No one here would be okay with that.

[ don't worry! she decided! ]

[turbulency]

[ he looks a little surprised at how firmly she says that, before smiling. ]

Yeah, that's the impression I got too.

[killies]

We all want out of here, so we'll all work towards that. Strength in numbers.

So even if someone didn't care what happens to the rest of us, they'd be shooting themselves in the foot.

[turbulency]

Yeah, there's a lot of them and only a few of us.

We need all the allies we can get.

[killies]

It is a bigger team than I'm used to having...

[turbulency]

How big is your team usually?

[killies]

Six people, including myself.

[turbulency]

What're you a team for?

[ somehow he doubts it's like, a soccer club ]

[killies]

We just kind of got stuck together.

[turbulency]

[ me checking the dates on our pcs ok ]

To fight monsters together?

[killies]

[ me as well ]

Yeah.

[turbulency]

Why?

[killies]

We... [ how to word this? she doesn't want to talk about it, but she isn't dodging the question either. ] We get pulled into another dimension. It's just us and the monsters.

[turbulency]

[ what ]

And that's related to the schedule that you mentioned?

[killies]

[ she's aware this sounds insane. ]

Yeah. It happens at midnight. It lasts for seven hours.

[turbulency]

Okay. [ slowly ] That sounds pretty terrible.

[killies]

It's... not great.

[turbulency]

How long has it been going on?

[killies]

A few months.

[turbulency]

[ every night?? for months??? ]

... There doesn't seem to be a way out?

[killies]

Not that we've found.

[ ... ]

Except it's not happening here.

[turbulency]

... Would you rather not go back?

[killies]

What? I have to go back. My friends are there.

[turbulency]

You're loyal to them.

You could choose to save yourself.

[killies]

[ she is so baffled by the suggestion. ]

None of us would have made it this far without each other. Could you just turn on your friends in that kind of situation?
