A-alright I don't know who decided to take the joke this far but the crack about me being an insignificant character hasn't been relevant for at least four plot arcs! Come on! If this is just another weird virtual A-T training, I get it. It wouldn't be the first time I've woken up in some weird-ass place... but this full-immersion shit is really pushing it. Calling a guy fictional really isn't funny when... well, it's just not. Just because someone exists in a different reality or medium or... whatever. Doesn't mean they're not real...

Kazu-kun too? I'm sorry they said those things, I don't think they're true.

[lightmyfire]

Well, obviously! Who do these guys think they are? It's not like this is some mega-reality--I don't feel mega-real, at least... Pretty sure I feel the normal amount of real. Too bad

[flameregalia]

I don't really believe anyone who tries to keep us in a cage.

[lightmyfire]

Exactly, they'll say anything to throw us off. Whoever 'they' are.

[flameregalia]

I forgot to mention before, but this isn't an AI. I'd like to meet with you discuss some things when you have a free moment.

[callbacks]

honestly the webcomic character theory makes a lot more sense than anything thats ever actually happened to me
on the other hand some of the shit that goes down heres almost as bizarre so you wont hear too many people buying into the hype

[a long moment of silence and then]

Hahah... hah...

[lightmyfire]

Th-that's not...

[lightmyfire]

I knew this was some kind of stupid joke...! Look, we already saved the world and the sky and the President of the United States so fuck off with your psychological training mind games already! ... Whoever you are!

DONE

[lightmyfire]

Fuck you! Get out of my A-T and show yourself so I can kick your ass!

[flameregalia]

I don't blame you for being upset with me. I'm glad you got away safely from that fight. I'm sorry it happened that way, but I can't change how it ended.

[flameregalia]

Although I guess being alive again now, "ended" might not be correct.

[lightmyfire]

I-I'm not upset with you, I'm upset with... I don't know! This just can't... be real...

[lightmyfire]

If I were a fictional character I wouldn't be from a web comic. The more I think about it, the more my life was obviously a seinen manga.

[flameregalia]

You're not dead. I'm just alive again somehow. I suppose they consider that some consolation for caging me again. In that way, maybe it would've been better if I'd stayed like I was.

[lightmyfire]

DON'T FUCKING SAY THAT!

[lightmyfire]

Wh-where are you?!

[flameregalia]

Now you're upset.

I'm at my salon. They gave me a small business loan to open one here. I'm thinking of opening it on Monday. You can stop by, if you promise not to spoil the surprise.

[lightmyfire]

I'M NOT UPSET!

[flameregalia]

I see. Is that all you have to say, Kazu-kun?

[lightmyfire]

Just t-tell me where to find you. 'My salon' isn't all that helpful.

[flameregalia]

You aren't going to cry, are you? It was bad enough to see you like that before.

[librariansheart]

I don't think anyone believes they aren't real, so I wouldn't worry too much about that. They tell that to everyone who arrives, though. Ah, are you all right? Do you need someone to show you around?

[lightmyfire]

I'm not--I didn't--there was so much smoke...

[flameregalia]

It didn't affect you at all? So you're that sort of man.
