《Happy Ending》Chapter 29: It didn't make sense...

-You are going to be a person!
...
That was what he said full of confidence.
...
She needed to be a person.
...
Why?
...
To solve the problem.
...
Which problem?
...
The two people in the house bothering Chris.
...
But to be a person?
...
She knew about them. They were there most of the time. Walking in the streets, inside a store, used to fill the rest of the classroom, serving only to be in the background. Unlike the others, they weren't important for the story, at most, the only thing they had of worth was some sort of information to help the player and that was all.
...
...It didn't make any sense for her.
The problem could be solved easily.
1-Pick the knife;
2-Go to the area;
3-Use the knife;
4-Kill them;
5-Check if she succeeded.
If yes, problem solved. If no, repeat step 3 and 4. Simple.
But Chris didn't want her to kill. He wanted to solve this with her being a person. Why do that if the other option was so much optimal? It was...unnecessary.
-...Why?
No matter how much she thought about it, there was no worth in doing anything else other than that. Even better, it was inside their house. No place to hide that she couldn't find them. In the worst case scenario, all she would need to do was to run after them in the streets.
-Why would we risk that if we can just take the safest choice?
To suggest go the hard way, either you are planning to challenge your skills or are overconfidence about what you could really do. She wanted to know which one the boy was thinking when he said that.
But her doubts even grew bigger when the girl saw him making a sad face.
-...I...honestly don't know how to deal with all of this.

Just do it the easy way and let her deal with them.
-And frankly, I don't even know if things will go just like I think they will.
Then it was even weirder to take the risk.
-But, even then...
It didn't make any sense. What was that he wanted to tell her?
-I want to try this.
...
...
...
He only wanted to...try?
...
That was...it?
...
He would take a risk he wasn't even confident he would succeed just to see if he could try?
What would he gain for doing it? Nothing.
What reasons to do it? None.
There was no sense on his actions.
The ends of the hard and the easy way were the same.
There was no need for any of that just to try.
So...
-...Why are you doing this?
And it was then that the girl saw it for the first time since she was created. A face that didn't resemble anything she knew about.
Faces were a very special part of the body. They were the only way of knowing the emotions of each character. There were many faces in her memory. The happy ones, the sad ones, the shocked ones, the confused ones, the angry ones, and so on.
But that face. It resembled a bit of sadness, but it wasn't that. What was the name of that face? What was the meaning behind it? And why the boy has done such a face for her?
Weird...seen him with that face...didn't make her feel good.
-Because if we don't do this now, who knows what will happen afterward?
And his answer didn't help either.
Not chose the easiest way, do something unnecessary, it wasn't for the challenge nor his assurance that it would work.
The girl couldn't understand, and probably never would.
Unless...
-...Got it.
She saw it with her own eyes.
If he was going to risk such a thing, there must be a reason she didn't know. But only one thing was certain for the girl: If Chris was going to take that risk, then she would be there to assist him.
-I will become a person.

Upheaval - The Gentle Apocalypse
The world is changing, but people carry on. Early in the summer, the world started changing. It is not known who first found out, but magic was real, or had become real. Of course, with the world as interconnected as it is, it took only two days for most people to know about it. Online groups sprang up, eager to test humanity’s collective new toy. Quickly, it was found out that it was all but harmless; there were (unconfirmed) reports of deaths as soon as the first day. Nevertheless, it is a novelty to most, trying it out like you’d try sports or a game. The world marches on as scientists set out to study this new phenomenon, to use it for furthering our collective knowledge and to understand it. But that won’t show any results any time soon; it is only five days since the “Reveal” meanwhile I’m out camping. I had planned this since March, to unwind from sixteen years of studying. Finally! Finally I am done with school! Getting a job is another matter… So I figured, with this magic stuff, why not try out meditating on it? I’ve enjoyed more than enough books and other media that at least some of the magic methods should be viable. Turns out, the world might not let me relax. R15+ Coarse language and adult themes. This story is finished.
