What's all this then? It's pretty unexpected, I have to say. If this is what I've been missing out on, I'll have to start sneaking out of the Palace again.

[he looks around idly, seeming pretty calm and unmoved by it all. He's just chill and almost pleasantly so]

Still, as nice as the scenery is, pulling people into Machines isn't something to be taken lightly. Grand experiments like this without the consent of the test subjects aren't something I can condone. I might have to talk to some people. Hopefully there aren’t any idiots I know getting themselves mixed up in anything they shouldn't be. It would be a hassle to have to clean up someone else's mess again.

[a sigh that's somewhere between annoyed and unamused. He crosses his arms over his chest, and if there was a throne somewhere he'd take a seat. Oh well, he'll just look around expectantly]

So how about someone come out and tell me how to get out of this place? While the look of the place and the new surroundings are great, being trapped too long in one place would be annoying.

A pleasure to meet you, Peony.

[he ignores the tensing]

So what do people do around here for fun, Mu?

That's a question better posed to those who spend their time here for recreation. However, there's quite a large library to peruse.

You don't say. So what's someone like you doing here right now, if it's not for fun?

Waiting, I suppose. Home is somewhat uncomfortable at the moment.

Oh yeah? Why's that?

My reality has merged with that of my companion. His time is currently running very slowly compared to mine, and thus home is rather uncomfortable. What is but a moment to him, I perceive as days.

So it's all because of this place. If that's the case, why don't you just talk to whoever is running this thing?

Because I have a distinct feeling that those in charge have lost control. Moreover, they'd not be able to help - Mergers can be countered by avoiding the other person, but Shion and I are quite close.

Hell, if they are losing control it might be the best time to approach them. They might be willing to work with you if they need some help in return.

Hm. I hadn't thought of that. Perhaps I will.

If you're going to work with them, the best time to get something going is when they're looking for help.

But hey, things must have gotten pretty wild here if you think those guys in charge lose control.

I remember them telling me that they attracted the attention of 'bad people' who were stronger than they. The result thus far has been a marked increase in the number of deaths. There is more than one goal being worked toward, I feel.

You have to wonder what their definition of "bad people" is, considering everything.

Given recent happenings, possibly quite in line with the typical notion of 'bad people.'

Then you better start working with those guys in charge now, since they sound a hell of a lot better than the ones trying to take over the place.

I think I may pay them a visit. I've something to return, anyways.

Oh? Anything good?

Simply a teacup.

A teacup?

Not long ago...[Hnnngn excuse him, Peony. He's fighting his own pride] I was attacked, and did not survive. I awoke in the Twins' shop. They handed me a cup of tea and sent me home. I should return the cup, at least.

You didn't survive? You look pretty alive to me.

Is it necromancy they're messing with here?

I don't know how we're brought back to life, but we are.

Have you been brought back a lot?

Just once, personally, but I'm sure there are some who have seen death several times, for one reason or another.
