You can try as much as you want chip, but you're not going to bring me down. The view is too nice!

...In a way. I'm sure it could be.

Oh... Who am I trying to fool? How is everyone else doing?

Doing just fine! I'm glad you're trying to keep an optimistic view.

[alitany]

And I'm glad you're doing fine! It's not so bad, when you know you're not the only one. Even though I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

[mrbaseballfan]

Yeah.. I wish people were feeling better from that darn thing. I've had mine out for awhile. Needed my powers to help everyone!

[alitany]

Everyone will feel better eventually, I hope. That was nice of you! What kind of powers do you have?

[courageous_dog]

Um, I haven't gotten chewed up for an entire week? That's good enough for me!

You're right to not let all this dampen your mood! There's plenty here that... yeah okay, this entire city is horrifying, but there's always an upside. ...Somewhere.

[alitany]

Oh! That's good... I hope that continues for a while!

This city isn't so bad in some ways. Everyone's free to do what they want, even if there aren't that many choices. It has some hope for it. I don't think we would have been brought here to just suffer. People just need to try and get along more!

[dreamermoa]

There's actually a lot of nice people here....

[alitany]

I think so too.

[dreamermoa]

...I'm Moa! It's nice to meet you!

[alitany]

Oh...my name is Aerith. It's nice meeting you too!

[deathpapa]

That's a good way of looking at it.

[alitany]

It's a little hard, but I hope it's worth it.

[invisible_ai]

That a good view to have, Aerith.

I wasn't doing very well before, but now I'm relatively calm.

[The sound of a piano playing can be heard in the background.]

[alitany]

I'm glad to hear that, Ai.

You play beautifully!

[invisible_ai]

Ah, the compliment isn't really necessary, Aerith. But thank you all the same.

[alitany]

You're welcome.
