I'm sure the young girls would love this store, too.

[ They are not the demographic—well. Maybe not Jacopo. Totty can have a bejeweled trampstamp whenever he wants. ]

I see. [ ... ] You're in trouble.

Yyyyyyep. Guess I'm sleeping locked in the tunnel for the foreseeable future.

She can't get in without someone letting her in, but... Can't guarantee that.

The competition may distract her enough and no one came after you since you've confessed.

Okay, well, if anyone lets her in they're dead to me, because this dumb competition is absolutely not going to distract her. Everyone else has been able to let it go because they're not her.

Like— I know she's kind of entitled to it, and I'd let her punch me if I could trust it would stop there, but. It would not.

She seemed distracted enough strangling Ace, so I thought perhaps more bait.

[ But maybe Yoru knows only fury forever. Women(?) are scary. ]

As right as it may be, I would like it if you don't get stabbed multiple times. Our number the past trial was concerning when juggling the three cases... And it wouldn't do us well if we lost someone even after gaining three people back. [ ... ] I can't say that I'd like Yoru to be here, honestly. I would have preferred someone else.

[ i was about to say yoru in particular is scary but then remembered what a fucking nightmare his canon love interest is (ilu totoko) so actually yeah. women are scary.

anyway the vibes improve slightly with that because it's always nice to know someone doesn't want you to get stabbed multiple times and because he sure would have preferred other people too!! ]

Yeah, I'm— how did she even end up here? Maya-chan I could see someone using that revival incentive on, especially since she showed up in the place where she died, but where did Yoru and Anders come from?

[ HE LIKES ANDERS BUT STILL ]

While sometimes she's proactive in trial, she also refuses to comply.

[ Which is a struggle... There's some sharp annoyance about that, but it settles. ]

I wonder if the graveyard shift hosts would know? They were on the other side until now, but if they don't then whatever machinations may be left a secret until the end.

It seemed like they were surprised that it happened too from what I was overhearing, but I guess they could at least have some ideas of what would make it possible.

Then I'm at a loss... People don't usually come back, do they? I haven't heard anyone mention a revival yet.

Not unless there's one of those special items used, as far as I know.

[ no one has any reason to suspect the insane uturns car wash lore ]

[ i know.... they are all staring at the uturns thing being like "does anyone know anything about this?" and the answer is NO. ]

Whatever. Beggars can't be choosers. Anders may shout a lot about justice sometimes and Maya's a good choice. [ Pondering now, ] We have to keep thinking of achievements, but we're bound to be close.
