Don't get too excited. [ a tap of their index finger. ] Everyone gets sent home once enough nova is gathered, but that doesn't necessarily apply to those of you here.
You would be permanently trapped here, is my guess. [ they tap their finger. ] Death isn't something to take lightly just because there turns out to be consciousness after.
I mean no offense, Fox, but there is much you don't know.
[SAID. . . GENTLY, but a little fondly]
It simply means we must find the answers together. All of us-- the Leaders, and your team members.
[heehee]
And I assure you, I don't intend to act against anyone here. I accept my loss, and besides-- there is no one here I would feel comfortable raising a blade against.
[she doesn't kill kids :/ "Soo-Won is only 18" SHE DOESN'T KILL KIDS!!]
I understand. Still-- I would like to at least try.
[reaching out for a piece of paper and a crayon?? she's writing a note!!]
If this letter isn't destroyed in transit, would you please deliver this to Soo-Won? I would like for him to know that my consciousness is persisting in another dimension. However removed we all may be from the game at large.
[it doesn't take her long to write her message! it is very short and sweet: I am at your service, Master. ♥ Use me as you see fit. then she folds the paper up and hands it to Fox!!]
Thank you for your assistance, Fox.
[another pause]
And I have one more question for you before you go.
I don't think so. This dimension should be more stable, since it's not... well, you're not going to like me repeating this, but it doesn't house the living, so it's able to hold itself together better.
[she's just going to have to accept that all the Leaders think she's dead isn't she, smh!!]
[but there is a small bit of relief in her posture, her shoulders relaxing. losing the young woman with blonde hair was bad enough. she doesn't know what she'd do if she lost Irina, too]
. . . I see. I suppose, in some ways, that is a relief.
[a bow of her head]
Thank you, Fox. I understand the path here is difficult to traverse, but might I ask you to enjoy some tea with me at a later date?
After all. . . we never did enjoy ourselves together without business getting in the way.

[nevertheless, she sounds amused]
Then I suppose I'll take you up on that. [. . .] If I may ask. . .
. . . where are we?
[other than inside namine's house because this is namine's fucking house]

So you don't know the specific reason why we were brought here in the first place, then. Or why we are all very much still alive.
[SHE REFUSES TO BELIEVE SHE'S DEAD THERE IS NOTHING AFTER DEATH]

[she says that with a smile, but there's something about her body that seems to. . . tense up, underneath the polite demeanor]
I'm merely saying that "death" did not seem to stick.
no subject
[ so you're still pretty dead in some regards. ]
no subject
And how do I ensure that those who have perished, in a manner of speaking, are also sent home?
["I" and not "we?"]

And if there is "no way," as you say, then what will become of us?

[she folds her hands in front of her, and her gaze flickers away, almost thoughtful]
Rather. . . I simply choose to believe there is something positive about my consciousness continuing to persist.
It means there is still yet something I can do.
[to. . . what? collect nova? regain her memories? make sure she goes home? . . . help people? eh, on that last one]
no subject
So do your best to hang in there, I suppose. And try not to stab anyone--I don't think it would help you now.

[oh Fox]
I wouldn't say I have gotten my hopes up. Rather--
[. . .]
I am well practiced in struggling to survive. Even when the odds seem stacked against me.
no subject
[ ... ]
In any case, I should get going. I shouldn't be away from town for too long.
no subject
Already? I feel as though I have only just begun to enjoy your company again.
Is there any way you can take something back to the other side for me?

Will we still lose our memories as well?
