Regarding SMT4's bad ending:

[alephbet]

Are you kidding me.

Yes, I know it's a little hypocritical to complain who calls themselves Messiah, but regardless if you think I'm a Messiah or not - there is a limit and wiping out all existence is firmly on the other side of it.

What is wrong with this universe...

[technologic]

... Wait, they did what?

[alephbet]

My successor sucked the world into a black hole. On purpose.

[technologic]

Wha- Why?? Is your successor brain-damaged?!

[alephbet]

Or else just incurably pessimistic with way too much power.

[technologic]

Ugh, why would anyone ever think that's a good idea. You can't fix anything if you destroy it! [Grumble grumble grumble.]

[alephbet]

If he ever shows up in the tower, let's punch him.

[technologic]

Good idea! And we'll take turns... Would your demons want turns too?

[alephbet]

They'd love to. They're pretty attached to the world too, after all.

[technologic]

Okay, so we'll all take turns until we get bored or he passes out. Deal?

[alephbet]

Works for me.

[samurai_flynn]

I...
I did what?!

[alephbet]

I'm not making this up.

[samurai_flynn]

Why...

There must be another way...

[alephbet]

Of course there must. Even God can be defeated with enough willpower and strength, and the kind of world you want to build can be created with dedication. So don't you dare choose this.

[samurai_flynn]

I won't.

[alephbet]

Thank you.

[......]

Flynn... Flynn would not do something like that!

[alephbet]

Versions of ourselves can do a lot of things we would find unthinkable.

A Flynn, probably several Flynns, did do that.

[casualchaos]

But even so... Something like that is so- so foolish! I can't imagine him even considering anything like that!

[alephbet]

I wouldn't jest about this.

[casualchaos]

I am aware this is no jest! But... What could even drive him to something like that...

[alephbet]

...I'll give him one thing. When the White say God's cruel, they really mean it.

[casualchaos]

... Even so, a cruel God is not worth doing something as horrific as this. He should have fought against His will, established a new order, not wipe everything out...

[alephbet]

Don't lecture me, lecture him if you see one who made that decision.

[casualchaos]

I will do far worse than lecture him if I ever meet him.
