You've got a lot more faith in Nut & Bolt than I do.

They'd be stupid to treat it the same. [ he does agree there! ] But that doesn't mean they won't do it. This place isn't run the same way as stuff back home.

[psynchroneyes]

... Well, I'd like to believe they have some reason.

[teenrebellion]

[ he gives a half-hearted shrug. ]

Guess we'll find out before long. They can't keep us in the dark forever.

[psynchroneyes]

It's been hours. These things take time, so... I'll wait a little longer.

[teenrebellion]

I wasn't expecting an answer immediately. [ ... ] Jingu-san was right, though. They should've said something. Even the police can do that much.

[psynchroneyes]

Mm.

Must've caught them off guard even more than it did us.

[teenrebellion]

Yeah. Apparently they were surprised, too. Some of the others got stuck with them.

[psynchroneyes]

[ just. a nod. ]

I can't give them too much crap for fumbling a little. I doubt this is something that happens a lot.

[teenrebellion]

I doubt they'd be so gung-ho about this job if it did. But there's seriously something messed up going on for this to happen at all.

[psynchroneyes]

Let's be real—it's been messed up from the start.

[teenrebellion]

Some of us have been saying that this whole time.

[ and some of you have been bitching about it. ]

[psynchroneyes]

Yeah, I know. Some of us more than others.

[ you. ]

[teenrebellion]

[ looks away sulkily. ]

I'm just used to things going badly by now.

[ he'd hoped it wouldn't be like that here... but of course it let him down. ]

[psynchroneyes]

[ ... ]

Yeah? Why's that?

[teenrebellion]

Terrorists have a habit of ruining everything.

[psynchroneyes]

... You—said you were from Tokyo, right?

[teenrebellion]

Mm. Shinjuku.

[psynchroneyes]

Is it a big thing?

[ she's very ???? as she doesn't recall any terrorists ]

[teenrebellion]

If you haven't heard about it, it's probably another multiverse thing.

[ just saying. ]

Shinjuku's been on lockdown for months because of Adonis.

[psynchroneyes]

Huh...

And who're they?

[teenrebellion]

Adonis.

[psynchroneyes]

Obviously. If you don't want to elaborate, just say so.

[teenrebellion]

[ the way i completely forgot my own tags and didn't bother backreading. it's fine kazuki can be a sarcastic little shit i guess ]

The terrorists? What do you want me to say? I don't know any more about them than anyone else - just whatever they broadcast.

[psynchroneyes]

They ever spill their motivations or whatever...?

[teenrebellion]

To remake society under their sense of justice, more or less. [ waves his hands. ] Exposing people's "sins," judge them, and punish them, all starting with Shinjuku and then the rest of the world.

It's just a self-important excuse for killing people wrapped up in nice words. As if anyone hasn't done something wrong in their lives.
