Nice to meet you. [ they echo. though they seem to be pondering how to answer that first question, vine curling and uncurling, before settling on: ] Blue is the name you can use.
[ they're... obviously thinking about how to respond. ]
Different. [ is a word they settle on. they gesture at the wall with one hand, and the vines on their chest and eye both follow to help point. ] We are similar.
[He looks towards the ground for a moment, rubbing at his neck.]
Sorry. I should have written back, I just - it's not an excuse. I wasn't sure we could trust you, but... Now I get that you've been trying to help us the entire time.
Understandable to be wary. Information in this place can be... [ what's a non pissed off way to say it? ] treacherous. And you have been through a lot.
[ hunter specifically or the gang in general? they do not expand ]
Right, but... What would have happened if you didn't bring us here?
[...]
If we do fuck up and all of us die, though, I would definitely recommend an age limit for the next time you do this. The part where there's an 11 year old here is kind of messed up.
Well, I guess it doesn't matter since we're not going to let that happen.
[Still, though, he looks curious.]
If that's the case, though, in a hypothetical and definitely not real situation where this happens over again, wouldn't you be able to pick people who are older than us...?
I observe souls. The ones that are closest to the necessary traits, those are the guests. [ they seem to be thinking about it ] Ken Amada was a good pick.
Okay, I have numerous questions about why you picked some of these people, but first off - you get why bringing someone young here is bad, right? Or has nobody explained that to you either...?

Not that it's bad or anything, but - have you always looked like this, too?
no subject
Like what?

I am not human.

[ ... so not much of an answer. ]

[After a moment:]
It's good to finally get to talk to you. I didn't think I'd really get the chance before we got out of here.

[ they seem a little bummed out about it??? ]

no subject
Yeah. It hasn't been easy for anyone. But... It's not like you brought us here just to mess with us.
no subject
[ they might not want any of this but they share the blame? they're fine admitting that. ]

Eleven is... young.
[ this sounds like they're trying to confirm it more than agreeing. ]
no subject
Yeah. Like, really young. Nobody's ever told you that before...?
no subject
[ sometimes the youngest people are ... stubborn. ]
no subject
Well, they were. And, I mean, most of us are, too. Usually the cut off age is around 18, but I'd definitely put it higher for something like this.
no subject
I do not know ... if that is possible.
