Mécanisme 006 [Text]

Do people who are dead in their world ever come here? I don't mean as ghosts. I mean do they come here and are no longer dead? Are people again? Or maybe they come here before they die?

The dead do come here and are revived. Why do you ask?

I just wanted to know. I wanted to know what kind of people you might find here.

[People you might wait for]

they do.

[Speaking as one who has personal experience with this sort of thing.]

I've heard they do.

Who are you waiting for?

How do you know?

That's not important.

Who told you that they do? How did they know?

How will I know who to look for?

I've heard it around. Different people talking about those who've come back.

Yes, they do come here and they are no longer dead.

[It's a moment before the boy gets his answer.]

i died before i came here.

People it hurts to lose all over again.

I have not seen this happen before, but I do hear it is possible... But I do not know if it is wise to hope for it.

Well... Mr. Tinker, I should think it does. If people much further in the past come here than shouldn't they be ah... deceased? I'm from a good deal of people's pasts... I suppose I must be dead in their time... And, I'm here.

They do, and most often that they are in fact dead. Even the exact moment.

[If there's one thing she can confirm, it's this.]

It's true. Doesn't matter how we died back home, sometimes our wounds are gone when we get here.

[Her voice is soft, sad, no trace of her usual cheerfulness. Hugo can't see, but her arms are curled around her stomach, where a certain fatal wound had been.]
