(cause i have dealt with a lot of people with grief, just know what to say)
She wrenches her head away from those trying to console her with a sob, instead walking towards not-Alex. Matilda reaches a hand out, throat too choked up to even manage a whimper. Screwing her eyes shut, she withdraws her arm with a snarl. Not-Alex wouldn’t understand…but the most she can die for Alex now is to listen. And she wouldn’t give that chance up.
“…Right…”
“I lived with my aunt for 2 years. Yes, I suppose my luck was that well off to turn to 15…I wasn’t doing so well, not at all, I was pale…sickly…It was clear I was going to die at any second. Any tick off the loud sounding grandfather clock could be the last one that chimes in my ears. It wasn’t…fair…It isn’t fair. It wasn’t ever fair. Not fair. Not fair. Notfair. Notfair notfair notfairnotfairnotfairnotfairnotfairnotfair!”
She corrects her composure.
"So…I decided to experiment with something not usually experimented with. Something that not many people have ever heard off…Nanotechnology. I had to keep it a secret. I would just introduce myself to regular people as…just me. The first thing I decided to work on, the thing I expected to be my last…was some sort of way to replace cells that you lost. Some sort of way to…upgrade things people lose from horrifying diseases…horrifying ways. A way to change the world! A way to help anyone who had to suffer with things I did…So I did the best thing I could think off, got the best person I could trust with my secret, got the best subject I could use…
…Myself, of course…"

alyx snaps out of their trance for a moment, noticing [trochi] grieving, motioning towards her, wanting to say something… but then Alex starts talking again, and their eyes widen, engulfed in the story
(if this was an actual DR game trochi’s character would probably survive to the end because of this which is upsetting)

N stared at Alex. Err… A thing that looked like Alex. But… it wasn’t her. Not even close. “This… this is cruel.” Tears started gathering, breaking his practiced composure. “Why?” He suddenly shot his head up, staring directly at Monoluna. “Why are you doing this?!”
Hanako continues to silently look at Alex’s face and starts crying.
I won’t forget you.
“As time ticked on, I worked effortlessly. It was a low risk, huge reward sort of thing…I replaced things I had lost from my illness…I replaced things that seemed…pointless to me, I did things like replace my cells, did things like replace any sort of shrivelling I had experienced. But I was always worried to try one thing and that thing was to experiment on my own brain…It scared me as you’d expect, but as I got better and time was running out…I did my final experiment. Or what I thought to be.”
“Using small nanobytes, small nanobots and other crazy technology I doubt you all would understand, I sent things through my ear and towards my brain. I hoped it would work, it was the last thing I could hope for…A thing to replace the lost causes in my brain, a thing that could possibly get rid of this horrid disease…Despite falling into a coma for a week, it worked. I was saved. I saved myself! I had figured out a way to cure such a thing! It was…miraculous! I was impressed! I was amazed, I-…I felt happiness.”
“But that’s when my obsession started…My obsession to…upgrading myself…I suppose you can call it my last chapter.”

(honestly i had guessed that trochi was going to die early and wazza was going to survive and be emo the entire game)
yeah i thought that would happen too but since wazza died trochi has to be the survivor
(we’re all talking as if we won’t policy yeet trochi in the first confusing case)
