Not everyone here is fake. I know for a fact that we are real.
[Bazett looks even more awkward than usual dressed in her drone husband's suit, which is a little too big for her. Plus, she had pulled two consecutive all-nighters between being droned and then piecing together her notes.]
No. I was created to help them overcome a darkness that would destroy their world, yet none stepped up and that world was snuffed out anyways. Perhaps all humans are now fakes in my eyes. A mockery of what could have been were one with the appropriate courage available.
[She is not sure what she can say in response to that. How did you try to comfort someone who had lost their entire world?]
Perhaps...there was a purpose to the destruction of your world? My superior always said that whatever happens in life, whether for good or bad, always has a purpose, even though sometimes the purpose is unknown to anyone but God. And at other times, it is not for us to judge whether some event is good or bad because what seems good can actually turn out to be bad, and what seems bad can actually turn out to be good...
[For some reason, she thinks that her words will probably not be of any help.]
Humanity simply chose that it wished to self destruct. I know that my master had an open contract for one to stand up and stop this, and I know that none did. While other realities had contractors to stand up and do so, mine did not. To exist as an attendant to one who has not the courage to life.... Humanity as a whole has little designation other than fakes.
I was the attendant. The master said dreams were sent to all who had a spirit that could, yet none answered. None wished to be held accountable for their own actions.
[The fact that a world has been lost through inaction is tragic. It is more tragic when her words hit so close to home. Because of Bazett's own inaction in her dreams, she had almost lost her allies. It is only slightly less painful to know that she had only lost her memories.]
There was a time before now when I would have told you that you are wrong. I would have told you that I, at least, would have fought.
[But she had not. When she had been offered the choice, she chosen the coward's route and allowed the girl named "Rin Tohsaka," who she can no longer consciously remember, choose to bear the burden. She had chosen to let that girl, as well as others, be forgotten by the town and then receive nothing but spite as a reward for their sacrifices.]
Now I know better. Perhaps, it is as you say--the people who are actuall "real" are gone, at least in our memories, and it is us "fakes" who remain.
I know not what this town does, or why it breeds those who's souls scream out fraud or genuine. I ceased to care about such trivial things long ago. Perhaps some great source of oblivion will be awakened to devour this place as well, it is not as if its so called defenders care, and I can see for certain that the inmates would in many cases welcome that.
[Bazett looks even more awkward than usual dressed in her drone husband's suit, which is a little too big for her. Plus, she had pulled two consecutive all-nighters between being droned and then piecing together her notes.]
It is just the town playing games with us again.

Are you a human?

[Just her disheveled, half-insane look is enough to set her apart from the drones.]

...Even if we are just what you would call "fakes."

[What did she have waiting for her back at home beyond missions?]
But we would never be able to confront our destiny or break out of the routines if everything was to be destroyed.

Yes... There is that.
