Morning | Is it morning already? I can't believe I wrote all night... (Sigh) If only I could push my deadline back by another two days. | |||
Afternoon | Want to watch a movie with me? Work...? It's the afternoon, how can you work in the afternoon? | |||
Evening | Be quiet when you come back at night. I don't want to be disturbed when I watch mo... Ah, I mean, when I'm analyzing scenes. I don't slack off, you know. | |||
Night | It's really quiet late at night in the Oasis. Just looking at the contrast between night and day for various buildings is enough to get my inspiration flowing. In any case, let's just make a note of it first. | |||
Main Interface Voice | Artists and writers are fundamentally the same thing. The first procrastinates till the deadline, and so too, does the second. | |||
Banknotes are almost gone in this day and age. I was hoping for the chance to print a face onto one. | ||||

I'm reading now, so please be quiet. ...Ah, did you want to say something? | ||||
...Hang on, I'll take you there. | ||||
Interactive Voice | Don't touch my bangs, it'll interfere with my inspiration. | |||
This isn't a family friendly method of hitting on people, you know. Best be careful you don't end up in my next work. | ||||
Hm? Have I uncovered a hidden trait of yours? | ||||
Relationship Dialogues | Professor, recently I've been thinking about a script starring you, but I found a problem while I was doing character design. Your background and your performance seem very much at odds with each other. Here we have a professor who's been doing research for many years and has a certain degree of fame for it, who goes on to demonstrate extraordinary skill in combat leadership. I can't seem to resolve this contradiction no matter how I try to reconcile your past. Could you explain the reason behind this to me? | |||
My works? One moment please... That's right, they're all my works. It's not particularly impressive, it's just that my experiences were different from those of other screenwriter Dolls. There's a section of my memories which has been erased. While I don't know what exactly was in them, I now have a better understanding of the concept of "loss". | ||||
I sometimes envy my human colleagues. I always get the feeling that the words they write contain a strange thing that I don't understand. It's clearly the same style of writing, but I never get tired of reading it. I think humans call this divine gift "wit", and one day I'll find out exactly what it is. I'm sure Doll screenwriters will be able to come up with works that transcend established formulas too. | ||||
I like being an author very much, because I can experience a different life through words. It's a very strange feeling—in just a few tens of thousands of words, one can go from nothing to something, ascend from the foothills of mountains to the clouds at its peak, and perfectly live another life. Still, it's not like it doesn't come at a price. My neural cloud systems have always been more susceptible to overloading than those of other Dolls. I guess it's because I keep experiencing complex emotions. From a religious point of view, one could consider it a form of ascetic study. | ||||
I've written many stories in the past, but no matter what I do, I can't fill up that gap in my life and get rid of the emptiness and fear it brings. I once thought that I would just have to live on with that emptiness and fear, until one day when my neural cloud system would finally give up that ghost and crash for good. And then, I met you, like a mentor from all those heroic stories. I wasn't able to make sense of it for a long time, but I learned how to face my present and pen my future. If I can't change a script's beginning, then I'll just have to make the following scenes and the conclusion more exciting, right? | ||||

Oath | I always thought that the things I'd forgotten were very important things. Someone took away my past and replaced it with a void. So I've been writing all this time, not daring to stop, afraid that someday, I'd lose my present, just like before. Do you still want to be a part of my story, even after knowing this? Do you want to be a part of a scrapbook like myself, with an indistinct cover, a muddled spine, and filled to the brim with abnormality? I'll record your promise, your feelings, and every last bit of you. Words will always last longer than our actions in the present. Once you're written in, you can never be erased, Professor. | |||
Obtain | I'm Nora, though that's a pen name. Idle chatter aside, I'd like a quiet environment... my deadline is approaching and I haven't written a thing yet.
