"Slasher Face" Jean

[restingslasherface]

1. You're so like me; who took your power from you?

2. Is it really me you're arguing with when we talk?

3. "O sorrow; you are better than a well-beloved."

4. We have a long talk to have when you understand why I'm angry.

5. You remind me of someone from the Nests, but when your life of peace was taken from you, you rose to it. How did you do that?

6. You mean the world to me, but do you understand, really understand, what you've asked of me?

7. The situation on the ground here is your fault. Face it before you become an obstacle I can't justify sparing. Please.

8. The world you understand sounds so alien to the one I know. I need to know more.

9. You seem fun. That's weird! Doctors aren't fun!

10. I'm not sure you understand that I've never had what you seem to want from me. I only know the shape of it from seeing others.

[batteryacid]

Is number eight for me?

[restingslasherface]

No! But you're present.

[batteryacid]

[Eddie looks over the list again. The ones that could possibly apply to him are in short supply, and yet...]

Do we argue? I've never thought so.

[Another question to narrow down the options.]

[restingslasherface]

Not to my knowledge!

[batteryacid]

...so what are the Nests?

[lasthumanvoice]

[Cecil is reading the list over and over again.]

I think I'm here. But I don't know where.

[restingslasherface]

You're correct.

[lasthumanvoice]

The first and the eighth seem most likely. I know for certain I am not 2, 4, 7 or 9.

[restingslasherface]

The first!

[lasthumanvoice]

What power? Who said I ever had any power at all?

[hyliasblessing]

I'm quite concerned that I might be number 6...

[restingslasherface]

[extended, meaningful coughing]

[hyliasblessing]

Ah.

May I ask you to elaborate?

[restingslasherface]

Whatever else my home is, it's my home. The world familiar to me; one full of people like me. If I've been its victim, so have they. If it's such an awful place, what does it mean about me if I abandon it for an alien world? One where I don't speak the language, or know the people? My fight only ended because I died.

You're so eager to go back to Hyrule and you don't hear that your reasons are the same as saying that I should go back to help my world. What makes your home worth saving and mine not?

[hyliasblessing]

...Jean, I think some of these conjectures you're making about my feelings are not in very good faith, and that hurts me.

[apocryphalarchivist]

Am I maybe 8?

I've never been particularly good at guessing games, however, so I may be off the mark...

[restingslasherface]

You are not present, infovore. Maybe if you'd ever followed up after our rather unpleasant first meeting you would be.

[apocryphalarchivist]

Ah. ...I apologize, Jean. With the hectic pace of life, I had truly meant to follow up, but things have been slipping between my fingers. Not using this as an excuse, but explanation.

Should you be willing to agree to a second chance, I'd like to make this right between us. If not, I will understand, of course.

[restingslasherface]

Zelda's trust buys you one chance. Spend it well.

[lovinglefthand]

I sort of feel like 2 or 4 could be about me...Never in my life has anyone described me as a 'fun doctor'.

Even if they're not, though, you're still right. I was out of line. I have some issues of my own that I'm working on, and it was wrong of me to project those onto you.

...I would like it if we could have a frank discussion about our respective societies someday, but I understand if you would rather just not. The mission comes first.

[restingslasherface]

Four is right. We'll talk, about a death at the hands of a hero.

[lovinglefthand]

Perverse as it might sound, I'd like that. Even if it's a terrible conversation, at least we'll be talking. And, I hope, communicating.

[deaths_head]

...shot in the dark, but I reckon could be numero 4's for me.

[restingslasherface]

Wrong, but you're here.
