Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results. Shiloh felt as if a claymore or warhammer had smashed into her mind, destroying the period of silence she had been enjoying. The emotion of anger tinged with hatred was thick in the air. She was soon face-to-face with the source, who was none other than Sane. Shiloh tried to be surprised, but couldn't. Somehow she saw this coming. Probably not in the way it was currently taking place, but it still held to the same idea. As he broke down her mental walls he inadvertently destroyed the mechanisms she had crafted to keep the negative cognitions she had yet to purify under lock and key. Without her to rein them in, they began to rampage and the temporary link he had made to access her mind drew their full attention. She tried to pull them back but without her cognitive wards at full strength, they kept slipping away. Negative emotions often attracted others of their kind, and Sane's fury was like a beacon shouting for them to go over.
Unfortunately for both of them, Sane's work had managed to not only break free the rogue emotions, but it also destroyed any psychological restraint as well. Any mental filters and checks she would have had in place were now gone, leaving them both exposed to Shiloh's thoughts with no reservations. Following up the psychic attack, she felt her body's nervous system being hijacked and the excruciating pain. Her emotions swirled with turbulence, until she made eye contact with the man responsible. Instead of hate, fury, disgust, or outrage–everything on her end fell completely silent. No struggling, no outright defiance. An unnatural calm settled over her as her emotions seemingly left her mind leaving her staring directly into his eyes.
So it's you. I wish I could say I was surprised, but it seems even I'm not allowed the luxury of that. Well, I had an inkling that this would happen sooner or later. I'm sure you can hear me quite clearly in here, so there's no use in going through the motions with feigning surprise.
She listened placidly as he ranted and raved, trying to make things personal. Even if she had wanted to humor him with feeling insulted, again she couldn't. The damage he had caused on keeping her emotions in check left her emotionally numb. Remaining silent, she continued communicating mentally.
Didn't your dear parents teach you manners? When someone is being impolite, you need to respond accordingly, lest you make a fool out of yourself and something like this ends up happening. And you're right, I'm not above you. You could've just ignored me and gone off on your merry way after finishing the job you were sent here for. But as soon as you struck the first blow you've brought yourself down to my level. You could have stayed up on your high ground content with looking down on me, yet you decided to come down and get yourself involved. Are you happy with that? Probably not. You could've left with your pride intact but for some odd reason you keep coming back. Do you enjoy feeling hurt and upset? Maybe you're a masochist, what do I know? In life, nobody owes you anything and they certainly have no obligations to treat you as you wish. Respect is earned, not given. Do you think people go around, giving respect away for free?
As time went on, a multitude of other voices echoed in Shiloh's mind speaking in unison. They were the voices of the distorted thoughts she had swallowed, and with the vacuum created in her psyche they manifested simultaneously overpowering her thoughts.
Meaningless, meaningless–everything is meaningless. What do people gain from all their labors under the sun? All streams flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full. All things are wearisome, more than one can say. The eye never has enough seeing, and the ear its fill of hearing. To chase after power is meaningless, like chasing after the wind. Like oil and sand it drips through the fingers. What is crooked cannot be straightened, what is lacking cannot be counted. Everything is eventually forgotten, and significance soon loses its value. Yes, that's right. Everything you have done, everything I have done is utterly meaningless. Our state of being, our very existence. You'll forget about this by tomorrow, and it'll be like it never happened. You won't remember, it won't have any lasting impact on you. The same goes for her. Soon she'll forget and the experience will be washed away like writing in the sand. In the end all will return to the void.
With Shiloh's presence diminished, they began encroaching upon Sane through the holes in her defenses. After being suppressed and starved for so long, Sane's mind was like fertile ground in contrast to the barren prison of Shiloh's.
"When all else fails, move on to plan B. And when that plan fails, move on to the next plan."
