The End of an Era (Private to those involved)
I now wave the white flag of surrender.
That's right.
Thanks to your efforts, I can no longer rebuild the Devil's Machine.
I'll let you in on why.
The Devil's Machine is alien technology.
I don't have the materials needed to rebuild my machine.
I'm through now.
All of my plans are all down the toilet.
Giygas will truly remained buried in his grave.
You must ( Read more... )
Why don't you look at what you can rebuild, and start thinking of this as a beginning instead of an end?

I've spent centuries building my empire...
And in all that time, I, alone, gathered up all the power I could get my hands on.
Now, in a single stroke, everything is gone...
Ness.
You can't begin to understand the pain I went through.
You of all people should be happy.
Now I can't "hurt" anybody.
And you didn't have to lift a finger.
Good job, hero-boy. Mission accomplished.

No, I really can't begin to understand everything you've been through, Porky. I'm not trying to imply that I do. But it's not like you're not the only one here who knows what it's like to lose something.
I don't take pleasure in other peoples' misfortunes, even if in this case I'd call it beneficial, to me and my friends and the rest of the world...
The way I see it, Porky, you can either keep feeling down about it or you can pull yourself together and get back to teaching your class. I'm already sunk so you can keep giving me F-s and Ks if it makes you feel better. And you still have the play to look forward to.

You're such a stupid boy...
You only care about yourself.
I've lost something more precious than all of you: both my childhood and my empire.
I can't even have one of them now.
So everybody wins. Wonderful.
But what about me? What does Porky get?
... I'm a monster. That's how people see me.
That's why I never could return, Ness.
You ignorant boy... You don't know anything about me, so shut up.

P......
Porky.
I know more about you than anybody else here, if nothing else.
We were neighbors.
We were friends.
What I don't know is how you've changed since then, but I think I'm starting to see.
Not everybody thinks you're a monster, Porky. And even if they did, if you really wanted to, you could change that. You're perfectly capable of making up for lost time, right now, but it doesn't seem like you're willing to.

Can you truly comprehend the sort of pain that I'm going through?
Ness...
You're the only one that cares.
It doesn't matter anymore. Nothing does.
The fact is that you won and I lost.
Once I gain enough power again, I'm going to start all over.
Then we'll have to fight again.
Will you think the same way, then Ness?
Save your fake pity. All you're doing is trying to make yourself look better.

That's what I see. I may not be correct, but I am being honest.
I can't tell you how I'll be thinking in the future, but my guess would be the exact same way I am now. Or similar to it.
You could say I'm used to fighting. And used to not giving up.
But you're tenacious too. Maybe we're at some sort of stalemate and don't even realize it.
I'm not trying to make myself look better, Porky. I wouldn't be spending my time talking to you like this instead of doing homework or going off and having fun if I didn't mean any of it.
But you can believe whatever you want to believe. I'm not the one who's capable of changing your mind.
