The house and I are similar. [This explains literally nothing. Akechi may have jumped to conclusions. We don't know.] With a point to prove. It is proving it badly.
You have been given more time. Some sacrifices were made but your progress has been noted. [They tilt their head.] The source is much closer than you may think.
[i like how blue is just humoring him, what a good blue]
. . . all right. I'll keep that in mind. And I'll tell everyone else to keep an eye out for it, too. But if you have any other hints to give about the location of the source, they'd be appreciated.
[. . .]
Blue-- are you the one allowing people in the mansion to predict transformations each week?

. . . I think it has been. But. . . I'm starting to realize that that isn't your fault.
[lays his crutch in his lap, chin still lifted]
It's the house. Isn't it? It's working against you.

The sisters have said that from the very beginning. Akechi said it's because the house is a. . . god, right?
A god that's trying to prove a point.

[frowns a little, brow furrowed]
It is proving it badly. It's. . . trying to hurt us. To make us hurt each other.
Is the house responsible for turning people into monsters?

What "point" is the house trying to prove? Can you tell me?

[he makes a very distasteful expression at that, because it hits a little too close to home]
Is that what you wish for, too? Or. . . are you seeking something else?
no subject
no subject
Yeah. . . it does.
So how do we end it?

The "source?" The "source" of what?

[Akira nods, and then pulls his medallion out of his pocket, running his thumb over one side]
Would this help me find that "source?"
no subject
That will not be necessary. Access to the source is available for those who seek it out.
no subject
[lowering the medallion with a frown]
The Third Eye, then-- [ah] I mean. . . the green triangle that Ash has. That'll help us find it if we seek it out, right?
no subject
You may use it, I suppose, but that is also not necessary.
no subject
[anyway I hope you mods know that now Akira is going to try to send the house a calling card so thanks]
All right.
[chin up!! again!!]
We'll find the source. We'll stop the house from doing whatever it is it's doing.
And in the process, we'll free ourselves, those who have died here, and you from this vicious cycle.

no subject
The heart of the matter is what's most important.
[With that said...there's a nod.] The staff is helpful, but additional help is useful.
no subject
[Akira cracks a smile at that]
Have they been able to talk with you directly before now? And is there anyone else here you've allowed to have special privileges?
no subject
The girls are better with the guests.
no subject
You do seem to be a little more on the shy side.
[a being of few words]
. . . can I ask you a little more about yourself? Like-- what's your favorite drink?
