Those things aren't Digimon, I don't think. [Ken peers off screen, likely out the window at the worms crawling around.] First yesterday's shower of meteors, and now these overly large worms.

Does anyone know why things are getting more aggressive? Is it because of the revolutionaries?

I don't think the deities need a reason to plague us with meteors and worms. Are you safe?

[oceantrauma]

I am. [Doesn't mention he plans to go to the Jasmine Dragon.]

Does that mean the deities do this sort of thing often? I don't recall it getting this bad before. Other than the desert. And the zombies.

...maybe it was just that time again.

[othersdie]

[Yeah, that's not safe.]

They must've remembered that we haven't had any terrible curses recently.

[oceantrauma]

That's no reason to do this to us, though.

[othersdie]

When have they ever needed a reason?

[oceantrauma]

You're right. I still don't understand why they trap us here at all.

[othersdie]

Entertainment? Experimentation?

Whatever their reasons are, I doubt that being threatened by a dissenting faction is encouraging them to go easy on us.

[oceantrauma]

Those are...that's just sick!

Trample over anyone that doesn't agree with them? Even if they don't know what we think or don't think?

It's just sick.

[othersdie]

It is, but it's not surprising.

I don't trust the dissenters any more than the deities, though.

[oceantrauma]

I don't trust them either, but this is still wrong.

[othersdie]

For now, there's nothing we can do without potentially worsening the situation.

[oceantrauma]

You're right.... But I can't just leave everyone there.

[othersdie]

If you decide that you need to do something, please don't do it alone.

[oceantrauma]

[He has to smile to that. How many times has he heard something like that?]

Okay.... I won't. If I think of anything, I'll run it by you, first.

[othersdie]

Thank you.

[He'd like to say more, but stops himself at the risk of saying anything overly sentimental.]

[oceantrauma]

The same goes for you. At least keep me up to date as much as you can, please?

[Ken isn't stopped by any such thing.]

[othersdie]

I will. I'll tell you if I hear anything.

[oceantrauma]

Thank you, Justin-san.

Be careful.

[othersdie]

You too.
