[Okay, this has been bothering him for a really long time. Even back in his world, he didn't know the answer. So he just has to ask flat-out now, since he can't find a book in the library about it.]

Okay so.

Who the heck is Icarus?

[... Yep. That's it.]

[alae]

It doesn't sound that out of place with most of the names I know.

[chainsawn]

... Really?

[ A blink. Urotsuki, come on, not everyone is Japanese here.. ]

It's really different than my name. Or different than the names of a lot of people I know.. maybe you're just from really, really old times. Like when there were still dinosaurs. [ TOO FAR BACK. ]

[alae]

Dragons, not dinosaurs.

[chainsawn]

Aren't dragons just dinosaurs with wings..?

[alae]

... Maybe? I dunno. Hewdraw was a three headed dragon though.

[chainsawn]

.. Ah, I've never seen one with three heads. Not a dinosaur or a dragon.. [ hmmm. ] Not even in my dreams, and I've seen a lot there.

[alae]

I didn't fight him, but Pit did. Apparently he was pretty annoying.

[chainsawn]

You fight those things..? [ Okay, despite her incredibly blank tone, that sort of amazes her. Enough to stare. ]

But they're so big, right..? Wouldn't they hurt you?

[alae]

We're not exactly human.

[chainsawn]

[ She squints and leans a little closer to the terminal, towards the screen. ]

.. You don't look like a threeheaded dragon. [ Urotsuki's just jumping to conclusions because of what he just told her.. ]

[alae]

I'm not. I'm an angel.

[chainsawn]

...

[ Give her a moment to stare. She's trying to judge something here. ]

You look a little dark to be an angel..

[alae]

[...]

That's why my name's Dark Pit.

[chainsawn]

Oh.. that makes sense. Your name says what you are. [ .. wait. ] Except you aren't a pit. But you're dark. So it's half true.

[alae]

My original's name is Pit.

[chainsawn]

.. You have an original? [ She frowns a little. That's not a concept she's ever heard of.. ah, wait, there's one thing that's a little like it-- ] Do you mean there's two of you in the tower? I've heard people talk about that before..

[alae]

No, he was here before. But I was made from him.

[chainsawn]

[ Made...

From him...

She actually stays quiet for a long time at that. How do you make a person from another person?! ]

That's weird.

[ It's not often that she says that, mind you. ]
