Ryale chuckles and sighs; it was worth asking, at least. Well, they'd find their chance to throw a great party one way or another no matter what, but it'd have to wait for Eternity to let them go first. Until then, all she could do was what she'd grown to be best at: lay here...+

"Fuck no, that's why he brings the booze and leaves the planning to everybody else. But he's not half-bad once he's drunk, and he always knows where the next hookup is." Sophie talks like she's been to a lot of these parties. In reality, she's only stumbled into a couple. 1/2

... on this beach and wait. "Catch some z's. I'll play 'lookout'." Nothing was ever out here to look out *for*, but that wouldn't stop Ryale from trying.

Being rich *did* sound like a dream, but then again to Ryale being *anything* sounded like a dream compared to Eternity—a beautiful dream that was always just out of reach, flickering out of view like a mirage. Ryale hmms thoughtfully. "That's not a bad trade. Does this guy... +

"Man, wouldn't that be the dream." In reality, winning some sports bets isn't gonna make her rich, it might just make her better-than-broke, but it was all for the hell of it. At the end of the day, she'd find some way to survive unless the Last City went to shit. 1/2

... know how to throw a party?" If so, then this already had the makings of an excellent plan for her next trip to the 'real world'.
5
At least there was a little modicum of security in that; no matter what trouble she ended up in, she’d find herself back in Eternity. If only she could leave whenever she wanted, it wouldn’t be so bad. Ryale finally lets her eyes open again, the light flooding in like a… +

The only assurance that the Nine ever paid attention was in the fact that they always returned to this place. No matter what, no matter how long it'd been or how much had happened since, she always wound up back in Eternity, just like Ryale. Except for Ryale, Eternity was ... 1/2

… reminder that she’s still alive. She turns slightly towards Sophie. “We’ll make it work. I’m sure you’ll win it big at the races any day now.”
11
No use dwelling on these things: being in Eternity was depressing enough without wasting the time ruminating on old regrets and decisions you couldn't change. Ryale couldn't even remember what decisions had led her here, and maybe it was better that way, so she couldn't be... +

The Nine had their grand design where each of them served as pawns or puppets. Sophie understands why she ended up in this mess—it was Nobody's fault even if she'd taken the plunge herself. Did she regret it? Some days definitely. Other days, it was a somber part of an ... 1/3

... haunted by it. While her eyes stay shut, Ryale smiles widely at that, like a beautiful daydream. "I'm gonna hold you to that. Next time we're out, we'll throw a party no one could possibly forget, that we'll still be too wasted to remember."

You'd think the centuries spent in Eternity would be enough to break Ryale's dependence on the creature comforts of being alive, but the moment she got a taste of normal life again she began craving it all over again. Better to feel hungry than to never feel anything at all. +

It was hard to return to this place after being gone for so long. Hard enough for Sophie, at least, she had to imagine it was worse for Ryale. After just a taste of what the wider world had to offer, she was shoved back into this cell. In Eternity one was never hungry, ... 1/2

Ryale sighs in an overexaggerated manner and shuts her eyelids. "Yeah... we'll see if our 'bosses' ever let me out." Centuries of waiting and she still had no idea why the Nine had trapped her in Eternity, beyond just serving as a gateman for the others who occasionally... +

Ryale had been trapped away for too long to hope for much, but meeting Sophie had been like a miracle and now Scion felt much the same way. It was like her whole life was new again, even if she still spent most of her time trapped in Eternity by herself. “Me too. This place… +

Sophie's glad the few friends she has are getting along, maybe even more than *just* along, but she doesn't say that outright. Scion's always been a sweetheart and Ryale's always been lonely. They fit so well together whether they realize it or not. "I wanna try to get ... 1/2

… is *so boring* now.” She hadn’t realized how much she missed eating until she’d finally had a chance to do it again; worst part of Eternity was when you started to forget what it was like to be a human being.

“Two’s too many, I’ll just steal some of yours,” despite the fact that it’s already been freely offered. Ryale may be a chronic daydreamer, but she knows her limits. The mention of Scion makes her perk up a little, dropping her hand to rest on her chest. “It was *really* fun. +

Replying to @SilveredSnake
"Okay, you can have a slice or two, if you really want some. Or I could get us two cakes, you know." When you're stuck in Eternity, you start daydreaming about simple things like eating and sleeping and waking up. "...that was fun last time. I think Scion really likes you."

She’s so *interesting*.” Ryale would love more chances to pick at Scion’s brain, but Eternity always beckoned her back sooner or later, fettering her to this barren landscape once more.

If Ryale had ever cared about getting messy, then an eternity in Eternity had driven that impulse out of her. Right now, that cheesy gooey mess looks like the best food she’s ever seen in her life, and she’ll suffer whatever stains she must to have some. “Good thing we left… +

"Gotta be fourteen. Maybe fifteen." Sophie scoots into the booth, completely neglecting her liquor in place of cheese. There's nothing that sounds better right now than nachos and a nap. "You eat 'em with your hands, but it's gooey, so. You're gonna have to embrace the goo." 1/2

… ‘sober’ behind a few hours ago.” She follows Sophie’s lead, grabbing a pair of chips stuck together and bringing them up for a bite. A little cheese drips from her chip onto the table as she chews the crunchy, gooey treat. “Oh my god, that *is* good.”
11
It won’t take *too* long for Sophie to come back, but the combination of extreme drunkenness and lack of food weigh Ryale’s eyelids down, even despite the pumping music and chaotic lights. Every blink is another step closer to passing out right here on the table, but she just… +

The prospect of gooey, cheesy nachos is more than enough to motivate Sophie, even if she's still stumbling around like an idiot. It takes twice as long to find her way to the bar. Yelling over the music. Strobe lights making her wobbly. Only when the tray's passed over ... 1/2
