Week 5 | Tuesday Late night

[ecdyses]

[ It's pretty late, but Hazama figures Yeager might be awake--if not oh well! There is a very light knock at the door because he doesn't want to draw too much attention even though he's out in the open right now. He is also not standing in front of the door at the peep hole but holding up a little drawing of his snake symbol.]

Comments

[ecdyses]

Splendid. In the meantime, I'll keep this extra paper-- writing on napkins has been quite difficult. [ He takes the extra bit of scrap paper and tucks it away into his pocketwatch after folding it.]

[scythegun]

You're welcome to more than just that, if you'd like.

[He's got plenty of paper, he doesn't mind sharing!!

But also...]

Where did you get that? Is that something of yours from home?

[ecdyses]

If you don't mind. [ Taking some more then.]

It is! I actually have a silver collection at home, and Im quite fond of it.

[scythegun]

It's very nice! I'd like to see some of your other pieces sometime, if you have any others here.

[Getting them now may be a little difficult though...]

[ecdyses]

Unfortunately not, but I would be surprised if there's anything left of them.

[scythegun]

Oh? Why's that?

[ecdyses]

Did I forget to tell you? My world was hours away from no longer existing before I came here!

[ Cheerful as ever.]

[scythegun]

[ ]

Well, that's certainly... something. Are you sure about that?

[and he thought his world had it bad???]

[ecdyses]

Quite sure considering the outcome was much the same regardless of which God won. Either it got deleted or destroyed, and there's not much difference between the two, hm?

[...he is not accounting for Ragna's bullshit of somehow basically fixing everything bc protag powers.]

[scythegun]

[Protags have a way of doing that, don't they...]

Well, that's... unfortunate.

[He sounds like he's not sure how to end that.]

What will you do now?

[ecdyses]

[ For several seconds he considers something, before ultimately speaking again. Hazama doesn't do trust, but there was little harm in him speaking freely here.]

You know I'm not an artificial human, right? Technically speaking, I'm made from a substance called the Azure. It's rather complicated but it's what my universe is made of. Normally it's impossible to access the realm of the Azure, but at certain locations there is a gateway to it, a cauldron.

Jumping into it is suicide, it's akin to jumping into pure limitless energy. Before I came here, I did just that. [ He definitely has a crazy grin on his face right now.]

I was expecting to go back or forward in time, but I certainly didn't expect to wind up here!

[scythegun]

[.................]

What were you expecting to go forward in time to, if your world is ending?

[OKAY LISTEN ALL OF THAT WAS SO BRAIN-SHATTERINGLY CRAZY HE JUST HAS TO FOCUS ON SOMETHING DUMB, LET HIM HAVE THIS]

[ecdyses]

Oh, my world has a parallel universe that should have remained stable enough. I was supposed to meet a...friend there.

Relius, the name they wrote for me on the screen in the very beginning.

[ He is immensely happy Relius cannot hear this, but he misses his own brand of crazy actually.]

[scythegun]

Oh, I see. But you wound up here instead? Interesting... I'm assuming you shouldn't have wound up in an entirely unfamiliar world?

[Assuming this is another world and not Blazblue.]

[ecdyses]

Right-- the Azure always calls to itself, so I should be drawn to it.

[ Ohmygod this is true plot of Para all along.]

[scythegun]

[i can't believe we've been blazblued]

Whatever power they used to bring us here is certainly impressive.

[...]

What will you do now that you're no longer trapped to that luggage cart?

[ecdyses]

I've seen better displays of power.

[...]

That was almost more ridiculous than the time I was locked in a room for several months without food or water. But ah, I don't have many options as it were.

[scythegun]

I imagine not. Don't tell me where you're hiding out - I wouldn't want to let that slip.

[More like he doesn't trust himself not to get mad and intentionally let it slip, but ehhh. It's safer not to trust him anyway.]

I do hope you work something out. I wasn't very fond of the luggage cart idea either.

[And definitely not the stripper poles......]

[ecdyses]

I am an intelligence agent, you know. [ That being said he trusts Yeager as little as he can trust anyone, so maybe that counts for something.]

It would have been simpler if they just killed me, but like everyone else they're fools.

[scythegun]

I won't try to deny that. But I'm not surprised that they didn't. We've seen plenty of death here already, after all.

[And strangely enough some people aren't okay with that??? Weird.]

[ecdyses]

...and more to come.

[scythegun]

Ja. I doubt we'll have many left by the time this is over.

[And it will be over at some point. It has to end.]

[ecdyses]

I do hope you'll be able to translate my notes soon.

[ It is an abrupt topic change, but not really.]

[scythegun]

...I'll get to work on them immediately.

[He's not entirely sure what that has to do with the previous topic of conversation, but he's sure there must be some connection even if he can't see it.]

[ecdyses]

Good, good. I should get going now, while the hour is still quiet.

I'll be counting on you.

[scythegun]

[Yeager could ask why Hazama would trust him with this of everyone here, but Yeager decides against it and raises a hand in farewell instead.]

Ja, do try not to be caught! I won't let anyone know you were here.

[He can ask Hazama later, after all.]
