/ NOX PLUSHIES LET'S GO

/ oh. oh okay. nox you're so 😭😭😭

is that so?

' outcast ' is not what people primarily call me, but rather ' a traitor. ' it remains true - in a way - that i did indeed betray someone.

but seeing such a rotten darkness within a soul . . . i refused to be a silent witness.

nightmares as actively tools - and even being called out by the lady for being sick of following other peoples orders ...

nox your mind is so interested, i can't wait to find out more about what the hell you're up to

i'm also a firm believer that this line is very much projection on nox's part. he tried that, and look where it lead him. he could save everyone but himself.

they're also like. actively seeming to be doing things for their own benefit. 'bring zero back alive' but they kill him. seeing the

kill him, nox shrugs it off with a 'well, it's too late now' attitude.

/ like. allow me to ramble aimlessly here but

first thing i want to point out that's interesting is that he still seems to hold some of his behaviour before the betrayal - he actively encourages baku to leave but does nothing to free himself - in fact, when confronted with the fact his actions will

how nosey. i prefer to keep what is known about me limited.

hm. is this a chat about morals? it doesn't matter to me — breaking apart this world to erase CODE is all that matters.

if there must be collateral along the way . . . so be it.

where CODE no longer exists is a happier world for all.

[ to form a better world by breaking apart the ugly parts of the old . . . it's something nox feels has to be done. ]

and you don't know a thing about where / i'm / coming from.

[ how long

that mentality down - the look sent his way by nox at those words is harsh. far from the serene calm they carried themselves with moments before. ]

shut up!

[ teeth gritted, with his hand fiddling with the newer ring on his finger. a comfort for nox, even now. ]

it's types like you that get on my

[ they are, and nox isn't intent on letting his grudge against zero go anytime soon. until CODE finally stops functioning, nox will continue fighting. ]

is that so . . ?
that's why this world needs to be broken apart. if such evil people no longer exist . . .
