up the smaller goobie so they were both standing up. "We're alive! Oh happy day! I-"

SPLAT.

He saw the darkness, and his mind traveled back. No. No he would not be put to sleep like that again. Never again! He could not think straight, instinct taking over. He could not even hear Grim's cries. All he could do was run away. Away. Away. (174)

response:

Bubs has never had such clear thoughts before now. As soon as danger showed itself, he was outie.

He ran as fast as he could to grab Reese before bolting out the exit with her cradled in his messy hair. Not wanting to take ant risks of losing her to the black mass outside.

2. run away!
you must survive, or else you won't be able to help anyone else!

response: [102 Words]

Crendor is frozen in shock, Rune's words echoing in his brain, "you may want to run". But he couldn't abandon Rune to join Brams fate, he couldn't abandon all the agels and diabs still inside. He can't leave Billie. He can't, but what could he do except fall into slumber too?

He can hear Rune saying once again to run, but it sounds far away as his gaze lands on Billie. Stumbling over his feet towards the back door, he drinks in her face before ripping his gaze away and running.

He felt like a coward, but what could he have done.

goob: cookie
choice: 2 [run away]
response:

Shaken out of his mind, Cookie's thoughts are foggy and meshing together. Seeing some goobies from the group stay alongside Rune and some bolt for the exit, he wonders what to do. Ultimately, he scrambles to the exit, tripping yet picking himself up along the way.

goob: Yurei
choice:
response:

"You used to be the Great Gob." Yurei looked up at the being who had watched over her in her deep sleep during the past few days. Even though she was an agel, she could still feel Jystyr's love for all goobies, regardless of faction. While she didn't know how much good her words would do, she thought she might as well give it a shot. "I don't have any shared experiences or early memories of you like my diab friends do. In fact, you've been gone for a lot of my life. But somehow, when you came to me in that dream, I knew it was you right away, even with that inky void enveloping you. Or maybe it's a part of you, now." Yurei looked between Jystyr and Rune, wondering if her words were getting through. "Look, we need you now more than ever, Jystyr. Even many agels have decided they no longer want to support the gobbess. She doesn't care about us, especially not like you do. We need you to protect us, we're no match against her." While Yurei typically wasn't one to ask for help, she knew that she wouldn't be able to do anything at all about the gobbess. Her only choice was to sit idly by and hope that she wasn't taken on a whim to devour the world whole.

goob: Eos
choice:
response:

"You want me to try and help him remember who he is? That doesn't quite seem like a task that someone like me would be cut out for." Eos observed the inky amalgamation of his former gob, looking him over with a certain wariness. Just how much of Jystyer's conscience was still in there? Enough, it seemed, to get him to stop dripping on the ground upon Rune's instruction. If their situation weren't so dire, it would have easily been amusing to see an all-powerful gob being bossed around in such a manner. Instead of speaking directly to Jystyr, Eos turned to Rune instead. "You know him best, I don't think there would be anyone better suited than you to try and get him to come to his senses. He seems to remember your voice, at the very least. Otherwise I don't think he would have listened to you like that." Eos began to wonder what had transpired between now and the time he had last seen Jystyr a year ago. How had he transformed to this point, and what had caused him to forget who he was? The mergoo much rathered to just sit back and watch everything before him unfold, hoping that it might unlock new answers as to how the world works.

goob: Andromalius
choice:
response:

"I'm sorry, Jystyr, I - I really don't know anything about you. I don't know how to help you remember." Andromalius felt guilty about admitting this out loud, but his entire life had been under the reign of the gobbess alone. He had heard of the Great Gob, and how he was far kinder than the gobbess, but they were just fairy tales in his mind, and he never thought that he would be face-to-face with the fallen celestial being at any point in his life.

goob: Jemini
choice:
response:
"I remember hearing that you are one of the most silly goobs! You liked to make people laugh and you liked to speak through honking!" Jemini said as they tried their best to recall on the things they had heard about Jystyr, of course they didn't know the Gob all that well but they had heard stories, they knew how loved the Gob was.
"Lots of goobs miss you! Rune and Bram have been trying to figure out how to bring you back." They add on hesitantly, unsure if it would help or not as they glanced towards Rune to see if they could get a read of his expression, their head tilting to the side as they tried their best to think of anything else that might help but ultimately ran out of things due to the stress and drowsiness being so close caused.

you must help the gob remember who he is somehow!

response: [45 Words]

Crendor turned to stand face-to-face with the nearly-formed goo creature. "I'm sorry, Jystyr; I know nothing about you or your gob-hood. I know not of your greatness, but I know others do. Even if you don't remember, you live on in everyone who remembers you."
