Y'know, I didn't think I'd get invited to leave, not when this is my second time here already! Heh, it's like they can't enough of me anyway, why would they wanna get rid of me now? Everything about this just doesn't add up.

[To the Blue Rogues ▫ 99.9% Unhackable]Hey, is there any one of us who's gonna go for it? Or not

You came here once before? Do you remember anything from the first time?

...I don't know what to think about all this.

[Voice]

[blue_velocity]

Yeah, I've been here before, but I don't remember the first time. ... Heh, and the first time? I've been told by people who remembered me before that the Malnosso turned me into a human being!

... I know I don't like it, that's for sure. There's too many things wrong with what they're proposing.

[Voice]

[esper_flight]

...that's...you mean for the duration of an experiment, or longer?

There has to be more to this than what there seems, but...I need to see what my housemates think.

[Voice]

[blue_velocity]

For the whole time I was here last time. 'Don't know how they did it though, but I'm a hedgehog, that's who I am! Unless they got me from some other world where I'm human, but I don't think so.

I gotta wonder what's behind it, if it's not just the experiment too. Do you think your housemates are gonna buy it?

[Voice]

[esper_flight]

That's just...strange. I'm glad they didn't change you this time, though. You should be allowed to be what you are.

I think they'll all be suspicious, but I'm not sure if that would stop us. I should find out.

[Voice]

[blue_velocity]

Thanks. Yeah, I like bein' me the way I am too, heh! I haven't heard of anyone else changin' that much since they've been brought here either.

What else would convince you to go? Maybe if your friends decided all together that they'd try it out?

[Voice/Filtered]

[esper_flight]

If they did that, then...yes. I couldn't let them take the risk and not take it myself. But really, it's more up to Kefka. If he stays, we can't leave him to torment everyone here. I wouldn't do that to the Blue Rogues, or the other people who tried to help me.

...you're one of them, right?

[Voice/Filtered]

[blue_velocity]

Oh, man, you're right. I know we can hold our own against him, but I get what you mean. Have you heard anything about if Kefka's gonna try it?

Part of the Blue Rogues? Yeah, I am! You too?

[Voice/Filtered]

[esper_flight]

No, not yet...but I was thinking about it. Why did you join? What exactly happens when you do? Do you know them all well?

[Voice/Filtered]

[blue_velocity]

Oh! I wanted to join so I could help out around the village, mostly with patrols or just makin' sure everyone's safe. Plus back home, I sometimes had to do things on my own, but I usually got a team workin' together. That's the best way to take care of things, I think!

There's usually a meeting at the barracks every month! I don't know 'em all well, but I do know they're ready to defend or fight whenever they're needed.

[Voice/Filtered]

[esper_flight]

Patrolling and monthly meetings don't sound too bad. I want to help, it's just not knowing everyone that gives me pause. I'm sure they wouldn't be in it if the leader thought they weren't suited, but....

[Voice/Filtered]

[blue_velocity]

No problem though, I get why you'd be a little worried. But so far everyone I've met's been great! If you're really unsure, you can always talk to Vyse, see who else is on the list.

But you don't hafta join a group if you don't want to! Just goin' on patrols works and we're always out whenever you wanna join us.

[Voice/Filtered]

[esper_flight]

Thank you. I need to think about it more, but you're right, I ought to talk to Vyse about it. There are a couple of others that I know as well, so I should see what they think. Maybe the next time he advertises, I'll be ready.

[Voice/Filtered]

[blue_velocity]

Hey, you're welcome, Terra! Any help we can get is great, so whenever you're ready! If you wanna come to a meeting, I think we'd all be okay with that too.

[Voice/Filtered]

[esper_flight]

You think I could, just to see what it's like? Would that be okay with Vyse?

[Voice/Filtered]

[blue_velocity]

Yeah, I don't see anythin' wrong with it! You're cool, I know ya, and you really want to help in some way. I don't think anyone could turn you away for that!
