saint seiya (d2) aries mu

(no subject)

[Mu is sitting on the ground of the Plane, his back to the Colluseium, cross-legged, but resting his elbows on his knees, and his head in his inter-laced fingers. In front of him is the Aries Cloth in presentational form. Both Mu himself and the cloth are glowing slightly, resonating with one another if your character is so inclined as to sense something like that. Mu's eyes are closed in concentration, but his mouth seems to be humouring the thought of a smile, albeit a small one.

Eventually his eyes open and he looks at the cloth fondly, reaching a hand out to absently trace one of the patterns on it's surface.]

But you, my friend, are real enough to me.

Oh, you mean a dream-like reality. Isn't that what most people strive for?

Yes, but..

[Mu pauses, then shakes his head] Don't worry on it for now.

The other day, when the man was here, speaking about The Machine - I saw you talking to him. Did he say anything of interest?

Oh, um, he said a few things. He works in some scientific capacity it sounded like, babysitting logic, and lives in the same world as the Twins. [hesitates] And he said that black glittery liquid, he said if I could I should obtain it in case anything bad happens.

Did he elaborate on 'anything bad?'

He said people might get hurt for a long time, because the Machine doesn't always like the people that go in, but if I could get that bl - liquid, it might be enough protection, but it should only be used right before it's needed.

[Mu ponders this carefully. There could be serious implications to that.]

I don't suppose he mentioned anything that could trigger something like that happening?

Not really. He only seemed to think it was a good idea to make that black hole bigger. That doesn't really make any sense though, so he must be mistaken.

Why are you so curious?

Perhaps. Perhaps not.

Curiosity leads to answers.

Perhaps not?

HE told me that the hole serves to gather energy for the Machine, and that we should seek to be in control when it reaches full power. If that were the case, then making the hole bigger would be a good idea.

Given where it draws the power from, however...

Do you think it's a good idea?

[He's hesitant for a very long time. There are some ugly moral implications that go with this]

Yes.

[simply and matter-of-fact] Why?

Because I wish to be free of this place.

People could get hurt if you do something so reckless. Is it really worth that much of a risk?

Human life is never worth such a risk. There must be other ways to expand that hole.

Do you have any ideas?
