[...]

Was everyone insane like this? It certainly sounds like your world was full of bizarre individuals!

[manufactured]

A fair amount of them were, but a few went above and beyond the call of either duty or necessity.

[...]

There was also the fact that no one paid Krauser or Chris to think, let's put it that way.

[scythegun]

Well I'm certainly not surprised! I can't believe you managed to say all that with a straight face!

[He's laughing now because wow? Wow. That's absolutely ridiculous.]

[manufactured]

I wouldn't say that I was one of the least insane people there by a long shot. But in hindsight, everyone else's behavior explains a fair amount, I believe.

[scythegun]

It certainly does! And I thought my world was full of insane people!

[manufactured]

My entire world was something of an exercise in why common sense is a severely undervalued trait in people.

[He sounds almost fond of it anyway? Like, it was a crapsack but apparently it was his, okay.]

[scythegun]

[That gets him to laugh.]

I can certainly see it! You don't sound like you mind all that much, though~!

[manufactured]

I don't know if I'd say I appreciate it more now, because it was all varying degrees of terrible and I acknowledge that much readily.

I do want it to be restored eventually, however.

[scythegun]

We'll do what we can, then. I want to do everything in my power to help you achieve that goal.

[He holds out a gloved hand. Can he hold your hand for a bit?]

[manufactured]

[Oh, that... You can, yes, he's fine with that.]

I wouldn't want to go back to it, even if restoration is successful. But I do like the idea of knowing it's there.

[scythegun]

[Good! He'll squeeze Wesker's hand a bit at that.]

I think I understand. I wouldn't want to go back to my world either; I'm far too attached to my life here! But it certainly would be nice for our worlds to exist again, ja?

[manufactured]

It would.

[...]

Mr. Carlisle did say something about that, as well - how we wouldn't be made to leave if we didn't want to.

[scythegun]

I'm glad. I do think it's important to restore these worlds, but that doesn't mean I'd ever want to leave. I'm really happy here, obviously!

[manufactured]

Even if it were an option, it wouldn't seem right for me to go there. It doesn't sit well with me.

[Even if the argument were to be made that unreality would have apparently destroyed the place anyway, he did give it the old college try and absolutely managed to shit things up pretty well on his own.]

Besides, I prefer my life here as well; there's nothing for me there anymore.

[scythegun]

[His grip tightens on Wesker's hand at that.]

I think I can understand.

[He's pretty sure he never tried to end the world, but who knows. Either way, he can imagine it.]

You'll always have your life here, and I'll always be here for you!

[manufactured]

[Trying to end the world is one of those things where it's surprisingly easy to not do it. Most people go their entire lives without trying to incite Ragnarok? Who the fuck knew.]

I'll be fine regardless of where I end up. As long as you're with me I don't particularly care where we are.

[scythegun]

[Oh... That really is so nice to hear...]

I feel the same way, you know. You mean so much to me, Albert.

[manufactured]

...I'm glad to hear it.

[This is nice, in a strange sort of way; unfamiliar and a bit overwhelming, but that also means that for the time being his emotions aren't completely malfunctioning and so it's just...nice all around.]

Tonight has been good, you know. I appreciate it.

[scythegun]

It's your birthday, so I'd hope it'd be nice! You're welcome, I'm glad I could help make it a wonderful evening!
