... If I'm wrong, I'm sorry. [ DIPLOMATICALLY. ]

[soba]

Yeah. You should be sorry.

[ although it's said quietly

since she is, in fact, right. ]

[inveilsible]

... Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?

[ WELL.

Now she feels bad. ]

[soba]

[ oh my god

... ]

You're kind of easy to boss around.

[inveilsible]

N-no one's ever said that to me! They usually just tell me I'm useless so I'm not worth the effort...

[ This is almost like a compliment. ]

[soba]

[ holy shit ]

... even the people who can see you?

[inveilsible]

Ah, well, some of them don't like me... but my friends tell me I don't have to force myself.

[ Yeah!! ]

[soba]

... well, I guess just because you have to hang around them doesn't mean they'll like you.

[ hm ]

[inveilsible]

R-right... I guess I'm used to that too.

[soba]

Get less used to it.

[ he gives her a look. ]

[inveilsible]

... Um? I-I'm not sure how, exactly--

[ With her hands held up, placating. ]

[soba]

You need to figure it out.

[ helpful. ]

[inveilsible]

Um, but... I mean, you're right...

[ But that takes time, okay-- ]

[soba]

... right.

[ but okay, they are out of the park now. he pauses, looking around. where to go... ]

[inveilsible]

... Um--

[ But that's when Sana pauses, blinking at someone walking just slightly ahead of them. Said person looks dazed, but meandering in a clear direction. ]

[soba]

[ toi, meanwhile, keeps walking, and it takes a moment to realize she's distracted. ]

What?

[inveilsible]

... That person over there... can you talk to them? Something doesn't feel right.

[ And she can't really call out to them, because she doesn't exist to them. ]

[soba]

[ uh

he looks at who she's indicating, clearly confused ]

What do you want me to say?

[inveilsible]

Ask them where they're going.

... Or what they're trying to do.

[soba]

[ he just gives her a Look

... but then he'll walk over. ]

Oi. You. What are you doing?

[inveilsible]

[ Said person looks at him rather blankly, seeming to take a minute to process the question-- before he smiles vaguely.

"It's wonderful, isn't it? Will you come with me? I'll show you just how amazing it is." ]

...

[soba]

Amazing how?

[ he glances back at her, like he's trying to see if he should? keep talking or what?? ]

[inveilsible]

[ Sana nods encouragingly, and that person sure seems... well. Still very out of it, but willing to keep talking.

"It's beyond description... I'll show you. Come with me. You'll understand then."

Still with that blank smile, but now all they seem to be able to do is repeat "Come with me." ]

[soba]

... sure. Let's go.

[ he just. looks at sana again

????? GURL ]

[inveilsible]

[ Sana nods, moving closer to him. ]

I think... he's been kissed by a Witch. He should lead you to her Labyrinth and then, um... you're free to go. I'll take care of the rest.
