CALLIOPE: yoU mean to say that yoUr life is the basis for all of JADEGARDEN?

JADE: yes :(

JADE: if it wasnt for me, none of this have happened

JADE: i dont even really understand it all yet

JADE: but its clear that all of this nonsense is a direct result of me existing at all

CALLIOPE: hmmm.

CALLIOPE: forgive me for saying this, bUt i think yoU are taking far too mUch credit for sUch a thing!

CALLIOPE: having regrets and making mistakes is something earned as a natUral resUlt in a life well lived!

CALLIOPE: i mUst confess i have perhaps the least experience with this phenomenon, bUt even a life sUch as yoUrs with many complex moments of sadness and loneliness is something qUite special on its own.

CALLIOPE: in this experience yoU have foUnd parts of yoUrself that yoU never knew before!

CALLIOPE: is that not thrilling?

JANE: I agree, full stop.

JANE: Regrets are perfectly normal to have, Jade.

JANE: Everyone does, but you can’t let that get you down!

JADE: aw you guys <3

JADE: its just confusing because i think the NARRATOR was not totally wrong

JADE: i mean she was wrong about so much

JADE: like being a serial jade killer for example >:(

JADE: but some of it...

JADE: maybe she had a point

CALLIOPE: what do yoU mean?

JADE: it just really feels like

JADE: all of this inescapable emptiness is my fault

JADE: these are all technically choices i made :(

JADE: or i guess that i will ALWAYS make

JADE: because i guess being alone is the universal constant of being a jade

JADE: every jade here would do anything, including alter their own memories, to be free of their loneliness!

JADE: and i cant blame them
