manifesting me dying

It was only one, really, but it caused a lot of drama. The person who was eaten was very cross about it.

... Wouldn't you be?

[she has to think about it.]

Well, if they ate me after I was already dead, I don't see why it would bother me more than being killed in the first place.

... Was he dead?

I believe so, yes. He only found out he'd been eaten after the fact, and then he sent us nasty letters about it, implying the culprit was someone we all trusted.

But most of us didn't, we just liked Shi Qingxuan... The moral of the story is, you can be a real psychopath so long as you come to the murder center with a pretty and nice girl who will vouch for you.

. . .

I don't know if I'd call that a moral instead of just a fucked up fact.

Well, that's because there's no such thing as morals in real life. Everything is just a fucked up fact.

Not interested in the whole "good vs evil" thing?

[ like. he says this but he agrees avalanche is all assholes with dubious morals ]

I didn't say that. There is right and there is wrong, I simply don't believe things are wrapped up in neat little lessons for us.

... Yeah. Things just... happen. Most of the time any reason behind it is some asshole made a choice.

Precisely. [a sigh.] We're responsible for our own choices, of course, but the idea that there's anything really to learn from all of this...

I'm learning to hate hotels, mostly.

[ dry. ]

Ah. Yes. It is not much of a vacation, is it?

Something about this place makes it hard to relax, yeah. Can't put my finger on it.

Likely it is simply because there aren't enough rooms available to explore yet.

Right. Can't wait until the next hallway doors a floor up. That'll be relaxing.

One of those doors will finally have something good behind it.

Yeah, the answer to all our questions is hidden behind one of them. Just keep opening more doors until you find it.
