visitants | WE ALL SEEK JUSTICE AND NOBODY IS OKAY

[Another murder, another investigation, another trial, another execution. Unlike last time, it wasn't self-defense, and although they caught him, she's pretty sure nobody is happy. It was sentencing someone to death, after all.

Knowing that, Dlanor writes something on the back of profiles she took from the bulletin board, passing them under the doors. When in a hurry, use what you have, and those profiles will be back sooner or later, anyway]

Please come to the train station. Let's spend some time in each other's company, for our sake

[If you decide to come, you'll find whoever wrote that note has been working hard to make things somewhat nice. There's a few...whatever we all have been using as cups all this time...filled with milk -- evaporated milk with some water, it seems. Tastes almost like normal milk. Dlanor also brought a few twigs and a small piece of log from the sawmull, and seems to be currently trying to make a fire. Some warmth should be nice, right?

Come on, everyone, let's sit around this bunch of wood and strengthten our bonds]

Okay... I'll be waiting then.

[She lets out an long breath like she's been holding it for a while, leaning against a tree.]

I'm sorry for getting so angry earlier. Both times. You know what I said... you know I meant it, right? That we're friends, I mean?

You don't have to apologize, it was a stressful situation for you.

[...]

And I believe you, but I don't know what I did to earn your friendship.

I dunno... guess you were just nice to me or something, asshole.

[She's trying not to smile. It doesn't feel like the right time to be smiling.]

And now you're stuck with shitty kid like me.

Nice, huh? Maybe I haven't been doing the best job at being a benevolent bystander then.

[It's a joke, he swears.]

But I suppose if I can't fight my fate if I'm stuck with you, it can't hurt to try out friendship now.

It's not like I made you or anything.

[Okay but now she is smiling.]

Yup. That's right. Too bad for you.

No, I suppose you didn't.

[He can't help but smile a little himself.]

I must say, you are the stubborn sort, aren't you?

I never claimed to be anything else.

[She runs her fingers through her hair. Ugh it feels so bad. And her roots are starting to show.]

I never did find you those cigarettes though. But now that we're being honest, I kinda wanted some for myself too.

Smoking's a bad habit to get into.

[He said, without an ounce if irony.]

I appreciate your efforts anyway, even if it's not a thing I have to worry about anymore.

Yeah... the thing is I did used to smoke. A lot. But my dad found out, and he got so angry with me. I didn't really get why at the time. I didn't think it was a big deal.

[She crosses her arms as she thinks about it.]

I think can kinda understand now, though.

It's highly toxic, and I never had to worry about it simply because it didn't actually affect me.

[He just did it for the #aesthetic.]

However, I won't stop you if you do find any cigarettes. I'm not your guardian, after all

I think my dad just wanted me to value my life a little more. Plus it was definitely illegal for me to be smoking at that age.

[It's still illegal for her now???]

You couldn't stop me you tried, Norman.

[Cheryl honey....]

Oh? Is that a challenge?

[She sticks her hand through his stomach, waving it back and forth.]

Try and stop me, Norman.

[Wow Cheryl. He floats away a little at that.]

You don't have to be so rude about it, Cheryl.

[Despite that, he's smiling.]

If I'm not the one who puts you in your place then who will?

[Also smiling.]

To think, I've been alive for thousands of years, and I've been taken down by a mere mortal adolescent.

Don't forget you befriended the girl who was to born a god and self aborted it.

[Amazing. Don't be too impressed.]

Thousands of years though, huh? How many cigarettes is that?

More than I can count. If I existed on the mortal plane, I would have single-handedly supported the entire tobacco industry

What exactly have you been doing for thousands of years? What does someone do with all that time?

I thought I told you before if my Narrator status.

Well yeah but.... is that it? Really?

That is it. I fine that observing people's lives was more than enough to entertain me for my entire life.

Man... thousands of years of that though...

[Hmmm.]

Maybe this won't be a big change for you then.

... I have to admit, it's much nicer to not have to worry about eating or socializing.

[He says, while socializing with someone.]

Are you sure your title shouldn't be "The Loner?" I'd be so depressed if I couldn't have Happy Burger anymore.
