[that's all right. it's just polite not to mention it. she seems to be ignoring it.]

No? Why not? We're the only ones with a bathroom.

[I've realized I misread the locations and was picturing 4 people to a room so he's less against staying here than I thought. Still--]

Too many people. [Just, in general. Also, glaring at the plaque again--] And I'm not going to die here.

[It feels like a memorial plaque, which annoys him]

[undread]

I understand.

[too many people is a mood, as is i'm not going to die here.]

I'm not going to die here, either.

[He doesn't respond right away, thinking. After a moment--]

Did they say how long it's supposed to be? [Until the ritual]

[undread]

The rules say a few weeks. So we have time to make plans.

[sixillusions]

[Hmmm.]

Seems like a long time...

[It's really not, he's just not used to this kind of thing]

[undread]

It will pass in the blink of an eye. Before you know it, we'll have run out of time to stall and we'll have to face them.

[sixillusions]

Hmph. That's fine.

[Local man believes subterfuge will fail, wants to hurry up and get the inevitable boss battle over with]

[undread]

You're confident. That's good.

[she smiles at that.]

I hope you're a brawler, though. With all of the disruption of magic, I feel unprepared.

[sixillusions]

[Ugh... he makes a face. A different one from the one he was just making. You can fit SO many grouchy expressions into this bad boy.]

It'll be a pain without my Innocence...

[But he thinks he'd still win, apparently? Okay]

[undread]

I don't know what an innocence is. But perhaps you could supplement it with another power. You could find your partner.

[sixillusions]

No.

[IMMEDIATELY]

[undread]

[lol. she smiles.]

It doesn't seem appealing to have your fate tied to another, does it.

[sixillusions]

[He glances away, staring at seemingly nothing for a minute.]

It's not worth it. I don't need their monsters.

[undread]

That's likely a more difficult approach, but I respect it.

[sixillusions]

It would be difficult either way, so it's fine.

[He really comes off as so confident, and he definitely is in a lot of ways--but also, sometimes you simply have no choice but to fight against things way stronger than you.]

[undread]

[yes, understandable.]

How bold. I hope you're right.
