Dimitri confirmed it, anyways, and he seems... Less likely to make up weird stuff like that. I mean, unless he was drastically different when he was younger. So.
Though it's also kind of a bummer to know he went through a death game at that age. Him and Flayn both... There should be an age limit to these things.
[he pauses, deciding the best way to phrase this.]
It's not like I can judge anyone for being worried about whoever they took. I mean, I'm really worried about the person they have. But I just hope everyone doesn't let that make them forget that we're going to need to work together to make it out of here.
Me too. I don't know, I... If your guess is right and we do get threatened the way you're thinking, I'd probably be pretty frustrated at anyone who went for it. But it feels more important to remember exactly who's behind all of this. They're the real problem.
No, neither would I. And we don't even know if they really have them at all... Based on the statues in the garden, they're definitely capable of making some pretty accurate looking copies.
[he frowns.]
Speaking of which - have you heard about what happened to Shinobu and Estelle?
No. But... We at least know they're capable of some kind of illusions here.
[which will become even more apparent with the rooms that open tomorrow, but.]
She said that it didn't seem like the rest of us could see the apparitions, but her and Estelle could, even though we were looking at the same space. So, one of us must have been seeing something fake.
It reminds me of the locations where murders are committed. As if something is being preserved? And only select people can see it for a certain amount of time.

I didn't hear that part.

[...]
I'm pretty sure he wasn't messing with me when he said that.
no subject
He did pretend to faint within five minutes of us meeting, so I'd believe that it's all a lie too.
But it also wouldn't be the first evil noodle I heard mentioned.

Is it weird seeing him? For you.
no subject
[he pauses, then shrugs.]
It's not really that he seems happier, but he seems - less angry, I guess. It's nice. You know what I mean?

[says the eighteen year old. it's joking, at least a little.]
Seriously, though... It's really awful to know that different versions of him have gone through this separate times.
no subject
[ He rubs his face. ]
I'm worried what the presence of hostages is going to do to our sense of logic.

Kill one person to prevent another tragedy.

[which he hates! but hopefully they'll both be wrong. either way, after a second:]
What would you do, if that were the case?
no subject
[ A... bad joke! ]
But really... it's hard to say. I don't want to lose anyone. Could you answer?
no subject
[he doesn't sound too angry about it, though. after a moment:]
I don't know. I - want to think I would say no. I definitely don't want to hurt anyone again.
no subject
Yeah. We could say no, hope we end up in another one of these with a wish at the end to bring back the person we lost.
But that's not an easy choice to make.
no subject
Kind of seems too good to be true to get that offer twice in a row, right? But... I hope that's the case.

I wouldn't count on someone using hostages as leverage to be truthful.

About the elevator? Yeah, I ran into Shinobu.

And the numbness. Any of it make sense to you?
