"... God... exists...""...Like a higher plane of the real world; A place where people can connect with each other."
-- (Snickers) That's something you've been told, right?"(Doesn't say anything for a while) ... (Nods lightly)""..."
-- Answer the question.
"..."
-- Answer.-- That isn't much of an answer."(She shakes her head without saying anything)"
-- So you just go straight home after school.
"..."-- You're not comfortable with meeting and talking to them in person?
"..."-- Are you in any clubs?-- What do you talk about?
"... Lots of stuff."
-- What sort of place do you talk at?
"The Wired.""(Long pause) ...Yeah"
-- What's your favorite subject?
"..."-- What's your name?
"... Lain."
-- Seventh grade? Eighth grade?
"Eighth."
-- Is school fun?-- Do you have any friends?
"... I do."
-- What sort of games do you play?
"We don't play."
-- So what do you do, then?"... (Nods)"
-- Why?
"... (Fairly-long pause) ....I mean... well..."
-- Well?"... (Thinks for a while) ...we talk."-- What kind of place do you think the Wired is?-- Don't you like talking about yourself?"... Who are you?""My father."
-- Do you like your father?-- What sort of NAVI do you use to access the Wired?"I... I'm me, but I'm not me... I'm not just me..."
-- Who told you that?-- Who?
"... God."
-- Which god?
"The god of the Wired."
-- There's a god in the Wired? You believe that?"... If I believe, he'll exist...""When I was in the 6th grade... My dad... Bought it for me..."
-- Do you like tinkering with machines like that?
"Yeah"
-- Do you dislike questions like these?
"..."-- Alright, that'll do. Being the God of The Wired means he governs this higher plane of the real world. So, in other words, he's the ruler of the entire universe? Isn't that nice.
