Both of them were dear friends, and I'm going to miss them.
[She's polite to everyone, and she makes friends easily. But there's a select few that she holds close to her heart, and Nameless and Lavi were two of them.]
I know it sounds silly, to be so close to someone after just a couple weeks, but...I don't know. Part of me wishes it had been me in either of their places.
The same planet, but at different times. Based on what he told me, I think I'm about 300 years ahead of him.
It was...nice, to speak to someone who knew Finnish. There's not a lot of Finns left anymore, and I don't usually get to speak my native language except around my family nowadays. I know we can all understand each other anyway here, but talking in Finnish made me miss home a little less.
His accent is awful though. I don't know where he's originally from, but he's definitely a polyglot.
Yeah. But...I guess I'll have to get used to him not being here. It's not like we can stop tomorrow from happening.

I think the technology here falls somewhere in-between your world and mine. A lot of the stuff here is stuff my world used to have, before the Rash happened.
By records from the time, at the start of the outbreak there were over 7 billion people on the planet. Right now, there's about 290,000 people alive in my world.

I just...don't understand it. He's not that stupid.

... Sorry. The way things turned out... It's probably the last thing you would've wanted.

... You and Lavi... I heard you speaking some strange language to each other. Did you come from the same place?

Makes sense that that would be a comforting thing to find in a place like this.
[... and that it would be painful to lose someone like that.]

[She wants to fight it with every fiber of her being. She wants to be mad and rip down the very foundations of hell. Nobody who has died has deserved the injustice of it all.
But she's also one person. What can she do?]
...don't do anything stupid, you hear me?
no subject
Me?

[She pauses. 'Drag you to Tuonela myself' doesn't have as much weight to it when they're already in hell.]
...I'll dump dye in your hair and turn it pink!

That is... some threat.]
no subject
Wouldn't want that.
no subject
[She does not.
But she's scared of losing the people she's come to care about.]

[Tuuri doesn't need to be told not to kill anyone. Especially not after today.]
... but if you're ever in trouble and need help, know that you need only ask.
no subject
[She is! A mechanic!!! She can't fight and she knows it.]
You better mean that, because I'll hold you to those words! The pact has been sealed, there's no going back now.
no subject
[He doesn't sound all that bothered to resign himself to this fate.]
Though... I don't know, I've seen girls smaller than you fight demons with their bare fists. You're sure you're not holding out on us?

no subject
[And she sounds proud of that fact too.]
Not that I've had much of a chance to do anything here, but if we somehow came across a tank I could make good use of it.
no subject
They're rare where I'm from... But technology here tends to be more advanced, so I wouldn't rule out the possibility.

[YEAH. YEAH...]

[It takes a moment to process those numbers. Doing the mental math... and it's still bad. Thinking about it only makes it sink in more.]
... That's... an event of apocalyptic proportions...
