Has anybody seen Vector since that last time he posted? It sounded like he was going to head out right away. And I think he should have been back by now.

Also, does anybody know anything about what Hell is like here? Or how he would've gotten in?

I haven't been able to figure out how to get to the Summons Department to ask yet. I guess I lost that access along with the promotion.

So anyway, it'd be great if you could help! I'll owe you one! Thanks!

Are you seriously telling me to just leave him down there to rot?

[Like he could live with that? He's not even alive and he couldn't live with that. He has to do something.]

[roeh]

[Yes.

But...] If he's even down there. Look we've been here for what? A couple months at best? There's better people for the job how about trying to find them instead of gallivanting in blind like some kind of martyr.

[sweetdeath]

[Better people for the job? Sure, but do they care enough to do it... or can they even be trusted to tell the truth about what's there?

Tsuzuki winces.]

I'm not going in blind. I'm talking to gods who've been there.

[...at least one of whom is insisting that he shouldn't go, but! That aside!]

I thought you were big on doing whatever you had to to save people, Shepard.

[Wasn't that how they got in that fight about guns?]

[roeh]

[Oops you caught her. Turns out being a martyr is all fine and well if she's the only one.]

I'm also pretty big on sticking around to do what needs to be done!

And why aren't they going? I'm sure you of all people know that one doesn't tend to be a round trip ticket no matter how hard you try. [And doesn't she know it too. If anything, her own death is only serving as fuel to the fire of her ardent emotions.]

[sweetdeath]

One of them did volunteer to go with us.

[...the other one's just yelling and accusing Tsuzuki of not caring about his shinki, so, you know, he's basically a jerk.]

For mortals it's not. For gods, there's a million stories about going down there and coming back, aren't there?

[roeh]

What? Who? [Of all the irresponsible...]

We're not exactly gods like they are as if I should even need to remind you. He's not the only one that's gone missing.

[sweetdeath]

Bishamon.

I might have a long way to go before I'm as powerful as she is, but I've been some kind of god for a long time, Shepard, remember?

[Without Byakko or Suzaku on his side, he doesn't like his odds this time against a Prince of Hell... but he thinks he can handle himself in the underworld if they keep a low profile.]

[roeh]

[Ah. She knows that one. Not commenting on it. But certainly filing it away.]

That's no guarantee this world plays be the same rules as that one. [Augh now they're just talking in circles though which just adds to her irritation.] But fine. Whatever. You better come back or I won't forgive you.

[sweetdeath]

Don't worry. We'll all come back in one piece.

[roeh]

Good. I'm even less forgiving of people who go back on their word.
