Migrant
Nexus General Hospital
OOC: Seriously this place gets so much business between us supers and the normies we kinda forget exist.

-------------

IC:
*Mig was transported to the nearby hospital after the incident in the Void. She still wasn't conscious, and doctors were examining her for what all was wrong....*
Itsuki_Aoi
Migrant...
Robin-K
*Robin followed shortly, hand still firmly holding the orb as he eyed Mig, concerned*
...Is she going to be alright..?

Aitome_Korichi
*Aitome sits outside, meditating on a chair as he awaits the news, keeping calm as to not panic, occasionally however he mutters to himself
Migrant
*A doctor eventually comes out of the room and talks to Ai and the rest of the group*

"Well... the good news is it seems both her and her child are fine health-wise. It's quite likely the stress and the pain caused her to pass out. She should come around in a few hours.

As for her wound, well we won't know how bad it is until we get her in for x-rays, but it seems likely she damaged the bones in her leg along with that stab wound. I can't say for sure how long her recovery will take right now..."
Itsuki_Aoi
So, what exactly happened to cause this injuries to Migrant?
Aitome_Korichi
Well she's alive and thats what matters, I'll be taking my leave as this place makes me... very uncomfortable... send her my regards,

*Aitome then leaves swiftly, uneasy at the doctors and the white walls,
AdachiImouto
I see... I will remain here. I need to speak to her when she wakes up.

*Looks to Itsuki, and down again*

...Yu Narukami did this. It was an ideological dispute. I need to ask Sister Migrant her side of things.
Itsuki_Aoi
Yu Narukami? Hmm... *Itsuki looks distraught*
AdachiImouto
Indeed...

It will be a few more hours, so I will take my leave for now. I shall return when she is conscious. I remembered, I need to see someone...

*Sayaka exits the hospital*
Migrant
*Good news, everyone! Migrant woke up! She's laying in her bed looking rather distraught, though...*
Aincrad_Hazel
Aincrad walks in and sits down on a chair besides Mig. "Hey Mig, how are you feeling?"
Shaigis_Unit02
*Shaigis quietly walks into the room, but realizes Mig has already woke up*
Oh, you're awake already....
That's good, I had hoped you weren't too out of it from last night's little fiasco.
Migrant
Yeah, I'm awake now...

*she sighs*

How did everything get so completely out of control?
Itsuki_Aoi
Chrom: *Nods towards Itsuki* Itsuki.
Itsuki: Migrant!?
Shaigis_Unit02
*she sighs*
Unfortunately, I don't know all the details.
What I do know is that my original form is dead for the moment, but as long as her core is safe, she'll be able to return eventually.
Migrant
Huh? Idol Boy?

*She then snaps back to Shaigis* Wait... dead....?
Shaigis_Unit02
She got roughed up pretty badly, so she decided to go out... With a bang. Of course, if I was in the same situation, I would have probably done it as well.... Especially for someone I care for.
Migrant
Y-you're kidding me.... right....?
Shaigis_Unit02
I really wish I was....
Because, with her dead, the real Aigis is probably feeling the unfortunate side effects of it. Her psyche has more than likely taken a massive hit, and her negative emotions will be more prominent for a while.
Migrant
All because of me....

*She seems even more down now....*
Gabentheholy
SOMEONE HELP I'VE OVERDOSED ON REDBULL
Shaigis_Unit02
*A look of concern suddenly appears on her face, and she shakes her head*
It's not all your fault, she made the decision herself.
Plus, it obvious you weren't there on your own accord... Someone obviously has it out for you, and I'm not going to let them have their way.
Chan-Kun
Do you have wings? If not then you can kindly take care.
Migrant
Hmm.... it's probably someone related to /that/ group...
Shaigis_Unit02
So it's a group huh?
Well then, this just got interesting.
Migrant
Depends on if it's realated to them. *she looks down at her bandaged and still leg*

Yu, and that detective....
Itsuki_Aoi
*Itsuki stands in a corner*
Shaigis_Unit02
Ah yes, the truth seeker....
I had a high opinion of him, but it seems I am destined to be disappointed in him.. Very disappointed indeed.
Migrant
I thought he cared about his friends, but I guess not. And truthseeker, hah, he falls for every single person who can claim to show him evidence. He's no truthseeker, he's just another endless fighter.

*There's heavy anger behind her voice, even shaking a bit by the end.*
Jeffy
What's up, motherfuckers? I just got a pencil stuck in my ass so someone better motherfucking remove it before I shit myself.
Shaigis_Unit02
*gently grabs hold of one of her hands*
Please calm down, the stress isn't good for you, or your child.
Migrant
*Takes a few breaths...*

I know.... but I'm stuck in here for who knows how long, while Yu is out there trying to destroy the world...
Shaigis_Unit02
I wonder what's gotten into him...
This just seems off, we're obviously missing something.
Migrant
It's because of that buff German with a book.

How anyone could fall for that I don't know, but those two fell for it. And another person... she's a Phantom Thief, one of the original ones. Iron mask, scarf, punches stuff....
Mona
Ooc: I like how you don't recognize Mona being there whatsoever.
Mona
Ooc: I mean being part of NotIgor's plan
Migrant
OOC: Weren't you out talking to the group outside the door most of that time?
Shaigis_Unit02
Ah... It's Makoto, I believe.
But, regardless, I doubt it will be that easy to destroy the world.
Itsuki_Aoi
*Itsuki shouts in shock of Migrant's words*
Itsuki: Destroy the world!?
Chrom: I wonder why they would destroy this world? Perhaps, judging from mirage presence, it really could be unstable?
Mona
Ooc: I mean, I directly interacted with Migrant a lot, too.
Migrant
I'm not entirely sure how they intend to do it, but apparently they want to do it by destroying the Nexus' core...

All because it's "unstable" and potentially going to collapse and restart itself.

So, naturally, they decide the solution is to destroy everything. *heh* I swear nobody is sane anymore here...

Why can't we just, I don't know, fix the Nexus?
Itsuki_Aoi
Itsuki: Well, it will do no good to jump to conclusions or guess without any real leads. If there really is any way to fix this "Nexus", I think we should try to find it before we decide to stop those who wish to destroy this world.
Shaigis_Unit02
I doubt it's going to collapse on itself... The core has been restabilized quite a few times now.
Plus, if it was, we should at least be seeing some effects of it by now.
Migrant
Well.... there are some of the kids....

But I mean, if there's a way to destroy it, there must be the opposite.

Not that I can help you find it, you guys are going to have to find it on your own....

I'm kinda stuck here....
BonafideMonafide04
*walks in*
Mig.... Thank gosh you're safe.....
Shaigis_Unit02
I've already decided to confine myself here as well... If they struck at toy once while you were weakened, they more than likely will try again. I'm not going to let my own sacrifice be for nothing. I'll stay by your side, until you believe you can fend for yourself.
Shaigis_Unit02
*at you
(how do you even change that to toy auto correct*
Itsuki_Aoi
And... about this Yu...
He sounds like he thinks what he is doing is right. War is war, either side he picked he'd have to end up hurting his friends. That's why I try my best to avoid such conflict, but...
*Itsuki sheds a single solemn tear*
It seems this time it's unavoidable. I only wish I got here earliar, so I could've experienced all the joys this world has to offer. *Itsuki nods solemnly* Perhaps, it's just for the best I came so late. After all, whatever side I pick, I won't have any friends to fight against.
Migrant
Thanks Shaigis... but don't go killing yourself over me. I'll be here for a while.

I doubt Ami would like that.

Besides it's not like I can go after Yu.... if I'm stuck in a chair...

And hey, Bona.
BonafideMonafide04
......im sorry......
Shaigis_Unit02
I've technically already killed myself over you, so we've already crossed that threshold.
And I doubt Ami would be happy if I just let you get kidnapped again, so you're stuck with me as a bodyguard for a while.
Migrant
Hmm.... alright then....

I wonder if anyone else agrees with me on this, or if they're all chomping at the bit to destroy this place and go home.

I've already watched a home get destroyed.... I don't wanna do it again....
BonafideMonafide04
Wait, mig. Me and a couple of buddies are trying to find an alternative to destroying the nexus while still stopping the resetting.
Itsuki_Aoi
And... try not to be so reckless. It doesn't matter how strong your opinions are if you aren't alive enough to share them. Jeez, your like Touma...
At the very least, at least seeing you get injured will draw people in.
Migrant
*Looks at Bona and Itsuki*

It seems so....

I mean like I said, I can't really help, but if enough people are willing to stop this maybe the Nexus still stands a chance...
Akamoto_Shinji
Ooc yo mig can you tell everyone on the temple I won't be there today

Forgot my phone at home
Mona
Ooc what's the temple?
Bgammax
OOC: Its a discord group Akamoto and others spend most of their time on now.
Mona
Ooc: oh, so it's exclusive shit?
Migrant
OOC: Done and done.

It's not really exclusive, it's just.... well the subject matter is kinda touchy (and outright against the rules for the site) so it's not like we advertise it much.
Mona
Ooc: oh, so is it something I can join?
Migrant
*MEANWHILE! In the hospital! Mig was re-reading old newspaper articles about the last several months....*
Jeffy
*Jeffy walks up to Migrant and speaks*
Um, what doin'?
Aitome_Korichi
*Aitome walks into the room, extremely on edge, watching his back at every second, at the slightest noise almost drawing his sword, checking the door trying to lock it before speaking

Hey Black Mask, you doing any better?
Shaigis_Unit02
*sits in standby mode not far from the hospital bed, ready to fire away at a moments notice*
AdachiImouto
*Enters Migs room, bearing a relieved expression that Migrant is okay. It doesn't take long for the chuunibyo to kick in*

Sister Migrant! Your assured is proof that the 7 dietys have protected you. Your broken brilliance was not to be denied!

...Sister Migrant, what happened the night you faught Yu? The night you disappeared? Mona-chan told me the gist... But I want to hear your side of things.
Migrant
Well I'm stuck in here while they decide how bad I'm messed up.

Apparently it could be as simple as needing to let my bones heal and the stab heal, or it could be as bad as....

*she trails off, looking rather distraught over the worst case scenario, just staring at the newspapers...*
Jeffy
Well, hoe, I got a diaper full of Golden Nexite that will heal that wound right up.
Migrant
*She perks up upon seeing Sayaka, though.*

Oh, Sayaka! I guess I'm just happy to still be alive, considering everything that night...

Yu.... I don't know what's happened to him but.... honestly he's not the same Yu I remember anymore. He doesn't seem to care about truth, or even doing what's right. He's just out to fight things now... he's just like Tatsuya.

But what did Mona tell you?
Aitome_Korichi
*Aitome draws a sword at the people barging in, before putting it away with heavy breaths, trying to calm himself

Sheesh... It's only you guys... damn I hate hospitals... but more importantly, now that your safe, I also wanna learn what happened back there, especially in that darkness zone...
AdachiImouto
*Sits on the foot of the bed*

Brother Tatsuya is a brother... Do not link him with Narukami.

And... Mona-chan said that, if we don't destroy the Nexus, it will die along with all of us. If the Nexus is destroyed, we'll go to a new world. Similar, but different. We will still be together.

If that is the case... I want to protect the one I love no matter what. Even if it means saying goodbye to this world. I won't forget my memories here, ever...
Migrant
*Almost as soon as the phrase destroy the nexus comes up, Mig's stare goes distant.... she doesn't even seem to hear the rest of Sayaka's statement.*

No, no, we can't do that....

I don't want to have to go through that ever again... I've made too many memories, too many friends, too many places I could never find again....

I don't want it all to disappear again....

*she practically rocks her upper body for a moment before seeming to come back around*

What happened with Yu... that's right.... well, their boss tried to tell me the same thing, and... I did what anyone would do who isn't detached from the concept of home... I tried to stop them.

Yu stepped in and tried to demand I join them, that Phantom Thief did too. The detective just said they should kill me.

Then Yu stabbed me.... but not before I got a hit in on him I'm sure he'll remember.

And then all I remember was not wanting this place to disappear... and not wanting to disappear myself... and then the next thing I knew I was floating in and out of consciousness in that darkness...
AdachiImouto
Sister Migrant... Do you mean that our memories will disappear? If so... I don't want that. I don't want to be the girl I was in Sapporo again...
Aitome_Korichi
Hmm, well from what I gather that have the power to, just not the resources,

*Aitome then pulls out a journal, dropping it onto a table

This details, apparently, all the iterations of the Nexus before our Nexus, apparently the Muscly Guy has done this death and reborn thing multiple times, I have no idea how credible this is but its our only source of information at the moment... at any rate it details that collecting enough of this crystal they call Nexite will have the power to destroy the Nexus and then warp us to another reality,

*Aitome then pulls out a glowing crystal, and holds it in his hands

I assume they mean this, and it comes from places of mass destruction, the Nexus contains these events and stores them in these.
Migrant
I hope not, but I can't be sure.

NOBODY can be sure what waits at the end of Yu's road. Not even Yu himself knows everything about his boss' plan, I'm sure.

They're as good as brainwashed. Promised a happy ending without proof, scared away from dissenting with an apocalypse, and then told to go forth and fight people.
Migrant
*Mig pauses, taking the crystal and holding it in her hand....*

Is it not a strange fate that we should suffer so much fear and doubt for so small a thing....?

*She stares into it for a moment, as if trying to gauge its power just by holding it....*

I don't know if there's anything we can do with these, maybe there is.... but we should try to collect as many of these as possible. At the very least, a weapon strong enough to destroy a world and teleport everyone out would require a great deal.

If we can take enough, they'll have to negotiate with us...
Aitome_Korichi
Mm, you got that right Black Mask, we have to stop them, even if they do have the power to transport us to another reality it won't be the same, besides, they tried to kill you in the process, that... I won't forgive, they will get whats coming for them, especially that Silver Hair... at any rate our best plan is to confront them the next time we see them, prevent the extraction of Nexite, and most importantly, pacify their leader.
AdachiImouto
*After hearing Aitome and Migrants words, Sayaka looks more lost than ever*

I... I don't know what to do... I want the best, for Hax, for House Adachi, for my friends... But what is that?

What am I doing...? What should I do...? I just want to stay free, and protect what I care about with the power I was given...
Migrant
This is Yu we're talking abou. A confrontation would only lead to more trouble.

I imagine they're gathering more followers, and gathering more crystals....

Actually, these newspapers may be of use after all...
Aitome_Korichi
*Aitome looks at Saki, noticing shes distraught and attempts to soothe her

Well I don't know much about you as we haven't talked much but I know what I'm doing, im going to protect the people near to me, using reason, or by force, I won't let anybody stop me, if you want to defend the ones close to you, use that power, don't sit around and wait for it to blow over, because by then it'll be too late, I learnt that the hard way...
Mona
*Enters the hospital*
Hey, can someone here get my armed checked out? I fell on it... twice.
Migrant
Mmhm. It's likely that we'll need more people to help us stop this as well... sure for now we can be stealthy and steal this "nexite" but eventually they'll come after us...

Just we need that fight to be on our terms, not their's.
Aitome_Korichi
Newspapers? How could they help? We are also gaining followers as well, even if they don't support you they are against them, I went to a recruitment session of theirs and it didnt convince alot of people, in fact, there appears to be another faction brewing, people who want to fix the Nexus.
Migrant
Well that's the side I'm on for sure, Ai.

If we can fix the Nexus once and for all, it gets rid of all the potential problems.

Anyway if these things appear in places of destruction, maybe the sites of our prior great battles will have some. I was reading them to lean more about how normal people think...
Aitome_Korichi
Hm? Oh you its you.. the Feline... what do you want this time...

*Aitome then puts his hand on his sword, ready to strike, demeanor changing from the soft to a rough look
Mona
The hell!? I only wanted to get my arm checked out! I didn't even hear your plan to stop NotIgor! *Mona slaps his mouth shut*
Aitome_Korichi
Your on that side hm? I guess I'm helping them out as well, you helped me out so its my turn now.

Hmm, I havent been around much so that would help, I suppose ill try to reconvene with their leader and then attempt to steal as much Nexite as possible,
Aitome_Korichi
Not like it matter, you didnt hear much anyways... Your arm is hurting? Well... I suppose there is a doctor around somewhere... try the front desk?
Migrant
So he has two Phantom Thieves on his side, huh?

And here I thought you guys and Yu were all about rebelling against fate.
Mona
I mean, I wouldn't say NotIgor is on the side of fate either.
Aitome_Korichi
Hmm, not all members of their group think alike apparently, no matter, at any rate we have a plan thus far, just remember what I said back at the forums Feline, I will end anybody in my way, you had better step aside if our blades clash.
AdachiImouto
*Sayaka looks down... She raises her head again, a look or conviction on her face*

Mona-chan... Sister Migrant... State your points, for and against. I will leave this hospital whoever makes the better point.

I want to protect the one I love. Onii-chan, House Adachi, and my friends... Give me a reason to side with you. Assure that I can be side with you without regret. And... That we will remain friends by the end of all this.
Mona
Uggh, i'm kind of new to diplomacy. I'm not really sure what type of stuff I should say, so how 'bout the other one goes first?
Migrant
*Stares at Mona from the bed.*

He seems to be very certain his cause is correct, and the only way.

Does that not mean he sees it as fate?
Aitome_Korichi
Saki, have you seen their methods? I dont meant to be crass but... they don't mind killing all of us who oppose them, they arent going to listen to reason anymore, they propose a ridiculous idea of destroying this place and evacuating the masses, how can you be safe knowing that they tried killing Black Mask, who knows who they will kill next, im sorry to say but they can't guarantee your safety... we don't even have concrete proof the Nexus is dangerous...
Mona
@Migrant well, if he's tried hundreds of times and failed, it's probably more like letting it reset would be fate.
Migrant
Wouldn't objecting to fate be trying to fix this world, though?

After all, if I understand him correctly, destroying it won't do anything really. Another Nexus will just be born eventually.
Mona
@Migrant If, theoritically, another Nexus just replaces it, what's the harm in destroying it?

@Aitome_Korichi we aren't the ones willing to listen to reason? She attacked us before any kind of diplomacy! Besides, she'd rather see everyone here die before giving up her home. She hasn't even bothered to see the new place to live, yet. If you could find a way to save everyone without destroying the Nexus, i'd be all ears.
Shaigis_Unit02
As long as Succoth is still around, the Nexus will always be brought back... Don't think he will give up his little play ground so easily.
Aitome_Korichi
Then why destroy it in the first place... Your only condemning us in the process if you do, have you seen how large the Nexus is? How are you going to save everyone, guaranteed?

That's what we are doing at the moment before you rudely interrupted us, besides, I don't see the bad thing in the Nexus resetting, it simply is a do over, I'll either fix the Nexus or reset and try again.
Migrant
The problem I have is that the only good outcome in this is that we fix the Nexus, find a way to stabalize it into a real world.

That way it won't be destroyed ever. By resetting itself, or by your boss.
AdachiImouto
...

*Sayaka listens to both sides, weighting her options. After looking regretfully at Migrant, she looks at Mona*

Mona-chan... Please take me with you. Yu-kun did hurt Sister Migrant, but for a reason... I'm sorry, Sister Migrant, but I feel that one location doesn't define who you are... It is who you are with... House Adachi will persist in any world. I hope you will understand that soon... Regardless,I hope we can all be happy in the end... Understand, I do this for Hax. I won't compromise her safety.

*Sayaka stands by Mona, looking determined. However, she couldn't look Migrant in the eye... She only hoped that she would understand her position*
Migrant
*Mig's breathing intensifies....*

No... no no... no.... no no no.... you don't get it..... YOU TRAITOR!
Mona
Have you seen the power of Nexite?
*Mona whispers to himself* ...LeBlanc *He touches the crystal on his slingshot and creates a portal with it*
With enough Nexite, i'm sure we could teleport everyone at once.

And, the bad thing about the Nexus reseting is that all our membories will be erased and it will be like we were never here. I can't bear the thought of that happening. If it continues to expand, more worlds will be consumed and forced to suffer. Even if we 'fix' it, it could just become unstable again. Fixing it would only become a temporary solution. I just don't want to live in a world where all our efforts are futile and any change will be for naught. And *Mona turns to Sayaka* Whether you remain friends with someone after this war will be entirely up to you and that person. The thing is, NotIgor presents a solution. And we need a solution as soon as possible. If you join with us and destroy the Nexus, you're friends will all be protected.
Mona
Ooc: late post
Aitome_Korichi
I understand that not everybody will listen, I hold no ill will, however the next time that I see you note that I will not hesitate to kill if need be,

Black Mask calm down, I may be a third party but their choice is theirs, its the actions that define people, not their words, and we will win in the end.
Shaigis_Unit02
*grabs hold of Migs hand again*
Calm down!
This isn't good for your health, let the fools walk their path of ignorance.... Once they've reached the end, they'll see its all been in vain.
Migrant
*Glares at Mona* Get out....

GET OUT!

*she attempts to get out of bed, yelping in pain as she tries moving her injured leg*
Mona
You will win in the end, huh? What makes you so sure?
Mona
I mean, I would get out, but I just remembered why I came here. *Mona grips his injured arm* Well... this is awkward. *Mona lies on the bed next to Migrant*
Aitome_Korichi
Simple, time, even if we fail here another reset will accomplish what we cannot, now begone Feline, we have no need for you here.

*Aitome then turns to Black Mask, seeing her struggle he sighs

Black Mask don't hurt your leg more than it already is... you should focus on what will provide us benefit at the moment, do not waste your energy
Mona
Doesn't the same go for us? The difference is that NotIgor has been trying hundreds of times. He's more experienced.
Shaigis_Unit02
*Shaigis grabs Mig before she can hurt herself again, and puts her back in bed*
Geez, I'm glad I'm here...
Aitome_Korichi
And whos to say this will end any different? Hes been foiled many times by now, either by our hand or another, a question however, if a reset wipes your memory, how does he keep his? Somewhat contradictory no?
Mona
Well, for one, he lives in a different reality. And, two, the Nexite-imbued journal keeps all his writing safe. Speaking of which, don't you think he might need that back?
Migrant
He likely doesn't.

You said this journal details all his failures? It's quite likely this journal is put somewhere he always frequents. Like his house. Or even perhaps kept in some.... outside....

The velvet room....?
Mona
Ooc: Ai has the journal
Aitome_Korichi
Its mine now, I'll be keeping it.

*Aitome then pockets the journal, and the Nexite crystal,

At any rate The Leathery Room? Whats that? Ive never heard of that place.
Mona
Wait, your side is willing to steal!? Wow, wow, that is just... wow.
Mona
Either way, i'm sure he has copies
Aitome_Korichi
He passed it to me of his own free will, I don't see how thats stealing, besides, all is fair in love and war, a little thievery is alot better than assault however...
Mona
It depends on what you're stealing, really. Assault is kind of implied in war. However, if you steal something like an atomic bomb, it's 7,525,688,092 times worse. Wait, check in that journal for plans for an atomic bomb.
Migrant
Honestly for a Phantom Thief you sure have issues with stealing. *Was still very tense and liable to pounce at any moment...*

Maybe you're afraid your boss is gonna lose.
Aitome_Korichi
Atomic bomb? Where did you get that idea... there was nothing there detailing a bomb at all, at least if I remember correctly.
Shaigis_Unit02
Do I have to sit on you?
Mona
@Migrant it's not stealing, it's taking back what's rightfully ours. Kamoshida stole student rights, Shido stole Joker's future, Yaldabaoth stole the world. In fact, we should be called the Phantom Returners! (Except the fact Joker never returns his rental DVDs...)

@Aitome_Korichi well, what about any other potentially dangerous weapons?
Migrant
I mean... you already told us all about potentially dangerous weapons.


Fusing crystals into weapons, was it?
Aitome_Korichi
Um... I dont think any of those people did anything wrong, you can't steal the world.

Not really... all I read about was those rift weapons, are you sure those aren't capable of mass destruction? If anything that slingshot of yours could be just as dangerous.
AdachiImouto
...I will be a traitor. I will be a villain. Anything to keep her safe...

*Sayaka mutters to herself as she tries to attend to Mona with medicine and a bandages. First aid stuff, but better than nothing. She tried to avoid looking at Migrant to avoid her feelings getting in the way*
Mona
@Aitome_Korichi you can't steal the world, huh? Well, wouldn't you say making everyone who isn't thought about disappear and bending it to your will controlling the world? And, if you think Shido did notbing wronf you're a clear-cut villain.

And, as to these weapons, all they can do is create portald. You wanna see?
Mona
*portals
Migrant
I'd rather not.... moving between locations like that.... it's best left to the people with keyblades.... or who know how to use the corridors....

*Mig glances at Sayaka, her tenseness relaxes for a moment, before she also tries to look away. She has to be strong... for everyone.... who died...*
Aitome_Korichi
What do you mean? You can't do that, people who are not thought don't disappear moron, besides who is this Cheeto person? They don't sound like a bad guy, all I've heard is you bad mouthing him.

Portals? How exactly? Are you sure it doesn't have repercussions on the world? Show me first..
Mona
Okay, one, the world I come from has different logic than yours. Two, if you're a god, there's quite a lot you can do. Shido was a guy who killed whoever got in his way of becoming prime minister of Japan.

And, it appears when we think about where we want go and when we touch the crystal.
Leblanc!
*Mona touches the crystal and launches a portal across the room with his slingshot*
Well, see for yourself
Migrant
.... *she shakes her head*

I have no reason to doubt after seeing that.

You're meddling in things you really shouldn't meddle in. All you're likely doing is accelerating things ending up here.
Aitome_Korichi
Strange world from where your from... and to think Heart Stealer went through that? Weird...

Hmm, lets see here..

*Aitome then picks up the slingshot, thinking of a stone tower atop of a hill that he's been to once or twice holding onto the crystal, as he fires the sling shot he opens a portal and investigates it, giving the Feline his weapon back, before putting his hand through, seeing it go to the other side as he retracts it

Definitely strange... I suppose ill use this as well, the journal has some info on rift weapons so it shouldn't be hard to bound mine, thanks Feline, even if we are working against each other your helping me out.
Migrant
Seriously!? You too, Ai?
Mona
Meddling in things I shouldn't meddle in? Well, when my life is at stake i'm pretty sure i'm already involved. Besides, I already chose my side. Not changing my mind doesn't mean i'm not listening to reason.
Migrant
Your life isn't at stake.... URGH! *she pounds the bed with her arms, tensing way up again*

I just don't get any of you! Why are mortals so obessed with destroying themselves!?
Aitome_Korichi
Its simply a tool that we can use Black Mask, I dont plan on using it unless its necessary, but we cant let them get the upper hand, besides, ive got a Nexite crystal as well, I should make full use of it.
Mona
Well, even if we are on different sides, we both have the same goal. And that's to prevent the collapse. If we can't succed, it's better that you do.
Migrant
.... Are you serious? You do realize you can't play both sides, right? We're going to have to fight eventually.
Mona
@Migrant did you not hear NotIgor? If the Nexus resets, we die.
Aitome_Korichi
The same goal huh? Well you want to destroy it before trying to fix it, if we have an infinite number of trys why remove that chance? That's what I don't get...

Mortals? Black Mask are you alright? Aren't you human like the rest of us?
Migrant
But if we destroy the Nexus then EVERYTHING dies. Are we really going to just go down that line of thinking? That as long as it's not a living person it's okay to destroy it?

And what happens if this evacuation fails? What happens if people resist? You think there won't be a panic in the streets!? Or were you only GOING TO SAVE THOSE WITH POWERS!?
Mona
The thing is, we don't know if we can fix it. But we do know we can destroy it. It's not us that has unlimited tries, it's other versions of us. Besides, what if something worse than the loop happens? The longer the Nexus exists, the more risk there is.
Mona
@Migrant this is not how war works. You can't just jump to conclusions or yell at whoever you want.
Aitome_Korichi
Black Mask has a good point, we have no assurance the destruction of the Nexus will be good, nor do the evacuation have any guarantee of safety

We all die evntually Feline, weather its by reset or natural means, resets dont even fully kill us, we live on in resets, I much perfer that than destroying the one place we know isn't going to explode.
Shaigis_Unit02
You people seem to be forgetting something very important...
Migrant
I'd take an option that ensures no other world is consumed in darkness, with near-total death.

I don't want to leave another world like that again....
Migrant
*Blinks at Shaigis*

F-forgetting something...?
Aitome_Korichi
What do you mean? I don't think I've forgotten anything.
Shaigis_Unit02
There is one person who would remember every reset that happens, and I'm pretty sure that she would of brought it up by now.
Mona
We don't know it isn't going to explode, though. The worst and best part of the Nexus is that anything can happen. That's heaven for some people. However, I fear in our pursuit for limitless freedom, we may have flown to close to the sun. And, yes, what if resets don't kill us? Then, everything we've ever done will not exist anymore. The world will truely be incapable of change. Still, I wonder, do we truely disappear if we live on in the hearts of others? If the reset happens, not only will our bodies fade, but our actions too. If we can't even be remembered, then the reset is just oblivion!

Migrant
Do you mean.... Aigis?
Migrant
*Glances at Mona*

If it blows up and we don't die, it likely sends us back where we came. Which for me is as good as death.

No, worse, it's an eternity in that void again.
Mona
*ponders what Migrant said*
Exactly. So, we can't let that happen, can we?
Shaigis_Unit02
Exactly, her core doesn't let her forget, even when time resets itself.
I'm pretty sure that if you ask her, she would would confirm this.
Mona
Uhh, what if her core gets destroyed completely? Then would she forget?
Aitome_Korichi
I think you fail to understand that everyone is destined to die, no matter how you try to escape it your actions will eventually fade, your bonds will eventually disappear, thats why I'm not afriad of the resets, it gives me another chance to keep going, isnt that much more desirable? Even if I forget ill get to enjoy all the things I have done in the past again, if the events change it would be way more exciting than trying to delay the inevitable

Im not sure who you are talking about, I don't know anybody like that...
Migrant
If she remembers no resets then either she only arrived this cycle, or it's true that there are no resets.

In which case this boss of Mona's is just a madman out to destroy the world and needs to be stopped!

*threatens to lash out again!*
Shaigis_Unit02
*plops down on Migs lap*
Nope, not happening Missy.
Mona
@Aitome_Korichi you're getting a bit philosophical. No one knows what happens after death. And, I don't know about you, but I try to seperate church and state as much as possible.
Mona
If Aigis can remember all things, then explain why she forgot the events of Persona Q!?
Aitome_Korichi
It aint religion Feline, its theoretical science, these resets you keep talking about are the only true way to escape death, as while your current self dies, you will be brought back in a reset.
Migrant
H-hey! *struggles but one quick ow and she stops*

Arg why is all of this happening..... First Yu tries to kill me, then Sayaka betrays me, now Ai is sounding all Gamma-ey....

And there's still a cat in my bed!
Aitome_Korichi
I'm starting to sound like Pinky? I suppose Tormention and Pinky have too many things in common hehe! At any rate I've still got your back Black Mask, I owe a great debt to you and I still have to repay it, also gotta repay Heart Stealer somehow...
Mona
I think you're overexaggerating things. Yu only tried to defend himself. Sayaka only chose a side. And Gamma has reached a pinacle of edgyness that Aitome will never acheive.
Really, you're only asking Sayaka to betray her other friends by siding with you.
Bgammax
OOC: Ok, this was serious for the longest time. But i had to laugh at "Gamma has reached a pinacle of edgyness that Aitome will never acheive." Not like he's wrong atm, but I find the phrasing hilarious
Aitome_Korichi
I'm not sure if I should be offended or pleased...
Aitome_Korichi
Ooc: agreed, Dotto is too edgy, only Infinite can match his edginess
Shaigis_Unit02
What is a "Persona Q"?
If you mean the labyrinth incident, she remembers that quite well... But, of course no one would believe her if she said anything.
Migrant
Defend himself? Defend implies he was the target, and that he was in the right with all of this! How can you people think you're right when you goal is to destroy everything.

I'm pretty sure desiring destruction and void is an evil thing.
Mona
Right? You think there's a right side to this!? No matter what happens, the Nexus you once loved is gone! You think after this war we will be able to walk on the beach together eating hot fudge sundaes? No. You think we will be able to drink coffee while we welcome new visitors and blow up demons just for kicks? No. We will always have to live with what we do, assuming we even can live. How could you willingly accept the death of billions and call yourself a hero? Think of it this way, if you could save an entire building or the lives inside, which would you chose?
Aitome_Korichi
Hehe.. a hero you say? Ive never been a hero, no, I simply want what's best for my friends or me, if none of my friends were burning in that building, and it wasent their property I would glady turn away and enjoy my time doing something else, you dont seem to understand that I don't typically take sides.
Migrant
You think there's no sides to this!? You think your leader is PURE!?

Ask him how he intends to herd and entire WORLD into another one and not have mass chaos occur! People will KILL for position, take what they want.

At least here we have a chance to STABALIZE the Nexus so we can continue on safe and sound!

*Tries to reach out and grab Mona!*
Mona
That comparision went right over you. The building was a metaphor for the Nexus
Migrant
But we can save the building AND the people!
Aitome_Korichi
Thats not a good metaphor, there are plenty of other buildings with people in them, honestly, you should give up, your not convincing us in any way.
Mona
But, we don't know how, do we? What if we don't even have time to figure out how? Destroying it, we at least know how to do.
Shaigis_Unit02
*grab Migs arms*
Don't stoop to his level.
Aitome_Korichi
Destroying it... so you would condemn the building and smash it onto bits, if a few people die in the way who cares right? Honestly... I'll never listen to your propaganda..
Mona
Heh, I wasn't trying to convince you. I just couldn't stand her constant yelling. It would've looked even worse if I just said nothing.
Mona
Yes, if a building isn't fit for people to live in you condemn it.
Migrant
Stop it! Just stop all of it! I don't want to remember it anymore!

*she is restrained, and almost immediately is in tears*

Why can't you just accept this world for what it is and enjoy it!? Why do we have to try and destroy it? We defy fate, don't we!

We... can win.... this time... right...?
Shaigis_Unit02
*she nods and kisses her forehead*
Of course there's a way to win, there always is.
We just has to calm ourselves and think.
Shaigis_Unit02
*just have to
Aitome_Korichi
Now look at what you have done... sigh.. at this rate I'm gonna have to stay here in a.. hospital...

*Aitome shudders at the thought but continues to speak

Even when there are people inside? Even if you can't guarantee their safety? You don't demolish an apartment full of people do you?

Black Mask, we'll either do it or die trying, better than sitting on the side lines to me.
Mona
Heh, maybe the Nexus is worth saving after all. If you can find a way to stabalize it, i'll happily join your cause. But, for now, i'd like to think we're not complete enemies. Not yet anyway. *Mona gets slightly drowsy*
Migrant
Then... get out of here, you two.... go enjoy your stupid fancy weapons and plan how you're going to force me to watch everything I cared about be consumed in void again.... *nearly curls up into Aigis at this point, she seems to be done listening*
Mona
But, don't you care about your friends, too?
Either way, i'm still waiting on what they have to say about my arm, so I can't leave.
Aitome_Korichi
Like I said, I harbour no ill will towards you, but if you stay in my path I will pacify you, nothing will stand between me and my goal this time.

*Aitome then seems a bit ticked off by the comment Black Mask made, eyes turning red before reverting pale

I'm on your side Black Mask...

*Aitome then leaves the room, tensing up again at the staff, before stepping outside and disappearing into the air
Migrant
GET.

OUT!!!!!!!!
Shaigis_Unit02
*wraps her arms around Mig in the most reassuring manner possible*
It will be ok, you'll see.
This will be no different from anything else that's threatened us before... But, if you need to take your frustrations out, I can handle them easily... I was built to survive most disasters after all.
Mona
*Mona's eyes grow weary*
Aren't you tired? Shouldn't you get some rest if you want that injury to heal?
Migrant
I don't need to beat on you....

We're going to have to win.... I don't think I can face them if I lost... history is written by the winner after all.
Mona
Well, if you win, History could just be reset. So, it's not neccesaryily writen.
Shaigis_Unit02
We'll find a way... I don't think I like the thought of letting mindless destruction happen... Unless I'm the one doing the destroying of course.
Migrant
Heh... even then it's not that great....

Is it bad to feel like I'd rather die fighting than have to face their anger for what I'm doing...?
Shaigis_Unit02
It's not bad to want to die fighting, but right now you aren't in the shape to do anything... And I don't want to face Joker if I let you die. That would probably be the worse experience I'll ever have.
Migrant
Shaigis.... I might never be in a shape to fight them....

Yet I'm sure they'll make me out to be the great villain and scapegoat should they win...

All because I can still remember seeing people I used to know disappearing into nothingness... aren't I the victim in all of this? Isn't this world good enough for them?

A homeless person shouldn't care if their tower is condemned...
Shaigis_Unit02
If you think I'm going to sit here and let you go off and do something stupid, you're wrong.... You don't understand the fact that if I let you die, then I'll be condemned myself.... So, if you have do what you're thinking of doing... Kill me.
Migrant
I couldn't.... but.... can I live with myself if I'm everyone's villain? What would I do with myself? I wouldn't be able to sing, or hang out with anyone....
Shaigis_Unit02
Do you truly believe everyone would believe you are the villain? Because, even if they provide proof, who is to say it's not doctored?
Heehee!
Migrant
Maybe... maybe not.... but I fear they'll accept it at face value...
Shaigis_Unit02
You seem to forget, you have an android on your side... I always have a way~
Migrant
*Mig had been watching the dueling speeches about evacuating or not... and it was certainly working the normal folks of the Nexus into a panic.... she sighs, turning off her in-room TV and looking at the newspaper stack.*

There must be SOMETHING we can do to stabalize the Nexus....
Shaigis_Unit02
*walks back into the room, carrying a folder filled with documents*
Ah, you're awake again I see... I may have some good news.
It seems that the original me was studying the Nexus and it's inhabitants for some reason.
Migrant
S-she was? Well.... that's great! What did she learn?
Shaigis_Unit02
*She sets the files down so Mig can look at them*
Apparently, there is a way to stabilize the core... It will take some precision and effort, but it may just work out.
Migrant
There is, huh? I'd say show this to them, but they'd probably point out some weird similar scenario from like 50 resets ago or something....

How effort are we talking here?
Shaigis_Unit02
Just enough to get is where we need to go.... And to be there at the right time.
Shaigis_Unit02
*to get us
Migrant
.... You don't mean it's time for us to have a "change of heart" do you?
Shaigis_Unit02
*she nods*
That's exactly what I mean.
Migrant
Does.... anyone else know about this?
Migrant
Now the only other issue is.... how do we keep everyone from leaving? Or at least keep most of them from leaving...
Shaigis_Unit02
No, just you, me, and the original. She didn't tell anyone else.
Shaigis_Unit02
And, unfortunately, I don't know the answer to that... Most of them don't seem to mind staying, in all honesty.
Migrant
Yeah, but with Tim endorsing leaving....

Actually, I might have something... something crazy, something HUGE.
Shaigis_Unit02
Hm?
.... I love that look you have in your eyes.
Migrant
I'll need a camera, a kid's voice recorder, and a friend in high places.
Shaigis_Unit02
Oh my... That shouldn't be too hard.
Akamoto_Nanaka
*Nanaka has been showing signs of waking lately, and cough here, a twitch there*
Robin-K
*Robin had remained vigilant by her bedside, hand still linked with hers as he rested his head against the railing of the hospital bed, groggy and dazed after several long nights waiting for Nana to return...*
.....
Akamoto_Nanaka
*Her hand holding Robin's twitches*
Robin-K
*Sleep deprived and still recovering, Robin remains unaware...*
....
Akamoto_Nanaka
Nnnmm.......
Robin-K
*Hearing something, Robin dazedly looked up, a little confused..*
...nngg....Nana...?
Akamoto_Nanaka
*Nanaka's eyes flutter half open*
I'm up.... shudit......
Robin-K
*Awake, Robin sat up, looking at her with teary eyes*
...N-Nana..?
Akamoto_Nanaka
............. Do..... I know you?
Robin-K
*Blinking, Robin let go of her hand, shocked at her words as he looked down to the floor...*
.....I..
Akamoto_Nanaka
*looks at him with a bored expression*
Well? Do I? Or not?
Robin-K
*Robin took a deep breath before looking Nana in the eye*
....You do...
I'm your friend.
..Robin...Robin Kisaragi..
Akamoto_Nanaka
*skeptical*
Nah, Robin-kun has white hair, now tell me the truth before I eviscerate you on the spot.
Robin-K
*Robin nodded*
You've been out for awhile..Nana...
...I've been through some things...
......However...I'll look normal again soon...
Akamoto_Nanaka
............ Gimme proof.
What did Robin say to Onee-chan when he was at her home?
Robin-K
*Robin laughed*
How could I forget..?

*Turning away momentarily, Robin turned to her, as if just noticing her the first time*
Did you grow taller..?
Akamoto_Nanaka
Huh?
Robin-K
Because you used to be here..
*Robin pointed around about his chest*
..But now your up to here, always in my thoughts...
*Robin pointed to his head, a silly grin on his face as he did so*
Akamoto_Nanaka
....... Pffft!
Hahahaha!
That's pathetic!
Hahahaha!
Robin-K
Yeah it was silly..
*Embarrassed, Robin scratched his cheek*
Akamoto_Nanaka
So..... What happened to me?
Robin-K
You had a breakdown...
In Mementos.
You were unresponsive ever since..
Akamoto_Nanaka
..... do you know why?
What broke me?
Robin-K
Laura..
Or someone posing as her at least...
...we lost one in Mementos...
...The Shadow..Mishima I think...
Akamoto_Nanaka
Nikki?
And..... fluffy died?
..... I must have been really stressed for that to effect me.....
Robin-K
*Robin nodded*
Yeah....I was really worried...
Akamoto_Nanaka
How long have you been here?
Robin-K
A few weeks give or take..?
Something happened so I was gone for a bit..
..I got back here two weeks ago or so...
..Why..?
Akamoto_Nanaka
Two weeks?.......
*looks at him grossly*
You've left to poop, right?
Robin-K
*Robin laughed*
Of course I did..!
I'm not an idiot!
Akamoto_Nanaka
....ok... Why?........
Robin-K
Hmm....?
Why...?
Akamoto_Nanaka
Yes, why.
Robin-K
*Robin blushed before looking away*
..I was really worried..
..I just..wanted you safe Nana...
Akamoto_Nanaka
.......Zat all you can come up with?
Robin-K
...Huh..?
Akamoto_Nanaka
I said, is that the only excuse you can make?

..... And why do I feel clammy?
*looks under the sheet*
Robin-K
Well....
...It'd be hard to admit it...

Anyway...
What do you mean...?
Akamoto_Nanaka
*stares under the sheets, then glares at Robin*
Robin-K
I didn't do anything..!
W-What is it..?!
Akamoto_Nanaka
Where are my panties?
*continues to glare*
Robin-K
I wouldn't know!
The hospital changed your clothes!
I'd never do anything without your consent!
Akamoto_Nanaka
......... So..... You would do it if I gave you permission?
Robin-K
*Robin blushed before looking away*
......

Akamoto_Nanaka
Hmmm.......
Oh well..... even if you did steal them, you can keep'em.
Robin-K
H-Huh...?!
*Stunned, Robin tried to shake it off*
A-Anyway...
D-Do you need anything Nana...?
Akamoto_Nanaka
Something to drink, Orange juice, semen, milk, water, anything really....
Robin-K
*The word passed over his head as reached into a satchel slung onto the edge of her bed and pulled out a water bottle*
Here...
*Offering it to Nana*
Akamoto_Nanaka
Tch.... I wanted milk.....
*Chugs the water*
Robin-K
Sorry..
*Robin ran his head through his hair*
..I need to be better...
Akamoto_Nanaka
You need to have more consistent reactionso, that's what you need....
I hate two faced guys.
Robin-K
*Robin sighed*
Can I just come clean then..?
Akamoto_Nanaka
Thank you.... geez..... yes. Please.
Robin-K
I'm...conflicted.
Other memories are there in my head and sometimes it just makes me act differently.
But...all those memories agree on one thing.
I need to protect you.
It sounds silly I know but...I do want to keep you safe..
Akamoto_Nanaka
......... You were going to say something different just now, weren't you?
Say it.
Robin-K
*Robin sighed*
....This might seem a bit out of nowhere...
but...
...I....
Akamoto_Nanaka
*watching with expectation*
Robin-K
...I think...
.......I....
*Robin looked towards Nana*
....I love you....
Laharl
*Laharl enters the hospital and notices the high amount of business the place receives*
This must be because of that group. I can't stand the sight of so many people being injured by not me.
Akamoto_Nanaka
Do you know how many times I've heard that? How many times its been a lie? What's so different about you? Why should I believe you?
*looks unamused*
Robin-K
*Robin gave a melancholic smile*
Yeah..I figured you wouldn't believe me.
...Who would...after hearing it spoken as lie...?
...But...I'm being honest...
..I wish you'd believe me...
Akamoto_Nanaka
............. Can't say i've ever heard that one before......
Why? If you "love me" you should have a reason.... tell me.
Robin-K
....I'm not sure if you remember..
But we met once...
In a long forgotten cafe...
We met..
..You went in...so sad for someone so young...
...I couldn't take it...
I wanted to help you, to make you smile, to make you happy...
...somewhere down the line....I couldn't bare not seeing you smile...
Then....In Mementos...
...When I thought I lost you...
...When you were so close to dying....to fading away...
...I found out then....

....I never knew when I started to love you...
....I just knew....how much I'd hurt if i lost you...
*Robin looked towards the window, not looking at her as he gave an pondering expression*
......That's when I realized it.....
.........I love you.......
Akamoto_Nanaka
I refuse.
Robin-K
*Robin gave her a smile*
That's understandable.
..I didn't expect you too.
I just wanted to set it straight.
....What I feel....it's a bit confusing at times...
But regardless of what you say..
*Robin turned to her*
...I'll keep trying to make you happy..
Akamoto_Nanaka
*smile*
That's fine. I..... don't think you're lying....
Robin-K
*Robin gave her a smile before looking out the window...*
....Love...really is confusing.....
Akamoto_Nanaka
Well.... it's time..... big bro wants me to do something.... wanna help?
Robin-K
*Sending her a confused stare, Robin gave a nod*
You just woke up..
..I'm not going to let you go out fight...
At least..
...Not If I'm there..
..If it's really that urgent..
..I'm coming with you..
Akamoto_Nanaka
*Makes a vicious smile*
Cool. Let's go.
*holds out hand*
Robin-K
*Robin looks down at her offered hand and smiled, reaching out and taking it in his grasp*
....Yeah...
Let's....
Akamoto_Nanaka
*Nanaka's appearance changes as they touch*
Now we wait for the signal.
Robin-K
*Robin held her hand gently, eyeing it*
..Signal...?
...What are we expecting..?
Migrant
*Back in Mig's hospital room, Shaigis and Mig are convening.*

So... basically we need to know if Shinji can locate the core, and then find a way to warp in...?

*sigh* Wish there was some easier way to track their location...
Shaigis_Unit02
Perhaps....
Adrian_Tepes
*hovers in*
I have awakened from a long slumber. Is there anywhere I can find some blood? I require it to strengthen up
Akamoto_Nanaka
*still standing, waiting*
