[battling]

No. What happened there?

[agleam]

Shinobu said they got in, the lights flickered, and they saw some kind of apparitions in the lobby... Then when they got out, they felt weirdly numb and had trouble moving around or holding onto things. Like, they couldn't feel their arms or legs.

[battling]

How long did that last?

That's not any better than startin' to forget people ya care about. Looks like this place is startin' to scare us early.

[agleam]

Um... A little less than an hour between when I started talking to them, I think. I'm not exactly sure when it started, though, so it's hard to say how long it lasted overall.

[he frowns.]

I don't know about that. I mean, I'm sure it's starting to try and scare us, but - I'd definitely rather lose feeling in my limbs rather than forget about someone important.

[battling]

Hm. The screamin' lasted for around an hour too.

If you can't feel your limbs, you can't fight back when somebody's tryin' to kill you. Hearin' people screamin' is just unsettlin'.

[agleam]

Yeah, but it didn't happen on Thursday.

[...]

At least, I don't think it did. Actually, is there a calendar or anything anywhere you've seen? What day even is it?

[battling]

Not a single one.

If it's the same as at school? We're probably on... Sunday?

[agleam]

So we've got, like... Four days? Probably.

[battling]

Wednesday had random shit to do, so we can base it off that too.

[agleam]

Oh, no. Do you think the debates are going to come back...?

[battling]

"Are bears real"?

[agleam]

If anyone tries to make me eat cereal again I'm leaving.

[that still wasn't cereal.]

[battling]

I really don't care about straws and holes that much.

Gonna throw animal crackers at somebody if they try makin' me eat 'em.

[agleam]

[he snorts]

What's wrong with animal crackers?

[battling]

You aren't ya sick of 'em after weeks of those things?

[agleam]

It's been months since I've had them, although they're definitely still not high on my list of things I'd choose to eat.

[battling]

[darkly:] I'm never forgivin' animal crackers.

[agleam]

Ooh... Are they on the same level as vegetables now...?

[battling]

Nothin' tastes as bad as veggies, but it's a real close second.

[agleam]

You know you can put, like, seasoning or sauce on them to make them taste better, right? Dressing, too.

[battling]

[uuugh]

Don't sound like Nero.

[agleam]

Your husband sounds like a smart man.

[now he's just teasing.]

[battling]

He is, but he ain't right about veggies.

[agleam]

Ohh... Marital strife...

[battling]

He's sneakin' 'em in when I ain't lookin'.
