This is Gai Tsutsugami. I can't answer right now; leave a message and I'll get back to you later.

[Well things got complicated and Shu sort of went off in the wrong direction. ]

Da'ath revived you and Mana. Both of you came back to fulfill your roles. You sliced my arm off the moment I saw you alive again. It was to steal the Void Genome back.

[Gai was expecting to hear many things when he asked about what occurred after his death. This, however, was NOT on the list. Being revived? Slicing Shu's arm off to steal the Void Genome?

For once in his life, Gai doesn't know what to think. What disturbs him more than any of these other revelations is the fact that Segai was right-- the man was telling the truth.

Why...]

So I was Adam after all.

[He'd been so sure that it was Shu she had chosen, not him... what was going on?]

Edited 2013-02-01 07:36 (UTC)

That's right, Gai. You're adam.

[Shu had been asked to take the seat of adam but he fully declined it. So all the rights went to Gai.]

Da'ath asked me if I'd join Mana and I said no. [He rejected Mana again even after everything.]

That's why you were chosen. You said yes without hesitation.

[The fact that Shu turned Mana down makes him somewhat angry; not that he can blame the other boy for it, but didn't he realize yet that it was the only way to put an end to everything?

Apparently not.]

Of course I did. Someone had to be the one to take responsibility for bringing everything to an end.

[In truth, he doesn't even know what he's saying. He's just hoping that his bluffing will be convincing enough to Shu that Shu will believe he does.]

[Accepting Mana would mean leaving Inori which he isn't going to do.]

Do you realize what you're saying?

[Shu doesn't think you do, Gai. He still hasn't fully explained himself so he's sure Gai's just bullshitting.]

[GAI NEVER BULLSHITS. Except in the rare case where he's caught so completely off-guard that he has no other choice.]

Did you really think everything was going to end with my death?

I thought it was over already, but I was wrong. Yes, I honestly thought that everything would end with your death back there in Roppongi.

So when I confronted you again I asked you why were still at it. You said that I'd never understand it.

And you still don't. That much is obvious.

[That commentary just sort of kills any motivation Shu had to explain the situation to Gai. So he figures it doesn't matter anymore and decides to stay quiet. ]

You can figure the rest out on your own.

[Gai is opening his mouth to snap back a reply to that when a sudden stabbing pain shoots up his arm courtesy of the virus crystals that are covering it, transforming what he was going to say into a grunt of pain.]

[Shu can't see that well but it doesn't take his sight to realize that Gai either has the apocalypse virus or is injured severely.]

What's wrong?

[Damn it. Of all the times...]

Nothing. It's not important.

Don't lie. I know you have the virus. You're hurt, aren't you?

It's just the virus-- no one here can do anything about it. I'll have to wait until this is over with for it to go away. But I'm not going to die from it.

Please don't be reckless when you still have it.

I'll be fine.

[The only thing Gai hates more than feeling vulnerable is showing any sort of vulnerability to others.]

Okay.

I can't meet up with you unless I get some help walking. You'll be on your own for now. Take care of yourself.

Hmm.

[And that's all he'll say in response. He's got a lot to think about right now, and most of it isn't good.]
