[CONTINUE + 4] INTRO
[After so long a trip, you're all finally here. Taken through a hidden passage inside of the very mountain itself, you find yourself standing in front of a field of flowers, growing well due to the open roof above it. If you look up, you can just make out the shimmering colors off of the barrier - looking almost like the shine off of a soap bubble.
Try not to trample on the flowers as you approach the open, purple gate. And remember to wear your masks, now that you're here!
...Still, the sight of the yellow flowers waving in the wind....such a cheery sight fills you with determination for what's to come.
Welcome to the Underground.
...Again. The loop happened again, and you're here. Everything is the same.
Someone who was dead is alive again.
The trial...it was...you remember only up until Gilgamesh was FOUGHT against, and then...nothing.
You feel you shouldn't try to remember anything beyond that.
Not only that, But more monster names have faded from your memory.
...When will this end?]

[Drew remembers Ren was going to fight the king to try and find Yoshi's SOUL.]
But what happened after that? [He shouldn't think about it.] Drew? What happened next?
[Drew can't remember. Drew...] [there's a pause, like Drew's thinking.] [Drew won't try to remember.]
But what did we do? Why did it reset again? Where's--- [Who? The monster who met them last week? The... monster who... must have met them before?]

[Himeko curses under her breath when she realizes that she's hitting a roadblock in her memory and her thoughts just...
No, no, no -
She has to get out of here.
She can't be here right now, she can't have this happen. After seeing that Yoshi's alright she's just going to bolt, trying to find a place to be alone.
The park might be a good place for that right about now.]

meeting time
He doesn't select any buttons, and his and Drew's two glowing SOULS float calmly in the UI, overlapping almost perfectly.]
If we're like this, everyone can hear Drew's voice. [So we don't have to play the most boring game of Telephone.]
Please don't ask questions until he's finished explaining what happened during the rest of the trial.
[and then... a voice. It's a loud voice, and very real. It doesn't sound like it's in your head, it sounds like someone's right there beside you. It's the cheerful, innocent, cute sort of voice you'd expect from a mascot character like Drew.]
[Drew remembers the rest of the trial!
Ren started a FIGHT with the king, and the ACT menu was normal but after he used CHECK all of the buttons and commands turned into STOP SNOOPING.
A lot of people tried to break the buttons to rearrange them, and no one turned the UI into cake! Pepperspray tried to cover the STOP part of the command with duct tape but the tape fell off. Then the O5 used the really bad sword
the really bad one. The one that's just... really terrible.]
Drew, we all know about the SORD.
[But it's the worst sword Drew's ever seen! It was so bad it just floated out of the game after he used it!
That's the one he used to cut STOP SNOOPING in half. Ren took the STOP command and the O5 wanted to use SNOOP but no one liked that idea because he's valuable, so Chuuta and Marisa and the guy who's scared of dogs and Pepperspray and a bunch of other people wanted to SNOOP instead. And while the girl who makes a lot of plans was making a plan Marisa just hit SNOOP on her own!
And then the UI said]
Oh.
[And then the SOUL came out of a portal that the king can make, but it wasn't the king who made it, it was the entity. And then the entity said]
That wasn't supposed to happen.
[And then everyone yelled at it. Oh! We can't break the buttons anymore, that's what it told Chuuta. And it said it expected us to vote but we didn't. And Ren shot his hook shot through the gate and the entity took it. And it called a lot of people puppets and it said it's above the gods and can't be destroyed. It said some other things too.
And it said it was bored and wanted to see what would happen if it killed all of us. And then Ren used the STOP button.]
[That rapid-fire stream of words suddenly stops, before starting up again, somehow... smaller this time.]
[And everything stopped. And Drew was waiting.]
no subject
[Except for the fact that this seems to be so much but it's also valuable.]
I assume the 'girl who makes a lot of plans' is probably me, but -
I know this is a summarized version, but... do you have the entire dialogue that the entity said memorized? I want to write all the words down, specifically, to the letter. No paraphrasing, just straight up quotes, since things can get lost in a summary, especially intent.

To be honest, if it were just some ordinary trial, it'd be fine - but of course it wasn't. And that's where she hit her breaking point. Memory loss was never something that she could ever accept.
And that's why she snapped too harshly, too quickly.
But at the same time... she knows that she absolutely meant it, too. Because there's that nagging, gut feeling of where she feels so useless compared to everyone else. And even when she's in her element, with having no powers and all, there's still something lacking -
She knows she's not allowed to lean on others...
... but she can't just push them away, either...
Those two contradicting thoughts - how she wants to throw away any and all emotions and shut herself out like she used to, and how she wants to be more earnest, more true to herself... but she's not sure if she can even do that anymore.
Whenever she gets the chance, she heads straight towards the river house - not to look for anything, but just to sit down, right next to the river, staring... not exactly impassively at it, but there's a sense of longing in her expression.
If anyone dares to see her - she's writing something in her notebook; she also has her phone off to the side. She seems to be keeping it to her home menu screen, which seems to have a photo as her current wallpaper. There's also music playing from her phone as well.
And if there's someone who dares to listen in, she does speak, softly, to herself:]
I wonder what they'd all think if they saw me now... ha. I really am a mess, aren't I?
[For a moment, she runs fingers through her bangs, chewing on her lower lip anxiously.]
Let's see if I can at least write this piece, though.

The hook will be easy enough to make- it's the gears that are gonna be a bitch...
[Later in the night though, when he's pretty sure he's alone:]
...fuck, I miss you. I know you probably would be teasing me for second-guessing anything, huh? Guys like us, we do best when we don't think, just act...
[Oh... he's talking to Nine. Or the Nine that will hear this a week from now... But after a few moments, this time making sure to look straight up at the ceiling:]
And you... should I be grateful? Even if it was just to save your own ass- you still undid my fuck up. So, thanks. I don't like not acknowledging debts.
[He knows acknowledging that they know is risky- but if it can read their thoughts it was impossible to hide anyway. And it's vague enough that unless it knows already it would be a harmless comment]
flower field;
Actually, he's hardly even ever come this way before. But, it was an eventuality in a way. ]
There is that laboratory, isn't there? Perhaps the parts you will need will be there.

The smell of tea is in the air, and the door is open, while he's searching the kitchen for ingredients for the pie, someone has to make sure they have enough healing items just in case.
Of course, Spider's in a teacup, with a bag of green tea acting as both a pillow and intoxicant for a spider.]
