[blank look]

Is that what it means when you can't think of anything?

[bondsofsuffering]

That's kind of the "nothing" part in all or nothing, isn't it?

[1797]

Maybe I just don't do well under pressure.

[bondsofsuffering]

Or there's stuff you don't want to bring up publicly...

[1797]

...Not following how that relates?

[bondsofsuffering]

The things you personally value and can't stand to live without... That can be deeply personal. The kind of thing a more guarded person might not want to admit to, much less in a Performance where it could become obvious if you were to lose it for a day or more.

[1797]

I mean I'm not gonna give the thing my free will.

[bondsofsuffering]

Yes, please don't.

[1797]

I don't want to give it any of the things I just listed. I just don't know what it wants instead.

[bondsofsuffering]

What about a skill instead? Like... being able to use knives.

[1797]

[considers]

Maybe?





...Do you think it'd take stuff from visions?

[bondsofsuffering]

What do you mean by "stuff from visions?"

[1797]

Powers, things from them you maybe-kinda-sorta have here. That kind of stuff.

[bondsofsuffering]

You could always give it a shot.

[1797]

[sighs and inputs "persona"





which it accepts]

...Seriously?

[bondsofsuffering]

...

What does that mean...?

[1797]

They're like...summons, I guess? You saw Arsène in that one vision.

[bondsofsuffering]

...

Summons in your world are referred to as Personas?

[1797]

I guess? I nearly just put Arsène but I wasn't sure if he'd count on his own...

[bondsofsuffering]

Do you have one for every persona you use throughout your life or something?

[1797]

Wait. One of what?

[bondsofsuffering]

Persona...? Like, your work persona is probably different from the way you behave around friends, right?

[1797]

Oh.

[1797]

Ohhhhhhhhh.

[1797]
