...now that the gateways have been opened and exposed? Maybe. Maybe not exactly the same things, but something similar. Items, stuff like that. It depends.
... It would be great if the universe was more forthcoming with how, exactly, it's willing to help us. [She's tired.] Having to kill the host every single time is counterproductive.
Trust me, I get it. What I'm most worried about is what exactly we're supposed to be helping it with. We know it's about the darkness and choosing how to help the core, but...what then?
You accepted the universe's offer to become its personal errand boy— But you seriously don't know what's going to happen once we achieve whatever the fuck we're working towards here?
A bunch of murders was never what Lune and I agreed to. We agreed to help try and find the source and stabilize the core itself. That was always the deal. Once that was done, the universe would be in alignment again.
But now there are all kinds of new factors being added. Like the gateways, and the way we have to purify people.
How did the universe approach you in the first place? Lune's told me it promised something in return— But it must have been one hell of a sales pitch if you never thought to dig a little deeper.
Oh. [...] We were called here on our own time, and we agreed to stay and help. Lune has his own things he wants, and I...need help finding something important. If I help the universe, maybe it'll help me.
It was like...a voice that called out, or like an instinct. It just felt like something we were supposed to do and we changed directions to come to this place. Lune and I are both used to traveling to different places so maybe we didn't even think it was weird. We had a responsibility.
[...] I don't know what exactly Lune was doing, but I was already looking through different worlds. It wasn't hard to come here when guided.
You were looking through different worlds, searching for that "something." What was it? It must be something you'd risk your life for, if it drove you to accept the universe's offer.
It's fine if that's the case, too. [Smirking at him... before her expression becomes a little more sombre.] But I hope you didn't sell your soul just for the sake of everyone else.
...my heart's mine. Even if I want to make sure everyone here gets out safe and even if I want answers to find what I'm looking for, I'm not giving up my freedom that easily. Don't worry about that.
I'm sure. There are things we're bound to do, but that doesn't mean we can work around the rules a little. We can still make our own choices and opinions.

What exactly did Lune say to you?
no subject
That there's someone's peace of mind they want ensure, and that they wouldn't earn it if they let this opportunity pass.

Can you elaborate on that? About how you two were called here?

It's...more of a someone than a something. And it's someone really, really important that I have to get back.

What? Someone you're in love with?
