[TSUCHIGUMO]

[when you open your eyes, you find yourself in a pleasant greenhouse. the sweet scent of flowers surrounds you, and the sun shining through the glass ceiling invigorates you from within. there are stone benches on which you can sit, and if you're hungry, there's a garden table with some refreshing tea and scones available to you]

[the voice– the good voice– echoes in your head again]

YOUR DESIRES. . . CREATED THIS REALM. IT IS YOURS. . . IT IS NOT TYPHON'S! I CAN USE THOSE DESIRES TO GIVE YOU A SAFE PLACE. . . FROM WHICH TO FIGHT.

BUT I CANNOT DEFEAT HIM. . . ONLY YOU CAN. ONLY YOU– WITH YOUR OWN DESIRES!! YOU CAN. . . RESHAPE THIS WORLD. . . HOWEVER YOU'D LIKE!

It's like you've never had a fistfight with your brother in the rain where you both expel all your deep-seated demons until there's nothing left and you pick each other up with newfound understanding of each other.

I definitely have never done such a thing, no.

I've done something similar in a courtroom, though.

Don't tell me - you're going to put Typhon on trial?

I considered doing so in the past, but I wonder if I'll be given the opportunity at this point? This all feels... quite final.

If it's final, then you might as well try anyway. Reshape reality. Why the hell not.

What counters guilt? It could be penance.

If this place-- this feeling, whatever - changes to something like that, he'll want to face justice for the pain he's caused.

[Like me, Kaine doesn't say.]

... I do think that he needs to serve out a sentence for what he's done to us, regardless of what happens after that. But he should also receive a fair trial. We don't have to stoop to his level.

But who'd even want t'be defending him?

...........

Well, I could take on the case. To give him a fair representation. The real question is who here has the experience to be the prosecution, I think.

[ Not that it would be a difficult case for them. Typhon's clearly guilty. ]
