Of course! I'd love to visit all kinds of places with you!
[If Sebastian's looking around the hotel this week, he might hear a gasp coming from the dojo. And should he look inside, he'll see Estelle, looking to the armory entrance with fear.]
I, I thought I'd come here to practice, but...
[She points to the entrance wreathed in shadows. It's ominous.]

Right... That's probably a good idea. It feels like the shadows could just reach out and swallow up this room, too...
I wonder what's happening to this place...

It feels like this whole building is becoming less stable...
I wonder if it's going to get worse and worse as we approach the final day...

I wouldn't be surprised... though I kind of wonder if they're trying to block us from certain things? Like, I'd been wondering if there was any chance of finding staff uniforms or whatever in housekeeping, which... there probably wasn't... but now I can't even get in there!
And then I guess... weapon stuff in here maybe...

Maybe...
For a while now, I've worried that...
[She hesitates.]
... What if they can block us from reaching the lobby on the final day...?

[Estelle closes her eyes, and recites:]
"Any Player who is not alive and/or is unable to return to the Lobby of the Starlight Hotel to check out at the termination date of this contract will be considered to have failed to sufficiently fulfill the terms outlined, and their life and the life of their Hostage will be forfeit."
That's what it said... It leaves the possibility that there are conditions other than death that could make one "unable" to return to the lobby...

I'm sorry if that sounds bleak... I don't want to discourage you or anything. I just think we need to be prepared for the worst... because whatever happens, we have to overcome it somehow.
Yes... That's why I want to keep my sword skills sharp, too. In case we have to fight our way out...
Sebastian, do you have anything you can use to defend yourself if you had to?

Wow...
I guess that could be really useful... even if it's a really unique way to fight. Was that from an item you bought?

To be honest, I didn't really have anything other than my shield until just last week...

That pretty moon cane, you mean?
I've got that star eraser that'll let me redo one action too, so... if we stick together, we've probably got enough stuff between us to be okay?
[ it is taking all of his self control not to use that eraser each time he does something stupid and hates himself ]

Yes! [Nodding happily. She likes her cane.]
That's a really interesting item! I wonder what kind of applications it could have.

Wow, so it's like turning back time! That's really cool!
