If you can't imagine something worse than that, then it's probably for the best.

[fallbymyhands]

You're probably right.

[closes her eyes, and shakes her head]

What sort of organization do you work for? Can you tell me what its ultimate goals are?

[backspacing]

It's...a little difficult to categorize them, actually. You could say they're 'doing good for the sake of the world', but given how large the organization is there's bound to be a few people in it for themselves.

[fallbymyhands]

[??]

Of course. That's just how things are. But do you mean to tell me that they're doing this for a supposed greater good?

[backspacing]

Supposedly. But you can see why I question that at times, yes?

[fallbymyhands]

Absolutely.

[Lilith was KILLED BY A MOOSE, after all]

I can't imagine what greater good is achieved. . . through this.

[backspacing]

If you make it to the end, you will understand.

[fallbymyhands]

. . . I would like it for everyone to make it to the end.

Is that possible, Red?

[backspacing]

No, it's not.

[fallbymyhands]

[. . . of course]

Is there-- a way to cure people like Zaberisk?

[backspacing]

Not that we have ever found. Once they're like that, they're like that permanently.

[she feels her heart sink at that. and yet, in the back of her mind, she also finds herself asking: what would Jesus Arisato do?]

[he had found a way to win the unwinnable fight against Nyx. he wouldn't have stopped just because no one else had found a way to cure people like Lilith]

Just because you haven't found it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Correct?

[backspacing]

It's possible there is a solution. But as I said, the people I work for have not found that solution.

[fallbymyhands]

Then all we must do is be better than the people you work for.

[wow that sure sounds shounen]

[even tho she isn't shounen at all]
