I'm not sure. When I asked the Reapers about it a while ago, they said that erased meant erased, but...if it's because they're trying not to draw attention that could've been why they couldn't actually answer.
And that's why I wanted to see you in person. I wasn't sure I trusted sending this kind of stuff via network.
... It would also explain why Aika was so dismissive when I showed her the spam messages from Monday.
I wouldn't trust it either. If the higher ups learn about this, then the reapers could get in a lot of trouble and our friends would probably be erased for real.
Right. Plausible deniability. If they don't confirm that the messages are real or anything, then nobody can come after them. It makes sense to me.

The question then is what do we do about it? I don't want the reapers to get busted for this, and I'm not taking a chance at actually erasing our Erased. But we got these messages for a reason, so it's...stupid not to figure out a new idea.
I don't know if it's just teammates or if it can be any Player. But...I wondered that myself. If people rushed for the points in order to bring people back. It makes sense doesn't it?
I can't either. We've been told over and over again there's no other good way to earn a lot of points. But at the same time, I think I can't blame people for being mad about the people we're losing, too.
So far there hasn't been a way to break the cycle of the game either. I don't know if I have a lot of hope of finding one by now either, but...some people are still holding onto that.
The higher ups are... incredibly powerful. And they're used to getting what they want one way or another. I doubt that'll change anytime soon, so the cycle continues.
Well...let's put a pin in it for now and try to get through tomorrow first before we get too far in figuring out how to overthrow the higher ups or something.

she's frowning profusely at the one from last week, but.]
... Then, they're not completely gone? The erased might still be somewhere out there, just out of our reach?

[this is a new level of stressful. hoo, boy.]
The first message— is it only referring bringing teammates back? Is that why so many people died today?

If that's the case... then I can't really say I blame them for wanting to gather as many points as possible.

One step at a time. [ ... ] We can regroup later. After the weekend, see what happens and go from there.
