[ she laughs. she knows what he means, but also: ]

I do. I get tired of a lot of bureaucratic and upper management decisions. But it's different when it's someone like you, Marcoh.

[boxcar]

Bureau...? You don't look like someone who sits well in an office.

[florescences]

I don't! But even I had to have some kind of job. Every organization has its own leadership and the bureaucracy that comes with it.

[boxcar]

What do you do?

[florescences]

Hmm... a lot of waiting?

[ not untrue. ]

I was a soldier.

[boxcar]

[ He... blinks. ]

You?

[ Soldiers in his world are really just like. So much. You can tell he definitely was not expecting this. ]

[florescences]

[ that makes her laugh. ]

Surprising? I was, for a time. There weren't too many people who can adapt to Honkai and how it's destroying humanity.

[boxcar]

What is that?

[ What do you mean destroying humanity. Girl what. ]

[florescences]

It's something that's been causing a lot of death and destruction. It can infect people, make them ill, cause radiation, natural disasters, create monsters...

[ she sounds like she could go on, but she ends it there because it paints enough of a picture. ]

[boxcar]

[ Hello? ]

And that is something you can fight?

[florescences]

Some parts of it. The monsters, at least, we can defeat. People have been researching ways to cure Honkai Radiation, but the only cure so far is expensive.

[boxcar]

Expensive because resources, or expensive in price?

[florescences]

Both. I don't know the exact details, but it's not a cure that can be made easily.

You have not seen progress? In the "Current Era"?
