Whilst not one to draw conclusions without some fairly concrete facts, I have fair reason to hypothesise, from what I recall and from my present location, that I am dead ( Read more... )

...

Now there's a face I was fine never seeing again.

... Likewise. Staring one's errors in the face can be quite embarrassing.

I vaguely remember you. Specimen #H0145-ZF. A failure.

Further support to my hypothesis.

Oh, you don't have to flatter me so much.

I might be inclined to show you how much fun it could be staring at me face to face.

You've been here for a while, haven't you? Such frustration.

There should be no need. I'm more interested in answers.

And the Ancient? Quite the welcoming committee.

I have a name.

Somehow I can't bring myself to be surprised that you're here.

I don't make it a point to remember trivialities about my specimens, but I can at least remember yours. Aeris, I believe? ... You would be a difficult one to forget.

A pity I can't say the same.

... I think on principle, I don't like you.

a_failed_god August 27 2007, 02:03:13 UTC
Indeed?

I assume you have sufficient reason. Have we met before?

crepusculine August 27 2007, 02:03:45 UTC
No, we haven't.

Then I can only assume your conviction is based on hearsay.

How unkind.

Your guess may or may not be correct. Some people here claim to still be alive but I'm not certain if that's true or not. They could just be in denial.

In any case, we're all here to "repent" for our "sins". But I'm sure that you have no intention of doing so.

a_failed_god August 27 2007, 04:28:53 UTC
Hm. Is there so little information that there's room for uncertainty? Killing someone ought to resolve the issue.

... I see.

Perhaps. I wouldn't want to make a decision prematurely.

Considering this is an unfamiliar world to everyone, yes. I'm positive that I have died. But I cannot be equally as certain about anyone else when some have no recollection of coming close to death.

It really isn't about making a premature decision but more about whether or not you regret how you spent your life. After all, one cannot repent without remorse.

Perhaps there is no absolute to this area. That in itself is cause for scientific interest.

It's an interesting reason, but it lacks logic. In this environment, any remorse will not be for what I have done, but for landing myself here via those actions. If my emotions were any different, I wouldn't be here in the first place.

And if our atonement is false, is it insufficient?

Presumably what they desire from us isn't regret. It's merely mental conditioning.

I...I guess new people appear here all of the time then...

Reply

a_failed_god August 27 2007, 04:31:13 UTC
Hmm.

What would you estimate as the frequency of new arrivals?

Reply

unforgivencurse August 27 2007, 04:52:42 UTC
I...I only arrived myself to this...place. But several more seem to have appeared after me. Weekly...maybe daily?

Reply

a_failed_god August 27 2007, 15:35:52 UTC
So... you're new.

Did you also find yourself alone?
