"I am GENUINELY. REGRETTING. Introducing you to Rukie. Why do you show me that acfcursed mirror, and WHY of all people did you focus on that INSIGNIFICANT FUCK!?"

"Because, Mathew. I want to show you my new revelation. That boy you see in the mirror? He's as much your puppet as much as you are his."

"HOW!? Is it not ENOUGH that you TORMENT me with the idea that ALL THIS IS NOT REAL!?"

"I thought about that... and I was wrong with that initial assessment. We're as real as that other you, and as imaginary as him too. All this dreaming and imagining.. it loops, so take comfort in that."

"And WHAT PROOF. WHAT PROOF DO YOU HAVE!? did you even CONVERSE with him like how I had with him whenever I'd "Dream?" "

"Yes, I had. I've also peered into other realities by that mirror. I've seen worlds that seem to have been... discarded... worlds that seem to have been borne by shared imagination. Worlds that once were your past long since erased. I've seen strange places from what you once were, wished away yet remembered to be nothing more than mere imagination for you and the other you."

"And... am I supposed to take your word for it? do you THINK. It will make me FEEL BETTER!?"

"I... well I hope it will. It.. took me some time to reason into those thoughts, and even longer to fully accept and believe it. I just hope in time you accept my new cosmology, just so that I can undo that terrible image of reality I planted in your head. I just hope that you'd forgive me for forcing that old truth into you."

"Well you couldn't have picked a better time..."

Had to get this idea out of my system. The woman that knows too much unleashing one bizarre truth to overwrite another. The idea of the scrying mirror is quickly becoming a mcguffin.
