Voice testing, possibly going to afterliving

[gentlelady]

I must admit, it's rather surprising that you're choosing me among all your muses. Such a cruel destiny, the one you're giving me. Plane crash, is it? [ Humming. ] After I said goodbye to Hanako and Hisao... how cruel, indeed.

However, I'm rather curious. Since, according to the information, I'll be able to regain my eyesight upon stepping in the afterlife. [ She smiles weakly. ] Finally allowed to see shapes and fellow people with my own eyes... it's going to be an overwhelming experience.

[ ...Being able to see again, huh? ]

That's great then, isn't it? I can't imagine how that will feel, but it sounds wonderful.

[gentlelady]

It would sound verily wonderful if I didn't have to die in order to regain it.

[twentystakes]

Hmm. I've heard of that game. Something about the after life, isn't it? I can understand your hesitation. [ Though death wasn't something he worried about much. ]

It is a little cruel of your mundane. But they are giving you a chance you may never receive otherwise.

[gentlelady]

You may be right. Perhaps I'll meet my sister there, too.

[ In the bottom of her heart, she wishes it wouldn't be the case. Akira was with her on the plane... ]

[ Titus is intending to walk past, minding his own business, but as soon as he hears mention of a "cruel destiny", he stops in his tracks and turns to gaze at her, eyes unreadable even if she could see him. He stays about two meters in front of her, breathing lightly. ]

[gentlelady]

[ Being used to notice other presences with the use of her hearing, Lilly turns to the source of those steps, smiling politely. ]

Hello. And who might you be?

[lacksboobs]

[ A small fake smile graces Titus' lips as the girl greets him. ]

Ah, so you noticed me. [ This is just Titus being Titus. He's not trying to be rude, even if it seems that way. ]

I'm Titus. Titus Alexius of the Laem Empire.

[ And then the charade breaks. He takes a step forward and grasps both the girl's hands within his own with barely suppressed desperation. ]

Hey, are you really okay with dying?

[gentlelady]

I'm Lilly Satou. Nice to make our acquaint--

[ The words die in her throat when the boy takes her hands. But then she tilts her head, confused by the gesture, but sure about the answer. ]

Of course I'm not.

[chestboard]

Whoa whoa whoa! Let's back up a bit here!

Plane crash? Afterlife? Your mun is gonna kill you off....?!

[gentlelady]

That's what she's going to do, unfortunately.

[chestboard]

Damn.... and you're just going to take it? Come on, fight back!

[timidscars]

[Sorry Lilly, all she heard was plane crash.]

Y-your mun's going to k-kill you?

[gentlelady]

[ Ah, Hanako...

Lilly should have expected her to hear this. Poor girl. ]

I'm sorry, Hanako. She decided so.

[timidscars]

B-but why?

[She sounds like she's just about to start crying.]

You c-can't.

[idkworldruler]

Well, have fun with being dead.

[gentlelady]

It's rather not something I would like to experience, but thank you.

[idkworldruler]

It can be painful the first few times, but you get used to it.

[theshiningone]

You're taking all of this in calmly.

[gentlelady]

Being angry or depressed won't make my mundane change her mind, for sure. And I would rather stay rational about it.

[theshiningone]

If you're going to the afterlife... [SERIOUSLY DETERMINED FACE.] Tell me if the clouds really taste like cotton candy.

[drinkswithminors]

Whoa whoa whoa. Whoa. Nuh uh. No, this isn't gonna work.

[gentlelady]

[ WELP. ] Akira... I'm sorry you have to hear this.

[drinkswithminors]

No no, YOU shouldn't be sorry. You didn't do anything. Your mun, on the other hand, has another thing coming.

[yourkindlibrarian]

But you shouldn't have to die to finally have your eyesight, Lilly-san! It would be too sad, and you wouldn't be able to finally see us if it will happen in a totally foreign world.

[gentlelady]

I know. I'm not too happy about the idea either, but looking at the bright side is better than despairing about it, don't you think so?
