On considering his return to scorched

The lights still flicker wildly there, don't they? But that is the nature of the Door. No, that I remember does not mean that I wish to go back. There is nothing for me in that place besides ghostly memories and monuments built to commemorate people and things long gone.

Not that you care, hm? And they call me an abyssal one.

[His laugh is a grim and humorless one.]

But you say I have unfinished business. Tell me, what is that? A basement of grisly shadows sealed away? A severed arm left to a magician? Too trivial by far.

Or is it not my arm to which you're referring? Hers...? Now, I might go back for that. But then what? I don't like to act without planning ahead, as you well know. Tell me what comes next and maybe I'll consider returning after all.

Good, then do so. It's much easier to converse with a young woman when she doesn't speak like a feral child.

But what's this about not being needed? Try doing something that you want for a change. You're no one's dog anymore.

It's easier when someone doesn't vomit words either.

[She snorts.]

No I'm not. But I don't know what I want.

Hm...when you decide, perhaps I'll see you there. And if not...at least I know where to go looking.

We'll see. Mun is wavering, all thoughts about canon updates and wings.

I hope that she makes up her mind soon.

Same. She wants to see me awakened.

...I see.

Curiosity. And if it's successful.

Muns are weird. She's proud about me feeling like an abyssal.

Are you proud, Miata?

Nothing to be proud of, or to hate. It just is.

Things can be just as they are, but that doesn't mean you must be without an opinion.

Should I say it's good or bad? It's amazing? Disappointing?

'snot as if I use it a lot. The yoki.

I'm not going to say you should feel one way or the other, I was only asking if you did.

I don't. I know I should. But I don't.

Maybe that's for the best, even if it is a little odd.

Better then being proud of it?

Excessive pride corrupts.

You would know.

You're so presumptuous.

Am not. You're older then me. You would know. Seen it.

Oh, is that how you meant that? Not as a jab?

Not as a jab. If I want to say you're corrupt, I would say it. Not all sneaky like.

I didn't consider it very sneaky, but if you say so.

Maybe not sneaky. But not...indirect.

[She hopes that's the word.]

[He knows what she means.]

You were always very forward, it's true. I think that's one of the things I appreciated most about you. You didn't skulk around in the shadows like some servile dog. You were always a bit too reckless, though.
