[If one is attentive enough, they may be able to hear a low, haunting voice sing;]

[smiles a bit wider] Tear is quite skilled, but has yet to master it.

Though she does use them well.

[glares weakly] Maybe she's not mastered it where you're from.

Oh? Then how about your world?

[trying to sound intimidating. really. ~~really he just sounds kind of annoyed.~~] You're dead, last I checked.

Ah, of course. Forgive me, I'm not very good at staying dead.

We saw to it that you were dead, the second time around. [now he's actually glaring. ...almost.]

And yet I'm here.

Do you need to kill me a third time?

[eyes him]

...No. This place has nothing to do with Auldrant or what you were trying to do. I have no reason to fight you here.

Then what shall you do with me?

... [chuckles wryly] I'd be lying if I said I didn't wish I could trust you again. But that's what got me in trouble in the first place, isn't it? I'm naive.

Naive? That you are.

Do you wish to embrace it, or purge it?

[scoffs]

My naivete? Neither. I'd much rather grow out of it, which I've been working on.

So you will keep a little part of it inside you for the rest of your days? Fascinating.

It's part of who I am, after all.

And what about you? Can you honestly say you care more about your crazy ideas than your own sister?

I love my sister. I won't allow her to live a shackled life.

And yet you'd have killed her if we'd given you the chance. So much for not wanting her to live a shackled life, if you can't handle her opposing you.

Better for her to die than to let the Score control her. I would have made her death painless.

Opposing me, I would have had to kill her too soon...It is a shame.

How are you any better than the Score, if you're forcing people to live how you decide is best? [his tone is honestly curious, he's not accusing him of anything just yet]

Life dependant on the Score is no life at all. It's better for them to die to give rise to those who will use free will.

[tilts his head a little] ...I'm not sure what it is that I'm not quite understanding. How is it free will if you're not giving them any choice...? They're not making any decisions for themselves if you kill them because you think they're wrong, either.

No matter what I do, the originals will never be free from the Score and will never have a true will of their own.

Replicas, however, seem to have quite a will of their own.

I still don't see how killing them gives them any more--

... [glowers] If you're referring to me, I think I'm a special case.

They made their choice. By following the Score for over two thousand years, they chose their deaths.

You believe yourself to be special? How amusing.

They didn't choose anything, you did.

It's either me or Sync, considering we're the only ones that aren't completely mindless pawns made for your sick intentions.
