[The link appears to have been... dropped. It's just sitting on the floor of a hallway in Trion's temple. There's a partial view of a nearby room, the door half-open and sitting strangely on its hinges. The room itself appears... trashed. Like the storm blew through the room as well as the Haven.]
[Everything is absolutely still. Absolutely silent.]
[For several minutes.]
[And then something slams itself down off-screen, hard enough to rattle the Link itself. It actually vibrates a few inches forward at the impact.]
[Someone laughs. There's no amusement in the sound, only smug satisfaction.]
Look! Look, look, look!
[The voice is probably familiar, but the cadence is all wrong. The speaker grabs the Link, jerking it toward the room.]
I did it. I did it so well too, didn't I? You thought you had me -- what was it? What was it? Are you punishing me? Is that it?
No, no. That won't do. I got out!
[More laughter. Delighted, echoing laughter.]
[And all of the sudden, a face pops on-screen, upside down. The smile it wears is sharp, harsh. It's... Kagerou?]
Aren't. You. Proud? Brave Police.
[There is a fevered light in his optics -- both of which are visible now, the scanner no longer marking half his face. And then the feed goes dark.]

[Okay . . . so . . . the reasonable approach isn't going to work. What does he do!? If Kagerou won't listen to him-...]
[An idea begins to form. But . . . oh, he's not sure he can pull it off! No . . . no, he has to. He has to at least try. If it means getting Kagerou to calm down enough to listen to him, to really /listen/...]
[His optics dim, nearly going dark, head bowing a bit as he . . . he MAKES himself remember. Remember the hurt, the anger, t-the jealousy, every ugly thing he'd fallen into that one time when he'd felt rejected and abandoned by Yuuta.]
[Seems Kagerou's used to a meaner, more demanding version of him. He'll do his damnedest to deliver.]
