[Settling down on one of the cube chairs and drumming his fingers against the cube center table in frustration]

What a fucking mess.

[hexsplosive]

[she has a robot spider skittering around her feet for some. . . reason]

Personally, I think it could have gone much, much worse.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Must resist. urge. to step on it.]

Always a beacon of optimism, Infinity.

[hexsplosive]

[DON'T STEP ON HER SPIDER FAMILIAR. . .!!]

Thanks! I try.

[she does not]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I noticed that you were the only one to walk away from this mess uninjured.

[hexsplosive]

[. . .]

Funny how luck works, isn't it?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Is it luck? You were one of the two people at the end of the puzzle-solving game said you didn't want to get hurt if it could be avoided.

Isn't this what you wanted?

[hexsplosive]

[links her hands behind her head, mouth curving into an empty smile]

Yes, yes. . . I suppose it is.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

And no pesky feelings arising about seeing the rest of your unit get hurt?

[hexsplosive]

[. . . DO NOT!!!]

Nope! None at all. My withered black heart only feels relief that I escaped the majority of the maiming and violence.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Then it seems you were the perfect choice for the heart, after all.

[hexsplosive]

Then in that case, I'm happy to have assisted future is now in such a useful way. You can count on me to sit on the sidelines and watch to save the rest of you the emotional turmoil from doing so!

[she's. taking this and running with it]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

We do need an objective observer in all of this. A true scientist, if you will.

[hexsplosive]

[goodness she will find the use of the phrase "objective observer" hilarious once she gets certain memories back]

And who better for the job than li'l old Infinity, hm? But though I may be a woman of science now, I almost think I prefer a different title to "scientist."

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Mistress of Mayhem.

[hexsplosive]

Acceptable! But I was thinking more along the lines of "storyteller."

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

That would heavily contradict the "objective" part of it.

[hexsplosive]

Would it? Not if it's an objective recounting of the events that occur from a third-person, totally neutral point of view.

[more like a historian than a storyteller, but all right]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

And do you see yourself as all of those things?

[hexsplosive]

I do. Do you?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I see someone who is practical. Not sure yet if I'd go so far as to say you're objective.

You enjoy fun too much for that.

[hexsplosive]

Oho ho ho, are you suggesting that "fun" isn't objective?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Did I say fun? I meant chaos.

[hexsplosive]

Which is also objective, riiiiight?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I thought chaos enjoyed tipping the balance.
