So it is an afterlife, in a sense.

[fill_the_blanks]

Yep. You don't seem too surprised.

[from_adam_down]

I did agree to it.

[fill_the_blanks]

Heeh... So that's actually a thing now? Up until recently no one had a choice about wanting to come or not.

[from_adam_down]

Ah, that would be disorienting.

[fill_the_blanks]

Well, you get used to it one way or another... So why'd you choose to come?

[from_adam_down]

I was given a chance to continue existing, and I accepted it.

[fill_the_blanks]

Haha, not too complicated, I guess.

[from_adam_down]

It seemed an obvious choice.

[fill_the_blanks]

Hmm... It isn't always obvious, so it seemed worth asking.

[from_adam_down]

Ah, it isn't?

[fill_the_blanks]

You're kind of a strange guy, aren't you.

[from_adam_down]

You aren't the first person to say that.

[fill_the_blanks]

I'm Kon. Ah.. Shinonome, if you want my family name.

[from_adam_down]

Kaworu Nagisa. It's nice to meet you, even if you do think I'm strange.

[fill_the_blanks]

Kaworu huh... Well, being strange wasn't an insult.

[from_adam_down]

So you don't mind?

[fill_the_blanks]

Nah. Not yet, anyway. Maybe it depends how strange you get.

[from_adam_down]

I guess we'll find out.

[fill_the_blanks]

Ah, your question earlier. Basically, since the reasons people die or get themselves killed are really varied, it's no guarantee that at their point of death they're all interested in continuing to exist, especially in a place like this that's completely foreign and basically separated from everything they knew.

[from_adam_down]

Hmm...

[he seems like he's mulling this over for a minute]

I wonder which would be worse— unexpectedly finding yourself somewhere as different as this, or living on after you've already accepted your death.

[fill_the_blanks]

Depends on the person. Though I'd say there's not too much point in comparing which is worse from one person to another.
