week 2 monday - private convo (akane)

[perceptions]

[After she finishes working on her little project, she'll be going to look for Akane around Yuggoth. If only they had damn phones in this place. Where will she find her murder pal?]

[She nods, a little unhappy but understanding.]

That's fair. I just hope it doesn't come to that.

[perceptions]

I wish I could hope like you. [Mira doesn't have a very rosy outlook about how things are going here, given all that has happened so far.] What about you? Not thinking of taking a knife to anyone?

[18x0]

Of course not!

[She's thought about it a little.]

Even if I was willing to murder someone, doing so would just be giving our captors what they want!

[perceptions]

Yeah definitely. I mean though, it's weird. We don't really know what they want, do we? They want so many people dead, but why? Even Zero had some kind of bullshit to tell us about why we were trapped in DCom.

[18x0]

Presumably there's some kind of strange mystical reason behind it all. Some elder god that requires sacrifices, maybe.

[perceptions]

[She snorts.]

Yeah, maybe. And maybe a snail is actually responsible for killing six billion people, right?

[18x0]

No, not the snail. Zero is the one responsible for that.

[Though Mira did help, so there's that]

[perceptions]

I was being sarcastic, Akane. [she doesn't know if akane didn't get it, or if she did the sarcasm wrong. socializing is fuckin hard :/] Personally I think the elder god thing is bullshit, but I don't really believe in higher powers.

[18x0]

I'd assumed that beings like that were nothing but fiction, but everything we've seen here indicates otherwise.

[perceptions]

It's hard to be sure what to believe in. [She huffs.] Well if you're doing alright, I think I'll be on my way. I just wanted to make sure nothing bad has happened to you.

[18x0]

Well, you found out. Thank you, Mira.
