Epilogue



Welcome to Cartesio!
You open your eyes and see the ceiling of the lodge. There is no real sensation of having slept, but you're still feeling rested. Sitting up, you can see that the building around you is in ruins. Dust and dirt dominate your environment. Around you, there are familiar people - some of them you've been with up until now, some of them you have been brutally forced to part with weeks ago. They all look alright, a little confusion aside.

From a corner of the room, you can hear the soft whirring of a machine. Upon examination, you can see that it's 3D-printing more gelatinous bodies like you've seen earlier today. Every body that is dispensed from the machine is a safe haven for another mind from the simulation, another mind to join your ranks as real people.

After you've adjusted to the new situation and left the lodge, you find yourself greeted with perfect sunshine. There's a town welcoming you, friendly and peaceful. Though it is more modern than what you are used to, there is no mistaking it.

Cartesio, Nevada, welcomes you.

You're new people, in a new world. Every chance it has to offer is open for you.

You must be Keet-san. It's nice to meet you.

[If he got closer than he should've without being noticed - sorry. He does that. Nagisa is curious about all the people who never made it to Processing.]

[Holy shit what have the dead done that people are creeping on him with nicknames too?!]

It's Keith.

[The correction is as automatic as the step back to put more space between them and there's about a second delay after that where he's raising an eyebrow in vague confusion as to who the heck the pigtailed chick is.

For better or for worse, he remembers before there's another kneejerk response.

...Nagisa?
