>>43188505I think what lends Wallflower a lot of popularity is that she's basically a canon FemAnon

>>43174028>You've been frozen in front of the door just listening to the girls talk>You didn't mean to, but when you heard Wallflower talking about the gaps in your memory, you couldn't help but want to know more>And now you're listening to her saying how she doesn't regret doing it in the first place>Be Anon>And be very, very ticked off>You move to open the door and confront Wallflower about this>That is to say, you slam it open>Both of the girls turn to you>You meet Rose's eyes first>Though they're filled with anger and frustration, you know her pain is multilayered>Both by being hurt, lied to, and played with her emotions>What you heard was hard as is, even without context of what happened>Rose has to deal with it now>You stop yourself from even looking in Wallflower's direction>You can't bring yourself to see her like this>To you, she was past her faults>She was to help you, all of you>But you turn and look into the eyes of the shattered delusion you sold yourself on>Wallflower looks as though she's falling apart at the seams>Her eyes wide open in surprise>Tears gathering around their edges>Her lips twitching as if she was about to say something to hide behind>You don't know if it's because of your sudden appearance or if she was already breaking>But from the sounds of it, she wasn't sounding any regretful>Something tells you she wasn't expecting you to be on the other side of that door"And yet, you're not sorry?">You take a step inside the room, and let the door close behind you>Rose stands up to come to your side> "Anon are you-" She begins, before you both lock eyes >Whatever look you're giving her, it's enough to speak for you>Rose stands aside, rubbing her arm as if she had been punched>She knows the answer is no>You're not okay>You feel used"You told me you didn't meant to use it, right? The first time you erased our memories">Wallflower sits perfectly still as you approach her>You watch as her chest rises and falls faster the closer you get"Then why, why keep using it? Why keep trying to force yourself into our lives?">You stand in front of her>She has to tilt her head up to keep her eyes locked on yours"Why sabotage us at the one opportunity we could've had to move on from what you did?">A tear falls down her cheek>Her voice is but a whisper, but with the absolute quiet within the classroom, it sounds as if on an amplifier> "I was alone"
>>43189877>You watch as more tears fall along her cheeks>But she doesn't break eye contact with you>As if by doing so, you'd just walk away from her forever"And who's fault is that? Who erased our memories in the first place?">Her lip quivers, holding back a sob>You watch as snot builds up at her nostrils>Though you feel bad about making her cry>You need to know"What could have even made you do that?">Wallflower has trouble speaking>But she forces out one word before she snaps> "Dad">She closes her eyes, finally breaking eye contact>Letting out a wail as she has a full on meltdown>She hugs herself as she slams her forehead down on the table>Letting her tears drip down to the floor>You turn to look at the framed picture of her and her dad, hanging on the other side of the room>The only one she displays at all times>And you remember that's how you got her to open up to you in the first place>You turn to look at Rose, whose gaze is fixed on the framed photo as well>You two were close with Wallflower, if something happened to her dad>Why would she push you away?>Maybe, just maybe>That's who she is>Wallflower's weeps and sobs pull you away from your thoughts>Though it makes you sick to think of what she did>You don't want to hurt her>Even after finding out about this>You drop to one knee next to her>And hesitate to do anything else as she cries alone>You're alone, too>You place your hand on her shoulder, reminding her of this fact>Her bawling stops for a second when she registers what you're doing>Only to resume even louder>You turn to Rose, her eyes fixed on your hand>And you can tell she's having an internal struggle by the way her eyes shift from you and back to Wallflower>You tilt your head Wallflower's way, silently asking Rose if she wants to come closer>But it doesn't seem like she's ready, preferring to back against the wall as she hugs herself>You can only nod at her in solidarity>Maybe if you could split yourself into two, you'd be able to comfort them at the same time>As is, however, one is crying her heart out>She may be the reason you're all in this in the first place>But she's also hurting>You're all hurting>And once she's done crying>You'll remind her of that fact
>>43189882>Wallflower cried for a good few minutes before she was able to utter another word>The most she did was thank you when you offered her some tissues to blow her nose>All that time, Rose didn't move from her spot>Whenever the two of you would lock eyes, she'd give you a fake smile only to then look away and get lost in her thoughts once again>You didn't know what to do>You wanted answers but if you pressured Wallflower now, you doubt she'd do anything but go back to crying>And you wonder if Rose even wants to be comforted>Truthfully, you don't know what she's still doing here>Does she still want anything to do with Wallflower?>Maybe she's waiting for you to leave, and go back to having a one-on-one>Or, maybe she's waiting for her friend to finish consoling a lost cause>Whatever the case, she's still here>There may be a chance for you three to mend this yet>It's all up to Wallflower now>She mentioned her dad, which means that something did happen to him>But for her to push you away, did you do something to her?>As the gardener blows her nose again, she tries to speak up>Her throat coarse from speaking, she struggles to actually say something>And then> "He got sick, dad">This manages to get Roseluck's attention, and yours as well>Wallflower coughs and clears her throat, continuing "I never told you guys, but he was hospitalized for a couple months leading to our junior year's Fall Formal"> "A year ago, then" Rose interrupts her, finally taking a couple steps closer to the two of you>Wallflower nods at this, brushing her messy hair off her face so you can properly look at her> "He couldn't take care of the school grounds or the garden in his condition, so I swore I'd help maintain them while he got better">Her eyes shift from you to Rose, a meek little smile growing on her face "You two helped me so much, but I didn't want you to worry, so I didn't told you he was sick in the first place"> "And in the end, he just.." >Wallflower doesn't finish her sentence, falling into silence as a couple more tears roll down her cheeks>Rose stands next to you, watching Wallflower sob>You can see Rose's expression has softened a lot, and you see her hesitate to take another step forward>But she doesn't, putting a hand on your shoulder for support as Wallflower blows her nose one more time> "Principal Celestia must've told you guys about it, because by midnight, all of you were waiting for me back home">Her bloodshot eyes lock onto yours, "I know she was just trying to help, but I just didn't want to talk about it, I didn't want you guys to see me like this"> "I ran" Wallflower says between sobs, wiping a few tears away "I.. I told you guys I didn't want to see you anymore">She reaches out for your hand, and you hold hers>She's shaking
>>43189885> "I broke up with you, Anon. I don't know why. I just wanted to throw myself into the void, and stay there">You don't know how to feel about this>You just place your other hand on top of hers> "I just kept running. I didn't had anywhere in mind, I just ran and ran until I was out of breath">Wallflower looks out the windows, and stares at the garden far off> "I ended up at CHS, and I was so mad that it didn't matter how much I cared for these flowers. Dad wouldn't be here to see any of it">She dries the rest of her tears and takes a couple of deep breaths before continuing>The way she's looking at you, it's eerily similar to the way she looked a couple days ago>Shifty eyes, gauging your emotions, like a cat ready to bolt> "I went through the garden, ripping off flowers left and right. I was so done"> "I should've stopped there, but I kept going until I got to the center. And then, I felt something dragging me to that stone ornament">Wallflower slumps over in her chair, holding her head in her hands as she sighs> "That stone, it did something, and I swear I felt my heart splitting. It was like all the pain I was feeling just got.. multiplied">And that's how your memories went>In a fit of blind rage and some presumably magical rock>You've kept your blank expression through all of her explanation>But this makes you stand up and reconsider things"So then, you really didn't meant to do it? It just happened?">Wallflower nods and grabs your arm as you get up>Her grip is tight, she must be desperate "I promise, Anon. I just, I wanted to be alone for a while, and it happened">You hear from behind you, Rose muttering under her breath "Well, you got it" as she turns around to look out the window>And yet"You used it again, didn't you? And not just to try to befriend us again">At this, Wallflower's hand limps while still holding onto you> "I, yes, I used it for my benefit"> "When things got awkward, when you'd think I was creepy, when Rose and Daisy and Lily thought I was following them""When me and Rose became friends?">Wallflower whimpers and falls to her knees in front of you>Her weak body hanging from the grip she has on you> "I didn't want to be alone for so long. I didn't thought you two would became so close even without me"> "Please, Anon, I miss you guys so much">There's no more tears flowing down her cheeks, though you can see the regret on her face>Still, you can't help but feel used>And Rose>You don't want to assume how she feels, but she hasn't said anything to Wallflower in a while>Yet no matter how much she pleads>You haven't heard an apology from her"I don't think you've realized it yet, Wallflower">Her body stiffens at your words>You don't know if it's right for you to give her hope>Or if you want to offer her a second chance>So instead, you'll do the same thing she just did>And explain your piece
>>43189887"I'm not who you used to know, I don't know if I can be">Out of the corner of your eye, you see Roseluck turning her head to hear you better"What we had, and what you took from us. It's all gone, and whether you regret doing it or not, it's your fault""I'm alone too, Wallflower">Wallflower tilts her head up to look you in the eyes>You can't read her expression>But you know she's listening to you"I wanted a friend, I still do. But I want that friend to be real, and for that to happen, you need to think about what we want""And, I want to know if you're even considering using that stone again.">Wallflower thinks for a bit, her eyes shift from you to Rose>You see the two of them looking at each other, before Rose turns away and goes back to gazing into nothingness> "I don't, I meant when I said I was done using it, I don't want to hurt you guys any more">That's a start, at least>You hold her arm, and support her>Wallflower shakes a bit, but eventually begins standing up on her own>Her head barely reaches your shoulders, so you get a pretty good look at her hair up-close>Good lord it looks brittle>And you don't even know that much about hair >She still has to tilt her head up to look at you>You see the dried tears and boogers on her face>This girl needs a shower, a warm blanket, and a hug>She steps back and crosses her arms, guarding herself as she sighs and looks down at her shoes in shame> "I messed up, didn't I?">You hold back any sarcasm you have at the moment, and just nod your head>She looks past you, focusing on Rose>Whom can definitely feel the two of you looking at her, though she pretends not to>You put a hand on Wallflower's shoulder"What do you see in her, Wallflower?">Rose stands upright at your words>Wallflower, however, just looks at a loss for words"Who is her, to you?">Rose remains turned away from you, though you can see her hugging herself, as if bracing for what she's about to hear>Wallflower's words die in her throat, it's apparent to you that she doesn't want to say the wrong thing now more than ever> "She is, she.."
>>43189892>Wallflower clears her throat and continues "She was always there, for me"> "When we first met, her family had just moved in to Canterlot, and I was surprised the new girl took an interest in me, the shy girl who blended into the background"> "And she just, never left my side.">A small smile grows in Wallflower's lips, in contrast to her freshly dried tears> "I was never alone with you, and I miss that so much, I miss how you lit up my day whenever we'd talk">Wallflower begins walking towards Roseluck, who remains adamant in not looking at her through her monologue> "I, I remember how strict your dad could be. And how you told me how he was so different when I was with you, much more relaxed">Wallflower comes at a stop within arm's length of Rose>She looks terrified of taking another step> "I can't imagine how you must remember that, without me there."> "You were alone, weren't you, Rose?">The redhead turns around, and you can see she's trying her best to hold back tears> "I just, why won't you just apologize already, Wally?">Wallflower takes a step back at this, and seems like she's about to turn to leave>Instead, it's Rose who makes her way to the door, leaving her schoolbag behind> "I'm sorry!" Wallflower yells out, just as Rose reaches for the handle> "I, I know it was wrong. I'm sorry I was jealous, I'm sorry I took advantage of the stone, I'm sorry I.. I'm sorry I destroyed your friendship">Rose turns to face Wallflower>You can see Rose's exasperation plainly written on her face> "You're not really sorry" Rose leans against the wall as she lets out some tears> "You just don't want to be alone anymore">Rose hugs herself as she slides down onto the floor> "And neither do I, but I,"> "I just don't know if I can forgive you, Wally" Rose hides her face in her knees as she sobs>Wallflower stands there, watching her former best friend crying>You're about to begin brainstorming what you should do now>If you'll be forced to pick between the two of them>But it seems like you're giving too little credit to the gardener>Wallflower slowly approaches Rose, and kneels down in front of her> "That's okay" comes from her green lips, soft as she can possibly sound> "Please, I just want to try again. Hate me if you want, but please">Rose looks up, and the two of them lock eyes>You can see the fear in Roseluck's eyes, wondering if it'll be different this time, if there's anything else that could hurt even more>She closes her eyes, takes a deep breath, and hides her face behind her knees once more> "Just, give me until after school. Okay? Please">Wallflower stays there, though you can't see her face, you can feel the sad, forced smile with which she replies> "I'll wait for your answer, then"New thread new update, have some more angst. Next one might be delayed, it all depends on if that eqg vn demo drops this week.
>>43189558For this board, I'd say
>>43189900Damn
>>43189900Really great update anonI came in late to your story but the note that Wallflower's dad was the school gardener I thought was a cool detail, explains her interest in it. The reveal he passed away and was the impetus for Wallflower erasing Rose/Anon's memory out of a raw, emotional desire to be alone hit hard, I can relate to being so angry/upset that you just don't want people right now but with the Memory Stone it took things too far beyond her control. I also like the raw emotion from Anon/Rose, who might have forgiven her for just that but that she KEPT using it afterwards to manipulate things to the way she wants, it's a messy situation where Wallflower is pretty much all at fault but there's a lot of emotional instability. I think it's fair they haven't forgiven her, and it's not certain they will, but I do like them being her there in this moment at least for her because when you're at your lowest point like that sometimes the companionship alone is enough. Did well with her breakdown, will look forward to more
