... Li is gone.

I killed him...

Sometimes I really hate it when you're right, Yuuko...

Daemon...

[blackjeweled]

...

[takion]

Even though he's no longer here, my friend, you will always be a part of the story in his heart.

[blackjeweled]

If he's even still alive. He never... He never came out of the coma. He's just... Gone. Like they knew he was worthless to them now...

[psychokupichan]

......

You didn't kill him. AIDA did.

[blackjeweled]

I stayed with him by choice. The AIDA... It did the rest. But, I indirectly killed him.

[psychokupichan]

But did you stay with him because you wanted to kill him as AIDA tried to? Or did you stay because you cared about him?

That is the difference between you and AIDA.

[blackjeweled]

I stayed because I cared... I had no idea it would come to this...

And this place... They just let him die...

[only_hitsuzen]

As do I. I'm sorry, Daemon.

[blackjeweled]

I'm sure there's no price I could pay that's equal enough to bring Li back... This place... It really is hell.

[only_hitsuzen]

No. There isn't. Once they leave here only the powers that be in this place could ever bring them back.

It's okay. I lost someone, too.

[blackjeweled]

... I'm sorry I doubted you.

You lost someone too? ... Why are so many being taken away?

[keruberon]

...

Well, better him gone than still trapped here..

(( doesn't really know what to say because he didn't know Li well but he liked him enough ))

[blackjeweled]

... Maybe... He once said... He would rather stay here then go back to his home.

[keruberon]

I hope he is somewhere.. more peaceful now.
He seemed like quite a mess when I met him..

[blackjeweled]

I sensed that, too... But there wasn't much I could do. I tried, though...

[demonthiefking]

...Daemon.

[Walks over and sits next to him.]

[blackjeweled]

[Long silence. Daemon is out of it.]

... He's gone, Youko.
