[ Pickles now has a device hanging off the strap around his neck, and that's about all that's different... except the ink thing, but he isn't aware of that just yet. He's just toddling here and there around the campsite until he sees... wings? Hair? Curious, he toddles over to Robin, holding up a paw in greeting. ]
Hm? [ there is a quick moment of surprise, but she accepts it easily enough. it helps to be from a scifi kind of game. ] That's convenient. Are you speaking in third person, or is that how the translator interprets you?
But in the end, I would agree. I would have my eyes open to the truth.
[ Pickles looks up at Robin. He seems exhausted and very dead-like. His fur has lost its shine with more white patches than before and his indigo eyes look dead. He turns his head to Robin when called for and stays quiet. There's a doll under his paw. ]
... Woof.
[ The puppy says it's good to see you again, alive. ]
[ Pickles isn't wounded anywhere apart from being shocked by electricity magic once, but it seems that he has trouble walking sometimes regardless of that. Upon closer look, Pickles looks more like a disheveled, tired zombie dog. ]
[ comes crawling back.... but you can ignore me and drop this thread ]
It does beg the question, if what you experience feels real enough, does it make it reality? [ if you can't distinguish a dream from reality, can it still be considered a dream? ]
What you experienced was a real experience, but I know I was here the entire time.

[ she lets him sniff. she smells clean.... like soap. ]
As terrible as it is, I don't know how much bliss there is in ignorance.

[ she looks a little rueful for a moment before she offers a small smile. ]
It's something that was my brother's. I found it before arriving here. I didn't think it'd come to me.
[ or come with her? she doesn't know what or how those items get chosen to show up at the swamp. ]

Thank you, Mr. Pickles. You are kind. It is precious to me because it connects me to my brother.

Woo...
[ The puppy says you were hung from a tree. ]
HAKIIIIII I WON'T FORGIVE YOU FOR THIS
it is more alarming to her that this is what he experienced, more than that he saw her dead. ]
That sounds horrible to witness. I'm sorry you had to see that, and I'm sorry you had to see me like that. Was there anyone else....?
VENGEANCE FOR SPRACE
Woo.
[ The puppy says he remembers Rondo being there too, and someone who looked like Todomatsu. Perhaps a twin. ]
I WAS ALIVE PAST W1
Whatever you experienced, it's cruel that they pulled illusions of people you all knew in that way.
[ if they were all hung from trees or some other horrible way. ]
revenge served with interest
Woof... woof.
[ The puppy wonders if everything was an illusion, because it didn't seem like it. ]
