For a surprising change of pace, who is actually in favor of leaving the locals behind? Five hundred thousand odd lives, good as gone. Three hundred fifty of us in safety.

[because everyone who isn't is honestly an idiot.]

No lynching, please, ladies and gentlemen, let's have a civil discussion.

[Coming from a world where his city puts up with the antics of his guild every time, Natsu has a certain degree of loyalty towards anyone who support them in any way no matter how small. That includes feeding housing and most things people would take for granted and trivial.]

I'm in favor of making you eat those words through broken teeth.

[natsu pls calm down]

Why?

[explodewiththerage]

[Good luck with that.]

Because people's lives are not something you can talk about discarding so damn easily.

[He bares his canines threateningly with each word.]

[psychopath]

[to be honest mostly everyone here in exsilium is expendable to jack, but that's not the point.]

It's not like we are going to discard them for good, are we?

[Video]

[explodewiththerage]

[Well sounds like eventually they'll end up clashing.]

I don't know how things work in your world, but where I come from, PEOPLE DIE AND THEY DON'T COME BACK!

[...Unless it's Lisanna...though she doesn't count since parallel world kidnapping and stufff]

If you've not noticed, milord, we can go back in time. So by surviving, we can prevent any of this actually happening.

[jack's smile is like he's talking to a particularly petulant five-year-old :(]

Unless you have a death wish. By all means, stay behind.

[vaccination]

Okay. You're just asking for people to rip you a new one.

[psychopath]

It's not going to do any of us all any good if nobody stops to think of the bigger picture.

audio

[vaccination]

No one should be in favor of leaving anyone behind. But it's what we have to do right now.

[psychopath]

[he hums a little.]

Well, perhaps I've worded that too strongly, but I'm not changing it. There are people vehemently against the idea, and they will tell the Exiles, and you know? Nobody will get to leave amidst the pandemonium.

[beingmegucaissuffering]

I'm in favor of it. Bringing them with us is impossible, and the time machine means that they can later be restored.

Voice

[psychopath]

It is very callous but it's the only way. But if people leak it to the Exiles, the entire plan may go awry...

[beingmegucaissuffering]

It is my sincere wish that we would be able to explain the situation to them in a way that thtey would be able to understand, but people have an unfortunate tendency to prioritize themselves over the community as a whole.

[psychopath]

[finally someone...thing that understands! jack sighs out a breath.]

That's humanity for you. Or humanoids. The whole lot. I'm not looking to start a fight or be called a murderer, I just want them to understand why it has to be done...

[he startles slightly.] Sorry, I went off on a tangent there.

[ Video ]

[celestial_wizard]

I'm not. Even if there's limited space, there has to be another way to help everyone instead of abandoning them to be killed!

[ The idea of being kept safe and sound while others were left behind to die doesn't sit right with her at all. ]

[ Video ]

[psychopath]

What if there isn't a way, Lady Lucy?

[beingmegucaissuffering]

There's no need to apologize. Actually, it seems like we're quite similar in this regard.

[fortissimos]

There's no way I'm leaving. [ huff huff etc. ] I get what they're saying, but I can't just run away. Someone else can have my spot.

[ Video ]

[celestial_wizard]

[ She was hoping you wouldn't ask that, Jack. ]

..if there isn't a way... [ As loathe she is to consider it. ] there's the time travel equipment that the Initiative has. But that isn't a guarantee it'll help by any means. They always -say- that we can go back in time to fix things, but what about that boy's world; what was his name, Elmer? We lost that world, and who knows how many people died there too. And the whole dying and coming back to life... everyone is taking it for granted but THAT has failed too. That man Adam, he never came back to life after he died here.

I don't like the idea of abandoning anyone here. I don't -want- to abandon anyone here, even if there's been tension between the locals and the Transports. [ And... roles reversed she doubted they would have any problem with leaving the Transports behind to save their own bottoms. But she knew her guildmates have some friends among the locals, and she had too - the idea of abandoning -anyone- is just..nauseating. ]

How do we know they really tried every possible way?

[psychopath]

[gurrll are you some kinda knight]

So you would die uselessly here?

[psychopath]

Thankfully.

If it's...well, I don't mean to be rude, but are you some sort of cat?

[beingmegucaissuffering]

I'm not a cat, but I don't think I need to clarify that I'm not exactly human, either.

I'm an agent of the Initiative. Beyond that, does it particularly matter?

[ Video ]

[psychopath]

[he always asks the hard questions, because he likes to watch people squirm.]

We lost that world, but that doesn't mean we'll lose this one too. If we don't take this chance to change things and just stay here and die, it's as good as having given up.

I don't like leaving anyone behind, either [hahahaha no he's lying] but...we don't have time to try everything possible.

[psychopath]

I'm just curious. I've not met a talking...shape of something like you before. May I ask your name?

[beingmegucaissuffering]

Certainly! My name is Kyubey.
