[CONTINUE + 3] Week 1 || Act: mingle

[foundationmods]

Monday comes onto the snowy town once more, though it still looks as if it's 'night' as ever.

Then again, you are underground. That's just to be expected, considering no natural light can get down here in the first place. The Monsters around you are just as friendly as ever, despite this being your fourth 'time' trying this monday.

There doesn't seem to be many Monsters here...or at least, you think there was more before? Huh.

Well, whatever.

You still have a mission - And with three trials under your belt, you're now a little closer to figuring things out.

...How much longer will this repeat?

In the flesh.

[No imagining here, she's definitely present and solid.]

[justonezero]

[Cool then she'll be solid enough to hug.]

It's- It's really good to see you again. Um, besides at trials.

[Time to cry.]

[backspacing]

[Noooo, no crying allowed! But she will hug him.]

I'm sorry I couldn't appear more often than that. I'm pretending to be a monster here, and my absence would have been noticed. I only managed to sneak away for a short while here by pretending to take a nap.

Speaking of which, my time here is limited, but I'll try to give you everything I know.

[justonezero]

[Nodding into the hug! He's still crying a little but that won't stop him from speaking.]

So that's why you didn't come out even when I played your music...

Are there times when you aren't as busy?

[backspacing]

It's...hard to tell, sometimes. Perhaps it would be best to have a message system? This place is safe from prying eyes, so we could take turns leaving letters here.

[justonezero]

[Nodding again.]

Then, I'll start leaving notes for you so you know what we've figured out.

[He will do his best not to get too sidetracked while writing them, even!]

[backspacing]

If they're left in here, it should be fine. I would be careful about taking them out of here, though. Whatever is messing with us, it can get into inventories.

[justonezero]

[........Ah.]

So anything we're carrying could be seen... maybe even corrupted?

Is this building safeguarded from... that?

[Did Professor M make some kind of math barrier?]

[backspacing]

We worked long and hard to make the barrier here, specifically to protect anything we found. This was where we met to converse, as it was better if the monsters did not know of our connection.

[Her voice sounds sad as she describes that too.]

I'm not so sure anything here will be useful anymore, not without that man to decode the notes he left. But you can use this room for your own purposes, and form plans here without worrying about being overheard.

[justonezero]

If there's anyone who could make something nearly impossible to hack, it would be him.

[He can remember that much.]

...What kind of Monster have you been pretending to be, anyway?

[backspacing]

I was going to say that I should let you all figure that out, but Cinque tattled about how bad all of you are at hide and seek.

[justonezero]

Yeah, we're pretty much terrible at it!

[Cheerfully said.]

[backspacing]

[Okay, she actually does laugh there. How she missed you, Yoshi.]

I'll tell you at a later time, then. Though I was hoping it might be obvious who I am.

[justonezero]

I seriously thought Cookie Gojira was on vacation here when Cinque pretended to be him. I only caught on because she kept patting me on the head.

My perception stat needs work!

[backspacing]

Work on that a little more, and maybe you will figure out what monster I am.

[justonezero]

Eh? You aren't going to tell me after all?

[But he wants to knooooooow]

[backspacing]

You'll figure it out.
