See, this right here, this is why you're not ready to be a Witch. Friendship transcends alliances. You can have battles with your friends, and you can be genuinely angry with them at times. But the key thing is, friends come back to each other once cooler heads prevail.

And as for how much I know, well. You're probably better off not knowing that.

That's really weird. I kind of thought Witches were also beyond friendships and stuff like that. I've never found any use for any of that.

[He's from entirely the wrong canonpoint to understand this shounen rhetoric?? Honestly.

Granted, he seems to gloss over the finer details entirely, but that might just be him being himself.]

You've still got to be cryptic, huh... Did your knowledge help you, when it came to who Nirrti would take every week?

Once again, I have to say 'You are not a Witch' as an explanation for why you can't understand it.

And no, I have to figure out the mystery alongside the rest of you.

You're going to make me way more curious about being a Witch if you say things like that!

[He shoves at Watanuki's feet again, because why not.]

So you really don't know the most important things... or you don't know what to do about them.

[He kicks back >T ]

I have to figure it all out alongside you. Nirrti knows the mysteries already. I don't. It's not about "knowing the important things", it's that she's the 'storyteller' and I'm the 'player'.

Ooh. Is that why she’s doing so much of the setup and the trials and everything? I was really wondering about that.

[He laughs when he gets kicked.]

What does it mean, anyway? Storyteller and player? Doesn’t that mean she’s got more power?

Not really. We're both equals here.

Hmm. So, do you know what kind of story she's telling yet?

Despair, if I had to guess. She doesn't like that I see Humans as worth caring about.

Ah. Like the story in the book, right? I think we all know that's her story by now.

"Humans will drive away and destroy anyone and anything different from themselves." That's the base nature of humans, and all living things. That they look out for their own interests. And they trample the interests of others to get there.

I kind of get it, you know? Even if her story is really dramatic.

After all, I figured humans were pretty useless, too. So I was going to help wipe them all out.

[This is the backstory exposition you never wanted. RIP.]

Denied.

[This is said with all the conviction of Someone who is scolding a small child for saying something silly. ]

If you kill them, you will accumulate a grudge. You don't need that.

[He starts laughing.]

I thought I'd accumulate karma or something! You Witches have way too many different terms for things.

Besides, it wasn't just my desire to wipe them out. It was the desire of the Celestial children who hated them, because they were forced to grow up with humans who hated their guts and shunned them. All I was doing was helping out.

[He's quiet for a moment.]

That happened to almost all the Celestials in the human world that I know of.

Of course, I don't really care about them that much. Celestials and Infernals are natural enemies.

You would get the karma too, but a grudge is different. You don't want a grudge.

And at least take responsibility for the damage you do. Even if you were 'helping out', you still did those actions.

Now I just really want to know what a grudge is. Is it like a curse?

[He can't help it, he's an eternally curious creature, okay.

That being said, it's a little bit of an aside as he hums to himself a little, seemingly thinking over Watanuki's words.]

Of course I take responsibility. I just mean that... humans are like that. Celestials, too. [...] So are Infernals. I bet Witches are like that too, and everyone here has some part of that in them. So what I really wanted to do...

I wanted to destroy every world I knew of. That was my dream.

To make a different path for myself.

[Anon wtf

That actually gets Watanuki to sit up. ]

You realize you know of a lot more worlds now, right? That's a lot of worlds to destroy.

[I mean. He's a villain. I don't know what you expected here.

There's a little laugh, almost like he expected that reaction. Why wouldn't he?]

Hahaha... That was kind of my reaction, too. When I got to the Foundation.

[He did mention that at some point. Learning all the new things, that is. There's a brief moment of quiet where he just stares at the ceiling.]

The universe is really, really big. Is there an end to it even for the Witch of Dimensions?

Not really. There is an infinite number of possibilities across an infinite number of timelines. That's why people get lost in the Sea of Fragments.

Why are you asking, Anon?

I figured.

[He actually sits up for this, glancing at Watanuki before staring out the window.

There's a hint of a smile on his face.]

It was a really short-sighted dream, wasn't it? I thought that if I was strong enough, I could just wipe out everything and start over. And there wouldn't be anyone or anything that could get in the way anymore.

[For a split-second, it almost sounds like he still wants it that way. But he shakes his head after a moment.]

But if there's just infinite worlds in the way, then... there had to be a different way. That's what I was thinking about while I was at the Foundation, and they wanted to run all those boring tests.

[S...surprise character development????

Don't give the noodle a heart attack like that. ]

I won't lie and say it isn't tempting, but you're right. With infinite worlds, you can't wipe everything out and try again.

[It's like you're asking him to be a different person or something.

Character development doesn't work like that!! Heart attack away, noodletunes.]

Haha, is it tempting for you, too? With all your power.

[That's actually just plain teasing, but in an Anon way. He snickers briefly before nodding.]

So that's the other reason I haven't gone to Nirrti. I don't really... have a wish that needs her power at all. And I've always liked granting my own wishes with my own strength, anyway.

I'm the kind of person who always wanted to change himself. So when I finally had the chance to...

[He took it. He took it immediately.]

I think I see what you're getting at, though. And that's admirable, to want to do things of your own volition.

What did you change into, anyway?

[He's not sure if he's talking about Witchhood or shop life or whatever, okay, he's not CLAMP-savvy enough for this even though he talks to Syaoran enough to have the basics.

There's a laugh.]

Didn't we talk about this? Might makes right! [he says it like a mantra, but in a silly way this time] But careful, you're going to start admiring the wrong people if you say things like that.

[That earns a light chuckle. ]

You're right, I'll be more careful. And I changed into 'me'.

Hmm? Does that mean you became a Witch...

[Cryptic as always, wow??]

I guess... there's just one more question I have for you, though.

How hard is it to get your own Fragment?

[wow so cryptic]

For me, it's not so hard. I have a natural talent for traveling through the Sea of Fragments. For others, it ranges from 'not too hard so long as you stay focused' to 'impossible.'
