[discardia]

[ Stephanie pls stop hurting yourself-- but you know what, Cardia's just going to knock on her door when she's calmed down enough and hopefully this poor soul's had a decent chance to rest. ]

Stephanie... are you awake?

How they get us to kill.

Rather, I hope neither of us have to learn.

[ she shakes her head. ]

I know you get a wish from what they [ the blotters ] told us. But... as for how they'd punish you if you don't want the wish? No clue.

[discardia]

I don't know, either. But I think such a thing probably exists.

... Because there's no wish I have that's worth someone's life.

[vigilantics]

Same here.

[ considering they cut off her leg just for not voting properly, she really does not want to see the punishment for that. ]

[discardia]

I realize that saying "let's do our best" sounds empty, but...

Let's... do our best, regardless. Maybe there's another way.

[vigilantics]

I don't think it sounds empty. It's a promise, I think. A reminder that you have to keep trying.
