"That's why we stopped calling him a fake when we learned of his past. It wouldn't be fair to him if we had continued. Ness feels bad about it himself, although right now he has something else on his mind."
Poo doesn't look at the stone, but he still sees what's happening. Because he's Poo.
Then they looks at Lapis.
"Uh... is this bad?", Paula asks.
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.Paula looks relieved.
"If he's alright, that's good."
She walks over to Lapis to try and softly stroke his fur. Jeff and Poo stay close to her though, just in case.
Ness is still out of it.
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay."Uh... well, it's..."
Ness sighs.
"...If a person you know has done a lot of bad things, and I mean a lot of bad things, things that would make that person look like an omnicidal maniac, but that very person comes to you and asks you for forgiveness, and sounds sincere about it... should that person recieve it?"
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay."Psycho!Ness is... different from Porky..."
Ness rubs his arm when he hears the Dragonborn's and Flint's answers.
"O-oh... you think I should..."
He turns away, looking sad. Paula walks to them.
"It happened yesterday night. We met Porky again, Ness's neighbor and someone who loved to be an evil monster. He actually asked Ness to forgive him and I think he meant it."
Ness shakes his head.
"But I refused. Porky has done too much. I just... can't forgive him anymore..."
Paula puts her hand on Ness's shoulder while still looking at the others.
"After that, Porky gave us Ness's yo-yo and a data disc, and fled. He was too stunned for words. All he said was 'I understand' in a weird tone. I have no idea what's going through Porky's head right now."
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay."He didn't bully me into it though... he actually said sorry...", Ness says. "F-for some reason I feel awful about rejecting his apology... but I just can't trust him anymore..."

Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay."Well, if this 'Porky' you speak of actually said sorry, then reacted so reasonably in response to you not forgiving him, then it would seem that he may truly be regretting his actions," the Dragonborn says to Ness. "Like I said, forgive him, but make it a point to remind him that he should not take your forgiveness for granted and that if he should ever go back to his old ways, then you might not be so willing to give him a third chance."

and after that?
another bear... made of stone and diamonds... we fought... until he suddenly stopped. We heard a melody and a second voice
Mine?
yes
he doesn't lie
I hope. He is intelligent enough to do that, but I doubt he can lie while having his shadow inspected
Welcome back, Lapis
Both Wolfen and Dero remove their weapons from Lapis head

Poo nods.
"Psycho!Ness is, next to Queen Mary, the strongest Magicant user. He can even warp into it, body and all, and heal or rest there. It's where Ness had to defeat him to unlock the power to save the world. But as it was explained to us, yes, he was locked in his own mind while his body developed a new spirit, which became this Ness. In a way, Psycho!Ness really is the original Ness."
Ness looks at Flint.
"I'm wondering if I made the right decision to not accept it."
Jeff looks at the stone.
"What's happening?"
Paula is still staring at Mystia. Seems like she really did find her beautiful.
