Where am I...? It's so dark. I can't see a thing. I'll try conjuring a light... |
SFX |
*Groaning* |
|
Is that...moaning? Who's there? |
 Jamil? |
Curses... Curses... Why must it always be me?! |
Jamil? |
If only HE wasn't here... If only Kalim wasn't here... I could be better! Stronger! Free! |
Jamil? |
Look at me. I could do so much more... So much more with him gone! *sob* |
|
Is that...me? Wow, I look pathetic. |
Jamil? |
Pathetic? It's not my fault I wound up this way. It's because of my environment. Because of my parents. Because of Kalim! |
|
...True. If I hadn't been born into the Viper family, I would've led a very different life. |
Jamil? |
Yes, yes! You see? I knew I would understand me. |
|
"Everyone other than me is a simpleton. I'm different." I spent the longest time convinced that was so. But I'm the one who rushed in all reckless, and botched things, and blew up at everyone. Talk about embarrassing. |
Jamil? |
Oh, stop acting like you're all rational. He's the reason I'm trapped and suffocating in this cramped place. |
Jamil? |
You believe that too, deep down! Right?! If I stopped holding back, I'd show them all...! |
|
Is that all you know how to say? That narrow-mindedness of yours is what's really robbing you of your freedom. Don't you see? |
|
Still... I get it. This is me. |
Jamil? |
Heehee... HYAHAHAHAHA! |
Jamil? |
That's right! I am you, and you are me. |
| *Darkness consumes the Overblot* |
| What?! My form's billowing outward like smoke...Is that the Genie of the Lamp?! |
 |
You and I are fated to be trapped in a dark, cramped place, being constantly run ragged. All the while dreaming of someone setting us free... For our whole lives! |
|
The last thing I want is to entrust my wish to someone else. |
|
I'm through bemoaning my lot in life and feeling sorry for myself. And I'm through averting my eyes from my own desires and ambitions. I've got better things to do with my time than wallow in self-pity. |
|
Now make way! |
| *Jamil overblots* |
Battle!
