What we experienced just now...
I just know it's something I never want to go through again... I mean, I've been killed in many different ways on this team, but to be forced to face death even when it wasn't a combat situation... and on top of that, having to feel the sensation of doing it myself is just... a big no.
Can't believe residents in N Corp. pay money to purchase that nasty experience...
<Back here... again...>
It was nothing I hadn't anticipated, but that didn't make the disappointment hurt any less.
... Thou hast been muttering to thyself for a while, Manager Esquire! Is aught amiss?
Thy complexion and thy countenance alike seem most unwell, forsooth...
Yeah, ya do look off. Feelin' sick, Dante? Even your ticking sounds a little faster than usual...
I mean, this was the first time they had to die, wasn't it? No wonder it rattled them, even if it's just an "experience." Let's give Manager Bud some time to get their bearings.
... I can't stop thinking about what Jeanne had said - about how the choices we make here won't do a single thing to change the ending.
<I need to check outside. See whether anything's changed...>
<And if it really turns out that it was all for nothing...>
<Then I'm done listening to your warnings. I'll tell the Sinners everything and find another way.>
.......
Even that benevolent smile now looks strange and alien.
... All things will appear still... as one believes them to be.
The Sinners kept their distance, keeping an eye on me from afar as though I felt alien to them. Maybe they didn't know what to make of my words or my demeanor.
I'd thought it'd be enough if I could change how things turned out, but no.
The real outcome didn't change one bit - we were right back where we started.
Whoa, hang on, Manager Bud! Where are you going?!
Executive Manager! It's dangerous to venture out without any intel!!
Ignoring Outis and Gregor, and the other Sinners who rushed after me, trying to stop me...
I threw open the door leading outside.
