Hey.  I’m not into public introductions, it feels like AA or something.  Name’s Rudolf Ushiromiya, just got a few questions here for the rest of you.

Anyone know how exactly they decide where you go?  It’s like a horoscope, right?  Personalities and all that.  So what’s the formula, if you want specifics, it’d be Baldr.  If you don’t like how they judged you, who do you talk to about getting a switch?  I don’t like the idea of somebody just assuming who I am.

Oh yeah, and what kind of jobs are up for grabs, or businesses that might be needed.  This suite doesn’t really suit my tastes.  …And I guess I’m gonna have to buy cigarettes.

Yes... and the victims o-often didn't listen to the gods, and they g-got punished for it. The d-deaths occured s-seemingly because the gods wanted to... prove a point.

Those who d-died came back to life, however...

[gunsgoldgirls]

[Yeah that sure does sound like Rokkenjima...]

I guess coming back's okay...

[burntviolet]

Yes, but the t-trauma of it all still remains. I don't like th-their methods at all.

[gunsgoldgirls]

For sure, it doesn't matter if you can come right back to life, dying...isn't fun.

[give him a moment to uwoo about having just died...]

[burntviolet]

[They way he worded it weird her out a bit...]

It really isn't... a-although I never experienced it.

[gunsgoldgirls]

I think I have now. Seems to be the case, anyway. I kind of thought that's what this was at first. I hope if Battler's here that means he's safe, but I guess I'm proof it doesn't necessarily. But it's not like people just come back to life back home, this is still a bit better.

[burntviolet]

[Ok, now she has to ask it.]

... Did you die i-in your world, sir?

[gunsgoldgirls]

Yeah, I think so. Just under ten others from our family were killed before me, and then my wife and I were attacked, pretty sure I heard her scream, so...yeah, yeah I definitely died.

[It was all pretty sudden, after all]

[burntviolet]

...

I'm sorry, sir. That's... t-terrible.

[gunsgoldgirls]

[He shrugs] It is what it is, we probably deserved it.

[burntviolet]

... May I ask why?

[Stupid curiosity ghhh]

[gunsgoldgirls]

All us adults were fighting over money and we've always been a pretty dysfunctional family. I don't think any of us have been too honest in business, either. And then, well, we've all got our own 'personal sins'.

[burntviolet]

I see...

I... still don't think anyone d-deserves death.

[gunsgoldgirls]

Eh, maybe not exactly 'deserves', but, you know what I mean. It's better us than a whole lot of other people.

[burntviolet]

... Who's responsible for those d-deaths?

[gunsgoldgirls]

That's a good question, I'd like to know that myself. We thought it must've been one of the family, though some people were saying it was a witch, and my wife and I were attcked by...uh, well, some kind of demon girls. They could fly and shit.

[burntviolet]

[wow weird]

...Um. I'm sorry f-for asking all these questions.

[gunsgoldgirls]

It's fine, I don't mind. ...You don't know if Battler's talked about it at all, do you?

[burntviolet]

As far as I k-know... no, he hasn't.

[gunsgoldgirls]

Huh, I see. Thanks.

Anyway, how about you? I guess you'd be in school? That's a littler easier to take.

[burntviolet]

... Y-yes, I was a-attending last year in Yamaku High School b-before I was sent here.

[gunsgoldgirls]

Oh, even Battler's age, no wonder he was trying to chat you up.

[burntviolet]

I... g-guess that'd be the reason. [She sighs softly.]

[gunsgoldgirls]

More like the icing on the cake.

[burntviolet]

Ah...really?
