[Day 12, day and not night]

[very_good_end]

[Eventually Erika would separate the salt from the sesame seeds and go on to meet with Futayo in her room.]

So... we have plans tonight.

[She took a close look at her, to make sure she wasn't inebriated.]

Comments

[cluelesscavewoman]

[She isn't. But everyone keeps saying she's strange so it might be hard to tell? She's stood straight holding her spear, everything is normal.]

Judge. Ichigo-dono made me promise to stay away from the room he and Akira-dono went through.
He also said the threat was beyond the door so the surrounding area should be safe.

If it is not, then I cannot guarantee that it will be safe. From Ichigo-dono's description it the threat is a machine that resembles a god of war. Without Tonbonkiri it would be a difficult fight.

Is there any where else you wish to go?

[She tilts her head to stare. She doesn't really have a strong opinion about what to do.]

[very_good_end]

[That was enough to satisfy her, at least.]

That's probably for the best. At least for now.

I was... occupied... and didn't get a good picture of what new areas were opened up.

Did you?

[cluelesscavewoman]

Jud, there is a large room filled with unreachable fish... It isn't really a room. It's a hallway, but the walls and ceilings are glass.

[She vaguely waves her hand to show the shape.]

There is also a strangely coloured room by the gym.

[very_good_end]

Strangely colored? I'm not sure what to make of that, but that sounds perhaps a bit more satisfying than an aquarium.

You can spear-hunt during the day.

[cluelesscavewoman]

Some of the areas there are small. I nearly got stuck in one section. Erika-dono should check there...

I cannot. We are beneath the water.

...I let Dazai-dono have some of the alcohol I got from downstairs. I said I will not open the gate for him because he is not a friend.

[very_good_end]

[laughs]

So he got to you, did he? Good decision. He would likely just hoard it... or perhaps give himself alcohol poisoning.

How did he react when you told him that?

[cluelesscavewoman]

He was trying to break the gate.

When I told him he wanted to know why I would not unlock for it. I told him he could have some what we had gotten the other night.

He then said a lot of strange things...[Flattery and flirting will get you absolutely nothing.]

But he did not respond when I told him that you were the only other person to take some. [She tried]

[very_good_end]

He must not be that desperate, yet.

That is fine... for now. If I make myself appear desperate for the item I'd ask for in trade, he would simply consider himself as holding the 'stronger cards,' so to speak.

[cluelesscavewoman]

I will not give him more...

... Is that why you were acting strangely earlier? Akira-dono says that they are trying a different tactic to scare people.

[very_good_end]

...Partially. [sighs]

It doesn't concern you. I am simply... disappointed... that there is no murder to investigate.

It's a waste of my talents. Without a mystery to concentrate on, my little grey cells are getting most anxious. Therefore, a little... distraction.

[cluelesscavewoman]

Judge.

There are many oddities here. Maybe we can investigate something else?

I am able to distract myself by training. Because my brain is not useful. But I do not think that would help you.
