> Look back to R1.> "I can just pretend I have no idea what she's talking about."
> "Right."> Is there anywhere immediately available to sit?
> Gesture next to Reimu.> "May I?"
> "Thanks."> Have a seat next to Reimu.> Is Reimu also sitting?> "And thanks for having my company, too, after what I did. ...I...hope you know I do have a lot of respect and even admiration for you, Reimu."
> "Still, it's something I did without asking. And then there's the thing I did just now, even if it ended up not going anywhere."
Well, this game happened.
> "That's what I plan on doing."> Look to where R2 disappeared to, then look back at R1.> "...Would it be possible for her - the other you - to come home if she wasn't herself?"
> "I mean, would it be okay if she were part of a perfect fusion with someone else. Like me, or maybe Lilith."
> "Well, yeah, I wouldn't force her into anything, but I'm asking you because I wouldn't even bring it up with her if you didn't want it to happen. If you don't want it to happen, then that's that."
> Give a dejected sigh.> "All right."
> Lower the volume of our voice.> "What sort of experimentation *would* you permit involving you, anyway?"> Look toward where the movement noise is coming from.
> Look back to R1 with a frown.> "I'm not going to unmake her out of spite or anger or anything childish like that. I'm just asking if there's anything you'd be interested in and willing to try."
> "Oh. I didn't change you at all, and in her case, it's necessary for her to be different from you in some ways. I can't make exact clones."
> "A handful of physical changes, as well as support for our cause."
> "I mean, you've seen a number of them, since the differences are pretty obvious."> Blink.> "...Do you want me to make you look like that too, maybe? I probably could with the mallet."
> Look back at the woman to see if she has emerged. Give her a curious look as we do.
