[ he nods slowly ]

Yeah, that's what I meant. If it was just my life, then I'm here anyway. But for it to cost someone else's...

I can't help but feel a little resentment.

[ktiseos]

Really, it could have least been the one person we are certain has already saved theirs.

[he is maybe, you know

not going to be at all sad if diluc shows up here, it's just practical]

[shaft]

That would be smart.

Though I genuinely don't know if they're given a choice.

[ktiseos]

...I shall have to hope not.

[shaft]

I would hope Dimitri wouldn't choose me.

... Though I do tease him quite a bit.

[ktiseos]

I suppose I could understand why one might be briefly tempted, but it does seem as if it shouldn't be the case.

[shaft]

You could understand...?

[ HEY... ]

[ktiseos]

-I am not being serious, Claude.

[shaft]

Too soon, Emet.

Or, ah, Emet-Selch. My apologies.

[ktiseos]

...I would tolerate it, I suppose.

[claude can have emet rights.]

[shaft]

I'm touched.

[ genuinely. they're... friends! ]

Did you have a listen to the record?

[ktiseos]

[friends... emet-selch is an idiot who will never know they're friends unless claude says so.]

I did. Unpleasant, is it not?

[shaft]

It sure is.

I don't know what it's doing here though. And what it means by "our friend"? The cannibal, maybe?

[ktiseos]

Most likely, I should think. Though the mention of... despair tasting sweet seems cause for concern.

[it's always fucking despair he's sick of it!!]

[shaft]

It's pretty sadistic.

Unless... I don't know. There is something else to consume us. Like at the Station.

[ktiseos]

There had better not be. I refuse for this to prove a common thread between our experiences.
