WEEK 3

[akudamods]

On Saturday, it is relentlessly sunny. Sunday too. Monday will be the same but with a lot of wind. For now, you get a new area: Old Shinsekai, the den of depravity surrounding the police station. Will you venture into the unknown and seedy? Or retreat into the familiar pods, keep bothering your overseers?

Maybe you plan something else altogether.

Politicians are all the same, trying to curry some sort of sympathy and control before they meet their end.

[ He has no love for any of them for that very reason. But he states it offhand like he's not thinking of President Shinra, who he had so much disdain for that he killed him where he stood. They're all the same in the end. They look down on people and think they are so much better for it.

It's why he will slaughter the rest of those politicians here (among others), the Loyalist being at the top of the list.

...Coincidentally this is a nice segue into Damian's comment on this wretched society. ]

There is no difference, not when it comes to the government; there's no saving what they've put in place and anyone who insinuates as much is out of touch with reality. [ He's also no interest in saving the people here, really. But...hm. ] You're correct to assume there's something wrong with the foundation of this world. The question is if it can be fixed, or if that too can only be resolved by destruction?

...

You misunderstand me. There's something wrong with the world, not the society. So much of it just doesn't add up... and a lot of those logical inconsistencies can be put down to the mind control we know is happening but some of them... I suspect we haven't even seen it's true nature yet.

That's the case I need to solve. [Maybe that'll be enough of a victory to even out every failure he's had, maybe that'll be enough to mean something.]

Do I?

This world—and it's society, are intertwined.

And all the same, what I've said before still applies. I've long since noticed that this is a farce on quite a grand scale, and the fact that the true face of it all hasn't been revealed isn't new to me. Though, you will find attempts at resolution far easier with those likeminded than by going at it alone. But who am I to stop you?

[ This world, and its society, to him...is...well, whatever is left of it by the time this all ends will be a sight to see. ]
