Warnings: Vague mentions of torture instruments, and strange fangirling over the supernatural (witches, warlocks, vampires, werewolves, that sort of thing). Also vaguely hint at semi-spoilers for Pandora Hearts.
Dream Effect: [OPTIONAL] As Ada discusses her choices of literature, there will be a strong feeling of emptiness in the viewer. There's a

[... Dominic didn't peg Ada as the kind to be fascinated in that kind of thing, but he'll respect her interests.]

You must really like those kind of stories...

[Compared to Dominic, who has no real hobbies or passions.]

[onkittypatrol]

Oh, but I do! It's all so interesting and just imagine what would happen if it were to all be made real! Wouldn't that be a stunning revelation?

[unfearful]

Y-Yeah, it would... though that might not be such a good thing for us humans...

[Guess who comes from a world with huge species coexistence issues.]

[onkittypatrol]

Oh... I'm sure something could possibly be worked out? Negotiation should be able to fix things, I would hope!

[unfearful]

[If only it were that easy--but Dominic knows better than to say that out loud.]

Ah... yeah.

[onkittypatrol]

[Pleased Ada is pleased. General faith in people and creatures alike is a nice thing to have.]

So if you wouldn't mind answering, has anything transpired during my absence, Dominic?

[unfearful]

... Have you noticed the spirits yet?

[onkittypatrol]

Spirits? [PINGED.] If you would excuse me a moment...

[And you can hear her rushing to the window, the rushed opening of blinds, followed by a moment of stunned silence... and finally a girlish squeal as she sees the numerous people walking amongst the streets.]

A-... Amazing...!

[unfearful]

[He just smiles softly at her enthusiasm. With everything else that's been going on, it's nice to see some simple joy.]

[onkittypatrol]

[She comes back to the Dreamberry, obviously quite overjoyed at this recent development.]

And you're sure they're all spirits? Oh, I hope they don't cause any trouble, but... this is so exciting!

[unfearful]

Well, I'm not sure what they are exactly, but... they suddenly appeared a few days ago. They seem to be under the impression that they've always been here, though.

[onkittypatrol]

Really...? How strange! I wonder... Could it be that they're former inhabitants of this place?

[She talks before she speaks in that instance. If there were that many people there before, then...]

I wonder what happened...

[unfearful]

... The Noctaere, likely.

[onkittypatrol]

Noctaere...?

[It rings a bell, though she's never done any actual investigation on Somarium.]

[unfearful]

... They're creatures that can't be killed, as far as we know. According to the Overlord, they were at war with the people before us, who fled.

[onkittypatrol]

That's terrible!
