She wanted to know why, and asked to leave something behind. So we had tea, discussed my reasons, and I waited while she put down what she wished to say.
Hm... I wanted to know what would happen if one of us chose to act on our own, and planned for it. Whether another body would turn up regardless. I suppose we won't know for sure whether Norma's situation was like Rocket and Mika's or if someone planned to kill her too, though...
I was wondering that too. I'd thought about it: what if I planned to kill somebody on Thursday, would that allow me to stay awake? But it didn't happen.
[ maybe because he ended up in the park with 2039485934 other people and that killed his murder vibes, but. ]
Mika and Rocket didn't know why they stayed awake. What did Chiemi say?
You said you wanted to know what would happen if you planned to kill, whether a body would turn up regardless. Wouldn't that mean not killing Chiemi? To see if both of you— and anybody else awake— will survive the night?
Hm... but as for what I care about... nothing you would find here.
[it sounds like he might leave it at that, but-]
The performance we meant to create at home, the funeral dirge for my dear Angelica-- the sound that would break the boundaries of loneliness between everyone in the City and free them all. I cared about that.
Okay, so you don't care about returning to a world where you're dead, but I care about returning, even if I'm dead! So either help me or let me punch you in the face!

[ be nice, though, ]
Most people sit still and politely die. They don't have bars to protect them.
[ know that these bars are for your protection, not his ]
...So, I overheard you tell Nico. Chiemi was an accomplice?
no subject
[politely dying? no thank you.]
I don't know what you mean by accomplice, though? We spoke before I killed her, that was all.
no subject
What did you talk about?

She just accepted she was going to die? I don't believe it. What reason would you have to kill her?

If you kept the peace a little longer, we all would've gone home, and you can return to your little performance. There was no need to do it here.

Items are power. Information is power. People's weaknesses. You're not completely useless to me.

I'll find out if it's possible to send you one that I wasn't able to use. If you get your hands on an instrument, you'll know that it was mine.
