Fancy meeting another, all the way out here. Although, maybe it is not all that surprising; I have a feeling that if you had never travelled here to meet me, I would not be here to greet you.

Well, if you say so. Perhaps you could say that I had greeted anyone that would come visit, whether they heard or not...Being an afterimage sure is complicated.

As you can see, my hands are quite full. Although these things are all dear to me, if I am to part with them, I would prefer to leave them in the hands of another. You must understand. What, of mine, would you like?

Well, how polite. But what is there to introduce? My title is right there, to the left. "Maker of the Site". But even that is not truly all that important; just think of me as an appreciator. Of art, of worlds. This world.

Why, yes. An appreciator of this world. The world of Pathologic, and this website both. The framing device of a world is a vital part of it, after all. Whether dolls, curtains, or angle-brackets. It should be enjoyed as well. To fully appreciate the set, one should appreciate its dressing, too.

So very much. Even the duller parts have a certain shine to them, for me. There was a lot of walking to get here for you, wasn't there? How did you find it? I find even the walking wonderful. No matter how 'boring' others call parts of the world...it's all wonderful to me.

Much to appreciate here, too. I think, to pay effective tribute to something that cares so much about appearances, one should care about appearances too. The meta-presentation of it, so to speak. I could have written this all out normally, but...well...firstly, I'm a bit of a freak, so there's that to contend with, as well...

Anyway, this conversation is long past its finale. We're running into the encore's allotted time. Besides, if you wanted to talk to me, there is a far more up-to-date equivalent you could talk to. I am but a somber remnant of some evening spent writing a dialogue tree into a Notepad file. Or 'monologue', I suppose it would be.

Even after this talk with me, you'll play into the game?
