Today, we’re going to talk about a topic that is considered particularly attractive by people who should be dead, but aren't. Oh! But isn't that like our dear Angeal? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say your name. [He so did, and that false sweet and sympathetic act isn't going to fool anyone.]
Well, the Lifestream didn't want him, so it threw him out…
Back on topic. Angeal’s demonstration of cutting and slicing himself up like a piece of meat in order to find his chip was done so almost flawlessly! There's just one issue he forgot... If you want to keep doing it, make sure your friends don't know. Otherwise you're even more pathetic. [His tone switches from falsely cheerful to disgust.] Even more of a failure! If I was going to do something like that, would I want Mother to know? Would I want her to be ashamed of me?!
But if you're fine with that, and you're okay with being pitied upon like some wounded animal, then by all means! Let people know. You'll never go far enough, you'll never be handed the pain you truly deserve, but that's your choice.
And what about people who may have a harder time doing this? What if broken glass just isn't enough? For one, you really have no reason to be doing it, but let’s pretend that for some reason you really want to do what Angeal did.
[There's some shifting and fumbling before it switches to video. Kadaj is standing in front of the communicator, a piece of glass in his hand.]
You're like me. You may not be exactly the same, but your healing capabilities are similar. See...?
[Holding up the shard of glass to his exposed arm, he starts to drag it across his skin. Instead of blood though, there's a momentary flicker, almost as if part of him evaporates before the wound fixes and he's back to normal. Kadaj looks to the camera and grins, tossing the glass aside and pulling down his sleeve.]
That's your issue, isn't it? You don't have the same answer, you can't choose the easy way out. But shoving your head into a Reaver’s mouth pretty much gets the same job done. Not that if you're pathetic as our friend Angeal, you deserve the help your friends, best friends maybe your son after they found out by someone else who ended up helping her before he could would give you. Not even in this video.
[Leaning forward, he glares darkly and shuts it off. End transmission.]
