ALL EFFECTS DROPPED

[Born again.

And to those doomed to rebirth, the concept of pain. Rusting away on the spot, screaming as all do from womb; and here the spasmodic jerking, stretching out of limbs, count 'em-- two arms, two legs but all fully corrupted,] (yes, yessss!) [all tainted flesh. Baby's first steps are unstable. The rust gasps lungfuls of air (as authentic as it gets in .flow) but its legs already collapse under its own weight. Crawl, then.]

i live again

[(what a lovely day to be borne once more), the rust thinks, and staggers to her knees, to its feet, then out into the open expanse of the Nexus.]

hello world!-- --

[It stops short--in confusion, or perhaps fear?

[There's someone here in the Nexus with Rust. Someone] (host ??) [who looks astoundingly exact to the one freshly killed. This cannot be, and yet it is.

[The rust only carries the surprised expression for only a few panicked heartbeats before a beaming smile slowly spreads in its stead. It'll be more fun this way, after all.]

you are here in flesh, [it remarks, drawing a little nearer,] and here i am in yours!

[Its eyes roam over the dreamer's person, eager glee slowly rising, rising, rii-iising. What was it they mocked this girl with? Ah, right--]

sa-- bi-- tsu--- ki----! [Rust crows, then rushes to grab the other by her shoulders.]
