[The feed cuts in and Cube's big blue eyes are all that is seen for a split second before he pulls away, the background coming into view... as well as a scale that is currently resting upon his head. The lighting isn't too bright, but it's clear the room he's in is smaller than most.]

I... I'm not sure... paper scrolls?

All I remember was... well... I was back in my home world... on a night I thought I... I... could forget.

I'm not quite sure if what I saw really happened... maybe it was a dream?

Paper scrolls...?

Cube...there's been other people. On the network, I mean, people have been saying...I don't think you're the only one this happened to. Bad...memories, it seems like...maybe, someone's power again?

...are you really alright? Where are you now?

Hai. THey're to hold demons and other dark spirits... normally priests use them... it's alright. It happens.

It was a man who did it but I don't know why. I don't know why anyone would want to see those memories... It's hard to tell if he'd be one who enjoyed torture... but I rather not think of it like that... he seemed lost... so perhaps... it was a mistake...

I'm in the closet... Heh...Now that I can leave I... I don't really wish to...

...I'm sure it was an accident. Someone must have gotten their chip out, and it...

I...I'm sure they didn't mean it...

[She doesn't sound sure of this at all.]

At Anemone's? Is she there with you?

I don't know where she is... I should get up and find her...

[And he doesn't.]

...Cube.

[That's the tone of voice that says she's already on her way to come get you, little brother. 8|]

[And he is just sitting there, on his knees, staring through the door way, but wasn't looking there at all. he was looking through his memories for a short moment... a moment that lasted for what felt like years. He was still in shock, like the day after a horrible storm hit.]

[Alpha heads down the hall, not even bothering to knock as she enters Anemone's apartment. A moment later she's standing in front of the closet awkwardly, looking down at him. She doesn't say anything for another minute.]

...Cube?

[It takes him that same moment to realize someone is standing in front of him and he quickly looks up and gives a smile, regardless of who it is. As it sinks in, his frown wins over his smile and he continues to sit, unsure what to do.]

I'm alright. You... you don't have to worry. It's nothing to worry about. It's fine

[She doesn't respond to his reassurances, still looking down at him with a slight frown. After another moment, she steps forward and moves to sit next to her roommate on the floor of the closet. She glances at him out of the corner of her eye, then looks around casually.]

Hm. Cozy in here, isn't it? [Her tone is light and it's obviously supposed to be a joke, though she isn't smiling.]

[The comment started to bring him out of his clouded daze and he looked over to his roommate, not really registering her jesting]

.... is it? I suppose it's a good closet....

[Despite her attempt, the demon's eyes started to tremble with tears. He placed his forehead upon her shoulder, his bangs falling it no her along with his tears]

I couldn't.... I couldn't save them...

[She turned to look at the small demon as he leaned in to her, shifting closer and gently placing a hand on his head. She didn't know any of the details - who couldn't he save? From what, and why? And how could she ask him to explain something like that, when it clearly pained him so much? The most she could do was offer him cliched words of comfort, and hope he knew how much she meant them.]

I'm sure you did the best you could. You've always done that, ever since I met you...the very best you could, no matter what. Sometimes...there's just nothing more you can do...

[He sniffled, wanting to stop crying but when he held it back it just seemed to burst back stronger. He was supposed to be over this. He wasn't supposed to be sad anymore.

But I.... I don't know if it was best... best for her or... best for me... I ... I never thought they'd really do it... and it happened so fast! I failed as their guardian and... [He chokes up even more] And yet people praise me for it... as if it was me who did anything at all. I brought her to a world I brought her there but... If I did so well than why... why couldn't they all still be alive too...? Than she'd never have to suffer...

[After a moment he tries to wipe his own tears away, muttering]

I'm sorry, I didn't... I don't want to worry you.... I'm sorry...
