-- [NP] began pestering [QW]--
NP: Uhm.
NP: No I don't hate you.
NP: And I don't really have any ill feelings.
NP: I mean love doesn't really just happen...
NP: ...
NP: After one date, I believe.
NP: And while I am not really sure how I feel.
NP: I don't really feel angry.
NP: ...
NP: Well...
NP: If you want to work alongside Ross I have no say in the matter.
NP: I won't tell Finn.
NP: I don't know what the right thing to say here is.
NP: I'm not the most proficient with...
NP: Talking. |

NP: Cali.
NP: Things are complicated.
NP: It's part of growing up.
NP: And you know... We're the last twelve kids from our universe.
NP: I...
NP: There is a lot of stuff going on with me too.
NP: And there are a lot of things that I have to do.
NP: Not good things.
NP: But the Gods tell me.
NP: And I follow.
NP: So...
NP: Maybe it is better?
NP: If you were to get to know others better too.
NP: Because I don't want to disappoint you.

QW: Ocia
QW: We all have to do terrible things
QW: I have to let Finn kill Alex
QW: I'm still struggling with that one
QW: You and I share that
QW: We know exactly what we have to do
QW: Even if we don't like it
QW: It's not the kind of thing I want to bear alone
QW: And I don't want you to bear it alone either
QW: That much I know
QW: In all my confusion that feels like the most solid thought I can grasp.

NP: I don't have to do what I see.
NP: I have seen the situations...
NP: But never my actions.
NP: What happens after Finn kills Alex?
NP: Alex rises, more powerful than ever...
NP: Don't you think he would be even more pissed off?
NP: What if Finn gets hurt?
NP: Can you watch that?
NP: Because Finn's quest bed isn't anywhere near Alex's.
NP: He might not make it.
NP: My visions don't affect time like yours do.
NP: They aren't always solid.
NP: But if I feel they suit my whims then I manipulate people to follow them.
NP: Like you for example.
NP: Do you think Finn would stand you ascending if he knew you had to die?
NP: He would avenge you in his own way.
NP: I'm nothing like them.
NP: If anything I'm the bad guy.
NP: Because I kill people for myself, not for time.

QW: I don't know what Finn's fate will be.
QW: My vision showed me him as he cut down Alex.
QW: I could let Alex die there, honestly.
QW: I wouldn't be able to do that.
QW: So my options are either helping him ascend or reviving him with a kiss.
QW: Either way he'll be mad.
QW: And I don't know what's supposed to happen.
QW: That's the worst part.
QW: But Ocia
QW: I couldn't kill anybody for time
QW: Even if I had to
QW: I can't even kill the hulks myself
QW: The vines do it for me
QW: And that's why I need someone like you
QW: Which is why I trust you
QW: And why I made Finn promise not to intervene
QW: During whatever event you have predicted.

NP: That is the problem!
NP: Don't trust me.
NP: You saw what I work for.
NP: Writhing monstrosities that work to benefit themselves...
NP: And the reason I told you that we had to stop him.
NP: Is because...
NP: Damnit.
NP: Cali, have you seen anything that scared you?
NP: In the future.

QW: And the fact is
QW: I am afraid of seeing something
QW: Imagine knowing when and where I'm going to die
QW: Or seeing everyone I care about die around me
QW: Doomed offshoot or not.
QW: I fear my actions and choices hurting those around me.
QW: I don't fear too much for myself.
QW: Though
QW: That's honestly one of the reasons I like being around you
QW: Though even if it weren't true
QW: I would still want to see you
QW: But when I'm around you
QW: I can't see my own future
QW: Or yours
QW: But as long as you're around my visions are limited
QW: So I don't need to be afraid that I'll see something
QW: Horrifying

NP: What if it is because of me that you cannot see something...
NP: Dangerous to yourself or others?
NP: And someone gets hurt?
NP: I won't claim to be a hero.
NP: That's Finn. Or Alex...
NP: And I will be the cause of a lot of pain.
NP: When it comes down to it.
NP: I have to be the dark mage.
NP: And I don't want you to be affected badly by that.

QW: Then I have the exact same handicap as everyone else
QW: I got by at that level before
QW: I can continue like it.
QW: You give me normality.
QW: And frankly
QW: I like that you're able to do what you need to do
QW: I envy that in you
QW: I just run away
QW: I always run away
QW: Finn and I aren't that different
QW: But you know what you need to do
QW: What needs to get done
QW: And that's enough for me to feel safe
QW: Horrorterrors or not.
QW: I have diabolic vines keeping me safe.
QW: I can live with your horroterrors telling you what to do.

NP: But you can't live with them being there.
NP: As ridiculously over-dramatic as this sounds...
NP: There will be a point where you all will hate me.
NP: I will ruin everything.
NP: I don't want to be the guy...
NP: Who shows you companionship.
NP: Then becomes your enemy.
NP: Plainly stated, I am afraid that at one point...
NP: You may all try to kill me.
NP: Or rather, you will all want to.
NP: If that makes sense?

QW: And I don't plan on ever doing so
QW: Nor do I wish death
QW: Death is a horrible fate
QW: Even if the dead are going to rise
QW: Like as gods or something

QW: But Ocia
QW: I'm the Seer of Time
QW: I've seen too much of the future
QW: Enough that I know I don't want to live in the future
QW: Right now I want to live in the present
QW: And prepare for the future
QW: But I'm not going to worry about the 'eventually's until they come.

NP: Okay then.
NP: I don't mean to be the evil one.
NP: But I'm going to tell you this.
NP: In order for us to get closer.
NP: And get to know each other better...
NP: I need your permission.
NP: First- I need your permission to kill you.
NP: Second- I need your permission...
NP: That I can die in peace if I am killed as a repercussion.
NP: Finn and Ross, hell, even Venn...
NP: They will be able to protect you better than I can.
NP: Because I can't protect you.
NP: I can't explain everything.
NP: Because doing so might not make my plans work.
NP: But there it is.
NP: On the metaphorical table.
NP: Me being the bad guy.

QW:
QW:
QW: I
QW: I trust you.
QW: I know exactly what it's like
QW: To know something and know that it seems against everyone's interests
QW: Like Finn killing Alex
QW: It haunts me
QW: I know what that's like
QW: It may not be the same
QW: But I still trust you
QW: So
QW: I guess
QW: Don't make it painful?

QW: I'll make sure no one does anything to you

QW: I'll make them listen to me

QW: A bad guy wouldn't be comforting to me even after asking if he can kill me.
