Who: Legion and you + a couple of closed toplevels
What: Revival
When: Jan 28th
Where: Temple + other locations on Enso
Warnings: Mentions of death. Not sure what else will come up.
(The Shadow's cruel words are partially obscured by static and the feedback from damaged systems, and the sight of its departure fades as Legion's vision cuts out.
Then, they wake up.
Disoriented, they spend some time wandering around the temple and the surrounding area.
For those who encounter them, it should be immediately obvious that something is wrong: they are unable to speak in any language save for Geth.)

what i am
all that matters
is what i do
[They cannot make it better,, they cannot atone for it, they cannot mend what their kind has wrought, but they can commit themself to leaving the world a little kinder, a little better, than how they entered it.]

We have already discussed this. This interaction has repeatedly resulted in logical loops. We apologize for the distress we have caused.
After a moment, they sit down.
Will you join us?)
no subject
[They're going in circles. Logical loops. Impossible to escape, and that's not what they do; going in loops isn't moving forward.]
not ashamed
[There's just no point in dwelling.]
[They look away.]
why
no subject
Are you afraid?
It would be understandable, though they are uncertain why the Drifter fears even other synthetics.
We enjoy interacting with you. We are willing to switch to a topic of your choosing.)
no subject
[They're not unaccustomed to this; it is a weak excuse.]
not afraid
something i do not wish to discuss
[It more has to do with a deeply ingrained sense of shame than anything else.]
no subject
They stand up. They'll leave, in that case.
Regardless of your origins and your opinion of them, you are our ally.)
no subject
[They cannot fix this conversation. They cannot fix any of what has been done; there is only moving forward. But they're trapped in circles.]
and you ours
no subject
And they'll just walk away.)
