This world-- this...place. It isn't- no, it is not.

These things- clones - they are feeble. They are not B; no, never.

I will-- set it right; the world must be cleansed. Yes, I can see it now...

What is flawed must be perfected, what is incorrect must be corrected.

See-- see, I can see.

But I am blind.

You really think so?

[goggleboy03]

Because in some ways you remind me of myself.
I have experiance with people like you. Its not hard to guess once you've figured out the basics.

[mukou_tanjoubi]

Of yourself? In what ways?
Experience. I suppose that's rational. But what are-- the basics? How can one ever become accustomed to such a thing?

[goggleboy03]

When I...no. I don't want to talk about it.
I don't know. I suppose once death means nothing to you and nothing shocks you it isn't hard to find anything interesting or normal.

[mukou_tanjoubi]

Don't want to talk about it? Come now...you can tell me.
Yes, that makes sense. If you don't fear or anticipate death (or anything for that matter) then nothing is relevant.

[goggleboy03]

I know what you're trying to do B, and it isn't going to work.

Yeah.
Perhaps sometimes I anticipate it, but that isn't the same.

[mukou_tanjoubi]

What am I trying to do, Matt? Since you think you know so well...

[goggleboy03]

I'm not telling you about myself. I'm not going to talk about...
...neh.
It looks like you're trying to get me to give in. I'm not going to. I may be numb, but I don't have to like what I do at times. Just because you like to play doesn't make it right.

[mukou_tanjoubi]

Trying to get you to give in? Oh no no, I would never-- I just want to know what makes you like me; I want to know what makes you the way you are.

...............
Once I cut a man's tounge out and dragged him to a friend to turn into a human puppet. Cut his skin off and bleed him out and things like that. He died before we finished, and I regretted that he did. I tried to kill him again after he came back was stopped.
I would do it again, if given the chance.

[mukou_tanjoubi]

That wasn't so hard, now was it?
You would do it again-- as would I, but no one, no one else would; no one else would have done it the first time.

Except for me; yet there are few who can empathize. I'm sure you know this as well as I do, but you don't care about empathy, do you? About comfort...?

[goggleboy03]

One story is hardly explaining my dark side.
Of course you would. You're a psychopath.

I'm not as far gone as you, B. I still care about some people things. Nor do I have any delusions that I can clease this or any world.

[mukou_tanjoubi]

Yet.

If you continue down that path-- then you will end up just like me.

[goggleboy03]

Nn.

I know. I have no plans or desire to contiune any further down this path usually. I'm far enough as it is; there may be no turning back but I can stop it here.

[mukou_tanjoubi]

Do you think I would have stopped, given the chance?

"Just stopping"-- it isn't as easy as that, Matt; no, not that easy.

[goggleboy03]

I don't know you that well.

I'm well aware of that. But it doesn't mean it can't be done.
