Location: The Library - Floor of Art
Servant Roland
Sir, you gotta wake up~ You’re gonna get sick if you sleep on the floor~
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
(Netzach once again casts a glimpse at Roland while still lying on the floor, before turning back again.)
Servant Roland
This smell… And this thing rolling around on the floor… Don’t tell me…
Servant Roland
…A beer can. Where the heck did you get this?
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
This is the Library, Roland. Constructed from the light of possibilities. Anything’s possible as long as you’ve got the book.
Servant Roland
Uh… Are you sure you’re sorting the books well? You seemed okay at receiving guests, at least.
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
(He nods to the pile of books next to him.)
Servant Roland
Really, you sorted them all? Lemme see, that’s… The books are almost randomly scattered across the floor. I don’t think that counts as sorting…
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
……
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
Here, have a drink.
Servant Roland
Hehey, you’ve got manners at least. Well, lemme take a sip if you insist.
Servant Roland
Kyah~ Never guessed I’d get the chance to drink beer in this place.
Servant Roland
Boy, how I missed this sparkling softness.
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
Good stuff, ey?
Servant Roland
It sure is, brother.
Servant Roland
So, how’s work been going?
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
It’s been going, somehow.
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
Not that I’m satisfied with it, though.
Servant Roland
What’s your biggest complaint at the moment, then?
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
That I have to take someone else’s life with my hands.
Servant Roland
But it’s either you or them, ain’t it?
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
That’s why I have to fight. And that’s what I don’t like about it.
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
I’ll probably hafta kill even more people as time goes by.
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
Doesn’t matter if it’s a saint or the scum of the earth. Everyone wants to live all the same.
Servant Roland
I’m picking up what you’re puttin’ down.
Servant Roland
But it’s no different out there, really. People all hurt and kill others because they don’t wanna be hurt themselves.
Servant Roland
Take others’ lives so you can keep yours. Bit too obvious, maybe?
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
I guess that’s how things were in the outside world.
Servant Roland
Where are you from, by the way? The Nest? The Backstreets?
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
Dunno, I’m feeling tipsy. All I remember for sure is that I worked at Lobotomy Corp.
Servant Roland
Must’ve been in a pretty sweet spot, working in a megacorp like that.
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
You really think so?
Servant Roland
Duh, of course. People are bound to envy anyone who gets to join a Wing. They give a lot of cash, welfare’s nice, and you gain social status too.
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
Yeah. That’s what they always say.
Patron Librarian - Art Netzach
Let’s just forget about all that for now and drink some more.
Servant Roland
Alright! Gotta drink while I can.
Library Director Angela
…You’ve got to be kidding.
