I'll help in any way I can too. Lucretia's done a lot of us all.

[feytality]

Yeah... she's really an incredible person.

Thank you, Claude.

[shaft]

Don't mention it.

[ Plops against her side. ]

[feytality]

[ leaning against him too.... she's tired ]

How are things in Summer? It must be hard...

[ losing otome ]

[shaft]

They're difficult. It's not just losing dormmates, but I think they feel as though they're failing Annie.

She doesn't hide her hurt as well as Hugo does.

[feytality]

... Yeah.

[ poor annie... she wears her heart on her sleeve, and she's so kind... summer has terrible luck ]

Well, at least they have you.

[shaft]

[ He crosses his arms. ]

The other dorms are too loyal... Isn't there anyone we could steal?

[feytality]

Probably not. But, um, maybe Spring and Summer could join forces somehow?

[shaft]

Join forces?

[ Wait a second. ]

That's... brilliant? Why do we need to presume that war is our only option? We should consider succeeding by building alliances.

[feytality]

Right! I mean, I have no idea if it's going to affect points or anything, but we were talking about getting some sort of secret passage between Spring and Summer.

By our powers combined, we are... Captain Sprummer.

[ captain sprummer hes our hero gonna take fall down to zero.... ]

[shaft]

Captain Sprummer, that's not bad. [ He laughs. ] Do you want to win the dorm wars, Maya?

[feytality]

... I don't really care about winning or anything. And even if I did, I don't think Spring would ever win.

[ wow.. ]

Do you want to win?

[shaft]

[ WELL she's not wrong ]

Not really. Taking care of my own dimension sounds like too much work.

[feytality]

[ rip in spring.. ]

You've already got lots of work to do, huh?

I mean, I don't even know what I'd do with my own dimension...

[shaft]

Some people crave power and influence...

I just want to relax, you know? I told Ichinose the only dimension I'd want is a beach getaway dimension.

[feytality]

[ maya laughs a little, fondly ]

Claude, do you even know how to really relax? You act laid back, but you're always working so hard.

[shaft]

[ He thinks about this for a moment. ]

It's my dream. To have an peaceful night of sleep.

[feytality]

You say that, but your bed is full of books and mushrooms....

[ who has a peaceful night's sleep with books and mushrooms?? ]

[shaft]

... I'll get a bigger bed!

[feytality]

Well, that's not really my point....

[ her point is that she is not fooled by your shenanigans, claude ]

But I do hope that you get a chance to really rest and relax. You have so much on your plate.

[shaft]

You too, Maya. It's not easy to wear the mantle of leadership at your age.

I don't think I would've wanted to be responsible for anything when I was 18.

[feytality]

I'm not the Master, yet....

[ and she's kind of been avoiding her responsibilities, anyway. she's been scared to go back home ]

[ is she even going home after all this? ]

And I have Nick, who I can.... just kind of be myself, around. Do you have anyone like that?

[shaft]

That guy, huh? [ He thinks about her question. ] My wyvern, I guess.

[feytality]

[ wow claude is even sadder than she is ]

... Just her? No one else?

[ no people?? ]

[shaft]

There were people who I trusted with my life, but...

[ He wonders how to explain. ]

They all depended on me. As a leader, I had to behave a certain way to keep their morale up.
