NetzachEpisode 4 SYSTEM: Set BACKGROUND: 'netzachBK', effect: 'none' SYSTEM: Play BGM: 'Tilarids - never frozen bottom flows ' SYSTEM: SHOW character: Angela (id: 'angela') at 'left', direction: 'right' SYSTEM: SHOW character: Tiphereth (id: 'tiphereth_a') at 'right' SYSTEM: Play BGM: 'Tilarids - Forgotten Entrance Of Memories' Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') Netzach’s done it again, Lady Angela! Angela (Id: 'angela') What has he done this time? Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') He finally gave me the report of our joint operation just now; it was due yesterday! Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') I can’t even find him anywhere now. I’m sure he’s just sleeping away somewhere, drunk as a fish. Angela (Id: 'angela') The Upper Sephirot should know where he is, go ask them. Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') I don’t want to talk to them! Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') Lady Angela, you must agree with me when I say that Netzach is lacking in way too many ways to be even a decent Sephirah. Angela (Id: 'angela') What is the point you are trying to make here, Tiphereth? Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') …I am suggesting that we should replace Netzach. Angela (Id: 'angela') Tiphereth. Angela (Id: 'angela') The replacement process is not meant to be a tool you can haphazardly abuse to remove any Sephirah you dislike. Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') I’m not abusing it! If I were, I would have replaced a majority of our Sephirot already. Angela (Id: 'angela') The Sephirot can only be replaced when they have what we consider to be a serious flaw, and can no longer perform their duties. Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') Netzach easily meets any condition of flaw that could be set, then; he’s not doing a single thing right… Angela (Id: 'angela') Netzach is playing his role. Being drunk on Enkephalin, becoming lethargic... it’s all part of the play. Angela (Id: 'angela') Let me add one more thing, Tiphereth. Even if we were to replace Netzach, do you really think that the new Netzach would become a diligent, hard-working Sephirah, wholly unlike the previous one? Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') ………… Angela (Id: 'angela') Please refrain from talking about the replacement process in such a rash manner. Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') ………… Angela (Id: 'angela') I know how you feel, but Netzach is a different matter. SYSTEM: HIDE character: Angela (id: 'angela') SYSTEM: SHOW character: Netzach (id: 'netzach') at 'left' Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') ………… Netzach (Id: 'netzach') Tiphereth, I have a pounding headache. Could you not shout? Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') I reminded Lady Angela about the replacement process! Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') Your days of irresponsibility will soon be over! Netzach (Id: 'netzach') You think I’d be scared of a threat like that? I hate to disappoint you… Netzach (Id: 'netzach') But that’s exactly what I want, Tiphereth. Don’t you get it? Tiphereth (Id: 'tiphereth_a') …Let’s see you say that when you’re crushed into a pile of scrap. SYSTEM: HIDE character: Tiphereth (id: 'tiphereth_a') Netzach (Id: 'netzach') …..Manager, I don’t really care whether you completed that last mission or not. Netzach (Id: 'netzach') I bet Miss Angela’s having regrets as well. Netzach (Id: 'netzach') I feel the exact same way about myself as little Tiphereth does, you see. Netzach (Id: 'netzach') Why haven’t I been smashed up yet? Miss Angela could get someone better than me to fill my position anytime she likes. Netzach (Id: 'netzach') If I was her, I’d have destroyed an AI like myself at the first chance I could get. Netzach (Id: 'netzach') ......... Netzach (Id: 'netzach') Well, this is awkward. Netzach (Id: 'netzach') I don’t expect you to say something nice to me. Don’t worry about it.
