When the lights go down

[nearthetop]

It's nice here. There's no dangers, no worries, food, shelter, people, and a library and computers to provide the furtherment of knowledge for us all. The Empyrean covers every level of Maslow's pyramid to self-actualization. So in theory, we should be happy here

Well, it can't be too perfect if people can still be sad, angry, or depressed... And you got hurt once, didn't you?

Those strange events, too... this place really isn't normal, ne~?

[nearthetop]

Are you content here?

[sunflowerindark]

I suppose so. But my mood still changes.

Puu~!

If Near thinks too much, Near's brain might explode~~

[soel_mekyo]

Oh no~! Puu... Near! What's 4.582 times 0.98?? DD:

Which has nothing to do with anything

What can we do about it other than try to get the hell out of this place?

[nearthetop]

That's what we have to figure out.

[virtuallydefine]

It obviously can't be "perfect" if you see a flaw with it.

[nearthetop]

It's not a flaw, though. If anything, it's a flaw in human nature.

There's a problem all of us have to solve: how to get out of here.

Where's Mello-kun?

[nearthetop]

Are we supposed to want to get out of here, though? The more I think about it, the more this seems like some giant philosophical experience.

Gone.

[fai_d_flourite]

I want to get out of here.
Good things would happen if I stayed, but I'd lose something really important to me, that's why.

Are you sure he's not just hiding somewhere?

[nearthetop]

Ah.

Oh, nevermind. It turns out he's fine, he didn't leave. He just got mauled by a wild animal.
