[A frown. His hand twitches, like he wants to reach out, but he curls his fingers into his palm and rests it on the bar instead.]
Alright. So we'll need to figure out how to put it to sleep for a while, most likely. [He'll just add that to their list of things to figure out, then. No biggie. It's not like they're trying to cheat death or anything.
...]
...Is this place affecting you? Or is it something else?
This place. [he sounds tired.] Can't be here for long, it drains me.
[he's not leaving, though.] Keep your mind open to all possibilities. [he glances up at childe.] Do not get stuck on one solution. That's how you all ended up thinking Kaan was a candy bar for four hours. Be open.
Let me know when you need to go. [Firmly. He's not going to baby Royce, but it won't do them any good if he collapses here.
He laughs quietly at that, though.] Trust me, if there's anything I'm good at, it's breaking out of the box.
[He took no part in the candy bar discussion because he doesn't care about Kaz... alas.]
I'll tell the others to stay open-minded, too. I have a feeling we'll have to rely on the living more than I'd care to, for this part, but hopefully they'll remember we're listening.
[And then Aoi gets booped back over so that's a thing]
Iris would be losing her mind... Childe just looks surprised for a second, then smiles. It is endgame week and there's still time to talk shit. Terrible.]
...By the way, do you know anything about that room downstairs? With those maps and that broken machine.

Well. You have a few people who won't let your souls go.
no subject
Yes, but not all of them are smart.
[ICE COLD]

also, that makes him laugh? it's a quiet, huffy sound, but it's a laugh!]
