Hmm.... Is it worth sending more than one set of us to check out the same rooms? We tried to avoid it before - but now I think we should probably keep going back to look?
[a tilt of his head]
Did you know that we'd be coming before you agreed to be here then? [his brow furrows, trying to understand the timeline]
Well, sometimes I have to look over my scrolls more than once to make sure I don't miss anything, you know! I don't think it'll help going over them over and over, but...
[a small shrug.]
Not immediately really. But we knew pretty soon! We didn't know anything about you, though, until right before you were set to get here!
Got it... Okay - we can go at least a few times to each room, especially since Takeru's the only one around here who knows anything about hacking, I think.
[will we badend without him? probably]
Huh.... Okay. I just keep - getting confused, I guess. I understand wanting to help other people but... seems pretty wild to me, to sit through all of us killing each other just because you want to help.
[aw - well sloth being touched manages to make mineo smile more too. cute.....]
.... you greet people when they've died, right? I don't know if I'd go so far as to say that you're evil... but I get pretty nervous thinking about where my soul might go too, if I don't do well here.
Yep! I welcome them into the House! Aww, come on, Mineo! There's an afterlife everywhere probably, even where you're from. Someone has to take care of all those mortal souls!
It's really not that scary! [isn't it??] Um, unless you're in Tartarus, I guess. But you only go there if you're really bad.
Oh. Yeah! The House of Hades! We receive Shades, the souls of the dead, and send them to three different places! Well, the master does, he has the final say. I just do all the introductory paperwork.

[just floating the idea out. but his expression softens at that]
You really left your home and everything just for us? But weren't the Avatars here a lot longer before we showed up?

[about the rooms, he means.]
Yep! We had to get ready for you guys to get here.

You're really nice, huh?

[he sounds hecking touched even though mineo didn't exactly come right out and commend him.]
I'm just doing my job! Like back home! Even though not a lot of people like us there--they all assume we're evil, or we're a bad place!

I'm not sure if my world even has an afterlife.

Uh-huh.... Well, I don't know if I'm really bad....
But what's the House like? Was that the place I saw in your memories?

[when people don't all call them shades, weird.]
Oh, the souls of the dead. Yeah, Lord Hades is the master of the House. He's my boss!
