#be2

The cosmetic restoration of the Derail Valley Railway Museum's BE2 Microshunter is complete. DVRT doesn't own any original ASF Microshunter units anymore, having sold them off alongside most or all of the WE6s and WE2Ps when the electric railway infrastructure was abandoned in the 1990s. We considered attempting to fabricate a new body shell for the BE2, but the Museum Board decided to preserve the unique history of the BE2 as a weird one-off hybrid of an imported battery microshunter and DE2 spare parts.

I sincerely do not see it ending it a good way. I mentioned it in that other post extensively. But, when I say that it's a too little, too late ending, I seriously mean it. That ending is about realizing how much you care too late to fix it. I don't think there can be any hope because of the way that the ending is playing out in that circumstance.

In that ending, you are utterly broken by the means of torture that he was using to try to maintain his control. Your eyes go numb and your body goes slack. You don't say anything anymore, you don't do anything anymore, you just sit there do whatever he asked.

There's nothing left for you but a hollow shell of the person that you were before. What he's trying to do in that ending is try to get you to react again. He's quite literally trying to get you to have a response because he realized that what he actually wanted wasn't actually what he was saying.

He's trying to get you to do anything because he misses you. He realized too little, too late, that he did care about you. But he has a hard time showing that he does care.

And that ties back into were talked about in that other post, where he struggles to understand what he wants because he's supposed to be angry and he cannot feel anything else. He's not supposed to be anything but strong and angry.

Ray is allowed to feel pretty much everything because it's a quote on quote weakness. Saeran isn't allowed to feel that way and that's why he pretends to be raised so much. It's not about torturing you by being Ray. It's quite literally about him trying to use that mask to try and understand what he's feeling and what you're feeling.

It doesn't excuse why he did it, but there is a reason why he did it and it's because that was the only way he knew how to feel something without getting in trouble or feeling shame.

What he's doing in that Ending by trying to prompt you in a negative way, is not going to make you react in a good way. You've given up on everything and you're not fighting back anymore.

There is a desperation inside of you because you're trapped alone all the time and he's the only one who comes to see you. However, the rest of you has just given up on everything because as far as you can tell, it's just about torment.

So, I imagine that ending to be an endless cycle of him trying to get you to react again, and you not giving him that. You're hurting and he's hurting. 

Because if you're broken, then how is he supposed to have hope for himself? If even the purest heart can be broken and ripped into pieces, then is kindness and everything that you stood for even strong?

It turns into a moral crisis that just spins out of control.

I think the only way that is ending could change would be if it turned into the BRE. The one where Suit Saeran gets you out of Mint Eye and leaves you in the apartment, a broken apology on his lips that you may never remember. 

He makes sure that you're safe in that ending, and then he goes back to the place that he feels like he deserves to be. He returns to Magenta to face his punishment. He accepts that he is a monster in that he was never made for the outside world. He decides that you are worth saving but he's not worth saving.
