[NOT THE FEATHERED HAT

she's probably sitting somewhere, dealing with the weight of watching FRIDAY INVESTIGATION. but when aventurine drops the hat on her, she looks up in surprise.]

Aventurine! Are you feeling better?

[tactic]

[ Ah, the dreaded Friday investigation... Aventurine takes a seat next to her. ]

Better than yesterday. [ So that's an improvement. He'll look at the scratch on her face with a small frown. ] How are you?

[segnale]

I'm, um—I'm okay. Still feeling a little weird, I guess, but hopefully it'll pass.

[looks over him worriedly]

[tactic]

Yeah, I think I know what you mean.

[ He's still hallucinating, after all. ]

I wanted to apologize, Nona. And thank you, for yesterday.

[segnale]

[she shakes her head.]

You don't need to apologize. That place was messing with you, right? I'm sorry that I... took such drastic action. I kind of panicked.

[tactic]

No, you did what needed to be done. I just wish I hadn't put you in that position.

[ His bad... ]

If there is a next time, stab me as much as you want.

[segnale]

—I don't want to stab you, though!?

[PLEASE]

[tactic]

Consider it blanket permission if I ever lose my mind again.

[ Which seems to happen a lot. ]

[segnale]

Can we resort to less lethal methods first...

[tactic]

Oh. Think you could knock me out?

[segnale]

[thinks]

I'd do my best!

[tactic]

[ Laughs softly. ]

I know you would. Thanks, Nona.

[segnale]

[she smiles back.]

Nehan has the rock, but if you ever want the one Erin gave me, let me know!

[as a replacement for your beloved tooth]

[tactic]

[ Nothing could ever replace his tooth. ]

I think it's safest with you. I'm still holding out hope that it'll have some uses.

[segnale]

I'll be so bummed if it turns out that it doesn't.

[tactic]

All that suffering we faced together... Surely it had to have meaning.

[ FOR WHAT DID THEY EXPERIENCE THE HORRORS ]

[segnale]

This place wouldn't make us do that just for fun, right? ... Right?

[tactic]

Who knows? It's up to us to decide until we can find answers, and I've decided... that what we did was important.

[segnale]

[a little laugh]

Hehe, that's true! Who's anyone to say otherwise?
