[Being super invisible is not exactly comforting her fears, but she takes the advice in stride.

Might as well. People like Kido and Shen are the only things keeping her sane right now.]

[blindfoldcode]

[Kido will grab her hand and take her there.]

[losingherhead]

[She can't even be bothered to hide that she's being dragged somewhere, but she'll try. She doesn't want to get Kido in trouble if she's real.]

[blindfoldcode]

[Eh. Real enough.

When they're at the beach she stuffs her hands in her pockets.]

I don't think anything we remember about living here is real. Not before, like, maybe August?

[losingherhead]

Great.

Awesome.

[Her tone does not suggest this is great or awesome.]

[blindfoldcode]

I mean you're not going crazy.

My family doesn't even exist. But Momo does. I remember things about her from like... I don't know. A different life?

[losingherhead]

You told me about those once.

I pretended I didn't believe you.

I was scared.

[blindfoldcode]

Yeah, well... [She scuffs at a rock.] It's pretty damn terrifying.

[losingherhead]

For so long I was... so convinced I got her hurt. Or she got me hurt or we got each other hurt. I was mad at her. And I felt guilty? I mean, I thought she was in a coma. That's where all my money went.

But nah. Just wasted thousands of bucks on a big fraud.

[blindfoldcode]

Probably back to Blanche, actually.

... My best friend is a robot. Did I ever tell you that? And I thought I was an only child. It might've been better because I had two sisters and they both died.

But you're not losing it. Something awful's going on.

[losingherhead]

[She drags a hand down her face. It almost weird not doing it without the helmet.]

Something's real rotten in Vista City.

[blindfoldcode]

Celty we live at corporations that take children to a basement and torture them.

It's been rotten.

[losingherhead]

Well.

Yeah, I don't really have an argument for that. 'S pretty fucked up.

[blindfoldcode]

Really fucked up. But there's no way out. Genos and I talked about it before.

[losingherhead]

Guess we'll just keep doing what we've been doing.

Survive together.

[blindfoldcode]

We don't have much other choice...

[losingherhead]

...Thanks for keeping me sane.

[blindfoldcode]

I haven't kept anyone anything. You've been sane. It's the labels that aren't.

[losingherhead]

They've certainly been eager to make us as nutty as them then.

[blindfoldcode]

You have literally no idea how accurate that is.

[losingherhead]

I don't even know if I want to.
