By Yukari-san's suggestion, I've taken shelter in Horton, room 215. That should put me next to Shinjiro-san, shouldn't it? But I hope it's all right to simply take this room. I didn't detect anyone inside, so I don't think I'm intruding

...wouldn't mind some of that aspirin.

[metatronius]

Should I leave it by your door?

[prodigal_axe]

Don't bother. I'll just pick it up when I'm over there next.

[Translation: Someone's going to sleep at the bar tonight.]

[metatronius]

Oh... All right.

Um, Shinjiro-san? I wanted to ask you some questions. It doesn't have to be right now, but when you're feeling better.

Is that so...

[prodigal_axe]

Alright. Questions about what?

[metatronius]

How long have you been here? How long ago was I here?

... When was Minato-san here?

[metatronius]

And, when he was here... was he okay? Was he well? Was he happy, despite being in a place like this?

[...That's a lot of questions. Oh well, he did ask for it.]

[prodigal_axe]

It's been about... two and a half years. Minato got here about a week before I did.

[prodigal_axe]

Took him awhile, but he didn't mind this place once he found something to do here.

...oh, and you were here about a year ago.

[metatronius]

I see... You've been here for so long, longer than any of us had realized. And so has he.

[metatronius]

And, that sounds just like what he'd do. [She chuckles quietly to herself... but somewhat bitterly too.]

...don't let it bother you. Most of the time, I don't mind this place.

[prodigal_axe]

Look... I don't wanna get your hopes up, but people show up all the time here.
