Yes, yes. I've seen it in that state, before, too.

[drymonster]

You think that was really it, then? The place you know.

[she's been speaking in riddles and being cryptic, but.]

It sounds very similar. And so does she. But I don't know why. I didn't do it on purpose, so don't be angry with me, alright?

[drymonster]

[ he blinks; that wasn't a conclusion he'd been planning on jumping to already. ]

I... okay?

[ what the hell does this mean, does her world have some connection to this one? ]

[undread]

[that's the immediate fear she had the moment this came up - that she'd be blamed for what happened to them.]

Okay.

[drymonster]

[ nods slowly... okay ]

Do you think that place is linked to this one somehow?

[ maybe it's not actually about you? ]

[undread]

[it's true. this seems so egotistical, doesn't it. what's a player cyoa.]

...Maybe Delilah did it. That's what I wonder.

[drymonster]

[ yeah! he has no idea!

but yikes, okay, that... definitely seems to solidify a connection of some kind. hm. ]

Well... she seemed to be behind everything that happened to us, at least.

[undread]

Yes. So maybe she was trying to get a foothold here...

[drymonster]

[ nods... ]

She was trying to get us to bring her here, I think.

[this makes her nervous, she starts twisting a strand of hair around her hand.]

She didn't manage it, but she might try again.

[drymonster]

You think so? We destroyed the object she was getting her power from... and stabbed her...

[undread]

The object she drew her power from...?

[drymonster]

Yeah, it was... a doll? Kind of like...

[ takes out his little burlap doll ]

But, you know. Not me.

[undread]

I see.

[that part of the cyoa was more metaphorical than anything so she doesn't know how to react to that.]

I don't think Delilah likes dolls. [it probably didn't kill her.]

[drymonster]

Well, I don't think it was hers, exactly, it... belonged to this girl, I think. I'm not sure what the link there was.

[undread]

I see.

[does she? she doesn't.]

Well. Perhaps you managed it. It will be a relief if you did.
