Voice: Do you want to hurt yourself too?
Voice: Do you want to feel like your heart is being scraped by a rasp?
Voice: If you do, don't ever look away.
Title: RUMORS Layer 08
Taro: Nobody knows whether God is in the Wired or not.
Taro: It doesn't make any difference to us whether God is in the Wired or not.
Taro: Lain, wait for a second. I'll just kill him.
Lain(w): What's so interesting about killing other players?
Taro: Nobody knows what's fun and why.
Lain: The doorplate said "Tachibana Labs".
Voice: Tachibana is a huge company.
Voice: They shouldn't do anything illegal. But I've heard a rumor.
Lain(w): Rumor?
Voice: Do you know how we communicate in the Wired?
Lain(w): Are you testing me? I believe you are talking about "IP".
Voice: Sorry. Yes. We aren't usually aware of the protocol.
Voice: But the current protocol, the 6th generation is already at its limit for data capacity.
Lain(w): The 7th protocol.
Voice: Yes. the 7th protocol. Many companies are designing their own infrastructure.
Voice: Because whoever rules the protocol rules the whole economy of the Wired.
Voice: I've heard that they were sabotaged persistently.
Voice: The one attacking them is...
Lain(w): Tachibana Labs.
Lain: Sister?
Mika: a... e...
Lain: Mom, Dad, I...
Lain: Someone asked me, "Are you really Iwakura Lain? Are your parents really your parents?"
Lain: It's strange. It's such a strange thing to say, right?
Father,Mother: ...
Girls: Good morning.
Lain: Alice...
Alice: Good morning.
Lain: ...What happened?
Alice: I don't believe it.
Lain: What?
Alice: Lain, you didn't do it, right?
Lain: What?
Reika: She's just pretending not to know.
Alice: Reika! Don't jump to conclusions!
Juri: Lain, that wasn't your doing?
Lain: What are you...?
Alice: Lain, in the Wired, did you...
Alice: No. It can't have been Lain. I believe in you.
Reika: Alice.
Alice: ...
Juri: Alice!
Man's mouth: That company is in danger. Avoid approving new bills.
Woman's mouth: Can you believe he has such vulgar tastes even though he's good-looking?
Man's mouth: There is a serious bug in Protocol 6. It will cause an enormous disaster in the Wired.
Woman's mouth: Every night, a small, child-sized person with a red and green striped shirt appears in her room.
Man's mouth: That idol singer ran over someone and ran away in her boyfriend's car when she was in high school.
Woman's mouth: It's true. I heard it first hand.
Man's mouth: That building is famous for having ghosts.
Man's mouth: When you look at the terminal at midnight, an internal email shows up even though nobody's there.
Woman's mouth: The Knights doesn't exist. It's just a joke by an American student.
Lain(w): Shut up! Why do you find these things interesting?
Deus: Do you not find them interesting?
Lain(w): Who is it?
Deus: Are you not looking for me?
Lain(w): So God decides to show up, huh?
Deus: How do you define God?
Deus: If you mean the creator of the world, that was not me.
Deus: If you mean the almighty of the world, that cannot be me.
Lain(w): Where are you?
Deus: If you mean the omnipresent existence in the world, yes, you may call me that.
Deus: I can only affect the world a little.
Lain(w): Who are you?
Deus: I am you.
Deus: I believe that you noticed that there is another "you" in the Wired.
Deus: You are just a hologram of it. You are only the flesh.
Lain(w): I...refuse to believe that. It can't be true.
Deus: Even you cannot believe that Lain in the real world is the same person as the Lain in the Wired you currently are.
Lain(w): But, I am myself...
MobileNavi: Lain is a peeper.
Lain: Alice? Alice, where are you?
MobileNavi: Don't mind the rumors! Don't mind them! from Alice.
Lain: Alice? Alice, where are you? Alice!
Lain: Alice? where are you? Alice?
Lain: What did I do in the Wired?
Lain: What is the "me" I don't know doing?
MobileNavi: Don't mind the rumors! Don't mind them! from Alice.
Text: Searching...
Teacher: Is it right to do this with your teacher?
Alice: No...
Teacher: If it isn't right...why are you doing this?
Alice: Because I want to...
Lain(evil): Hehehe...
Alice: ...
Lain(e): Do you know? Do you know who Mizuki Alice loves?
Lain(e): Do you know who Alice thinks about when she is playing with herself?
Alice: Were you the one who told everyone? Was the rumor about you true?
Lain(e): Hahaha...
Alice: Lain! Have you always been watching me like this?
Alice: What I kept secret, what I never wanted anyone to see, and what I...
Lain(e): Hahaha...
Alice: Tell me it's not true! Lain!
Alice: Lain... you...
Lain: Ahhh...
Lain(e): Hahaha...
Lain(w): Who are you? You can't be me. I don't do things like what you did.
Lain(e): I...
Lain(w): Stop it! Why do you act like the part of me which I hate?
Lain(e): Hahaha...
Lain(w): You!
Lain(e): I'm killing myself... Hahaha...
Lain(w): Why? Why is your body so warm? Why must I feel the heat of your body?
Lain(e): Because I am Lain.
Lain(w): No!
Lain: No!
Lain(e): Hahaha...
Lain(w): What are these things?
Deus: They're all you.
Deus: I told you that you have always existed in the Wired.
Lain(w): What?
Deus: You are the same as me. You are dispersed in the Wired.
Deus: Therefore, you were always by everyone's side no matter where they are.
Deus: You saw everything that everyone never wanted anyone to know.
Deus: You just released that information to the Wired.
Deus: You were right to do that. Information in the Wired should be free for everyone to know.
Lain(w): Everything you said must be a lie.
Deus: Why?
Lain(w): Alice said that she saw me in the Wired when I wasn't there.
Lain(w): As I recognize myself, my absolute ego is inside me.
Lain(w): Are you saying that these poorly made dupes are me? Nonsense!
Lain(w): And if you're right...
Deus: Then what, Lain?
Lain(w): I can delete their memory of being peeped on. I can delete the information.
Deus: Sure. Try it. You were born to be able to do it.
Text: Deleting...

Lain(e): I want to go to Cyberia tonight. Please.
Juri: I agree!
Reika: That's unusual of you.
Alice: OK. You can change clothes at my home again.
Lain(e): Great!
Lain(e): What should I wear?
Lain: Stop it! I am myself!
Alice,Juri,Reika,Lain(e): Hahaha...
Lain: I'm here!
Juri: Hurry!
Lain(e): Yes. Lain is Lain, and I am myself. Hehe...
Lain: Hello, Navi.
