First Track; Voice

[scratchitti]

So this is a weird question but...

Throw a hand up if you're pretty sure you were supposed to be dead before you showed up here?

Oh and... if you're rooming in 007 drop a line too. Erm. Thanks

[The question catches Walter by surprise, and when he thinks he'd heard that voice someplace between the Terminal Building and now - two and two come snapping together. My god, would that explain a thing...]

Me.

That is, I'm supposed to be living in 007. Veemon and me, that is.

And that last I recall back home I can safely say that I was quite dead. Huh - truth be told, I'd better have been.

[A huff, between a laugh and a brief sigh.] "I'll live". Wasn't it?

[Neku remembers that voice- between Kaldur and this fellow he's feeling a little better about having to have roommates.]

Yeah, I have a bad habit of living. Even when I'm dead.

Whatdaya mean, 'better be'?

This... doesn't strike me as a great way to delve on into painful details. So, let's just say for now that I was a necessary sacrifice.

What d'you mean "habit"?

[Audio]

[scratchitti]

Fair enough. [He's not thrilled to talk about his own death either, after all]

Just... I keep living even if other people probably deserve it more.

[Pause.]

Is that so...

[Indeed more of a phrase than a question, spoken gravely and with another wave of plain sympathy. What else can he say to a lone claim like that - at least meaningfully, on the spot?]

[Walter, of course, can't see the awkward shrug]

Sorry. kinda in a grim mood.

[Audio]

[beforeweproceed]

Won't hold it against you.

[scratchitti]

Thanks.

...so, we're rooming together, huh? You met Kaldur yet?
