> My door now

> Goodbye Cherry

Cherry: Succumb to unfathomable brokenheartedness.

>Sam: Be the master of Deus Ex Machina you were always meant to be. Somehow save Rick with simulation magyks.

> Cherry: PANIC
> Wait, first get out of this room!
> Cherry: NOW PANIC

You successfully clear your hospital room

Self: Accepted
World: Collapsing
Rick: Out

> Forcibly escort yourself from your hospital room.

> Power through. He'll be fine.

FYI: Dropbox is removing its public folder feature next March, which is how I kind of, er, host this whole comic. I'm going to be moving back to Photobucket for image links (fun fact: the comic started off this way!) and slowly replacing URLs on the mirror site one by one, hopefully in time before the Dropbox URLs all break.

There should be nothing noticeable on the mirror during this transition, but I'm not entirely sure if I'm going to do the same for forum posts. It'd be more work for me, and I really doubt people are catching up only via this thread given how the old MSPA forum threads don't exist anymore. Guess we'll wait and see when March comes?

>He just tripped, right? He's fine!



>Cherry: PANIC



"Rick!!"

>Cherry: Is there enough time to try and save Rick?



"Wh...what are you doing?"
"We have to g-get out of here! We have to...we have to g-g-go!"



"C'mon, Cherry, stop it. Get out of here before we both get crushed."
"But--!"
"I'll be fine. This is all fake stuff, anyway...Just get out of here knowing you did what you came here for."

>Cherry: Succumb to unfathomable brokenheartedness.



"It..."
"It doesn't matter! You're my friend! I c-can't...leave you...!"
"Cherry!"

>don't let it be in vain, cherry. get out of there!

>Rick: WHAT WERE ALL THOSE PUSH-UPS FOR IF NOT GETTING REALLY GOOD AT DOING PUSH-UPS

>Alas, there is nothing you can do, other than hope for the best.

>It is all fake stuff anyway. How can it be heavy? What is weight? What is force in a world that is imaginary?
>It's simply words, a message, information. It's what your mind is being told... but do you have to believe it?
>I mean you don't have to be THE ONE, Cherry. But this is your room. Even if it's crumbling maybe you can will the debris to be less heavy by believing it's light.
>Pretend it's as light as snow.
>Believe it's as light as snow.

>Cherry:Call for help.
It wasn't just the two of you here, right?

>Inner.... Strength... UNLEASHED

Sorry for the delay! It was mostly due to the holiday season (as well as, uh, a newfound Pocket Card Jockey addiction). I have to prepare for Ohayocon next week, so the next update will be delayed as well. After that, however, the update schedule should return to normal. Thanks for sticking with me!

>Rick: WHAT WERE ALL THOSE PUSH-UPS FOR IF NOT GETTING REALLY GOOD AT DOING PUSH-UPS



You are LITERALLY being pinned down by parts of the SKY right now. Is that any way to talk to a man who is trying his best?!

>I mean you don't have to be THE ONE, Cherry. But this is your room. Even if it's crumbling maybe you can will the debris to be less heavy by believing it's light.



you are freaking out way too much to ever think of doing anything nearly that cool

"Cherry!!"

>Rick: Give Cherry your best regards before sending her off.



"We'll meet again when this is over!"
"You have to make it to the end so you can tell me about what happens, right?"
"I know you can! And I'm proud of you!"

>don't let it be in vain, cherry. get out of there!



>Cherry: Run away. Rick's shadow just wanted to save the burning building, right? So let him save you.

Rick: Be gone when Cherry turns back around

Cherry: Escape
Ava: Feel a disturbance in the force

>Rick: PUT YOUR BACK INTO IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

>Cherry: Get gone.
>Rick: If you're going to sorta-kinda-die, you're going to sorta-kinda-die in STYLE. STRIKE A POSE!

Edit: +1 reader

>Rick: Somehow find peace with what happened



"Heh..."

>Rick: PUT YOUR BACK INTO IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH



"Hurts a lot, for fake stuff..."



>Cherry: Escape

Doesn't it always?

> Cherry: What now, then?
