[CONTINUE + 3] Week 1 || Act: mingle

[foundationmods]

Monday comes onto the snowy town once more, though it still looks as if it's 'night' as ever.

Then again, you are underground. That's just to be expected, considering no natural light can get down here in the first place. The Monsters around you are just as friendly as ever, despite this being your fourth 'time' trying this monday.

There doesn't seem to be many Monsters here...or at least, you think there was more before? Huh.

Well, whatever.

You still have a mission - And with three trials under your belt, you're now a little closer to figuring things out.

...How much longer will this repeat?

I wonder if we'll be able to actually 'see' it, though...

It might be invisible to us. But I guess you could say it's probably worth a shot heading over there and trying out a few things.

[improbablenotimpossible]

At the worst we'll waste some time and would look rather silly for it.

[dereban]

We can't possibly look more ridiculous than what happened on Monday.

Besides... the plan here - or at least, what I want to do, personally, is try as much as I can to deviate from what the 'player' wants. And the programmer. And creator.

Whatever.

If I have to add 'puppetmasters' to that list of people I want to go against, then so fucking be it.

[improbablenotimpossible]

A puppetmaster is exactly the kind of opponent one would want to annihilate.

[he leans back, stands steepling before he closes his eyes, his head tilting slightly]

Yes - we should try to throw out the script when it suits us.

[dereban]

I don't want to kill them. Not when I don't know the reasoning behind their actions.

[She doesn't think that she can like a puppetmaster entirely, she... could potentially sympathize with them, depending.

Besides as someone who plays a lot of video games, Himeko would be considered a hypocrite otherwise.]

At the very least - I want to know why.

[improbablenotimpossible]

[He gives a pause, blinking slowly]

Yes... we should least understand why this is happening.

[dereban]

Yeah.

It's only with full understanding that we can make... a proper judgment on the situation, or our feelings. Anything before then is probably a little presumptuous.

[improbablenotimpossible]

Yes... I've been rather - out of sorts. I need to act properly.

[dereban]

[Himeko shakes her head, wearing a thin smile.]

It's okay, you know.

We're all kind of a mess.

[She laughs, something a little bitter - she knows she's a mess, too, so she gets it. Just a little bit.]

[improbablenotimpossible]

Frankly, who isn't? Nobody likes feeling they're being toyed with.

[There is a reason raging against the gods was and still is a popular topic in fiction]

[dereban]

[if endgame is just going to be attack and dethrone god I will laugh]

...Yeah.

I mean - I was already a mess even before learning about this potential bullshit. This is just the sweet cherry on top.
