So, I look like...?

[insinerate]

Besides a fool?

Your natural appearance bears striking resemblance to my mother.

[rathercommon]

And how do you feel about that?

[insinerate]

Irate.

[...]

You were nothing but a nuisance before I had reason to want to see your face.

[rathercommon]

Excuse you. I have always been much more than what you gave me credit for. Anyway. Is there any way I can use this to help you?

[insinerate]

I give credit where it is due, Ms Jones. Blame yourself for a lack of demonstrating more noteworthy and commendable talents in my presence.





As for your question...I'm afraid I do not have an answer. I honestly do not know if this can be used to help me. I suspect it will do more harm than good, for you're not actually her. You're just another ghost.

[rathercommon]

Another ghost? What, have you got many of those?

[insinerate]

Isn't one too many?

[rathercommon]

Can't say. Haven't got any myself.

[insinerate]

Then trust me when I say it is.

[hisheartsdesire]

...All right, so. How do you, or Lunatic, choose who must be punished for their sins first? Is there any sort of... process, any way of distinguishing who is or isn't a higher priority threat?

[insinerate]

First and foremost, know that I do not exist separately from Lunatic. If you address one of us, you address us both, Tobias.

Regarding priority, however, things are a little more complicated. High priority targets are typically those most likely to commit repeat offenses, but they are not always the most accessible, whether due to security, abilities, or a lack of incriminating evidence. I take into account all of these things...

Why is it you wish to know? You aren't worried still that I might target you, are you?

[hisheartsdesire]

I just wanted to be sure I covered all the bases in addressing you. Still, thank you. Because now I know.

Anyway, to answer your question, it's not so much that I'm worried. Though I'd be lying if that weren't a small part of it. More than that, it's because I know Dorian and have at least met Sasaki. I don't know how many you've punished or in what order, so I was mostly curious as to how you go about it.

Given what I had done upon arriving in this world, would I have been a high priority target at that time? Or even, say, if I had arrived earlier for that matter?

[insinerate]

That is a difficult question to answer.

You may have been, yes, if I'd not promised Dorian that I wouldn't harm you. And if I hadn't taken the time to get to know you myself.

[A frown.]

I do genuinely enjoy your presence. And I believe you are...good. Albeit terribly, terribly unfortunate in so many ways.
