[For once, we wish we were a little less curious.]

[...Oh, whoops.

He'll just nod nonchalantly - there's nothing much to comment about, and it would be useless and too long to explain.]

...[And we'll just shrug. It wasn't the most appealing thing to see, and it kinda bothers us, but...]

Not my world, not my problem.

[Good answer.]

My world functioned on... different mechanics. I realize that this may be unsettling. My apologies.

If I had an actual conscience, I might ask for an apology. Guess you got lucky. [A smirk that's only a fraction of its usual brilliance.]

Besides. Looks like you weren't the one who got off on torturing Little Orphan Annie.

Hah, I see. What luck, then. [Right back at you, here.]

Kirei's an interesting man. While there are probably other ways to achieve our end, this is the method he chose. It served its function; I've no complaints.

Hey, as long as I'm not the one in the coffin missing a few limbs, I've got nothing to say. Humor my morbid curiosity if you will, though; what function were they supposed to serve?

Fair enough.

Nutrition for survival.

[A short pause.]

Their souls are consumed to maintain my existence in my world.

And I thought being a test-tube baby was weird.

Artificial birth? Interesting. [How useless - are normal means of reproduction no longer sufficient to satisfy these mongrels? ...Then again, it was probably a different world with more different mechanics - he won't comment on it, then.] What prompted that, if I may ask?

Necessity. [This smirk is a little bigger, and definitely more secretive.] I suppose every world has their own peculiar mechanics.

The same reason as I, then. [Each to their own personal closet, y/y? We all have our skeletons.] Heh, indeed. How quaint.

[This closet's getting a little full, if you ask me, we don't need anyone else's skeletons.]

Quaint? I suppose that's one way of looking at it. Fascinating is a better word, I think. What do you know about the mechanics of this world?

[Chuckle.]

Somarium? For one, it twists the rules that one would use to follow in their own world, and adapt them to the collectivity in this place.
