[slobjection]

Just observe potential? Nothing more?

[cluedin]

...it is difficult to explain. [And perhaps not worth explaining.]

[slobjection]

[ hm. ]</small Would you say the house had an ability among the same lines.... or do you think it consumed to gain access to it? Maybe to be able to consume souls with potential?

[cluedin]

It has its own. [There's a shrug.] ...its ability absorbs to gain.

[slobjection]

What does it gain? Aside from satisfaction?

[cluedin]

...do you think it needs more than that? [Blue hasn't exactly been in the most friendly of moods to ask the house what the hell it's doing.]

[slobjection]

[ shoulda asked for a confession when wrestling the house. ]

... Well, I just thought if we knew what it wanted from us... aside from us murdering each other, we could figure out a way to turn the tables on it.

[cluedin]

...it would never be that easy. It does not like the truth very much.

[slobjection]

I do get that feeling.

[ ... ]

Is that something we could use to our advantage? Discovering truths about its nature?

[cluedin]

Yes. If you can before things change.

[slobjection]

So we're on a time limit..... An extremely short one.

[cluedin]

Yes. Very short...shorter than you may think.

Can you handle that?

[slobjection]

I'll do my best.

[ immediately dies ]

[cluedin]

Okay. [A long pause.] ...thank you.

[slobjection]

Shouldn't that be my line? I feel you've got a much more thankless job than I do.

[ also offering blue a pudding ]

[cluedin]

No. [Though they look at the pudding curiously before taking it. Theirs now.] It is...important. Thankless does not matter.

[They're used to people being mean basically.]

[slobjection]

[ eat the pudding, apollo. ]

If you say so. But after a few thousand years of being misunderstood and hated... I don't think most would be jumping to defend guests. It says something that you are.

[cluedin]

[They eat the pudding...]

...the guests are the best hope. That is all. [They want to believe people will be different and actually help. So. What else can they do?]

[slobjection]

[ offers another ]

[ listen he's praising blue for still being optimistic after so long!! ]

I think you're a pretty good hope, yourself.

[cluedin]

[They eat the second pudding?? Peach cries somewhere else in the house.]

It is a joint effort. Guests...make it easier.

[slobjection]

[ poor peach. ]

In the best case scenario.

[cluedin]

What do you think is the worst case...?

[slobjection]

... Probably what's happened to previous groups.

[ bc like yikes, scoob ]

[cluedin]

...perhaps. It is best to avoid it if possible. [Yikes indeed.]
