[ yes, this is why you need friends, blade. so that people can VOUCH FOR YOU!!! ]
They don't have to go through the ordeal of defending me. If we die, then we die. That's just something we've been having to expect all our lives. I'm... glad that Rodya and Gregor are here, really. It doesn't make me feel insane when everybody thinks it's the greatest sin to commit against mankind.
[ Blade figures there can be a few obvious reasons as to why since they're clearly dealing with a shitty company but he isn't going to just assume her thought process here. ]
Because if people die, then they die. That is all there is to it. There is no closure. There are no saving words. You just die, and that's the end.
... For these deaths to occur while feigning that human life is valuable enough that there are restrictions against it such as opening a trial only brought my hopes up and smashed them to the ground.
For some people...when they die, that's it. For some, there is rebirth; there is unceasing agony. A continuance with an inability for any true interruptions.
Yet, even what should be a mercy is only cruelty.
[ A mockery of a justice system. Their lives reduced to rats trapped in cages. Observed for reactions and picked apart for whatever else. ]
...dashing such hopes to bring about despair for their own ends should be as such. But, in turn, vengeance should be visited upon those culpable for this.
... If possible, I would like them to die and allow the senior members to regain control of the ship fully. I've already been getting the feeling that this is all just an experiment.
[ She sighs and looks up at Blade. ]
You must be used to things like this if it was the first thing you thought of.
[ Blade asks, though he pauses, as if trying to remember. It is inadvisable, under normal circumstances.
Perhaps. ]
Perhaps, in a sense. Back on the Xianzhou Alliance, there were those who willingly had their bodies manipulated, and those who unwillingly did. The latter could, without a doubt, be referred to as experiments. Sins committed, reaching for things they thought they understood, but in fact knew little of.
Such arrogance will always bring an inevitable downfall.
In my home world, it was possible to get augments in order to get stronger. If you were stronger, that means you had a better chance at living in The City and fending off attacks. So it was a good thing to have them, generally. Even though they're ridiculously expensive.

They do. This is your second chance.
They likely know that.
[ Blade feels like it deserves worth pointing out, to be quite honest. ]
...The greatest sin?
no subject
Murder.
[ Yuri simply says. ]
... In actuality, the fact that there is a trial at all for a murder to figure out who was the murderer is more than I expected there to be.
no subject
...And why is that so surprising?

... Would you say the same for the willing?
no subject
Those willing inevitably try to coerce or involve those unwilling in said experiments.
[ So...yeah! They all suck to Blade. ]

[ An acknowledgment that certain powers and such can function differently in other worlds or places. Or what having particular alterations meant. ]
This City of yours...was it always so perilous?
[ The way Yuri phrases it seems to indicate that there is an everpresent danger. ]
no subject
[ Yeah. ]
Looting is sometimes encouraged.
no subject
Who is the one who decided as such?
no subject
[ aka i have no freaking idea ]
no subject
...A wretched place to live.

I'll leave you to it.
