[ that's fair, she's just crazy. ]

... I take it your whole game ended on a good note? All the people who had to be killed came back and everything?

[agleam]

They did, yeah. And I know you probably won't agree, but that doesn't make it okay.

[bxkautx]

It does. [ sorry. but she does pause. ] But I also think it's okay because it was an accident.

Like... you tried to do it a nicer, faster way.

[agleam]

If someone tried to kill you in a quicker way but ended up trampling you to death with a horse, you'd consider that okay?

[bxkautx]

Uh. Talked much to the kids from Heaven? At this point if someone did it on purpose I think they'd be pretty justified.

[agleam]

[after a moment]

...If you think people are right to want to hurt you for things you've done, why did you do them?

[bxkautx]

... Got bored. Needed to do something.

[agleam]

I don't think that's true.

[bxkautx]

You can believe what you want, but it is the truth.

Not everyone's as sweet as you.

[agleam]

I don't think you're sweet, but I think in general you'd pick not hurting people over hurting them if you have a choice. You haven't killed anyone here.

[bxkautx]

... Well. It would be a hassle. I don't have any powers here to work with, so.

[agleam]

Right.

[give memory]

[bxkautx]

[ seems like maybe she had a retort of some kind but... memory time... from 3:32:37 to 3:35:03. ]

[agleam]

[hmmmmmmmmm

after a moment:]

...You were in somebody else's body?

[bxkautx]

Yeah.

Felt weird.

[agleam]

[...]

What would you getting out have meant for them?

[bxkautx]

It would have been a clean swap. A trade.

They could stay in the void and we could go home.

[agleam]

Aren't trades normally supposed to give the other person something good in return...?

[bxkautx]

A trade is just an exchange. The value of what's being traded is up to the people involved to decide.

And Olivia wanted it.

[agleam]

Why did she want it?

[bxkautx]

She wanted to see her parents again. To live in a moment before they died—forever.

[agleam]

[that - makes him pause, expression first going slack with surprise and then tightening.]

Does she actually want that, Alex, or is she grieving?

[bxkautx]

The two aren't mutually exclusive.

[agleam]

It's forever. Is she going to want the same thing in a month? A year?

[bxkautx]

How long does she have to want it before you accept it? It had already been four years by the time she reached out to me.
