Oh for Pete's sake. Not this again.

	Adrian? ~~I'm officially in Hell.~~ Yes. I was in this place once before. Is Rorschach around or did you kill him? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes, Daniel. And just as an aside? I can read that. No need to make me out to be such a monster, Daniel. I've no reason to kill him. His twisted moral code guarantees that if he were here, he'd be trying to kill me, so I feel fairly certain he isn't here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Well, according to the woman whom you've been conversing with, he is no longer around. I'm both saddened and relieved at the same time. While it might be a small comfort that he isn't here, that means my only friend in this place is gone.

And I'm stuck here with you.

And you are a monster. All the things you did to orchestrate your utopia...at least here you will not get that far. There are plenty to stop you. I'll stop you this time.

For someone that feels so strongly about this issue, Dan, you certainly agreed to keep it a secret quite readily. If I'm a monster, you are only slightly less so.

Of course, there is also this terribly incorrect image you have of me. You seem to think I liked doing what I did. I did not. As I told Jon, and would have told you if you hadn't been so quick to run off, I made myself feel every death. I have had nightmares... No. My nightmares are irrelevant.

I did what I did. I did not like it, I do not consider it a "good deed". However, Daniel, the Doomsday Clock was set to midnight and all life as we know it would have been annihilated had I not forced people to save themselves. Jon certainly wouldn't have done it, and the rest of us could make absolutely no quantifiable difference to the world. So I did what I had to do.

Here...things are different. Many things. It is a brighter world, Dan.

	I hate butting in, but - is this Veidt? Rorschach used to talk about him when we patrolled. I miss him too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So he was here? I suppose Jon might have sent him here. Yes, I am Adrian Veidt. I'm sure Rorschach has painted you a truly Kantian picture of me as the devil. The poor man was hopelessly obsessed with absolutes in a world where such ironclad certainties simply had no place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He just said he didn't want to see you. And he was getting better, thanks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That does not surprise me. That second sentence, however, does. He was truly getting better? I'm glad to hear it. I respected him, once upon a time. We ran in very different circles and disagreed over practically everything, but I respected him for having the wherewithal to do what we were all doing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Every time we patrolled together. I don't know, he called us friends once. I'm sorry I told him we weren't. We were. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That is good to hear. He's had such a hard time making and keeping friends. He was...very difficult to get along with. I confess, I felt very sorry for him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He's not here. You can save your pity. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	35minutesago 2009-03-03 02:03 pm UTC (link)
	I guessed as much. Perhaps he will reappear. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	flame_sniper 2009-03-03 02:06 pm UTC (link)
	I hope so. (Reply to this) (Parent)
