Okay, well, at least it's a little less sad. [ because she at least asked him to. but like. only a little? ] But I'm pretty sure she was messing with you.
... probably. But - it's okay. I think we've got it figured out now. I'm not surprised the hole started out deep, but I think I hit ground level again.
Er... but if she complains to you again, let me know. I'll try to fix it.
Just 'cause she's been in a situation like this too. Getting kidnapped, being promised something, possible danger...
It sounded a little bit like how you weren't super thrown off by all this? Sorry if it was meant to be a secret or anything - you told me pretty quick so...
No, you were right. We do have similar backgrounds. It was pretty interesting. [ she tilts her head a bit ] But I wasn't kidnapped, I boarded the train willingly. Sort of like this place.
[ as in, she agreed and had no idea what she was agreeing too, which is fine, ]

I mean, I'm probably not gonna call her that all the time... but it makes her happy?

I don't want either to happen - but if they did, I'd jump in to help you no matter what!

[and once again he seems serious]
A man doesn't go back on his word - and I'd handle both. ... the tiger might be hard but I'd figure it out.
[don't just mumble that]
no subject
If there actually was a tiger, I'd help you out. It's a lot easier two against one.
[ why does she sound like she knows from personal experience, ]
no subject
[a beat]
Wait, how do you know?! Have you beaten up a tiger before?!

They're ... beings that are from the train. Some are more dangerous than others.
no subject
Can I ask a little more about it...? Have you talked to Harrowhark-san?

[he stans one bone lesbian even if he hasn't told her yet]
But ah... yeah! Were you still stuck on the train before all this...? Were you supposed to get what you wanted out of it too?
