[ Adam takes a moment to consider it even though he already knows the answer. ]

Maybe all of the above? I worked hard to stay alive to this point, it'd make it all worthless if I died here. I have so much left to do at home. There's people waiting for me.

... What about you?

[thanatosincarnate]

When Allen inquired the same of me back then, I said...

"I believe in my own capabilities -- and to an extent, some others."

{ Beat. }

Even now this is true. I believe in the abilities of myself and others.

Either way, that should be one thing that can help you and some of the others keep their heads up high. Conviction or belief in something else that can be tangible or appealing enough in some way to make sure you or anyone else would think twice before falling into despair.

Whether it works or not is up to the individual, of course.

[antietam]

You're right. With what we're given, I guess all we can do is keep from playing the game. [ He frowns. ]

Do you think that's why people have been killing? Because they believe so much in the motives as opposed to the people around them?

[thanatosincarnate]

For now.

{ ... }

Sometimes. It is not just the motive they believe, but it's also the belief they can attain freedom by slaughtering one innocent civilian besides their faith in the motive. Then there are the corrupted beasts to factor in now, and of course there's probably another factor.

[antietam]

It's stupid. We've found out everyone. The only problem was... with Frankenstein, but that was because we were dealing with something we hadn't expected.

Now that we know, it—no, it's even harder. Because we can't believe any alibis or anyone who seems genuine. [ A pause. ] What's the other factor?

[thanatosincarnate]

{ He'll shrug. }

That, I wouldn't know.

In the meantime... keep yourself observant. We know now we have a much more formidable enemy to contend with. Yet, I know I won't allow them to do whatever they desire easily.

{ ... }

I need to go. I will see you hopefully soon, Adam.

{ He'll give a salute and go off. }
