The Villain’s Stare Bored Itself Into The Hero Relentlessly And The Hero Felt - As So Often - The Crushing

The villain’s stare bored itself into the hero relentlessly and the hero felt - as so often - the crushing weight growing heavier. If it wasn’t for the villain, they’d be dead.

“I don’t know,” the hero whispered. Their voice was hoarse, completely breaking apart. “I’m sorry.”

“I didn’t ask for an apology, I asked for an explanation.” The villain wiped some dust off their clothes and took in a deep breath. Unlike the hero, they were untouched, perfectly healthy. However, also in a scarily bad mood.

Usually, the villain wasn’t as serious as they should have been. So, this was surprising. The villain had never saved the hero.

“I don’t know,” the hero repeated. They put their head in their hands, grabbed the roots of their hair. “I’m sorry, but I don’t know.”

“Think, then.”

The hero looked up.

“I feel like I’m at a point in my life where…where I’m standing still. I can’t go forward. And if I do move, I go backwards and then, I come back to the same point. I…I don’t know what I was thinking, I knew this mission would be dangerous. I didn’t know it would be suicide. I’m, fuck, I’m…I’m stupid.”

The villain’s brows furrowed.

“Alright, enough.” They raised a hand as if to silence the hero. “Your personal problems don’t concern me, but I can’t save you every time you’re in trouble. Ruins my reputation.”

“I’m not asking you to save me.”

“It’s not much of a choice when you look at me like a sad puppy.” The villain sighed and kneeled in front of them. “You dying would kind of ruin my day, so I’m trying to avoid that.”

The hero buried their face in their hands, squeezing their eyes shut until they saw stars. They were aware that something was wrong with them. Admittedly, they didn't know if they had always been broken, or if this had developed during the last months of saving people.

Somewhere within the hero, they knew this part of them, this unlovable part they were so ashamed of, this sick and weak part that made them crumble and decay, destroyed them from the inside out. Often the hero imagined it was a tumor they could cut out of their flesh, they wouldn't even care if they'd hit bone with the blade. But it was etched into their soul and that could barely be fixed.

A sweet relationship that had turned incredibly bitter, a friend dying in front of them, their noble view of the world changing radically - all of it had tainted the hero in a way words could barely describe.

The hero didn't feel like they could see colors anymore, their taste was dull, they had become lazy. And in their mind, they were the most undesirable, most pathetic, most detestable person in the entire world.

They felt the tears, the usual stinging in their nose and eyes.

"You do know that I don't have to save you, right?" the villain asked.

"Yeah," the hero said, wiping tears away. "I get it. I'm grateful for your kindness. I'll repay you somehow."

"That's not exactly what I meant," the villain said. "I meant that you're perfectly capable of saving yourself."

They bit their bottom lip.

"I get it, some days suck. Some weeks suck. Some months suck. But someone as competent as you cannot be this reckless. Do you think you're unable to overcome what you're dealing with? You out of all people?" The villain tilted their head and let out a long sigh. "If I was cruel, I'd tell you to join me because I can make your life better. But sadly, I don't have all the answers either. And I want you to truly believe in my goals and understand me as a person."

Their eyes fixed on the hero's lips but they looked away quickly.

"Just do me a favor and don't get killed," they said. The hero closed their eyes and took in a deep and shaky breath.

"I will try."

"Good." They felt the villain's fingertips brush their arm, but when they opened their eyes, they were alone.

"Get off of me."

"Is it weird I'm comfortable?"

"Jesus Christ how did we manage to fall asleep like this?"

"How the hell did you wrap your leg around me?"

"You've been laying on my arm all night and I can't feel it."

"I would've moved to the floor but you were using me as a pillow."

"I almost fist-fought you last night when you took the blanket."

"I have to pee so bad please get up."

"I don't think I'm going to be able to look you in the eyes after this."

"You snore. Loudly."

"I do not snore, you liar."

"We don't have to talk about it, just get dressed."

"It's too early for this, we'll talk about it later."

"I don't understand how I slept so good last night."

"Let's keep it professional, alright?"

"Don't get confused, I was only clinging to you because you stole the blanket and I had no other way to keep warm."

"We're not going to bring this up ever again, right?"

"I slept really good last night." "That makes one of us."

"My arm is still asleep."

"Did you know you talk in your sleep?"

"How did the blanket end up on the floor? No wonder I was freezing."

"Go back to sleep."

"You're the only source of warmth in this stupid hotel, come back to bed before I get hypothermia."

My win-win way to get into the void state

I consciously (!) entered a state of emptiness three times. Here's my way.

(The post is gradually being updated.)

Preparatory stage

Usually I don't prepare in any way. I just do this before bed when I'm tired after a routine day.

You know that kind of fatigue when you’ve been walking for a long time and finally sit down or lie down, and your body seems to start melting like butter in the sun? I'm talking about such pleasant fatigue.

Main stage

Having made myself comfortable on the bed, I began to relax my body and mind, but not fall asleep. Next was a guided meditation. I tried just saying affirmations, but I still like it better when the voice from meditation guides me.

And the most important thing that always allows me to enter the void state is that I fully concentrated on the voice from the guided meditation. I didn’t even fully realize what exactly they were talking about, the main thing was to listen to this voice and music and not be distracted by anything. If there were wandering thoughts that I became aware of, I immediately returned my attention to the voice from the meditation.

Final stage

Usually, at the 10th minute of meditation, I already felt the pre-void symptoms. But I still continued to concentrate on the voice from the meditation. And… boom! I'm in the void state. In this state it is very calm and pleasant, but soulless, or something... After I said my intention or simply relaxed in this state, I came out of it and “woke up” in the desired reality.

URB: Details here.

Q & A 

What kind of meditation was I listening to?

A simple guided meditation for deep relaxation. I usually choose a deep female voice because it calms me down more. But I don't have favorites among specific meditations.

URB: Detailed answer here.

How did I manage to relax but not fall asleep?

I simply concentrated on the voice from the meditation, so my brain was constantly working while my body relaxed. This is the main secret to accurately get into the void state.

What did I manifest?

I'll write about this later!

Here is the success story of a wonderful person who decided to share it with me.

This is my experience. If you have questions, ask!

some more silly squabbles and arguments for your otp to get into

a prompt list by @novelbear ᵔᴥᵔ

"i didn't buy these coasters for nothing! use them."

getting annoyed when they decide to wash dishes right when the other gets in the shower, making their water cold unexpectedly

"do we seriously need all these lights on?" "uhhh, yeah."

"turn your music down. i can hear it blasting through your headphones, that's dangerous." "oh, it'll be fine..."

arguments over the way the heater/air conditioning temp is set

when they figure out they do laundry veryy differently (like whether or not they separate colors/whites, how they fold, how often laundry is done, etc.)

one setting off the smoke alarm somehow everytime they cook something (this actually happens in my house save me)

^ "it's got to be something you're doing! because when i cook, this doesn't happen!" "i'm telling you, it's sensitive! broken! something!"

"don't set the air conditioning too cool. you just got out of the shower, you're going to make yourself sick." "oh my god i'll be fine."

^ then they argue and bicker more so when they do end up getting sick like their partner said.

"where did you put all the spoons?" "in the drawer to the left." "why would you do that."

one taking too hot of showers, leaving the bathroom steamy and little to no hot water left.

"do you realize you slam like every door that you close?"

being shocked that they eat something in a peculiar way (like the whole how to eat a kitkat debate)

"oh my god, please don't take another water bottle out until you finish the last. i'm finding them everywhere."

"look, i don't know what you're doing and i don't think i want to, but clean the mirrors."

Thought #240

Villain punched at Hero, who dodged it gracefully.

Hero ran away from them and froze. "He did not just do that to you." They yelled.

Villain looked at them confused. "Who-"

"No." They yelled, throwing up their hands. "What a bastard."

Villain walked up to them. "Are you talking about me?"

Hero waved them off. "Girl, get out of that relationship. He doesn't deserve you."

They threw up their hands again. "I have some stupid thing right now, but I will be over after this."

Villain pointed to themselves. Hero nodded and waved them off.

"You better have broken up with him by the time I get there." Hero nodded. "Yes, I'll grab ice cream."

Hero said goodbye and turned to Villain. "Can we hurry this up. I've got a friend in crisis."

"What did he do to her?"

Hero rolled their eyes. "He cheated. Multiple times."

"Oh hell no. Let's go help her out of this relationship. You get the ice cream. I'll get the wine."
