[MEMORY LOG] Memory #4
Hiding out in the storeroom fort and reading. (pre-game, offscreen)
FROM: Heart games.
FORM: a rose made out of edible gold flakes
SHAREABLE: 3/4
- As a kid, Richard would escape down to a secret fort he made in an unused storeroom in the basement of the castle whenever he felt overwhelmed. We don't actually see this in game, but here's how Richard describes it to Sophie:
Richard: Here we are. Hmm... This brings me back. When I was young, I was always surrounded by people. Sometimes I wanted a place where I could just be alone.
Sophie: So you built a secret fort?
Richard: Right. I was going through some tough times, and when things got to be too much, I'd come down here.
Sophie: What did you do?
Richard: Sometimes I'd wrap myself in a blanket and eat apples until I wanted to pop. Sometimes I'd read silly adventure stories. It calmed me, somehow. Gave me the strength to make it through another day.
- Mostly this just confirms his impression that life in the castle is anxiety-provoking for him and kind of sucks.
++ BOOKWORM. He's probably always going to have a book checked out from the library now. Even the trashy stuff. ... maybe especially the trashy stuff.
