_{[When the feed comes on all there is is darkness and the sound of fabric against a microphone. It only lasts a moment however as the darkness suddenly gives way to a view of socks and tights in a sock drawer (one belonging to a certain duck girl), currently being turned into a nest by none other that Kyubey. Amidst the socks he settles himself, reaching out with a paw to knock the NV closer.]}

People come and people go. They live and die and that's it for them. Usually. Well, another version of them will continue to exist in an alternate dimension parallel to the one they originated from, but that's making things overly complicated. The fact is that once someone dies, that specific individual is fated to remain dead.

But that's not the case here.

People die and then return to this place with their memories intact or else they arrive here from having been dead before. I've always found this utterly fascinating, now more so than before.

_{[A little ear twitches as he nestles more into the sock drawer.]}

So tell me! I'm curious. What is it like to die? To truly die. What does it feel like to meet death and remember it? What does it make you feel?

Would you wish to live forever if you could?

To empathize?

That doesn't seem like the sort of thing that would appeal to you.

[inkyubeytor]

You're right. I'm incapable of it.

There is a lot of learning that an individual might want to partake in or be curious about without empathizing.

After all, many psychopaths possess a desire or curiosity toward learning.

[reassures]

Does that mean you consider yourself a psychopath?

[inkyubeytor]

No. Psychopaths are still capable of feeling emotions. They simply don't care about or understand other people's emotions.

Human emotions are curious things to me, Nill.

[reassures]

If that's the case, what do you feel? More or less than a psychopath?

[inkyubeytor]

No. Psychopathy is, in most cases, a purely human experience.

[reassures]

So what do you consider yourself? In 'human' terms.

[inkyubeytor]

A being driven ultimately by duty and curiosity.

[reassures]

But not feeling.

Outside of curiosity, do you feel anything?

[inkyubeytor]

No.

Well, I have likes and dislikes - preferences.

[reassures]

It sounds like a strange way to exist.

[In a way, she's a little envious. Mostly though, she thinks he's a little pitiable.]

[inkyubeytor]

I think humans are strange.
