[Looking down at whatever this mysterious something is, and then up at him. Please reveal your secrets, napkin.]
... Oh, I get it! [Her two braincells have successfully made contact. She has understood The Joke.] Hello, ah... "Kasumi." I'm doing well. How are you?

[It's . . . a cinnamon roll! Wow. It wasn't actually a bad surprise.]
I mean, fine, technically, if you discount all the bullshit happening at warp speed around us. I suppose being Kasumi is working out for me alright, though I might trade it again later. We'll see.

[... Time to save this for cheat day! Her expression twitches a little when he suggests giving the "Kasumi" keychain away, but. What can you do.]
Well... At least things are peaceful? [A beat.] ... Though, honestly, it would be nicer if we could go somewhere else. There isn't a lot for us to do while we wait, is there?

[He . . . does actually notice that, tilting his head a little.]
Or I'll hold onto it. Seems valuable.
[Giving a 'ch'yeah' when she says that this place is pretty small though.]
I know! At least provide a few TVs or something. The only entertainment is stealing, which is fun, but loses appeal, uh, pretty quick.

[Taako... Your hidden heart of gold...]
I don't know if I would call it stealing when there's no money...
[Everyone who left an IOU is so pure, though.]
Should we ask the leaders if they can provide more channels for us? Or DVDs? I noticed there was a TV in my room, but the selection is a little, ah— How do I put this? [Terrible.] Lacking?

Nerverwinter?
[The heckie is that.]
It may cater to someone's tastes. You can never be too certain.
[It's just that, yeah. Whoever that person is? Their tastes suck.]

[That is a very good question. Why did we app so many teens? Anyway, she's chilling in the dining hall with something small sitting on her lap. Looking up once he approaches her, she sounds significantly more downtrodden than usual — nevermind the fact that she's pretty pale still.]
... Hello. [She can't even joke about the Kasumi thing right now.] Did you receive the notification as well?

[It's more he. He hasn't asked what she really wants to be called yet. So it's Greg or nothing.]
Yep. Like, it's crazy they're being so chill about someone dying right? I mean, sure you can forgive a little kidnapping whoopsie, but once this shit starts happening you should probably show up and explain some crap.

[That's so valid. Please, use your big elf words and ask, Taako. She nods, though.]
... I'm aware tone doesn't transfer over text, but... It would have felt more comforting if one of them met with us while the others looked into it. [A single leader. Just one. With a sigh, she adds:] Furthermore, what was with that song?
[She can forgive a little callousness, but what the fuck was with that song? Gross.]

The song? I'd take it as a sign that the big bad of this bonus adventure is severely messed up. Like, totally banana bonkers. Full-on crazy-town. Nobody prepares a creepy song for their death dungeon plot unless they're really up to some shit.
Last time I ran across creepy children's songs, it was ghosts, so.

Ghosts?
[Taako, the fuck is your life.]
Do you think, whatever it is that's scattering the nova— Could it be responsible for the song?

Ghosts. And the Grim Reaper got real mad at us, but then he got over it because he thinks I'm super cute.
[That doesn't explain anything.]
Be pretty wild if the source of the fuckery was two different things, right? I'd put money on all this being, uh, the same Problem, yeah.

[Well. That sure happened! She's a little puffy eyed when she enters the kitchen, stopping once she catches sight of him.]
... Taako-san. [A pause.] How are you feeling?
[The fuck were those last 30 minutes.]

[Oh boy there are so many crying children today. Oh boy. What do you even say. He is not good at these. He stops shuffling around the pots and pans for a second, awkwardly tapping at his chin before he just barrels away from any potential feelings talking.]
Um, what's your favorite food?
Um, what's your favorite food?
H-Huh?
[Blinking rapidly, taken by surprise. That's not an answer to her question. Also, hdu make me come up with a favorite food.]
Ice cream, but...

Oh! Then, like Tokyo.
[She will never learn how to shittalk................. Unless she's shittalking herself. It's fine.]

The Reaper, too...? It sounds like you've had an, ah, exciting life, Taako-san.
[It's fine. Sometimes, you just gotta nod and accept you understand nothing.]
I hope we're right about that.
[It's fine. Sometimes, you just gotta nod and accept you understand nothing.]

[oh my god
She lifts both of her hands up, waving them frantically.]
What? [AHHHH.] Taako-san, wait! You don't have to do anything!
She lifts both of her hands up, waving them frantically.]
What? [AHHHH.] Taako-san, wait! You don't have to do anything!
B-But... But...!
[Oh, god. He's not stopping, is he? Oh, no. TAAKO, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE MEAN.]
You really don't have to go through all this effort!
[Screaming on the inside, even as she automatically starts moving to help.]
