Greetings,

Did you know he was dead?

-K.S.

[transmittable]

who would you be referring to?

[crywiththesaints]

I recently recalled the real reason that profile listed me as the CEO of Martel in practice as well as theory. Suzaki Shuuichirou was captured and killed by Guardian's hunters. Given that he was one of the hostages on the feed the week before I learned this, you'll have to forgive me for having my suspicions.

[transmittable]

oh, him.

like many things, it's knowledge i can recall, but also knowledge that i put away when it's not needed. think of it like legal documents in a filing cabinet. i didn't know he was dead, but i did, at the same time, as long as i took a moment to recall it.

[crywiththesaints]

So your memories are a little like a file system. Convenient for your handlers, I suppose.

[transmittable]

yeah. something like that.

[crywiththesaints]

Is that why you couldn't recall which of us was whom, at first?

[transmittable]

there was that. everything was also very foggy.

i feel like there's something i should ask you, are you assuming because you remember suzaki's death, he couldn't have been real before? because let me remind you, exhibit a: ostentatious.

ostentatious was definitely dead before being brought here.

[crywiththesaints]

Assuming, no. Keeping it in mind, yes. I'm not one to jump to a single conclusion, even if I might tell the rest otherwise and see what they do with it.

[transmittable]

okay. good. you don't really seem the sort to, but it's always good to double-check. make sure we're on the same page.

[crywiththesaints]

Really, if the Key were anywhere near whatever reality this is, I'd have half a mind to activate the Song of Destruction and bring this planet to the ground. Of course, this isn't my world or my rules. Whatever does happen this week, though, I should like to find out.

[transmittable]

yeah, i know. if you had your way, i'd be dead a long time ago. i get that.

[crywiththesaints]

...Why you personally?

[transmittable]

i would have thought that would be obvious. your captor and all that.

[crywiththesaints]

You'll notice that this lot isn't much for normal or obvious things.

[transmittable]

yeah okay but the point still stands. why WOULDN'T you want to kill me?

[crywiththesaints]

You may want to ask somebody who doesn't want to kill anybody. There seem to still be a few in here somewhere.

[transmittable]

i have. i've talked to a lot of them, actually. what i'm interested in right now is you.

[crywiththesaints]

I actively want to end the world.

[]

[transmittable]

[ A pause. ]

alright. so that's where you're coming from. you don't take any personal stake in all of this?

[crywiththesaints]

No more for you than for anybody else in this twisted place.

[transmittable]

you're "enlightened" because you've reach a point past caring. is that it?

if that's the case, maybe you'd be better at running this whole thing than i would.

[crywiththesaints]

Further into the Peak of Existence than any before me, yes. At least any who kept themselves together. Far enough that feelings are essentialized to meaningless chemical reactions.

Your superiors would seem to prefer somebody they can puppet, though.

[transmittable]

will or intelligence means nothing to them, enlightened.

[crywiththesaints]

Wouldn't that mean that anybody is viable?
