I'm sure most or some of you are aware of NotIgor's plans to destroy the Nexus to prevent it from resetting endlessly. And, while it is tragic, it seems necessary. Although we call this place home, it is unstable and must be stopped. So, please, I beg of you all, please allow NotIgor to lead us through the dark ages to follow. Now, does anyone have anything else to say?

*Gamma walks into the forum, laughing while he slowly claps*

Oh I have so many things to say. But we'll get there in due time. First question. Why the hell should anyone here believe you about any of this? You just run in claiming we're in some terrible cycle and we're supposed to side with you? That's presumptuous at best, foolish at worst.

I'll tell you a reason to believe me! And the truth is, you shouldn't. The only thing you need believe are your own morals. All I ask is take this threat of war seriously!

*Pops in*

But it's not something to keep making topics about?

*Pops out*

War is important! It should be the 'topic' of many political debates!

*Pops in again*

But this isn't a country?

*Pops back out*

*Gamma grins and walks away*

That's all I needed to hear. I'll take it seriously alright. You'd better watch your back.

Exactly! It's that lack of political structure that brings us such discord! NotIgor is the kind of leader we need.

Especially because he makes good plots.

I'm sorry but I've never met this NotIgor. But talking about the end of the world and the need for social reform is usually something people only do when they're afraid.

So tell me, what about this place scares you and your leader so much...?

*Pops in once more*

But again, this isn't a country. It's just a forum.

*Pops out once more*

Well, what isn't scary about everything we've ever known never having existed?

A forum that's in a country, moron! In fact, do you know how much tax we have to charge to build this place?

*Sayaka looks down, shaking her head. It seemed like everything was happening so fast. Yesterdays events were fresh in her mind, but she's had more time to think. She raises her head and looks at Mona*

As long as we'll be safe, as my loved ones will be safe... Then NotIgor can do what he wants. Life changed all the time. While my memories here are treasured, I will keep them in my heart and whatever new world comes, I just hope it is one where I can continue to be free to be myself in...

Can you promise me, Mona-chan? That when this is all over, we can stay together, and we don't have to change who we are?

*Pops in x4*

Yeah but... it's still not a country.

@Dietman_Yukimura
Also hi Ardyn

*Pops out x4*

Heh, no matter the world we're in, we're still the same people, aren't we?

Um... I could look up how much taxes you paid. But being a cat it's likely zero.

And as for everything we've ever known never having existed.... I suspect more people here know that pain than you know.

That's why I intend to reform the system, to make the government of the Nexus work for everyone.

If we live in it?

Well, ya know... Destroying the Nexus could stop the resetting. But I'm not ready to leave this place behind. Even if it creates problems, it still has let me meet so many new people... and I've changed so much...

I'm not going to just sit around and do nothing. I may try to stop NotIgor, but there may be a third option. An alternative to Law and Chaos...

@Cait_Sith are you implying... we destroy everything!

Destroying the nexus has no difference to me. Just that we get to live our lives. Then again, I have none.

No. If there's one thing that's an alternative, it's change. Just like that King of Bel created...

But I don't wanna get older!

First of all, he was just a prince, and a fresh one at that!

You're right, Mona-chan... We are. No matter what happens, we'll be friends. Nexus or not. Nothing will change that.

*Smiles and pets Mona* And if there's any new fish in the new world, you'll be the first to try it.

Wrong Bel, my dude. Anyway, you wanna go Law Route? That's fine with me. And I guess those who want to keep the status quo are Chaos Route.

But me? I'm sticking with Neutral and a chance to change the Nexus itself. Best of luck, and may the best path win. *He holds his paw out for a pawshake*

Shit, I didn't know the internet had countries. Welp, looks like I'm getting deported.

*Aitome walks in, still in his thief outfit, crossing his arms and looking ticked off before speaking in a low voice

How can NotIgor assure our safety? Hes already spilt blood in order to achieve his goals, namely Black Mask, how can he be in everyones interest when he kills a fellow resident of this place? This is a cult, there is no proof of the Nexus resetting.

Well, whether the Nexus gets destroyed or not, I'm fairly certain I'll hate myself either way. Nexus survives, "they'll" still be here, polluting us. Nexus dies, it'll get harder for me to keep up the act of being a trap.

@Aitome_Korichi don't be fooled, that was all on Yu. NotIgor can't control everyone completely. Besides, she spilt first blood.

@AdachiImouto heh, then it is decided.

... Are we really going to put everything into the hands of an animal?

Yes. Don't question it. He's a good sleep enforcer, which means he should also be good at this...

Right, a band of cultists ganged up on a defenceless girl, she didnt want to join them and they killed her, in cold blood, if NotIgor had her interests in mind it would have never gotten that far, you fail to convince me why I should follow the leader of a cult.

Sometimes bloodshed is necessary to achieve a goal.

So it's a cult then? Well that explains quite a lot.

He won't go that far, Teddie Anon. That's why he'll fail.

Call it what you want, just know that you can't draw a sword when you don't want to die.

He may not go that far, but i will if the need arises.

While that is true he said himself he said he had everyone's interests in mind, especially the civilians, how can that be true when he doesn't mind killing one cause they don't want to join him?

Quite obvious really. All cults are destined fail. Well, this no longer requires my attention.

Because he needs to set up an example.

*Cait sighs* Well, if ya wanna talk with me about alternatives, I'll just... be over here...

Well, they died because they got aggressive.

*walks to the forum*
I agree with Cait. We could at least try to come up with another way.

I have one more question, Mona-chan.

Do you know anything about the guys in SS uniforms? I mean, I would chalk it up to cosplay... But in the Nexus at a time like this...

See? He gets it. *He pats Bona* Welcome to the Neutral Route, my dude.

But knowing him he'll just teleport out any problem, Cait.

*He sighs.* Have you ever had the thought that it probably is far beyond saving?

What is one life compared to a civilization? Just think of what would happen if Yu didn't step in? Others would be hurt by Migrant, most likely. Face it, she would rather keep a world for sentimental value if it means killing everyone else.

Well, at the very least, we can try changing it. If that fails, feel free to nuke the place, Ted.

@AdachiImouto I have no idea what SS means, unfortunately

If the vicious cycle doesn't end then it'll end itself eventually, with results that may not be pretty to think about.

And who says that NotIgor wouldn't do the same? Sounds like he could kill anyone just to fulfill his goals, Cait has the right idea, why should I follow you?

Oh boy. The lives of a few don't matter? Well shit, sucks to be a good person then.

The guys in the uniforms. Nazis.

...You know what? I'm just gonna sit back and eat some fatty tuna. Kinda the same things over and over here. *He waves a can* Anyone want some?

It's such a hard choice. I dunno how to follow. Both of them are really cute.

*who

I mean I would've liked the pacifist route but whatever. Also how the heck are you petting me? You know what, Eff it.

Because this "Nexus" isn't stable, we could minimize on the killing if you don't try to stop us.

This just makes me wanna go to Candyland. So much arguing.

Nazis? Sounds german. Probably not important

Basically, I'm aiming to change the Nexus into a stable form. Ya can help me out if ya don't like Nazis, nya. *Noms fatty tuna*

*He sighs again.* I appriciate the noble cause, but the Nexus might be beyond saving at this point.

If you plan on dying, it would be a lot easier for us if you die peacefully

So you admit to killing people... this just proves your no better than us, you just put yourself atop of a pedestal, calling for however will join that blood cult of yours, well I don't buy it, the next time you had better stay out of my way, I'm not letting this blood cult take over the Nexus..

*Aitome then turns, scoffs at Mona before walking away,

It's very important. They have... A history.

And... I am confident Migrant is still alive. I wish to save her as well. She is embraced by the broken brilliance. She is family to me.

I mean
If good people should die then I'm just gonna die. Not like people have those pesky things called feelings.

I'm still with ya Cait! *pets him*

We will only kill if needed, if people didn't get in our way, no one would have to die.

No one ever said you should die...

Awlfully nice of NotIgor to invite us over to a stable reality, eh, everyone?

You're kinda saying that right now. But not like the lives of a few matter right? That only people who agree with you should live?

I understand you're still bitter about Migrant's death, but they were in the way and they got aggressive, it was the only solution.

Actually I'm not take this seriously at all. Why is this tagged RP?

If I kill a serial killer i'm just as bad, right? Because I killed someone?

People have their own ways of justice, if that justice is killing then so be it.

@bluehairedemo i asked her the same question at discord, he never gave me an understandable answer.

Blue Hair, if you aren't serious then why the hell are you here? In a forum, of all places. It's meant for serious discussion. And, to me, the threat of war is dead serious. And what the fuck is RP?

It's really not my problem if you wanna stay in this doomed reality trying to make it stable.

Fair enough, Ted. You wanna topsicle? There's a stand just outside selling em, so I grabbed some, nya.

Yeah i would, all of this has got me really tense.

Also I got one of my friends to join us cait.

Nice. And here ya go. *Gives Bona and Teddie topsicles*

Huh. Cool. *eats it* He even made a base. Well it kinda already existed but still.

Thank you. *He slowly eats the topsicle, savoring the flavour of it.*
