[He nodded.]

All this... Do you think--this is how things are? It can't be another illusion, can it? We must really be like this.

[It was all so bleak, except for the fact that he'd been freed.

He kept holding on to Waver's hand, sensing that he might need it. He could tell how upset the other man was.]

I don't know. He's not as open as Diarmuid is. He's harder to read. He might not take it well.

I don't want to think about it. I was expecting that we were all homunculi, or just...We're not even organic, for god's sake. This is insanity on too large a scale for anyone to have predicted, it just doesn't make sense.

[And Waver hated when things didn't make sense.]

For everyone's sake, I hope you're wrong. Don't take it personally, but if everything goes back to normal I'd rather not have Lancelot being...well, Berserker.

We're still ourselves, no matter what we look like. I feel like myself. Focus on that. You're still Waver.

Maybe it makes sense, even if we don't know enough yet. We're learning more. I'm sure you'll be able to come up with a new theory.

[More and more, he thinks it's like one of his science fiction stories, but that may be a self-defense mechanism. It's easier to think of things as being like a story. He inwardly believes robots make as much sense as homunculi, but then, he's not a very good magus.]

I won't take it personally. I never wanted to give him Mad Enhancement... [Not that it's easy to explain Zouken and his role in the War.] I don't think he'll become that again. I trust him.
