There seems no end to those mannequins...

[Normally Kain would be more eager for the challenge of the extra Cosmos mannequins, but even he has his limits. It's beginning to wear him down. Besides, having to resort to an undiginifed and annoying technique to lower their defense is... not something Kain enjoys doing, and he's

Well, if the alternative's vanishing… [shrugs.]

[bound_skyward]

What if it was a choice between someone important vanishing... or yourself?

[zephyraudacia]

Why does it have to be a choice?

[bound_skyward]

Well, if one side wins... what becomes of the other?

[zephyraudacia]

[well if it wasn't clear before…] I think… last time, after Chaos went… [so he assumes, at least.]

Maybe that's different, too. Or we can work something out. [you may not be the most cheerful person he's ever talked to, but it's not as though you've threatened to pull him into the Void or anything!]

[bound_skyward]

[...oh, great, just what he wants to put up with.]

They shouldn't worry. I'll do fine on my own.

[zephyraudacia]

[the beginning of a beautiful relationship]

[bound_skyward]

Of course I can. [Like he would admit otherwise.]
