WEEK 3

WEEK 3

[It has begun. With the death of the Spinner and the execution of the Indulgent, they remaining Titled will be plagued once more by vivid dreams. And just as last week, they are awoken by the sounds of doors creaking open.

Just like last week. But no one had died last week. Right? No one had been subjected to that...thing.

And yet the strange, cold feeling of foreboding remains. And it is certainly most worrisome to those living in rooms 3, 4, 6, and 15. Those who pass by room 7 and 8 will feel that same, worrisome feeling of foreboding as well.

What will they wake up to find? Who knows, now. If dragons are real, anything is possible.

There are thirteen strangers in this place.]

Essentially they wanted equality and didn't think the ones who weren't like them should be leading them as it made them feel even more inferior.

[ Just a guess but that had to be it, right? Though the last part of Rubedo said had him exhaling a small sigh, shaking his head afterward. ]

...You have the strength to protect others now, don't you? If you keep dwelling on the past then you won't be able to see there's others here now you could be protecting. If you want help with that, i'd even be willing to try and help you so noone else has to die, okay?

[At first, he looks at Killua like he's saying something completely alien. Then his mouth quirks up into a tentative smile and he sits up a bit straighter.]

R-really? You mean it?

[lightnen]

[ Being as he spoke his mind easily and without fail, it didn't entirely feel like he'd been too out of place to say what he had. Besides. It felt natural when he considered why he'd made that offer to start with.

Not that he expected that immediate reaction, however. ]

Yeah, I do. Why wouldn't I?

[ A pause and then he adds something on afterward ]

I mean... you're my friend so why wouldn't I offer to help you?

[carries_war]

Well...aside from Albedo and Nigredo, nobody's ever tried to help me before I got here. And even they always counted on me, so it wouldn't have been right for me to lean on them...

[lightnen]

It's different now! You can lean on me and I'll help you with this because that's what friends do.

[carries_war]

R-right! And if you ever need anything, you've got me too!
