I know what happened. Are you happy with yourselves? Doing things when you don't even know what you're doing, or why. Look what you did... there were people suffering, children crying. Do you know how much pain you caused? It isn't right. It isn't fair.

What gives you the right? You take other people's lives in your hands! Take their choices from them. Deciding whether we should live or die for us. Do you think that we want to die? I don't. While there's life, there still hope. We should keep on living, no matter what. We should always keep--

[After this brief speech, Kariya slumps, breathing heavily. His good eye widens, and the swollen veins in his face seem to pulse for a moment. The effort of speaking has obviously taken a lot out of him. The physical and mental shock of the worms returning has taken its toll on him. He looks as if he's having trouble standing upright at the terminal. A spasm of pain crosses his face. When he speaks again, his voice is weaker.]

I need a healer--is there someone who can help?

[Voice] no problem! always happy to backtag you!

[It would never be real freedom though, but Sephiroth understands the context in Kariya's case. It must have been a breath of fresh air.]

I see. Well, I hope that you find someone to assist you with it.

[Only died twice. Sephiroth remembers thinking that himself, how he'd been only too willing to throw another one away at Ganondorf's plan, to try and gain more information that would be useful. Then there had been April...]

Be careful though, with what you wish for. This place, as you know has a habit of flipping it and returning bad fortune ten-fold.

Thank you, Sephiroth. I appreciate that. There are healers here, so I think I may be able to find one to help me.

You're right. It's a terrible place. I should be careful. I will be. But there are some good things here, too. I know that it might be an awful thing to say, but I'm glad I was able to meet the people I've met here.

Things would have been a lot different had current circumstances not been as such, that's a fact.

[....oh the things he could do with this realm.]

Take care, Kariya.

[Voice]

[vermicompost]

It's true. I wish we could have met under better circumstances.

[And Kariya still thinks Sephiroth is perfectly nice.]

You too, Sephiroth.
