retrospec | ding dong dell

[ Welcome to CUBEnix's office where the sleek design of modern tech merges with the back drop of ye old Art Deco interior. There's huge computer screens hanging from brackets from the ceiling, the beeps of an arcade game in the background and a bunch of scrolling code on the computer screen behind Yoon-sung. The man himself is dressed in his usual style of business casual by way of a designer brand though he had upgraded his usual scoop neck shirt for something less revealing to spare anyone of seeing his scarring. He also has acquired a spent bullet that someone strung on a piece of rawhide to turn into a necklace. ]

First off, I should welcome all our lovely new users to the Retrospec world where things don't make sense, and we are all going insane. The app is just our way to know who is part of the end users of this framework and who isn't. What I mean by that is those that can see and use the app are those who also notice all the changes happening in the world around us. Congratulations. We're all lost souls connected by a ghost program. If you have any questions about my experiences with it, just ask.

[ Because he is probably one of the few people who has managed to peek at the coding even if he didn't see anything of note. ] Second, what does love mean to you?

Personally, I'd like to think all. But I also know that's not the same, even if that's something that feels anathema to me.

I suppose I did prove some of what I'd do in August.

Yeah, I would like to think that too, but it's not always the case.

Would you do the same if it was your parents?

Obviously?

[ . . . . Look. ]

Even if it would hurt them in the process?

[ . . . Wait. ]

I might've misunderstood your question. Of course I'd save my parents (even if they've passed on now, I mean in theory)

But you meant if they caused the trouble?

Something like that. If they were doing something that you feel is wrong and that you need to stop them, would you still do it if it hurt them because you love them?

[ . . . How specific. Is this man going through something? ]

Yes.

It's actually a little easier for someone older, because they're more likely to understand. I said love's not finite, and its not - but that doesn't mean that you allow everything. Sometimes it means being the harshest at admonishing them.

[ Yes. Though she isn't actually hitting the reason why he is bringing any of this up. ]

I'm not so sure that is the case. Sometimes older people settle into their bad habits like teak.

But how harsh are you willing to be towards them?

[ . . . ]

I'm not sure if I'm dancing around the issue or you are at this point.

Look, the fact is that my parents passed on and were great people. If you're in trouble, do you want help?

I guess it's me.

I just.

Had a not so good memory in which my other decided to be dramatic in forcing his father to stop something serious.

[ Oh. ]

I see. I'm sorry that you had to experience something scary.

I don't think that scary describes it? It's more sad in a way.

Sad, then. Genuinely.

Are you hoping to understand where you were coming from?

I'm trying to understand his world. I think in a way, knowing what it is would make it easier to guess what else I may wake up for and maybe, make him feel less alone? IDEK if I'm explaining it right.

So you don't want yourself to feel lonely? Because you don't know what love is?

Hm? No, I'm not lonely, I'm trying to figure out what was up with the other and his reactions.

But does that mean you don't know what love is?

I try avoiding romantic love, but I do love my family and my friends.

So shouldn't you have your own understanding of things? Just widening that perspective?

Love's a real subjective thing no matter what, after all.

I guess that's true. I'm just a little muddled lately.

That's understandable, and getting inspiration from others is fine too. But remember its your feelings.

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind.
