i’m not trying to spill all our secrets. i’m just… warning you it could happen.

[becomemod]

I'll keep it in mind.

[ballies]

[ sometimes you share a neural link with a guy your entire life and you’re used to there being very few secrets between the two of you. it’s fine. ]

I just wanted to make sure it’s not going to… i dunno. mean punishment for people, or something like that. or if there’s a way to get permission for it, or…


i mean, the room i can keep quiet. probably.

[becomemod]

We haven't really had teams like this before, so it's hard to say what would happen. This is a lot more people than we've had before.

It's not an issue if you need to use Backspace on him later if he needs it though.

[ballies]

-- wait, so... there were eight of you, but we're neither of us are the first group like this to show up here?

oh, I wouldn't ask about that. i'd just use it.

[becomemod]

There were 12 of us originally. 35 people is a lot more than that.

Good, it's meant for that.

[ballies]

what happened to the other four?

[becomemod]

[ A pause. ]

The died in the battle last month.

[ballies]

[ ... ]

Where the moon fell?

[becomemod]

That's when it happened.

[ballies]

[ ah ]

I'm sorry for your loss.

[becomemod]

Thank you.

[ballies]

who were they?

i know there's that monument, but it's not open yet so i can't just go and look myself.

[becomemod]

It's... kinda hard to talk about them. It's still fresh. Sorry.

[ballies]

[ the mystery four.... ]

that's okay.

[becomemod]

Thank you, Tama-san.
