Right... 'Cause it sounds like she's only doing revivals for us as a favor to... someone.

We don't know who yet, though, do we?

[rollwillpowercheck]

[shakes his head.]

I get the feeling she could decide she's done at any point, too.

[we_meet_again]

Probably better not to depend on it.

Though... [he frowns, looking conflicted]



...Sometimes I feel like I would rather take a chance with her than keep playing these games.

[rollwillpowercheck]

Yeah. I know. I'd absolutely do it if it meant sparing others.

[we_meet_again]

[glances at him, a little surprised. His expression is interested, not accusatory]

...Really?

[rollwillpowercheck]

Mmhm. If I didn't have to worry about my unitmates, I've always thought that I'd immediately throw a game instead of attacking another unit.

[we_meet_again]

I'm weirdly relieved to hear that!

I feel the same way. Not that I want to die and get tortured or anything, but I'd rather do that than hurt other people.

I was worried this might be similar to graduations, though, where I didn't know enough about it to make a good decision. But you being on the same page makes me feel a little better.

[rollwillpowercheck]

I wouldn't call it a good decision, but it's at least an informed one, yeah. It's not like I want to get hurt, but I don't want to hurt others, either. And it's obviously a choice the Producers don't want us to take, so it has the bonus of frustrating them.

[we_meet_again]

Yes, an informed decision is what I meant.

I know that a visit to Lilith isn't easy or pleasant, and I know the effects are permanent. I even know that Heaven apparently won't accept anyone who's been "marked by Hell." But if it's that or forcing others to die so I can live? I feel like coping with Lilith would be easier.

[guilty smile]

Killing myself just to stick it to the man isn't the main motivator here, but I have to admit it is a bonus.

[rollwillpowercheck]

I can be really spiteful when I want to be, so that part is honestly appealing. And I do want to at least meet Lilith once, if only to get a better idea of how she fits into the big picture.

It'd be a heavy price to pay, but... so's killing in games.

[we_meet_again]

Agreed.

I don't have any plans to visit her any time soon, but if I ever do... know that it's because I was trying to make the best decision I could at the time.

And I'll believe the same for you.
