eighth prayer ⚜ video

[prayed]

[Kyoko appears on the screen. She's obviously shaken by the last pair of network posts that preceded hers, but more than that, she's really pissed off (or, more likely, she's turned her fear and confusion into anger.)]

What the Hell was that? That girl..she just ate her own companion, didn't she? She just ate him like he was piece of meat! Even though he hadn't done a single thing wrong...! What the Hell does she mean, "rotten!?" The only thing rotten here is her!

[She clenches her teeth and reaches to end the feed, then suddenly stops. She didn't really care about Dax, but she thinks, probably, he was the only one she came close to liking, but more than that? It's infuriating to see someone betray their companion like that.]

Ruana! You're watching to this, aren't you!? So why don't you show yourself already! Tell us all about how you used to pray to keep your soul while going around and stealing everyone else's. That's the real point of all this, right!? You were never interested in saving anyone to begin with!

Seriously, whatever the Hell it means to lose your Tower in this place, you deserve it! Denying people even death, stuffing them into bodies that they don't want and killing them just for fun, doing things like that to your own companions--I hope somebody years your heart and soul out, you disgusting waste of space. Nobody here needs your kind of salvation.

As for the rest of you, I could care less about what you think of this post. If you ain't got anything useful to say, don't even bother.

It could be possible, she never really had a normal childhood didn't she? So it's normal that her perception of reality is way too different than ours.

[it's not that he pity her, it's just something anyone could probably notice too.]

[prayed]

[...she will consider that for a moment.]

From the sound of it, she used to be a guinea pig like us, so I guess it's possible. So then like, all that's left to do is to completely crush ideals. That's the only way a person like that will learn.

[yougotthatwrong]

...Yeah.

[...right now, though...]

I'm not sure how we could bring her down right now, but there might be a weakness to her that we haven't seen yet.

[it's a far-stretch, but as he said to himself, he's a bit too optimistic for his liking.]

[prayed]

Then we just need to force it out of her, right? As long as we keeping pushing, we're bound to find out something.

[yougotthatwrong]

Mm, though, at this point, we'd be better off knowing more about this place first before the administrators.

[getting more details about their surroundings are better than knowing to kill those running this place, since at the very least if they know how it worked, they could operate it if it falls apart without the admin's maintenance.]

[prayed]

[That's...actually a really good point, Makoto.]

...Yeah, I wouldn't mind hearing more about this joint. They keep dropping hints about it, but they don't actually say anything useful, y'know. They're too busy patting themselves on the back about how they've got this great big rescue mission. What's stopping this place from getting blown to pieces like the rest of 'em?

[yougotthatwrong]

...Only one kid.

[Which is just bad enough of a problem as it is if he got conked out.

You know, the one where they had a whale of a time.]

[prayed]

[...welp.]

You're kidding.

[yougotthatwrong]

I wish I wasn't, really.

[Considering he was there during most of the Q&As the Admins held, even if he's just hanging around back then.]

[prayed]

Yeah, me too.

[She frowns.]

Just what is he? That kid.

[yougotthatwrong]

Well, if there's only one thing I'm certain of, it's that the kid is a psychic with a high mental prowess, but that's about as far as I can get.

...Maybe I should ask him the next time he shows up in this place.
