good
i was halfway to spending a token on getting you a fancy one to replace it

[alienation]

How sweet of you. 😈

[ This is his equivalent of 😊 ]

[markofkaine]

i wonder
if it's worth blowing the tokens anyway
with the way the warden is i don't know if there's going to be enough games to try and get that wish
if that's the case...

[alienation]

[ A pause. ]

Did you see the shop program today?

[markofkaine]

yeah
shit's ****

[alienation]

I never officially signed my name to Wilbur's resistance because I had concerns that this could happen.

However, there's no saying that playing along any further would have been any better. Rather, it could easily have been much worse.

I still believe that we could find a way to unlock the power behind this place ourselves, at the very least.



... what would you use yours on?

[markofkaine]

it's not like i have that many to start with
who knows if unlocking more shapeshifting powers will even stay with me outside this place

[alienation]

I imagine it depends on whether or not the possessions also follow us.

[ awful thought. ]

Let us consider what may help you here. Things are starting to seem more and more dire.

[markofkaine]

[truly terrible]

well the sun's down
you want to do that thinking somewhere outside?

[alienation]

[ just.. normal monster prison things... ]

I will meet you amongst the graves, then.

[markofkaine]

see you there

[Kaine will be spider crouched on a tombstone, as one might expect]

[alienation]

[ naturally.

hi. ]

I would join you in crouching upon things, but I fear that I would just look ridiculous.

[markofkaine]

It takes years of practice, brooding on rooftops.

Have you seen what happened to the clocktower?

[alienation]

I've seen that it's opened, but the sunlight took an opportunity to show itself before I could explore its depths.

[markofkaine]

I took a peek earlier when I stopped by the suggestion box.

[Hops off his perch and holds out his hand]

You wanna look?

[alienation]

Well, it does seem a bit like our tradition now.

[ takes his hand. ]

[markofkaine]

You love it.

[With a grin, Kaine squeezes his hand and leads him to the clocktower - and through the door, to the lush greenhouse inside. Hopefully now night appropriate for gargoyles.]

[alienation]

... something so beautiful was in here all along?

[markofkaine]

...Guess this might be the bunny kid's home? It makes sense if he-- and 'Shelley-san' - used to be the original residents of this world.

[Let us take a stroll through the flowers,]

[alienation]

That could be it.

[ Every so often he's going to pause to make them both look at a flower ok. ]

What I expected to be in here was far worse, anyhow.

[ Like, a door to hell, maybe. ]

[markofkaine]

[ah, mandatory flower appreciation break...]

Well, I wouldn't take you here if it was dangerous.

[Like they did have a double date investigating a torture room but that's different]

[alienation]

You could.

[ wasn't it great fun then! ]

Here, this one has such a lovely scent.

[markofkaine]

[I did get to punch Wilbur, so. That was a plus.]

Okay well. The lead up would've been a little different.

[Sniffs~~]

[alienation]

[ so sweet... so floral... ]

That's right. We're on a date now, aren't we?

[ look! an aesthetic stone bench!! time to sit for a moment before continuing. ]

[markofkaine]

Well if you're having a nice time, and I'm having a nice time - I guess we are.

[OOPS, A DATE!]
