week 3, monday

[midway]

[ Hello, Mizu! Welcome to the funhouse. It's gonna be a great time.

You're trapped in here with Claude, and soon enough the mirrors are going warp into something new.

—It's the training grounds in a lavish palace, and you're deadly focused on the trial ahead. ]

[purities]

[ah.

finding claude relatable is not something mizu ever expected to do, but. well. here we are.]

... You survived that encounter. Clearly.

[since, last week aside, claude is here as a whole ass adult and not as a small child.]

[midway]

[ Did I specifically engineer this? Perhaps.

He just shrugs like it no longer bothers him. ]

Maybe. Or maybe I'm a ghooOOOoost.

[purities]

[GAZES AT HIM]

Hilarious. Should I inform Anders he no longer has the worst sense of humor in heaven?

[midway]

No, please! I couldn't take it.

[ Hehe. He just shrugs. ]

Yeah, I survived. I kept surviving too, despite their best efforts.

[purities]

You dug your own grave.

[accept your clown crown...

hums.]

Did you manage to best them before you died?

[midway]

I did, once or twice. We trained together rather frequently over the years, and sometimes they gave me a beating.

But sometimes I got my revenge.

[purities]

Only sometimes, huh? A shame.

[but also, tosses a mem at you right before memshare week ends. waho.]

[midway]

[ Ah. We are Relating to each other. ]

Do you still think of yourself that way?

[purities]

[the worst timeline...]

Time can't change what I am.

[midway]

[ Thinks about the memory again. ]

So because you think all white men are monsters, you must be one too?

[purities]

It's not just the blood that flows through my veins.

[midway]

What is it?

[purities]

I'm well aware of who I am as a person, and what I'm capable of.

[midway]

That may be true.

But don't you think that's a result of the choices you made, not something inherent to who you are?
