Normally, yes.

[ she waves a hand, more at herself that anything. ] This is how I look when I project myself. Otherwise...

You saw how his left eye was red in that memory, but it's not red here?

Oh, yeah. [ he thought he had pink eye... ] Is that how he can see you, then?

[ help not the pink eye. ]

Pretty much, seeing as that’s me. [ …. ] Don’t think too hard on it.

.. An eyeball...?

[ luckily there's no time to explain the pun, ace's memshare turn is here

you gave me a cute moment between ryuki and tama and i am here to vomit people being mean to a five year old ]

An AI-Ball. [ it sounds just like eyeball i hate it here.

all these people trash talking at a kid... smh. ]

...

Did you figure it out, in the end? Your answer to that question at the end?

[ well. that's. hmmmm. ]

... I can't say I have for sure.

[ sorry to be a bummer but don't worry it's worse when tomorrow you learn he died unsure ]

[ zia that icon name just made me feel violent. ]

Hmmm. I guess it's pretty philosophical, so there's no one answer that can really encompass it. Even if someone tells you "Yes", if you don't believe it, are you going to believe them...?

[ stooooooop. ]

[ it's lyrics :) ]

... It's not so much about one person saying yes or not, I guess. [ it's not philosophical so much as trying to figure out if the world would be overall better off without him in it and that's haaaaaard to gauge ]

[ ANGY. ]

Does it help if you do hear it from one person, though? [ she's never had to wonder if there was purpose in her being born -- she was created for a purpose, and given meaning by ABIS. but it's not like she can't learn and wonder on other people's behalf. ]

... Can't say I've ever asked anyone since Gramps.

Hmm.

[ she's thinking. ]

I don't think there's a way to say this without it sounding cheesy? But -- and okay, this place sucks but just suspend disbelief and ignore the fact we're stuck here being part of it for a second.

I'm pretty glad I met you. So there's that. And I know I'm not the only one.

[ sorry he shocked pikachu for a second there before he laughs, ducking under the brim of his stupid hat to hide his flush ]

... Thank you. [ it's quieter than the rest, which: ] I'm pretty glad I met you, too.

[ not the shocked pikachu.

after a second of watching him shocked pikachu and try to hide, she reaches out and gives the brim of his stupid hat a further tug down. silly. ]

... Thanks.
