...It's complicated. I'd thought, based on my last memory... that I killed someone I cared about. The first person I ever cared about, actually. And that I was going to get a bunch of other people killed, too, because I'd given up.

It's all still pretty confusing, but it sounds like that didn't happen, at least.

[constellationprize]

Oh, well - if that's not what happened, then isn't that a good thing...?

[rollplayinghouse]

...That part is definitely good, yeah.

[constellationprize]

[ slowly, like she doesn't quiiite get it ]

... Is there a bad part...?

[rollplayinghouse]

Well, we were still trapped in a killing game. And a lot of people were still dead. Possibly all of humanity was dead but the five or six of us who were left in the game? I wasn't sure.

1/2

[constellationprize]

2/4 actually

[constellationprize]

[ looks away, favoring one of the less fishy walls ]

Oh. Um -

3/4

[constellationprize]

[ hold on a second ]

[constellationprize]

- Wait - Maki! That's...!

[ awful? ]

[rollplayinghouse]

[s...shrugs]

I'd already decided it didn't matter what happened, before, because there's no way it was good. There's some chance now that it wasn't quite as bad as I thought.

[constellationprize]

But that's still - ...

... Well... If you learned something recently that made you feel more hopeful, then that's good, right...?

[rollplayinghouse]

...

I'm not sure how to feel about all of it, really. I didn't know the "last remnants of humanity" part until this memory, but it sounds like maybe it's not true, anyway...?

But, it's at least changed one thing I was unhappy about. So there's that much.

[constellationprize]

Um, but - for all of humanity to be gone except for you and your friends... ... There are a lot of humans, aren't there? I hope that isn't true...

[ well ]

- Um, either way, if you found something that's made you feel better, then I think that's good.

Is there something else on your mind?
