Just in time for Father's Day!

[stillyourfather]

I won't participate in this! You want nothing more than harm him, as if things weren't bad enough. Your idea is simply cruel and -

You what?! I didn't agree to this!

[Sorry, old man. While you were ranting on I got things started. Oh well. Happy Father's Day, Kira Sakuya!]

Just get away from her while you still can, old man.

[stillyourfather]

It's far too late, I'm afraid. She's harsh, but she's been my player for five years now.

Forget that. ...how are you doing?

[sympathyforme]

She would be. You're a fool.

What does it take to make you understand?

[stillyourfather]

Sakuya, I thought we were past that. Do you still want to keep hurting yourself that way? Especially when they is no need for it?

[sympathyforme]

You are dead, you idiot! Same as your wife! Same as your son!

[stillyourfather]

No, Sakuya!

I am living, more or less. My wife is dead, but you are still my son and still living. Or so I've been told.

[sympathyforme]

Trust me. I'm dead. And I never was your son.

[stillyourfather]

You can't be dead....

[stillyourfather]

We've already went over this! I raised you all those years. I don't care what you are. You were with me the whole time, and therefore you are my son!

[sympathyforme]

The only reason I was with you all this time is that you were too much of a sentimental old fool to kick out the child that brought you nothing but grief.

[sympathyforme]

Anyone else would have stopped loving by now.

Anyone else...

[stillyourfather]

It doesn't work that way, Sakuya.

How could a parent stop loving their child?

All this time you fought me it was still obvious how much pain you were in. I couldn't just turn away from that or give up. Even without that...I couldn't give up on you.

[sympathyforme]

Parents stop loving their children all the time for no reason. You're just too fucking stubborn to do it.

I'm a murderer, what else do you need?

[stillyourfather]

I never have. And I never will.

That isn't going to make me stop loving you. That is a fault of mine as well as yours. And I still want to work together on that.

[sympathyforme]

Heh. Tough luck, I'm dead.

[stillyourfather]

I was told you were stuck in some city. Alive, for the time being.

And being dead isn't going to make me stop loving you, either.

[sympathyforme]

Sure it won't, but at least I won't have to deal with it then.

[stillyourfather]

Sakuya....

Is that what you truly want? Because you've never been convincing about it.

[sympathyforme]

Fuck off.

[stillyourfather]

There's no point in you trying that again!

If you really hated me so much and wanted to push me away you could've left. But you never did. You always returned home. You're not going to convince me now!

[sympathyforme]

I used you. I used you just like I used your son's body and his life. I don't give a fuck about you.

[stillyourfather]

Sakuya, no. That life became yours, became ours. There was no need use me further or keep hanging around. You were an adult. If you really wanted to, you could have left at any time.

[sympathyforme]

Your money came in handy, old man.

[stillyourfather]

Do you need any now?

[sympathyforme]

...

[sympathyforme]

Are you for real, you idiot?

Don't come near me again.

[stillyourfather]

Sakuya....

I'll be waiting here, when you're ready to stop this.

[sympathyforme]

[Do you like seeing rude handgestures before he storms off? You must! Enjoy.]

[stillyourfather]

[Doesn't matter. He's not going anywhere. Alone and depressed, forever.]

[confined_to_briah]

(Alexiel actually looks faintly sympathetic.)

It has never been your decision that mattered.

[stillyourfather]

I'm aware of that, but I can't allow her to harm him so consistently.

[confined_to_briah]

A good father. One many should emulate.

[stillyourfather]

I...I don't feel I've been one. There are too many fault-lines to say something like that. I've tried my best, that's all.

[confined_to_briah]

Man's ability to persevere against the odds is remarkable. I believe he knows what he found in you. (A saddened smile.) It was probably hard for him to leave you.

[stillyourfather]

You don't need to do this. [He's not one to cause her grief, some woman he doesn't even know.]

He might not like someone translating his actions for him.

[confined_to_briah]

He would suffer my opinion. I am Organic Angel Alexiel. (She who met Lucifer in Briah (Eden) so long ago.)
