[ one day I'll learn to pay attention to plurk. anyway, punches you. not roxana, ara. ]

Not yet—not until we know we're done for sure.

[ i am just a small lad who's canon familiar, wow!

She takes a sip of her drink. ]

That's a realistic way of looking at it.

[ It's not chastising. It's how she usually views things, so she doesn't think he's wrong. ]

But it's leaning towards it more than not.

[bestaround]

That's the general feeling, huh? I mean, I hope that's true, because I'm getting tired of this place.

[disingenuous]

I'm sick and tired of this place, too. I'm ready to leave it behind.

Are you going back to your war, 9S?

[ if everything works out and goes as planned. ]

[bestaround]

[ hmm... ]

I don't plan to, but I guess we'll see what happens.

[disingenuous]

Did someone offer you a new home?

[bestaround]

Ugh. It's complicated.

[disingenuous]

[ Oh, dear. ]

I'm willing to listen.

[ But she won't press. ]

[bestaround]

[ ... ]

Alright, fine. Someone did, but I can't actually go with them.

[disingenuous]

[ It's not like she can't understand that. ]

You can't, but do you want to?

[bestaround]

If I could, then... yeah, I'd do it.

[disingenuous]

What's stopping you?

[bestaround]

They don't want me to.

[ ... ]

Like I said, it's complicated.

[disingenuous]

[ ... ]

That seems a little counterintuitive.

[bestaround]

[ He waves a hand, dismissively. ]

Maybe, but don't worry too much about it.

[disingenuous]

[ Hmm.... ]

All right. What next, then? In an ideal outcome.

[bestaround]

Is a hypothetical scenario supposed to help?

[disingenuous]

Yes, because you don't get anything done not thinking about it.

[ don't let dreams stay dreams. ]

If you think it'll only give you false hope, I don't blame you, but... if you can believe enough in how the Prism works, it's a little less than hypothetical.
