[The last thing Katsuki is used to is being uncertain - about himself, about anything he does, about the world around him and how it works. But this whole reset thing turned everything on its head. Sure, Izuku had explained about it probably being a simulation and all, but it was tough to quantify and really believe until he experienced the reset. Fought to make sure the reset happened, even though he didn't really know what that meant. So he has a few questions.]
if this is a simulation, what does that mean? for the people back home, I mean.
what does it mean for us?
["Is anything we do here real?" hangs in the air unspoken. That just feels a little too vulnerable to say out loud. All of this is a little too vulnerable, but he asks anyway. It's been weighing on him.]

We exist, the world attempts to rehabilitate us, it fails and we become dust. Or perhaps I should say we become "data". Part of the simulation for the next Chosen.
Of course nothing here matters!
Ha! Oh, the tragedy of it.

it's not a problem I'm going to have
[The rest of that...? It's too much to process right now.]
no subject
But my point isn't your failure, it's the AI's failure. Its failure to rehabilitate each and every one of its precious Chosen.
[A scoff.]
....Though, yes, I very much doubt it shall succeed in rehabilitating me. That is a me problem.
...Nevertheless, I look forward to seeing it make a valiant attempt!

what? you don't want to get better? be a better person?

I'm clever enough to recognize this, that's all.

'Tis insider trading! That is my crime!
I am an irredeemable wretch!

I get it, you're not telling. seems pretty pointless to me trying to hide it.

Has my thespian expertise failed me so badly?

I was the owner of a lucrative merchant guild in Ul'dah. When I learned from a friend that an uprising was on the wind I sold our guild's fisheries to the Monetarists in exchange for a few blacksmiths. I made good coin from that agreement! The Monetarists were crippled when the war came and rebels shut down the city docks.
What a shame, eh?
[Every detail of this story is false. U'dah doesn't even have docks.]
Between you and me, I think I did them a favor. Everyone needs to learn some humility every now and then!
docks in ul'dah /laughs in canon familiar
all of that sounds boring as hell.
no subject
It is terribly boring!
Never allow yourself to become involved in finances. You will meet only the dullest people imaginable.
Now, what about you, hmm?
What is your crime?

[There's a pause before the next text back. A hesitation before he decides to own it.]
I bullied someone, and it was bad. real bad
