[kicks hyde's head.] I learned plenty, you dummy...

... I actually really don't know what he's talking about. [thinks...] I mean, you already know about the murders. That's the only, um, stupid shit I can think of?

[dangernoises]

OW! [ LISTEN HES stupid, his own hype man. Gets kicked and grips where he got hit but hes still talking. ] Yeahhh, [ Him rolling away like a worm. ] so they came out with it. The murders, and then what happened? They got at each other throats, its the funniest thing. Are you gunna save them Steph? All of them?

[adsum]

[ Sighs... wishes he were there. But at least he gets more company in the coming days, and he can stop holding that Arisu boy hostage. ]

"Even monsters deserve to be saved"... Do you forgive them? Your friends. Would you forgive if they were not your friends? Would you forgive if they murdered two people, or three, or fifty? Would they deserve forgiveness if they murdered somebody you really cared about? Where do you draw the line? Why save somebody you can't forgive?

[closewithnewintown]

... [she closes her eyes.]

I'll forgive them. I know I'll forgive them. Eventually. I can't do it right now, and maybe things will never be just like they were before, but... I will. I know I will.

[she opens them again, and looks directly at the counselor.]

But, I wouldn't need to forgive them to want them to be saved. Everyone deserves to be saved, no matter how you feel about them as a person. Heroes don't judge... And the worst person in the world wouldn't deserve this place. We're all getting out of here.

[dangernoises]

... And? What if thats someone you care for? Killed for sport? Right in front of you - youre really gunna just forgive them?

Hey - hey!

What if we took your body, and we killed you in front of everyone. Cut out out your tongue so you don't scream. Let your friends watch as they all remorse because they couldn't fuckin' save you. Watch me cut you apart limb by limb!!

Am I still someone worth saving? [ He turns on his side looking at her. ] You really think I want to be saved?

[adsum]

[ She'd be dead so she wouldn't know of or care about the aftermath but. ]

They're valid questions. [ Hyde would make a good counselor ] What do you even mean by "save"?

[ It starts to have no meaning when she repeats it ad nauseum like that, like Komaeda's hope, or Rokkun's soccer ]

[closewithnewintown]

[maybe if she just steps on hyde's face he will stop talking. she's gonna try that.]

There's maybe three valid questions. [...] When you save the day, everything goes back to the way it was before everything went wrong. Or as close as you can get it. Maybe you don't get there in time to catch the person falling out of the tree, but you can clean them up and put a band-aid on them.

[dangernoises]

[ He makes muffled noises, 'Thats not how people work!' ]

[adsum]

[ It really is... a childish, idealistic view of things. It makes the counselor smile, just a little, and he has to fold his hands in front of his mouth to hide it, because Stephanie doesn't like it when he smiles. ]

But the world will always be a little wrong. You can't save the world all the way back to the beginning of time.

[ How it is here, in Yogen High, it's the way things are. The default. There's nothing to be saved from. ]

[closewithnewintown]

Of course it will. We wouldn't need heroes anymore if life was perfect. Heroes are just people trying to make life the very best it can be.

[she says, while leaning slightly more weight onto her foot.]

[dangernoises]

[ BITES THE SHOE. Stephanie will realize that if she tries to pull her foot out, Hyde will pull back and begin to eat her shoe. ]

[adsum]

[ RIP Stephanie's shoe. ]

And you're trying your best to be a hero, aren't you? And it's tough, because there's so much that's wrong here. Where do you even start?

[closewithnewintown]

You just take it one step at a time.

[aS SHE GRINDS HER SHOE INTO HIS FACE]

[dangernoises]

[ Chewing the shoe. ]

[adsum]

In what direction? Do you pick one and stick with it, or do you run around in circles trying to help everything?

[closewithnewintown]

[whisper] You are the worst dog I've ever had, and that's including the one that tried to kill me!

[just fucking. kicks out of her shoe. it's fine she has a spare he can have that one.]

I like running.

[dangernoises]

[ Another shoe eaten. He is listening, conversation is interesting. He is learning about the counselor as they go, they kinda just repeat back what Stephanie says - Hyde wonders if hes bored? ]

Oi. [ Chew chew chew. ] Dont think counselor-san is having much fun with the convo master.

[adsum]

It's alright, Hyde. I'm learning.

[ Listening. ]

I think it's interesting, the way people's minds work. It's why this job chose me.

[closewithnewintown]

And I'm sure you trying to make yourself look tough and gross for an hour would be just bunches of fun--

[wait no be spiteful later.] ... "Chose?" Jobs don't choose people.
