... Not really. I was mostly just mad.

[dendroculi]

Even that can teach us something. How did the Reaper you spoke to react to your anger?

[adorabrawler]

Well... Maybe they got annoyed, I think, but it didn't seem to faze them any.

[dendroculi]

So they're not easily fazed or caught off-guard. Or, at least, the one you spoke to wasn't.

The first one I spoke to really didn't seem to want to be there at all, but he didn't back down when people started questioning him, either. So they're made of sterner stuff than it looks like at first.

[adorabrawler]

Oh, yeah, the guy who looked like a scared dog? Blegh.

[dendroculi]

I wonder what sorts of things they've seen while overseeing these Games to have made them that way.

[adorabrawler]

Depends on what these games are like, maybe.

[dendroculi]

Mhm. The second one I spoke to also mentioned she wasn't born a Reaper... so... there's a lot about this we still don't understand.

[can any of them become reapers?? is that an option if they don't win and get to go back home??]

[adorabrawler]

If they're not in charge, that could only mean they bit it at some point too, doesn't it?

[dendroculi]

Yes, I think so. But I'm not certain what to think of what else it implies.

[adorabrawler]

... Me neither. Whatever. There's gotta be a way we can all get out of here.

[dendroculi]

When I spoke with Ruby, she said that with enough points, someone who had been erased from the winning team could be brought back.

...I wonder if enough points could also be used to bring back people from the teams that didn't win.

[adorabrawler]

That means everyone's going to need a lot of points, isn't it?

[dendroculi]

Yes. The question is how many points it would take to do that, and how quickly we can accumulate points without resorting to Erasure.

[adorabrawler]

They're likely not going to be easy to get, either way...

[dendroculi]

No. But, at the very least we'll all be able to earn points from the assigned missions. And one of the Reapers I spoke with suggested there may be hidden missions we can find to earn extra.

We'll have to stay alert and be ready for anything.

[adorabrawler]

Constant vigilance and whatnot, huh? I'm already tired thinking about it.

[dendroculi]

It's a little exhausting to think about. But... if we manage to do this right, I think it will be very rewarding.

[adorabrawler]

Mm... yeah. Well, I'll still try to do what I can.

[dendroculi]

So will I. We can help each other keep an eye out for anything important.

[adorabrawler]

Then—I'll let you know if I find anything!

[dendroculi]

Thank you, Mizuki. I'll do the same.
