[In most cases, the Major would have kept the information he had received from Evan Olney upon his death. But the fact of the matter was that the Major was also a notorious gloater, and to be able to wave the information he received in the faces of others was simply too tempting to resist

That's... [ Disturbing? Frightening? Something to make her question her identity even more than before? ]

--that can't be right.

[sturmbahnfurher]

Can't be right?

Or you don't want it to be right?

[notsogreatwall]

W-well... who would want it to be right? That sounds horrible. [ Trying to muster her confidence, and failing. ] I am who I am!

[sturmbahnfurher]

Who said anything about wanting it to be right?

Well said! More should think along your lines.

[notsogreatwall]

They should! [ Though she sounds uncertain. Meiling doesn't hear that a lot... ] I mean, I've never heard of anything like that in all my long life.

[sturmbahnfurher]

I suppose that is just part of the lesson that no matter how long one might live, one will always learn something new, hmmmm?

[notsogreatwall]

I think you have a point. Otherwise, it'd be pretty dull over the years. [ Though she sounds about in her 20's. ]

[sturmbahnfurher]

And yet? The longer you live, the more you learn how to amuse yourself, I've found.

[notsogreatwall]

Aheh, that might be true, but you have to be careful. It used to get me knifed in the head in a lot of trouble...

[sturmbahnfurher]

And yet, there can still be quite a bit of entertainment found in trouble.

I would far prefer trouble to boredom.

[notsogreatwall]

I don't like being in trouble. Especially trouble this place causes for us...

[sturmbahnfurher]

Oh?

I've quite enjoyed it, I must admit.

[notsogreatwall]

...that's kind of a sick thing to say. There's nothing enjoyable about the way I acted toward my close friends, or what they've been through.

[sturmbahnfurher]

Oh? And yet, can you fully blame the town for that?

However you might have acted....part of that must have been in you, to begin with.

[notsogreatwall]

No! [ Quite firm on that. So much so that, she stands up when she says it, which isn't seen, but heard from the way the legs scrape against the floor as it's pushed away. ] I don't believe that! I would never--!

[sturmbahnfurher]

And yet you did.

Will you truly blame your actions entirely on the town?
