A tear drops on the screen in her hands, "I-it's all so meaningless... Why shouldn't we just let Overseer or the Eternals destroy the world? If they don't we'll do it ourselves anyway..." the pc slides from her hands and she hugs her knees to her chest, "I-I'm sorry, I shouldn't... I-I've always told others everything would be alright, but ... but it's hard to keep hoping right now..."
“Nothing to apologize for Karen,” Jun Min replies verbally, she puts her arms around Karen to comfort her, “these are the times, when everything seems darkest when our true characters are tested. We could give up right now, wash our hands of this and just let the world slide into oblivion… but maybe we shouldn’t care too much about saving the world and focus on what really matters living. I never set out to save the world Karen, I only set out to make things a little better for those close to me, one person at a time.”
“Saving the world is what super heroes do, making things better because it is the right thing to do is what real heroes do. It may seem meaningless but there a lot of people who lived today because you took it upon yourself to care and help,” Jun Min adds.
Mark
“I am not convinced, but at least I can hear your voice,” Star responds, “Kal is doing better, it is almost impossible to keep him in the bed to rest. I try to understand what I should feel about this incident and all I can come up with are the logistics of the death toll. The number seems staggering, early estimates are in the millions… how can we stop someone that has no qualms killing so many people? Are you scared?”
Clover
Robbie watches Anika walk over to Sami and then turns back to Clover, “I just showed up earlier today but I am not sure from where. They think I am an Eternal, but I am not quite sure what that means or why that should be important. Can you tell me?”
His twin laughs, “You are so dumb, of course she does not know.”
“hey at least I am trying to find answers,” Robbie responds.
“Yeah, in the wrong places,” his twin chortles and then snaps his fingers and disappears.
“Hey how did he do that?” Robbie asks. Robbie starts snapping his fingers but nothing happens.
Anika
Sami barely registers a nod, “They told me I should hang out here away from the baselines, just in case people might get violent,” his eyes slowly shift looking like that of a predator and the air about him gives off the feeling of a predator, but worse. His eyes quickly go back, “I feel different now.”
He puts his hand slowly to her chin, “You look beautiful.”
Cassie
One book seems to be written in Russian, the second in Chinese, and the third looks to be English; the Bible. The caveman-like humanoid responds, “Your hair looks fine you are a beautiful young woman, just like your sister. More a classic, earthy beauty. In more classical times men would spend their nights writing poetry to celebrate your charms.”
“My name is Ignatius do you require sustenance? I have tea and I can prepare you a meal. It will be hours before it will be safe for us to move again,” the gentle giant replies.
