in the sillage lies your image


On your last legs of life, you decide to go to your friend's house. "Than" has always had your back. He was your best friend, after all. But you're sick of the hospital being your second home, of seeing the nurses sympathetic faces.

So here you are, lying in his bed and wanting to take a nap and maybe talk to your best friend before you take your last breath.

You're dying and you know it (and so does your best friend Than).

im crying a lot because i tried taking my life a few years ago so it made me hurt a lot but i love the game always :)..

we stick together op 💪 💛

why am i crying ... this was a wonderful experience truly!! love the bgm!!

this is honestly just so sad it made me cry so much im sobbing 

i cant believe im actually crying right now, i havent cried in longer than i can remember so this kind of hits really hard.. thanks for being able to bring back a part of myself ive almost forgotten about

wait.. why is rain coming out my eyes!? Amazing work! But I'm kinda confused, did Than leave after MC passed or was it before and then MC listened to the voice message and saw Thans spirit and decided to pass in Thans room?

I think Than was first and MC is having a talk with his ghost.

a game that so deeply related to my own perception of having to suffer with chronic illness. i've never seen a piece before that describes it how accurately this has, and how despairing it is to be reminded of what you're forced to live with. nonetheless, i find the strength to go on, and i think this story inspires such drive all the same

This was the most gutwrenching and heartbreaking game I've ever played. It was so good, it left me with an empty feeling that was also melancholic in a way. Such a saddeningly beautiful game.
