I'm catching up, is that so bad?

No, of course not.

You're working, right? On what?

On the calculations required to visit another world that I have yet to explore.

Is your wife going with you?

My spouse comes with me sometimes, yes.

Your family looks happy. I passed a lot of pictures on my way up.

That's because we are happy, Ao. Why wouldn't we be?

Is it nice? Being happy?

Obviously.

Better than the alternative.

What, reality? Sorry, I've never been happy and stupid, so I wouldn't know.

No, you imbecile. Better than being unhappy. This is reality.

Do you honestly believe this could be your reality? Is this all that perfect to you? Pure, and unblemished, and 'normal'?

Obviously I do. You're the one who's crazy.

You're not wrong. Ahahaha.

Anyway, what do you even know about me?

That you're annoying? And that you have impressive artistic skills.

Wowwww, that's not much at all! So why did you invite me to your house again?

Politeness.

Do you remember that drinking game we played? With Vergil and those bartenders and that kid with green hair? I thought we learned a lot about each other back then.

I don't remember anything like that.

You're the only one I've ever felt a little sorry for.

So I guess that's what this really is, isn't it? You already know as well as I do that some things are too good to be true. You're just giving up on everyone else.

[ he's quiet at that ]

Even taking that in consideration.

If I admitted it's too good to be true.

Why does it matter if I decide to stay?

For one thing, you'd be admitting this is really the best you'll ever do. Are your loved ones even here? Is that all you want, to sit in a big house with too much stuff and pretend they're right outside your door? I guess the dolls are good enough replacements?

I'm not so needy I need them with me at all times. They're happy with their own lives.

They're not. You're leaving them for empty copies that won't suffer in front of you.
