[Video] UN: Komaeda
[The video starts with a close up of Komaeda's face as he's messing with the settings. It's advanced technology he's not familiar with, but it didn't take him long to get it going. Nothing ever takes him long to figure out when he tries.
He leans away and offers a smile, but it's a smile that doesn't quite reach his eyes. He's tired. There's a weight there. People who are familiar with him might notice it's a little less carefree than he usually is. But then it's only to be expected.]
Hello! This is quite the interesting thing to be suddenly rushed through. They said anomalies were the cause, but isn't that a bit curious? "Anomaly" is such a vague term. It's the sort of thing you see on TV used to hand wave fantastical concepts they don't want the audience to think of too much. So is there something not being explained here?
[Of course he barrels straight to the delicate question.]
But, what do I know? There's a lot of surprising things happening all at once. In fact, at this point I wouldn't be surprised if I was told we were in some sort of MMO! Being in some sort of elaborate program would make more sense than not anyway.
[He goes quiet for a moment, his expression far away lost in thought. It takes him a moment to remember the camera and go back to his train of thought.]
Ah, since I was just recently welcomed to this little expedition, I should introduce myself. My name is Komaeda Nagito. There's not really anything else to say, I'm a bit luckier than most people?

[With his luck something horrible will happen!]
But, perhaps you'll be right, perhaps this time there won't be an unfortunate situation.
[He didn't feel convinced, but there wasn't much of a choice either.]
I'll go and wait for you, since you insist.
no subject
[At least Komaeda is going to listen to him. That's a victory...sort of? He's seen more of their class has made it here and that is both a relief and it isn't.]
I won't make you wait long. ...try not to get into too many fights. Alright? [Because he does not feel up to being damage control right now.]
no subject
[He can't help people misunderstanding.]
And how do you know this is reality? Is there anything to prove that?
[Thankfully he can figure out on his own how to get down to the planet and the general procedure for it.]
no subject
We're here. That's reason enough to call it reality for now. And what do you think you were doing last time we talked?
[That was antagonizing people. The whole trial was antagonizing. He could point all this out but instead he glares at the screen.]
no subject
[But enough about existentialism.]
Ah, it's true, I was a little mad. [Understatement.] And in the end we're all just worthless. It had to be done though, and I don't mind if you hate me.
[It wasn't exactly true, but at the same time he would easily welcome it.]
Ah... it really was bad luck in the end. Such a disappointment. Was the result even fortunate? Was it the hopeful outcome? The only thing left with everyone surviving is to simply hate me. That would be normal, right?
no subject
I don't hate you. So much for 'normal'.
[He's supposed to be the normal one but ha.]
It's not escapism. There's just a lot more important things to worry about than if this is another program or not.
no subject
[Hinata was free to stop talking at any point and resume the conversation in person, it wasn't like he was forcing him to speak.]
Oh? Like what? I feel like it's rather important to know where you stand. Especially when things are not the way they should be. Am I dead? Am I alive? I suppose in a way no matter what I am alive.
How disappointing.
no subject
Just don't cause any trouble, alright? Can you at least try to do that?

I'll see you soon. [And he cuts the connection to get the last word. Petty, but he's too drained already.]
