"What if we found a Life player who's still alive -- or even just enough Life-aspect ghosts; the infinite series adds up to one, so mathematically speaking, infinite ghosts should add up to one living person -- and revived you?" Sollux said idly as he and Feferi sat in the rigging of Vriska and Meenah's ridiculous pirate ship, and Aradia hung upside-down in the air in front of them.

"Then I'd be alive again, but we'd still have no idea what we shoald be doing," Feferi said, nestling a little closer against Sollux's side. "I seappose if I weren't a ghost we'd at least have the option of leaving the dreambubbles and finding an active game session. I don't think there are any acshoal rules against helping other players and tagging along into their new universe."

Aradia swooped close to press a kiss against Feferi's nose. "That sounds amazingly chaotic! Sneaking into somebody else's game session might also let you two slip out of Lord English's alpha timeline predestination hoofbeastshit -- and even if it all goes horribly wrong, why not die trying something interesting?"

"Because interesting deaths are painful?" Sollux said. "Which you should know from your own experience." Feferi nodded in agreement and squeezed his fingers between her own.

"True, but look at everything that can happen afterwards. Lighten up and live a little!" Aradia said, and pressed a kiss to his nose in turn.

"We're all doomed," Sollux said, but he was smiling as Feferi hauled him off the spar.
