THERE ARE MONSTERS HERE?!

Why not? It's not like losing one insignificant "prisoner" will mean anything.

- XII

I believe the prisoner in question would think it means quite a lot.

Then he/she/it cares too much, clearly.

- XII

Why do you undertake to preserve your own existence?

See, there's the problem. By definition of what I am, I don't exist.

Next question?

- XII

Something wrote those words.

How do you define yourself?

I'm nobody, simple as that.

- XII

A collective of none. Do you deny you have any individual identity or agency, then?

Of course not. Nobodies have unique identities too!

Only the special ones, though.

- XII

You're special? What're the normal ones like? How are you different?

You seem to be rather interested in this.

How about we continue in person?

- XII

That's fine.

Red eyes, white hair almost to my knees. Female.

See you at lunch.

- XII

I'll be with others. Mostly altruists.

You might want to wait.

Oh? Well, I don't like waiting, but I'll make an exception.

Just for you.

- XII

What if that one insignificant prisoner were you?

Like I'd be stupid enough to ever let that happen.
