[ oh my fucking god

what does he even do with this. ]

Hey. Move.

[swordflash]

[ you monster, why is that a question?

zenitsu lifts his head and promptly steps aside, sniffling. ]

Sorry.

[soba]

... you chose a bad spot for this.

[ zenitsu................. ]

[swordflash]

I can't help it . . . Nikki just died.

[ and this was the location of her victim's death. it's too much. ]

[soba]

[ ugh ]

Come on. Somewhere else.

[swordflash]

[ he sniffles again, then nods and . . . cuts in front of toi to walk slowly up the stairs. toi said somewhere else, so he's going back to his assigned room. ]

[soba]

[ this is

the most pathetic walk upstairs he has ever seen ]

[swordflash]

[ traffic law demands that toi follow the speed set by the surrounding vehicles. zenitsu takes his time, but about halfway up he turns around to look at toi. ]

H-hey, about those checks yesterday . . . thanks for doing them.

[ it helped catch the culprit, in a way. ]

[soba]

[ the people here are so weirdly polite and it creeps toi out. ]

Well...

[swordflash]

[ zenitsu watches with a curious downturn of his lips. well? ]

[soba]

[ i actually hit post comment too early and didn't realize but anyway

he scratches the back of his head ]

People are going to have to get used to doing that kind of thing, if this really is going to be a weekly deal.

[swordflash]

[ francy no

at the reminder, he looks appropriately disturbed. ]

Mr. Thymos and the others were saying they'd find a way to stop this from happening again, though.

[ it's a weak rebuttal, but he wants to cling to that hope. ]

[soba]

You need to be prepared in case that doesn't happen though. He doesn't even have any clue where to start.

[ toi doesn't know this but also galo himself kept saying over and over he does not make any plans ]

[swordflash]

[ plans are for thinkers. galo is not a thinker. let galo be galo. ]

What do you think I should do?

[soba]

I don't think you should give up on the idea of escaping, since that should still be our main priority.

[ consider toi is constantly trying to leave. the forest was such a disappointment. ]

But you need to be prepared that it might not be as quickly as we'd like, and there's a possibility that what happened last weekend might happen again. So stay alert and try to find out as much as you can.

[swordflash]

[ he nods slowly. he would sincerely like to leave this place. ]

But the girls won't tell us anything, and the Master still hasn't greeted us. What am I supposed to find out?

[soba]

You know there is a way to apparently get him to talk to you? But each of us can only summon him once, and you shouldn't only do it when you're pretty confident he'll come.

[swordflash]

Is that what the bell is for? I haven't touched it, because it looks so fragile. Has anyone met him? Does he know what's going on here?

[soba]

I don't know if anyone has tried it. I haven't, since I have no idea if he'd answer me or not yet.

[swordflash]

If he did, what would you ask him?

[soba]

Well, I'm assuming that attacking him won't do much, considering all the attempts people have made on the girls have failed.

[ if you can't punch the workers then you probably can't punch their boss ]

[swordflash]

[ don't go attacking girls in the first place! ]

Can we just ask him to let us leave?

[soba]

... I guess?

[ his tone says he does not think that will work

but there is nothing stopping them from asking that so sure ]

[swordflash]

[ where's the optimism? he deflates momentarily. ]

Then what about you? Attacking isn't a question, you know.

[soba]

I can do things other than attack.

[ even if that

would be his first option, admittedly ]
