Work Text:

Alt!Calliope: Wake up

Hussie: Sleep, John

Alt!Calliope: Wake up

Hussie: Dream, John

Alt!Calliope: Wake up

Hussie: See it, John

Both: Dream in anime

 

Alt!Calliope: You must make the choice to go or stay

Hussie: Go, John

Alt!Calliope : Defeat my brother or build the bonds that you let fade

Hussie: Go, John

Alt!Calliope: But nothing you do will stop the dying day

Both: Dream in anime

 

Rose: Happy birthday, John, dear

Rose: Our lives are in your hands, dear

Rose: Our fate, like always, is tangled up in you

A!C/Hussie: Choose, choose

Rose: Tell me what will it be, dear?

Rose: Please don’t be a bitch, dear

Rose: Can’t you see I’m dying to break this news

A!C/Hussie: Choose, choose

 

Hussie: The Green Sun is long gone, John

Alt!Calliope: Let my brother think he’s won, John

Hussie: There’s only one thing to be done, John

Both: Dream in anime

Hussie: I know things you don’t know, John

Hussie: Lord and Prince must go, John

Hussie: Just put on one last show, John

Alt!Calliope: Dream in anime

 

John: I feel the pressure once again

John: Years after I pushed away all my friends

John: Maybe it’s time to let these old rifts mend

 

John: Between the choice of sweet or weight

John: I let myself briefly hesitate

John: But life’s too short-- bring on the stomach ache!

 

Alt!Calliope: The prince’s power thwarted

Alt!Calliope: In this timeline-- it’s distorted

Alt!Calliope: I hope it’s for the best in the end

Alt!Calliope: Live your pleasant boring life

Alt!Calliope: With your pleasant boring wife

Alt!Calliope: I’ll collect what I need in the end

 

Hussie: Sleep, John

Alt!Calliope: Rest, now

Hussie: Dream, John

Alt!Calliope: It’s for the best, now

Hussie: Don’t see it, John

Both: Don’t dream in anime

Notes:

I'm not 100% happy with this yet, but I like the vibe and the ending few verses especially. And everything Rose says. Only mentioning because I have notes on my masterdoc that this is to be reworked. I think it was mostly over who was voicing what lines, re: Alt!Calliope and Hussie.
