[ back to the shitty manor where the opera singer is? he rather die irl.

the assumption that naib would play a children's game that didn't involve play-stabbing or play-neck-snapping is kind of weird. but the premise seems simple enough and while naib wouldn't consider himself to be particularly bright, he can adapt. that's what a mercenary has to be able to do. use whatever's available. be flexible. break dance at a soon-to-be-sent-back-to-the-manor-magician's chair. etc. ]


Do you believe that I'll give you a single truth?

[ the people in the paintings flat out boo. how this man isn't amusing enough for them... it means they'll never escape. the explanation rings in his ears because they have to be so explicit and obvious to naib, whose head emptiness is a liability but his reflexes and impulsivity are... not. somehow. ]

But I'll do it. I guess. [ muttering: ] It doesn't seem like we have a choice. You have to go first.
