ten paintings burned (and one girl lost)
[He awakes, and his head is still swimming with thoughts of useless inventions and painted roses and ferocious queens. It takes Garry a few seconds to realize that he's back in his room, and dressed in what seems to be a full suit of white armor which he definitely does not remember ever being in his wardrobe, ever.]
[But then he remembers riding a horse, and talking to people as if he knew the entire strange world on the back of his hand, and it all comes back. That...that dream was all real, wasn't it? And he had behaved as if he had lived there the entire time...]
[After checking his blue rose is alright, he heads right over to Rapunzel's room. Of course he would. She had been there too, and he couldn't wait to have an amusing conversation about how they both acted there, and how silly he looked in this armor of his, and how beautiful she was, no matter where they were, until he's realized that he's already in front of her room.]
[It's a blank door.]
[Oh, well...that's odd. He knocks, frowning slightly as he tries to understand what it meant. And he knocks again. And again. There's no answer, so he goes and opens the door because he's suddenly feeling the fear rise up in his chest like bile, and...]
[No. No no no no no. NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO.]
[...No, wait, this isn't what it looks like, this has got to be the wrong room, he thinks as he goes back into the hallway. He just chose one of the empty rooms by mistake, he probably wasn't thinking straight about the whole thing after his experience in Wonderland. Garry feels a nervous laugh bubble out of his throat. Hahaha, this was just a mistake on his part, silly old Garry, silly old him...]
[And after a few minutes of walking up and down the hallway, he sinks to the ground against the wall, his legs no longer feeling like they want to walk anymore. He's taken his journal with him, he realizes, and after a few seconds, he opens it, not even looking down to see what the rest of the castle is up to.He doesn't care about that. He doesn't care about anything right now, except...]
[The voice on the other end is unmistakably Garry's, but this time, it sounds broken. Hollow. An odd sort of state for someone who usually seems full of so much life.]
She's gone.
[There's a sharp intake of breath, and a few quiet mutters of "god god god this can't oh god", before there's another period of silence. And then he begins again, but with more difficulty this time:]
R-r-r-...she's left. Ra-rapunzel, she's no longer here...
[A shuddering sigh.]
Just wanted you to know.
[And with that, he's closed the book and thrown it harshly against the wall. People will find him sitting against the wall in the hallway, looking rather ridiculous dressed in his white armor, head buried in his hands.]
[Is he...sobbing?]

Re: dictated
[Because he doesn't really sound ok, and tbh she didn't even know they knew each other, I don't think.]
dictated
She was my girlfriend. So yes...we were close.

[He doesn't sound like he'll be okay. The last thing he wants is for people to worry too much about him.]
Just in the hallway near her door, if you want to drop by.
==> Action.
[And she is - not that she really knows what to do. Being comforting is not really her area of expertise. But she shows up from the stairs within a minute or two, nonetheless.]
Garry?
no subject
[The slightest smile appears on his lips, though his gaze is anything but happy. More broken, honestly.]
Hey.
no subject
... What's with the armor?
no subject
[He's almost forgotten about it, but he then recalls and just gives a nod, mouth quirking up again in that small smile of his.]
Back in Wonderland...I was the White Knight. I helped people with my inventions, and I didn't even recall my time here...it was definitely interesting, to say the least.
no subject
I didn't know you were an inventor.
no subject
I didn't either.
I mean, I think it all was natural when I was there, but here? All of those ideas are gone...

Sorry!
no subject
[He stares at her, unsure why she reacted like that. What's up with that?]
Oh, really, don't apologize!
But honestly, like I said, I don't remember much about how to make things anymore. It was just for the role and that's it, I think...
no subject
Ah... I guess that makes sense. But you still know how to make dresses, right? And those are things.
