More or less. It's more of a favor than anything but Master Blue has always been very kind to us. I don't mind being here even with the disturbances in the house.

Itâs just... There arenât that many rooms that arenât bedrooms, right? If the rules are right about the once a week thing and I started avoiding areas where something like this has happened, Iâm going to run out of places to go pretty quick.
When you put it like that, it makes a lot of sense. [Like. That would mean eventually Hunter's just locked in his room.] It's probably better not to be afraid of the rooms in this house anyway.
You could say that. There isn't a lot that we haven't seen from our guests in the last several years. But at the same time there's always something new to learn.

[Hm.]
After five thousand years, everything thatâs happening now must seem pretty normal to you, huh?

That's Nicolas! [She hasn't met Nic so she's going by his given name.] Mr. Wright told me to call him Nick.

You'd have to ask him. He just said it but that might've been so I stopped calling him Mr. Wright.
