NO! Axel, I-

You...

Where...?

Well, someone just murdered me--roasted me alive--without offering so much as a decent explanation.

Only B-rated movie murderers give reasons. Welcome to reality.

Are you attempting to tell me that you are some sort of psychopath? That you kill for no reason except the kill itself? I have my doubts, Axel.

You are many things, Number Eight, but a fool is not among them. You are a schemer, much like my former colleague.

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

So many things wrong with that, I don't even know where to start.

Small is good, though. Like how I'm not the Axel you know.

[chillyshade.livejournal.com]

Given that the Axel I know is probably still in the castle, gloating over his victory, that is not particularly difficult to believe.

You are a construct of Tartarus, no?

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

Given how this isn't Tartarus, I'd have to say no.

[chillyshade.livejournal.com]

In response, I'd have to say that I am reluctant to believe you.

[andthereis.livejournal.com]

Look around. Last I checked, Tartarus wasn't some multiversal rest stop for the dead.

Is that--are those--multiples of me?

Get out the bells and whistles, we've got a winner.
