...Kind of hard to think of anything after this as real, huh. You start to think you'll be here forever, even while you're seeing people you've made friends with go home all the time.

[She knows that feeling, after being here for more than a year.]

[punnybone]

Something like that, yeah.

[It's an easier explanation than the actual reason, anyway. He'll gladly just take it.]

Guess that's natural after you spend a lot of time here, huh? 'Specially not knowing exactly how long it'll be.

[chasescenes]

A year and four months for me, so far. [She keeps track.] Most people don't spend that long.

I guess I'm just lucky.

[punnybone]

That long... Geez. Getting tired just thinking about that.

But there's worse places to spend that much time, huh?

[chasescenes]

Yeah.

I'd rather be here than home.

[She has friends here, and home has the hellhole known as Mogeko Castle.]

[punnybone]

Yeah? That bad, huh? Wonder how many people 'round here feel that way.

Heh... [He idly moves his bottle of ketchup a little.] Think I might rather be here too.

[chasescenes]

It's that bad. -but it's okay, because the Witch says I can go back with one of my friends instead of home, once I've paid off my debt. So I don't have to be back in that hellhole ever again.

Don't think you could come with us, though. They might think skeletons were weird. ...Sorry.

[punnybone]

Ouch. Weird, huh?

[He looks... not even a little offended. Skeletons are pretty weird. Especially this one.]

Hah, but nah, no worries. I'm just gonna go wherever my bro goes. Back home or... wherever. Don't really care.

[chasescenes]

Just as long as he's there, it's fine, huh? I'd probably have said something like that...

[Before the everything happened.]

Good luck to you two.
