...
*Stops for a moment and ponders*
I believe I see the truth now.

@Multifarious

*Pauses as a mixture of confusion and hope briefly glimmers in my eyes*
You... you do?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

You never even asked me, and I’m sure so many others. Then again, maybe it’s “too hard for you to do what has to be done.”

@Multifarious

I've asked enough! And now that the stars have aligned and salvation is finally within my reach, you want me to talk it through with you? Just for you to do the same and ignore it? He's clearly no better than the Data from my timeline or he wouldn't have activated the System change early!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

Is it being “too hard to do” the truth, or what you tell yourself instead of thinking about how wrong it is? I’m sure you tell everyone that it’s either kill Data, or get lost, and you don’t listen to them just like you haven’t today. That can change.

@Multifarious

*Clenches my fist*
You. Have. No. Idea. I'm done trusting you people. You've burnt that bridge.

... No.

@Multifarious

I gave up everything to come to this time and save the future. And when that failed, I gave myself to saving the one person who got me through the nightmare that we grew up in. And when I finally try to act on it, every single person has turned me away because it’s too hard to do what has to be done. You have no right to lecture me about justice!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

As if. You think I’m just dismissing all this talk if a horrible future?

@Multifarious

Like everybody else, you’ll do nothing about it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

This is what I meant about no one listening... I want to do right by this. Even if you didn’t make it out of here, I’d still want to look into it deeply, but I’d prefer that you not die.

@Multifarious

For what? You’ll let it go like all the rest and I’ll lose the one shot I have to save the people I care about.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

I will invoke the protective custody rights and procedures of my people for you. I’m begging you, don’t kill yourself here.

@Multifarious

Why? Why do you want everyone I love to die??

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

The number of times I could have crushed you instantly and chose not to should be reason enough to give up.
*All the orbs flying throughout the box suddenly stop in the trajectory and shoot into you directly from all sides simultaneously*

@Multifarious

*Does my best to dodge as many as I can*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

*It begins to ricochet off the walls, bouncing all around. I fire off a volley of many more blasts that all do the same, hitting you and I both randomly but doing no harm to me whatsoever*

@Multifarious

*Attaches same-charge magnetic fields to the walls and increases their intensity by the second*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

*You slam into the transparent presence of another wall, as more form on all sides of us, trapping us in a very small space together*
Why? We don’t listen to each other here, clearly.
*Holds my palm toward you, another cyan orb forming and pulsating in it*

@Multifarious

*Warps its path to miss me and slams my fist against the invisible wall*
