As I have said, I do not truly need Phainon to become Queen. I only need him to climb up the ranks.

If I can observe you, then you could serve the same purpose.

And what does that entail, exactly?

Would you be surprised if I said I'd need to experiment on you?

No.

Experiment how?

Since I would be shooting in the dark, the first step would be to take samples of your blood - and then of varying tissues. There are different approaches, and most of them will fail. Obviously.

But the real question is whether you would be willing to let me do such a thing. Just because Phainon is not interested does not mean I am not also willing to carry him to victory, no matter how many times I have to destroy my body for it.

... so if you have someone to run those experiments on, you don't have a need to do them to yourself?

Only for the purpose of figuring out this place's power. This is assuming you do reach the position of Queen, and that I am willing to slow down enough to let you.

Any experimentation on myself is still on the table, so do not think you can convince me to stop with that.

[rolls his eyes]

The real problem is that drawing my blood... is drawing from my stories. Stories are a Constellation's life's blood, basically. I may not even be able to recall what fragment of stories you take with that.

[ what the fuck. Now he extra wants to examine his blood but he will cool his jets ]

And what of your skin?

Any part of me.

[when he said he scattered his stories he meant all of himself...]

Of course you'd be infuriating even as a test subject.

Did you think I was being metaphorical when talking about my stories?

No, because I already know you do not do well with metaphors. But even then I could not possibly imagine you're holding them together in your body.

They're in a library, technically.

[... the library is a fucking mess.]

[ this is a man who has found out he is essentially a computer program and he's still giving the most judgamental look to Kim Dokja ]

Is that so.

That is so.

Fine. Your stories held together in the library inside your body or mind.

Yes. Now you get it.

As I have said before. You are infuriating even as a test subject.

That's me. Infuriating in every situation.

[ he just. sighs ]

I will see if I can use you. But if not, our competition still stands. I could not trust Phainon to ally himself with you, in any case.

Strange way to put it, but that's fine.

Like I said, I don't plan to let him get to Queen before me.

I do wonder if the title will truly ever be reached by only one person. If it is a matter of waiting it out, Phainon's already lived for countless of years.

But why do you have such drive? Is it truly just to end your existence? Or is it for the sake of your servants?

For my Servants, yes.

But also... for others.

I'm not completely settled on my wish. It could be that end. Or it could be... finding a way to support things without going back to how it was before.

...mm. That would not be a terrible way to use this power. And perhaps simply having a goal is better for you.
