It...

[ Hm, her body language changes a little, at that. She looks uncomfortable, and her words get more hesitant. ]

It switched out vision. We were still controlling ourselves, but looking out each other's eyes. The darkness made a wall to keep us apart, and then it had hands to reach out and cover our eyes, and the temperature got really hot, too.

[foodbin]

That sounds... awful. I'm sorry.

[But she continues after a moment, even if her voice grows more gentle.]

How did you get out?

[specialdog]

Mm.

[ Not very responsive to the sympathy, but oh well. Sorry she's kind of a dick. ]

Solving the puzzles seemed to drive out the corruption.

[foodbin]

And - I know Nana got the first aid kit, obviously. Did you get anything when you left?

[specialdog]

Mm-hmm. We got a talisman to make another partnership. That's why no one extra had to die this week.

[foodbin]

[She seems surprised, though whether it's by the item or how easy it was to get that information is unclear. After a moment, though, she smiles.]

...Thank you. We all owe you guys one.

[specialdog]

We got to be heroes!

Only, instead of anything fun, I had to reveal my powers to eeeeeveryone at the trial.

[foodbin]

But... you get why, right? We're all just trying to make sure we make the best decision we can.

[specialdog]

Sure. And now every single person here has more information that could be used to frame me, or make me an easy and predictable target.

[foodbin]

...It sucks. I get it.

[But her voice makes it clear enough she thinks it's a necessary evil.]

[specialdog]

You getting that it sucks it won't keep me safe.

[ Which she doesn't sound offended by at all? Just observational... ]

It's not, like, an embarrassing secret. It's dangerous.

[foodbin]

If you're asking me for help, I can try, but it's not like we can take it back now.

[specialdog]

Yeah, I know.

It would just be nice to feel like I have some leverage, you know? Since I gave mine away. [ But... ] But I get it if you don't have anything you can tell me.

[foodbin]

...Talk to Sol and Lune. They can give things out if you do a task for them. I don't know if you want something to protect yourself or more information, but - I think they could help, depending on what it is.

[specialdog]

Oh, that's smart. I'll keep that in mind... Thanks!

Have you gotten anything from them?

[foodbin]

[She nods, but—]

Nothing that isn't common knowledge, I don't think.
