This whole set up 's sourin' the entertainment industry.

Six weeks to survive and not get possessed.

[ ...he looks away at that. it's not his fault, but it still kind of stings? ]

Maybe we'll get lucky and more people will come back to life?

[battling]

[he doesn't know your backstory]

Think we'll get lucky, what... how many different games are here?

Even if they do come back- the pain of losin' somebody, of watchin' 'em die is real.

[dms]

I'm not sure. A bunch of them.

...I know.

[battling]

[He picks up one of the gems and holds it up.]

At home, death is final. The most you can do is hold onto a ghost.

[dms]

It's the same where I'm from, too. So... even if people do die here, even if it hurts, I'm grateful that they can have a second chance.

[battling]

We don't know that there is necessarily one. Haven't found anything like that points to that, yeah? No notes from the dead?

[dms]

Not yet - at least not that I've heard. But it took ages for us to hear from the dead in the prism, too, so it's not that surprising.

But it is something that every place had in common, right? Just like people dying at all. So I think that's a good sign in favor.

Near the fifth week before we could get anything to go through.

They did call it a "entertainment". Considering some of the assholes I know back home, that doesn't guarantee anythin'.

[dms]

I think it was somewhere around there for us, too.

...Maybe not, but it's something for us to aim for, anyway. Something to hope for, you know?

[battling]

You're optimistic.

Don't hate that in a guy.

[dms]

Someone has to be! As bad as things might get, it'll only be worse if everyone starts to give up.

[ keeping everyone's hopes up might be all he can do, but that's fine. ]

[battling]

I'm too stubborn to give up, even when shit gets bad.

[this is why nero threw him in jail]

[dms]

[ ...he laughs. ]

That's probably a good thing! That helps keeps spirits up, too.

[battling]

Hahaha, being stubborn's a skill.
