So it's... i-it's all over. Everything is.

But is it really... better now?

I still hear people SCREAMING. Are they just in my Hell? In my head?

Or are they r-really out there?

...

It's quieter now. I think I like it w-when it's quieter.

Then I can think. Think. How I want.

Yet... for some reason, I'm n-not sure what I want to think... now that I can.

It is good to see you well again, Herr Crona.

[timid_dementia]

It... you...

Y-you're glad? That I'm better?

...

[Chrona smiles softly to himself, though such cannot be translated over the communicator]

[7th_warrant]

You are her precious one, after all. I would not want to see you miserable.

[timid_dementia]

You mean... N-Nill...?

...

So... a-are you her friend? I don't think we've ever m-met...

[errolflynnrawks]

It? They?

Hmmm...This sounds pretty serious mein freund. Is there anything I can do to help?

[timid_dementia]

Ah-- w-who are--

You're BLUE--

I... I-I don't know. A-a lot of things happened... so many things it made my head hurt. But at least people aren't dying a-anymore...

So I think... I'll b-be okay. But... thank you f-for caring...

Who are you, blue-man?

[errolflynnrawks]

Ich bin traurig! I forgot introduce myself.

I am Kurt Wagner.

What is your name?

[timid_dementia]

I'm... C-Chrona. B-but... what did you say? Before you i-introduced yourself... I d-didn't understand.

[followvoices]

You can hear them?

2/2

[timid_dementia]

You... y-you're...

...

Y... yes. I c-can. All the time.

[followvoices]

I can still hear. but the voices are muffled. Static and interference if it wasn't so dark I could see again.

[onesizebigger]

Huh? Chrona's here too?

What are you even talking about? You're so weird!
[Laughter]

[timid_dementia]

Ah--! I-it's that gun-lady... who was with the stripey Shinigami-san...

[fearful squeak]

She d-doesn't understand, either... of course she wouldn't, s-she laughed at me... and hurt me...

[onesizebigger]

[More laughter here]

What are you talking about~? We're friends now, remember?

[timid_dementia]

W-we... we are...?

Everyone I know... s-says that...

What should I think?

[embracethewaves]

Mm...I like when it's quieter too. At least no one's going on a murderous rampage now, right?

[timid_dementia]

Y... yes.

It was... horrible. Really...

I hope it d-doesn't happen again soon...

[embracethewaves]

Oh...yeah, it was.

Hey, let's do our best to keep it from happening again, okay? If we all try to protect our friends, I bet it'll make a big difference!

[timid_dementia]

Protect...

I... I don't think I c-can... I can't even fight. How could I stand up a-against anyone threatening...?
