R1 DEADLAND

[lockdownmods]

[it’s strange, for the people who were already dead, the shift in scenery is sudden and complete. For those who have just arrived? It’s like you’re back where you left?

How strange.

But if you ever need her, you can always reach out to the guardian of this place.]

I obviously don't know much about what was going on with all of that, but I mean... is the guy who was saying that stuff to you that trustworthy?

[starswink]

[Ah. There's a slight deer in headlights moment here, and then his shoulders sag. He's... got a point there.]

... guess I got used to agreeing with him.

[ ...Mm. Mishima hasn't really been sure of a lot of what he's been saying up until now, but this part... ]

Yeah, and you don't have to now. Like, maybe it's true and maybe it isn't, I don't know, but find that truth for yourself if you're concerned about it. And even if the answer ends up sucking, you've got people who really like the you that exists here and won't like you any less either way.

[Finding the truth himself... it sounds good, but Yoosung already knows how difficult it is to pull that truth out. V really was hiding something from him, like Saeran's entire existence, Mint Eye, and everyone else just kissed his ass and told Yoosung to sit down... and now, even all of that might be buried under the rubble of his bombs. Which is not to mention the fact that he can't get there at all from here. So this concern is just going to have to sit on him like a weight and make him nervous until he can force himself to just stop thinking about it, or until they can finally leave, whichever happens first. But... Mishima's right. He can't forget his support system, and that at least lifts some of that weight.]

Y-Yeah... I do. I don't think I can do it without you guys to come back to so... I hope we stick together.

[It hurts. Thinking about her... about how things turned out. But this AI existence is reality. He should embrace it with his friends, who he loves with all of his AI feelings.]

No matter what...
