S then.

[ trotting along after ]

And that's like... my AlcheME codename thing. I guess.

Stage name...is one way to put it. Stand-in name. You'll remember your "real" name eventually. Though, by that point, you may not want to use it here.

Why not?

Some people don't wish to sully their name in Hell. Or they're a private person. Or maybe they come to feel like they've changed from who they used to be and the stage name becomes the "real" name. A number of reasons. Others start using their "real" name again because it is theirs and they reclaimed it.

... Hell is complicated.

Very much so. Then again, where isn't?

I guess everywhere is complicated.

Existence is complicated.

It sure seems that way.

Not existing is also complicated though. So, best to face it head on. Existence.

[ TAKES A MOMENT TO PROCESS THAT... that's deep, man... ]

[Points]

That's the Game Tower where we sometimes are forced into exercises about mortality and morality. Speaking of existence, did one of them mentioned the potential for death during games?

[ takes a moment to process THAT also ]

Going to take that as a "no". For the record, we come back.

aaa

Eloquently put, dear S! My thoughts exactly!

I don't like that.

Hoh? Which part?

Both...?

Like and dislike have unfortunately little to do with it though. It just is. And all we can do is our best. The only thing we have control over is how we deal with it. So, that said, do you want to live?

Doesn't everyone?

…of course.

Let’s do our best in games then.

That felt like a really significant pause I think

Do you like games? Because there's the arcade.
