People resort to evil for all manner of reasons. [k] @ To eat... To sleep... To escape pain... To earn praise...[sr]To gain respect... To avoid having to think... [k] @ To connect with others...

[k] [charaFace A 4] @Amakusa Shirou ...Of course I can never forgive them for what they did.[sr]And I have no desire to do so. [k] @Amakusa Shirou But would we have been any more merciful had the tables had been turned? I doubt it. [k] [charaFace A 0] @Amakusa Shirou Demanding that others do things we can't is one of mankind's worst habits. [k] ?1:Hey, so... Maybe we could talk about something else now? ?2:I gotta say, this isn't really what I had in mind for tea talk. ?! [charaFace A 1] @Amakusa Shirou Hahaha, I can't blame you at all for feeling that way.[sr]But I'm not about to stop now.

[k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Amakusa Shirou There have been lots of heroes and such who have tried to resolve the problem of evil once and for all... [k] [charaFace A 4] @Amakusa Shirou ...but unfortunately, none of them ever succeeded. [k] @Amakusa Shirou Some of them went about it the wrong way...[sr]Some of them got bogged down in the details... [k] @Amakusa Shirou And some of them were mistaken about what the end result of their endeavor would be. [k] @Amakusa Shirou Strangely enough, it turns out that in order to eradicate evil... [k] [charaFace A 0] @Amakusa Shirou ...one must resort to the decidedly evil measure of sacrificing the few for the sake of the many. [k] [charaFace A 1] @Amakusa Shirou And of course, in doing so, such an endeavor ceases to be good. [k] @Amakusa Shirou That is the part that tripped up everyone who attempted this, be they hero, genius, or otherwise. [k] [charaFace A 0] @Amakusa Shirou Which is exactly why you shouldn't lose heart.[sr]After all, this is the only option you have. [k] ?1:Huh? ?! @Amakusa Shirou I'm talking about the Lostbelts. You seem to be taking their loss pretty hard, after all. [k] @Amakusa Shirou You may give us orders as our Master, but at the same time you also have your own orders to follow. [k] ?1:I appreciate the thought, but I can't let myself get used to this. ?! @Amakusa Shirou Yes, that's true. [k] @Amakusa Shirou Getting used to it would erase one of your key advantages. [k] [charaFace A 4] @Amakusa Shirou Most Servants are merciless, myself included. [k] @Amakusa Shirou After all, whether it's for a greater cause, our country, our loved ones, or ourselves, we wield our blades. [k] [charaFace A 0] @Amakusa Shirou And we would never have become heroes had we not grown accustomed to fighting. [k] @Amakusa Shirou But you're an ordinary person. And as long as you remain so, you'll never get used to that. [k] @Amakusa Shirou One slight misstep on the path to your destination, and you could even end up with lifelong trauma. [k] [charaFace A 1] @Amakusa Shirou However, that willingness to hold your ground even as you get hurt, despite not being a hero... [k] @Amakusa Shirou ...is also why you shine so bright. [k] ?1:I...think I get it? [charaFace A 0] @Amakusa Shirou It's fine if you don't understand everything. [k] @Amakusa Shirou As long as you continue to do what you can, that's all that matters. [k] ?2:I just try to help however I can. [charaFace A 0] @Amakusa Shirou Indeed. That's all you need to do. [k] @Amakusa Shirou Simply doing what they can is all any human can hope to do. [k] @Amakusa Shirou Expecting anything more requires us to stand on the shoulders of those who came before us. [k] ?! [charaFace A 1] @Amakusa Shirou Oh my, look at the time. I didn't mean to go on this long. All right, I think I'd better bid you good night now. [k] @Amakusa Shirou Sweet dreams.

[k] [charaFace A 0] @Amakusa Shirou Unfortunately, you've every right to be. [k] ?! @Amakusa Shirou This is as much your nightmare as it is mine. [k] @Amakusa Shirou Do you remember seeing this scenery before? [k] ?1:Yeah, I do. This place is[line 2] ?! @Amakusa Shirou Indeed. Reality Marble: The Hell of Shimabara... [k] @Amakusa Shirou The living hell you once experienced in the Shimousa Province Pseudo-Singularity. [k] @Amakusa Shirou I too experienced something very similar to it back when I was alive. [k] ?1:But, why are we seeing this again now? ?! [charaFace A 1] @Amakusa Shirou That would be my doing. Do you remember what we talked about before bedtime? [k] @Amakusa Shirou About Lostbelts, and evil, and all that jazz? [k] @Amakusa Shirou It was through that talk that these memories came back to life and merged with the curses you've been accumulating. [k] @Amakusa Shirou Normally, driving such curses away falls to another Servant, but tonight, I asked him to let me handle it. [k] [charaFace A 4] @Amakusa Shirou ...So yes, this was all intentional.[sr]I'm sorry I dragged you into it, but... [k] ?1:Oh well, I guess it's okay. ?! [charaFace A 1] @Amakusa Shirou Oh? You really don't mind? Even though, by all accounts, this is a fairly serious situation? [k] ?1:You had a reason for doing this, right? ?2:I know you didn't do this for no reason. ?! [charaFace A 3] @Amakusa Shirou ...[sr]... [k] @Amakusa Shirou Well, now I'm kind of embarrassed. [k] @Amakusa Shirou All right, if you trust me that much, I'll go ahead and tell you everything.
