Route 1, Chapter 15: Red and Black
Several hours later!
I just finished relating the story of Tsugumi's Incoherent Adventure to Sora.
We came here to look for alternate foods, and found some!
Beyond that, conversation is meandering.
So!
Sora does too, actually.
Cliche choice is ideal choice!
>Let's both say it at the same time.
And GO
Well, then!
RETURN TO OPERATION WHAT IS LOVE
We can both agree that Sora's new speech pattern experiment was a total failure.
Regardless, she wants to know more!
I might be getting into the professor role a little too much.
REGARDLESS, I have a plan!
We are now on opposite sides of the glass, making Sora functionally identical to an actual, physical person, since I wouldn't be able to touch her anyway.
APPROACH THE GLASS
I SHALL BESTOW UPON YOU THE COLOR OF A TRUE WOMAN
Yeah this is harder than it looks.
NEXT WINDOW
Yeah, this is pretty pointless.
No more ridiculous makeup drawing, no more playing professor.
It's just an illusion, but I could swear that I can feel the warmth of her hands through the glass.
The barrier between us is the closest we can come to physical contact.
If I close my eyes, Sora disappears.
But just for this one moment...
...?
Where am I?
WAKE THE FUCK UP
May 5th Friday
Der erste tag
It's just past 3AM on the 5th day!
We're running out of time down here. Not sleepy after that dream, so let's wander.
Tsugumi's gone again. Gone still? It's getting hard to keep track of the lady.
Terminals in here are inaccessible due to maintenance right now.
Nobody here.
The maintenance notice ends with a little note from Sora. She'll be back!
Maybe the elevator started working at some point?
>Push the button.
Yeah it obviously doesn't work and HOLY CRAP SOMEBODY'S HERE
Oh it's Tsugumi again.
She seems normaler than usual! Actually asking what I was doing here.
Just a little hilarious.
Tsugumi asks if I know what Qualle is?
What the fuck even is.
>I don't know.
Oh right, the gondola ride.
The totally functional, probably awesome gondola ride.
HELL
THE FUCK
YES
Tsugumi already took a gondola ride with her pet hamster!
Thus, she knows how to use this thing.
Why are you not being a sociopath, it's kind of weird.
DEPARTURE IS NOW
Nice view in here!
Tsugumi wants to confirm something. She feels like she's losing her mind.
If you cut a piece of yourself off, like a nail or a hair, does it remain you?
It's related to the question Sora was contemplating before.
Uh.
If I took off your arm, would you be there in the arm?
What if I took off your leg?
Or if I cut your torso away?
Or even if I took out your brain?
I NEED AN ADULT
Where is the self? Is it in the mind?
But the mind's self is just a collection of memories. What about someone like Kid?
Every cell in my body is different from the me of five years ago. Am I still the same person?
As Tsugumi talks about how the self is nothing but a packet of information, she starts to apply more pressure to my throat.
It's getting hard to breathe.
Then she moves my hands to her own throat.
I'm dying.
The message is clear.
If I don't kill Tsugumi, she'll kill me.
And that was when her lips closed with mine.
