You have to send me back, please- I can fix this, maybe they're not all dead, maybe I haven't destroyed everyone yet, but if I'm here then I can't do anything!

Please.

[She flutters her wings uncertainly. It looks like she's been crying.]

Technology. All the food is synthesized. Natural humans even need special supplements to breathe the air.

[ audio ]

[oforder]

Synthetic food?

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

I don't really know how they make it. All I know is that the only place life exists naturally is on my body. That's why they built a city there.

[ audio ]

[oforder]

[ This just gets more and more interesting. ]

What do you mean, 'on your body?'

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

My real body is about a thousand meters long. This is a projection, though... I'm not really sure how I'm projecting it with my real body back home.

[ audio ]

[oforder]

[ ... the fuck. ]

You have a 'real body?'

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

It doesn't look very much like this one.

[ audio ]

[oforder]

Do you care to elaborate?

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

It's a really, really big plant. It kind of looks like a fish with wings. If I had some paper I could draw it, maybe.

[ audio ]

[oforder]

How fascinating.

[ Despite how deadpan his voice his, his body language indicates that it is sincere. ]

You are saying that you have two bodies at once?

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

Uh-huh. The big one is my original body, and then this is a body that I created from people's thoughts.

[ audio ]

[oforder]

From people's thoughts, you say... then, you appear exactly as how they wish for you to appear?

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

Right. I'm glad they made me like this, it could have been much worse.

[ audio ]

[oforder]

How so?

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

Would you want to make something that could have killed you look pretty?

[ audio ]

[oforder]

I suppose not.

[ Case and point: KOS-MOS and T-ELOS. And in some ways, Kevin. ]

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

But everyone's thoughts were beautiful and pure.

[ audio ]

[oforder]

They were? That is fascinating. Clinging to hope, and optimism, when their own planet is gone.

Humanity was always best known for its tunnel vision, even when they fixate on only the positive.

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

I don't think pessimism would have helped, though.

[ audio ]

[oforder]

It is not pessimistic to accept reality.

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

Giving up hope?

[ audio ]

[oforder]

Hope is irrelevant when you already know the future.

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

Nobody can know the future. There's a tiny chance that you will draw a white marble from a bag of one white and countless black marbles.

[ audio ]

[oforder]

I know the future.

[ audio ]

[heavenscorpse]

Really?
