“I don’t want the world to end,” Bonesaw said. “It’s fun.”
Relatable.
“It is. But I expect it won’t end altogether. There’s always going to be survivors.”
Keep in mind that in order to prey on them, you’re going to need to survive yourself.
“True.”
“And it makes for an interesting picture. After everything’s gone, there’ll be a new beginning. Who better to craft the remains into a new world than you and Mannequin?”
Hang on.
Do they not know what happened to Mannequin yet? Or was Lisa right to say she’d believe it when she saw it?
Or is Bonesaw intending to recover Mannequin’s bits and revive him?
“And Amelia?”
“And Amelia, if she so chooses. We could be like gods in a new world.”
Gods in a new world? Don’t forget you need to die on a bed and get cool magic pajamas first.
“You’re crazy,” Panacea muttered.
“According to studies, clinically depressed individuals have a more accurate grasp of reality than the average person.
I doubt Bonesaw is clinically depressed, but who knows.
Or maybe he’s talking about Amy. Or just going “well why can’t the same apply to insanity”, which would be silly.
We tell ourselves lies and layer falsehoods and self-assurances over one another in order to cope with a world colored by pain and suffering. We put blinders on. If we lose that illusion, we crumble into depression or we crack and go mad. So perhaps I’m crazy, but only because I see things too clearly?”
Mmm.
It’s not a bad excuse.
