I hate to tell you this Monobun, but knowing what we know now that sounds pretty damn ominous.

[cluedin]

[ she inclines her head like. fair enough ]

I understand. I doubt it would help if I assured you the Master would prefer you all alive as well, I assume?

[voidbreaker]

[ heh. ]

A little positive reenforcement never hurt anyone. But hey, if we were all gone there’d be no one wrecking the lounge anymore.



Or the kitchen.

[cluedin]

[ why would you remind her ]

Yes. I cannot wait for it, sir.

[voidbreaker]

[ hey. honesty. he just laughs. ]

Fair enough.

But shout if someone wrecks the library again. I wouldn’t mind a few words with whoever did that.

[cluedin]

It is my understanding that a group of them did so when they were locked in last Thursday night, sir.

[ she had to replace... so much furniture ]

[voidbreaker]

[ ....... ]

Did they damage any books?

[ P R I O R I T I E S ]

[cluedin]

Yes. I believe they must have been...thrown? I have fixed them to the best of my abilities.

[voidbreaker]

[ boooooks.... nooooooooo!!! ]

... what’s the point in throwing books around? It’s not like they’ve got the weight to break a door down if they’re light enough for you to pick up and throw.

[ still ]

Thanks for fixing them, though.

[cluedin]

The actions of guests remain a constant mystery to me, sir.

[ she inclines her head at the thanks, but: ]

I was simply doing my job.

[voidbreaker]

[ he won't make a comment about the actions of the staff and master of the house in return. ]

Maybe ban people from the library before they can get locked in there again.

[cluedin]

The Master says all guests must be allowed to roam freely as much as possible...

[ she wishes tho ]

[voidbreaker]

But not outside and back to our own homes freely, huh.

[cluedin]

That is ... more complicated to arrange.

[voidbreaker]

Complicated. But not impossible.

[ he’s. pretty sure if it was impossible she would have just deadpan told him so. ]

[cluedin]

Did you believe yourselves trapped here forever?

[voidbreaker]

For the long run. And then people started getting murdered and that’s pretty permanent.

[cluedin]

[ she brushes her skirt with a hum ]

Yes, that does tend to seem more permanent.

[voidbreaker]

Not sure what else could be.

[ except if you’re an awakener but ash doesn’t actually know that yet and it isn’t relevant here, so. ]

[cluedin]

[ or IS IT? She nods again tho ]

I can only offer assurance that the Master did not bring the guests here so they may kill each other, sir. I understand if that may be hard to believe.

[voidbreaker]

[ nibbles on that modly meta text and is fed ]

Yeah, a little. If he didn't want a fancy bloodbath, what DID he want from us?

[cluedin]

Oh, the Master wants many things, though I can't pretend to understand all of them.

[ she sounds judgmental. ngl. ]

[voidbreaker]

[ judge away monobun ]

Sounds like a greedy kinda guy. Or one that’s stubborn enough to know what he wants.

[cluedin]

Neither of those guesses are incorrect, I would say.

[voidbreaker]

[ huh. ]

You’re pretty forthcoming with info today.
