Uh... it's another way of saying you're a pretty good actor.

You do that a lot? LARP?

Not personally, but I know a couple guys who take that sort of thing pretty seriously. It's almost like an art for 'em.

Fair enough. Some Syndicates and stuff out there are pretty committed to their whole... uh, style? Aesthetic? That kind.

Syndicates...

Rocchan, are you part of the underworld?

Not usually. There's versions of me that are.

[ Definition of underworld pending but she gets the general gist of it. ]

...versions?

[Sounds like you're a whole story]

You know parallel universes and stuff?

Sometimes we borrow strengths that other versions of ourselves have to give us a little extra boost in missions and all.

[ The curse of being ICly aware of your own gacha mechanics. ]

[Sora stares at Rodion for a few seconds, then nods]

I believe I have an idea of what you mean.

[Dang, I brought Sora from the route where she doesn't get the memories of all the other routes, haha. She'd be nodding all 'yeah I get it completely']

Oh great, saves me the time of having to explain it all!

[ Since she's not the expert, she really doesn't know how to explain it in a better way. ]

[just like nodding along in the bg here... yeah sometimes you just know about the gacha.]

You get used to it after a bit.

It was pretty weird the first time...

[ Thanks Yi Sang and your freak tech. ]

No kidding. Can't say I like the idea of some of those other Gregors...

['is this mostly about bistro gregor' yeah.]

[huh

simply nods and accepts this]

[ Both Sora and Harley being like 'yeap' is so funny to me like yeah this is girl hobbies. ]

[yeah! girl's night is just breaking the laws of space and time for fun. ]

Like . . . that mirror thing you mentioned before?

Oh, yeah. It's that!

...

Y'know, I don't know how I feel about the idea of another me running around somewhere in the...multiverse. I mean, it's in my name and everything.

Okay you realize you're gonna have to elaborate on that one.

It's as if every answer creates two questions more, hm?

[She finds that intriguing, truthfully!]

Hey hey, are we asking about me or our current situation here?

Oh, it's about you. The current situation answers half and creates only one question more, you answer one and create two.

[In other words, Rodion is fascinating, more than the ship shenanigans, in Sora's eyes, haha]

Well, I guess one of these two things is less concerning.

[ This is very person-dependent but probably better to be curious about whatever is going on in her world than panic about their lockdown. ]

I swear I've had nightmares about exams that went on forever before... every time I thought I was at the end of the booklet, more pages would appear.
