As per suggestion over in the writing prompts thread (>>8061). I only now notice how long this turned out, that's what you get for doing five scenes in one (though I suppose a fair part of the length is owed to lots of dialogue).

The fourth scene is my first time writing a drowning, and I somehow couldn't find any sort of reference, so I hope it turned out okay. For the second and fifth one I could have written a slightly longer ending detailing the messy aftermath, but I found it more fitting to end like that and leave the rest to the reader's imagination (also I really have trouble writing endings anyways, especially for /g/ stuff).

Also in the fifth one, if some of the nihilist's rant is factually wrong or based off faulty reasoning, that's entirely intended (for the record, I share some of that perspective; a human life, and humanity as a whole is pretty insignificant, there is no higher meaning or whatever. But my conclusion is quite literally the opposite, exactly because it's pointless we should do our best for us and all others to enjoy life, there is no meaning except the one we give it ourselves).

Closing with the usual, any feedback/suggestions/etc appreciated (maybe let me know which scene was your favorite), and so on. Thanks for reading.
