[stillnot]

But hey. Makes it a low bar for you to be an improvement.

[shaft]

[ he thinks about it ]

That's true. [ Anyway, ] How would you say today faired against the previous trials you've been in?

[stillnot]

We had a guy attack someone during a trial our first week too. Except he actually killed them.

So, better.

[shaft]

... Nobody stopped him?

[stillnot]

We didn't have time.

[shaft]

I meant the hosts... they have some special powers, don't they?

[stillnot]

The hosts?

[ clementine thinks about their npcs getting kidnapped and being generally pretty useless ]

[shaft]

[ Claude, belatedly realizing that the dorm heads didn't have any powers either. ]

Like the hotel staff. They have teleportation and stuff.

[stillnot]

I'm not expecting a lot from them.

[shaft]

Me neither. But at least they saved Mikazuki.

[ ... sort of ]

[stillnot]

I feel like they could have done more.

[shaft]

... I suppose.

I don't know how invested they are in us.

[stillnot]

Probably not at all. They're just here to do whatever this place needs.

[shaft]

You haven't spoken to any of them?

[stillnot]

I talked to one of them for a little. On the typewriter.

[shaft]

What's your impression?

[stillnot]

They seemed like an idiot.

[ she does not sound bothered by this, though? ]

[shaft]

... Which one was it?

[stillnot]

Aquila.

[shaft]

I see.

... There's quite a few of them.

[stillnot]

Which ones have you talked to?

[shaft]

Just Virgo, and the two at trial.

Virgo seems like a bit of a brat.

[stillnot]

I'm trying not to hold it against them. They're just doing their job.

[ she doesn't sound like she's trying very hard. ]

[shaft]

What is their job anyway? Who's here other than us?

[stillnot]

Dunno. It's not like they can make the guests happy when we don't want to be here to begin with.
