Threads discovers PC

RS, ATML, TOB

RS:

…so what do we propose? Find a substitute for rarefaction cells?

TOB:

I don't think there is any time...

ATML:

I’ve heard of those small beasts who can procure such items, but likely not to an extent where we can use them for the repairs of such high damage.

RS:

…

TOB:

Even my void fluid systems would take too long to get operational if I had the ability...

RS:

I see.

Though I think I may have found some that are...unused...

@Threads of Benevolence (@real of yam) - jump

I must ask… what did you mean by this?

TOB:

I found a...local source of them...

Structurally intact and...

RS:

oh! That’s good news.

Where, may I ask?

TOB:

I...

When I was investigating your can during the attacks I...found something...

RS:

oh…?

TOB:

...Iterator ruins...right next to you...

Is there something you haven't told us, RS?

ATML:

…

RS:

…

…What. Are you planning. To do..

If you tell me you’re planning to scrap his remains, you can leave right now.

TOB:

Revising...

RS:

No.

TOB:

We are running out of time, and out of options as well.

RS:

I'm disgusted you would consider that.

I’m disgusted with you.

TOB:

I'm...I'm sorry...

RS:

You leave him alone. RS is clearly holding back tears.

TOB:

Who...were they...Revising?

RS:

…YOU HAVE THE AUDACITY TO ASK HIS NAME NOW?

TOB:

Please...

ATML:

Revising, please calm down…

RS:

NO! SHE WANTS TO DESECRATE HIS CORPSE FOR SCRAP!

ATML:

She wants to save your life.

RS:

If you get near my brother, I will rebuild myself, and I will send everything I have to kill you as welll. Do you hear me Threads? DO YOI?!

TOB:

I...I can't help you without their help...Revising...

...your...brother...?

RS:

…y-yes… my brother… RS can be heard whimpering at this point

…dont… don’t do it… Adrift don’t let her…

TOB:

...

Adrift...Revising...

ATML:

…

Revising. I’m sorry. I can’t stand in her way.

TOB:

...

RS:

…Adrift…. NononononoNONONONONONONONO

TOB:

I am sure he was close to you...Revising...

RS:

…

you say that

but then you want to scrap him for parts

TOB:

I...

...would he want you to go out like this...?

RS:

…

ATML:

Listen to me, Revising

I know you were close to him. I know you two loved eachother. But were he in your situation, you would want him to live.

RS:

…

…I…

I can’t…

ATML:

He would want you to live too. He wouldn’t want you to go out like this.

TOB:

And...and we can't let you die...

I...I don't know much about siblings...I know...

But we must do what is best for each other...even if it hurts...

It is what my people often had to do...

RS:

…

TOB:

...you...you know of Pebbles and Moon...

RS:

…yes

TOB:

I am sure she would do anything to help her brother...even in her state...

RS:

…

TOB:

...

Once I can make more rarefaction cells I can...

Put them back...where they belong...

RS:

…it doesn’t matter… he’s gone… they can’t power anything anymore…

TOB:

...

RS:

it just

doesn’t feel right.

TOB:

I hope you will...understand...why we need to do this...

RS:

…i… I don’t like it…

TOB:

...

ATML:

…I’m sorry. But we need to do this. For you.

TOB:

I...I know...

But there are no other options.

RS:

…

…t… t-take.. the cells… RS is fighting back tears with every word. D-do it… then… for him…

TOB:

...Alright...

I will take care of them...

ATML:

…We’ll make sure damage him as little as possible. We promise.

RS:

…th-thank you… for that…

ATML:

Don’t thank us. It’s the least we can do. We’re going to help you out as much as we can. We’re here for you.

RS:

…

I miss him…

ATML:

…I know you do. He’s gone, and he would want you to be safe…

TOB:

...It is okay to miss those you care about...

RS:

…I wish he was still here…

be tried to revive him…

nothing worked…

TOB:

...He is still in your memories...at least...

It isn't the same as being in the cycle...but it still matters.

RS:

…right…

…i would ask if you could help me build him a new can… but that impossible… it wouldn’t work…

TOB:

I...I don't think even having my department online would allow me to...

RS:

… I didn’t think so…

TOB:

There are certain aspects of our construction that even we don't know of...

ATML:

…I’m sorry, Revising, that just doesn’t seem possible…

RS:

…I know….

TOB:

The knowledge went to the void sea...as everything does in time.

RS:

…I still do not wish to discuss that accursed sea…

TOB:

I...I hate it too...

But that does not mean we cannot honor him...

RS:

…how?

TOB:

You could have eliminated the memory of him...but you haven't.

RS:

It wouldn’t be right….

TOB:

Holding memories of him, and how he was good...that is how our people did it.

RS:

He was already the responsible one…

he always cared

TOB:

The memory crypts are a still standing relic of these acts.

RS:

…you have my permission to take the rarefaction cells…

ATML:

Thank you, Revising.

TOB:

...It will not be in vain...

RS:

…thank you…

TOB:

You mentioned that...your slugcat is back...right?

RS:

Yes.

TOB:

I have my own to send to him...but he is only familiar with my own can...and needs an extra set of hands.

Or...whatever sprouts out of your slugcat...

RS:

…RS talks with Eldritch for a moment. He says he’ll help.

TOB:

...Alright.

RS:

I am sorry for my outburst.

TOB:

My collector and a guard of mine will be able to keep Eldritch safe on his journey.

...No...it was reasonable...

I should have conferred with you before planning to do this...

I was just worried that you...wouldn't want to be helped...

RS:

…I want to be helped. Im… scared.

TOB:

...It will be okay...I am sorry if I scared you with the...diagnosis...

RS:

…

it is alright

TOB:

You are going to be okay, alright?

RS:

Alright.

thank you for your kindness.

i… I need to go…

goodbye both of you.

ATML:

…Take your time.

I wish you well, Revising.

RS:

You as well. I wish you well TOB.
