Trapped between the Devil and Tower

((ooc: Liz is suffering from Minato never existing so she may be a bit odd))
Action 1 - Park
[Elizabeth was in the park, petting a cat, looking less amused by the world and more irritated by it as she talked to it]
So here we are in a fake world filled with fakes. Fitting since mine was destroyed, did you know that? The one I was tasked to aid in its protection lost because not a single one of these humans had the courage to sign a simple contract. [She offers it a bit of fish and sighs] I suppose I should be happy that my brother's world found someone, but he was chosen to deal with those things, and ultimately that led to my sister being able to help but to sit at the sidelines and watch. It almost makes one wish to see these things lost to some monster that would devour them. Not like the Joker curse, that was apparently something in all of them but something to just destroy them, since that was all they apparently dreamed of.
Action 2 - The streets
[Its cold out and Elizabeth seems to be collecting wood for a fire when a drone man comes out of its stupor for a second and goes on about something dronish. A little girl appears next to Liz and giggles in a sinister way before uttering "Sir... Will you die for me?" as the drone just drops dead and Liz continues on her business, stopping only to put on the hat the drone was wearing.]
Its not even the right color....

[His voice sounded very small now. Even if it wasn't shot from caroling so much, it would be now regardless.]

Date: 2011-12-22 07:11 pm (UTC)So them being "erased" wasn't a lie after all. He had disappeared, and because of that Aigis was forced to fight Death. And failed. And the whole world followed suit.
But, he's here now. What did that make him?]

2. I'm real.
>3. It doesn't matter.
Right. What he is was never his concern. The main thing now is to convince Liz to stop this.]
No need.

Date: 2011-12-22 05:44 pm (UTC)[Bazett looks even more awkward than usual dressed in her drone husband's suit, which is a little too big for her. Plus, she had pulled two consecutive all-nighters between being droned and then piecing together her notes.]
It is just the town playing games with us again.

Are you?

Date: 2011-12-22 06:01 pm (UTC)[She is not sure what she can say in response to that. How did you try to comfort someone who had lost their entire world?]
Perhaps...there was a purpose to the destruction of your world? My superior always said that whatever happens in life, whether for good or bad, always has a purpose, even though sometimes the purpose is unknown to anyone but God. And at other times, it is not for us to judge whether some event is good or bad because what seems good can actually turn out to be bad, and what seems bad can actually turn out to be good...
[For some reason, she thinks that her words will probably not be of any help.]

Date: 2011-12-22 06:49 pm (UTC)[The fact that a world has been lost through inaction is tragic. It is more tragic when her words hit so close to home. Because of Bazett's own inaction in her dreams, she had almost lost her allies. It is only slightly less painful to know that she had only lost her memories.]
There was a time before now when I would have told you that you are wrong. I would have told you that I, at least, would have fought.
[But she had not. When she had been offered the choice, she chosen the coward's route and allowed the girl named "Rin Tohsaka," who she can no longer consciously remember, choose to bear the burden. She had chosen to let that girl, as well as others, be forgotten by the town and then receive nothing but spite as a reward for their sacrifices.]
Now I know better. Perhaps, it is as you say--the people who are actuall "real" are gone, at least in our memories, and it is us "fakes" who remain.

But we would never be able to confront our destiny or break out of the routines if everything was to be destroyed.
