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?

[turbulency]

[ His expression is kind of bittersweet. ]

No. [ ... ] But I think a lot of people would.

Who's affected by this, by the way? Just a few of you or your entire country...?

[killies]

I don't know about that. Maybe some people would, but not a lot.

[ ... ]

It's just us six.

[turbulency]

Oh.

What about the people not affected? Can they help you?

[killies]

It's complicated.

[ she shakes her head... that's enough of this. ]

The point is... [ what were they talking about. ] This group is way more people. That means more help, but it also means less organization.
