[tucks you in

saya squirms a little more, before giving up and just — slumping. she is trapped now.]

Aren't you scared of me? You saw.

[ballies]

[ does one more tag for saya.


yes she is caught now. ]

I don't know. I'm not gonna lie and say pretend it's not a surprise? [ she likes saya too much to lie to her to make her feel better and pretend everything's totally okay, wowee. ] I mean, I'm a guy's left eyeball so... it's not like I can really freak out about you having an appearance you're presenting to people, and one you're not when I'm kinda doing that myself.

[ who here is actually who they are presenting themselves as anyway? ]

I guess if this was our first week here, I'd probably be scared, but-- [ it's not. ]

[squelching]

... Mm.

[she sniffs, tilting her head to look at tama from a better angle.]

You're too big to be Ryuki's eyeball. Did this world change you, too?

[ballies]

[ idly strokes her hair. i guess they are just flopped on the ground in public like this. ]

Yeah. I can look like this, but it’s normally how I’m projecting myself to Ryuki and the other agents. And how they see me in Somniums. But “I’m” still here too. My item’s ‘Tama’, after all. It’s just a shell though.

It was weird, all the body stuff at the beginning, but I think I’m used to it now.

[the floor is their home now.]

... So it's not like it's a new form to you at all. But what's a Somnium?

[ballies]

Being actually physical sure is though. That's a whole other thing.

[ uhhh ]

A bit complicated? It's like a subconscious space in a person's mind, where they you can unearth hidden information. Things they might be unintentionally hiding... or intentionally hiding.

[squelching]

Hmm...? So you're basically invading someone's mind?

[ballies]

They have to sign waivers for us to be able to enter Somnium with them. Chasing serial killers or not, there’s government procedures to follow.
