"Replace?" Hoshiki furrows his brow. "Typically, a synthetlc body is fashioned for a Reaper in likeness of their past self, so that their spirit can return to lnteract with world of the living on a human level. A synthetic soul is then placed to guard it, waiting for the Reaper's ret...

Re: Apocalypse Junction
[Somewhere in the Desert] At first, the swordsman pays little attention to the lone camel herder. He becomes suspicious when he realizes their paths will intersect before he can catch up to the ragtag bunch of misfits and their tracked vehicle. Is this newcomer after the same people as he? No, does...

The swordsman sits down opposite to the detective and leans back, the chair creaking under his weight. "Well, what are we waiting for?", he asks, spreading his arms. "Let's see it."

Well, there is still a syringe piercing into his head, filling his brain with that glowing liquid. Nemo might have a different idea of how gentle Lucia's methods are if he could see himself from the outside. But, in his mind, the dream continues, speeding through more imagined life events.
