[It looks like she was going to train, but she'll pause once Akane approached her.]

So it seems. I can't believe our luck hasn't run out.

[specialdog]

Maybe not on that front.

But people are still dying.

[televised]

I know.

But this... It's a war of attrition. Everything we can do to minimize the damages buys us more time.

[specialdog]

[ At least Akane actually sounds like she agrees and not like she's trying to pick a fight. ]

As long as we actually get some kind of outcome where we aren't all just dead, then yeah.

[televised]

That's the goal. Though it'd be easier if someone stopped fucking up all our hard work.

[HORSE KILLER, TURN ON YOUR LOCATION. SHE JUST WANTS TO TALK.]

[specialdog]

I don't think we can count on that... Things will get worse before they get better.

[ ... if they get better at all, being the implication there. ]

[televised]

Assuming we survive things getting worse than they already are. We've lost ten people in one month.

[specialdog]

When you really think about it like that, we're not doing so well, are we...?

It's easy to look at it in week-by-week successes, but...

[televised]

On the grand scale of things, we're doing horribly.

[stop! killing! while! not! corrupted!]

[specialdog]

It's hard to focus on the big picture when we have so much small chaos going on. But I'm not even sure we have the resources to try and tackle the bigger picture. It's like it's set up this way.

[televised]

Well, it's not like I disagree... Maybe the universe is pushing us to self-destruct.

[specialdog]

[ She laughs. ] Maybe it wants to destroy everything so it can start over.

[televised]

I can't blame it if it's gotten tired of humanity's shit.

[specialdog]

Me either! I would want to start over, too.

[televised]

It'd be great if it could take care of that without dragging us into its shit, though.
