And so, people leave us. Their role has ended on the stage, as it were.

[ He's back in his little corner of the library... the Compass is still there, he finally has his glass of wine back, and there's a new book open on his desk. ]

I am curious. What does one have to do to be sent back to our own worlds? How is that decision reached by our... caretakers here?

[And here's one sleepy looking April who blinks a few times, before saying in the flattest tone she can muster:]

They pull names out of a hat. [A pause, before her expression turns curious.] Though seriously, I'm not sure. But I'm guessing it's a random process.

Is there a way to determine what that process is?

[ Someone didn't get enough sleep last night. That must not be fun, for humans. He didn't even need to sleep, though sometimes, even he felt the need to relax for a while, just like Yeshua did. Though his idea of relaxing was mostly reading a book, sipping wine, and listening to Wagner. ]

[April thinks she's been too busy to sleep, thanks to all the work she's made herself do.]

Not as far as I know, nope.

Very well.

[ All he says. He goes right back to staring into the Compass, unless she wants to keep talking. He doesn't shut the terminal off. ]

[And the thing about April is that she's a natural chatterbox when she's feeling talkative.]

... What prompted that question?

I am simply curious how they choose who does or does not stay within the Tower. Do they consider this person a threat to them, personally? Are the experiments with them failing? Or are they satisfied with the data they have gathered from the collars?

Hmmm... [April tilts her head and thinks over that.] Yeah, it is pretty curious about how and why they choose who stays and goes. Especially since there's a pretty big mix of people here.

Absolutely nothing, from what I can tell.

How disappointing. Then perhaps there really is no method to their madness. A play without a script.

Perhaps, although there's nothing wrong with a bit of improvisation.

[Although at this point Lucifer still doesn't believe there couldn't be a reason. There is, after all, a method to madness. To Chaos.]

Given the wide variety of actors upon the stage, I would say they have a purpose in bringing us here. What I do not understand is why some are sent home, while others are not.

[ Wilhelm knows all about order and chaos. Just not here. The Compass is annoying uncooperative in this place. ]

Perhaps it truly is whim.

I would say perhaps they have a limited amount of space they might use, but I think that isn't the case. And if it is you'd think they'd show more wisdom in their practices of bringing people here.

I believe they are performing a semi-Darwinian experiment of survival of the fittest. They bring weaker specimens here to test their ability to survive amongst less savory types.

... There's a way to go home..? [ she blinks, trying to think about it. ]

But they said our worlds were gone, right? I thought the people who left just went.. somewhere else.

I do not believe that is the case.

[ Let's just say, Wilhelm noticed they overlooked a few details from his own world that wouldn't make sense if his universe was destroyed, now that he's seen a few of them here. ]

Huh? So.. they're lying?

[ it's as if she thinks it's natural for them to just have told the truth on those letters. ]

Is it truly so shocking that people who could keep us in such a place might not be honest with us?

But.. they said they were trying to help us. They did.. [ .. she pauses, thinking back on the time in the pods.. ] .. some bad things, but.. I thought it maybe had a reason.
