...Wasn't one day of this enough? I'd think you people have better things to do than flood this city. Go back where you came from already. And stay there this time.
You should know this by now, but stay out of the Opera Abandoned unless you're given permission to enter by either Rue, Cain, or myself. And keep your festivities outside, where they

Wasn't he just talking to her? ]

...Well. Whether this is the same one or not, she doesn't seem too much different from normal.
Bending down, he offers her a hand to help her back up. ]
Watch where you're going, moron.

[[With a wince, she accepts his hand. She has no idea where they are, or how Fakir found her, but she's just so thankful that she's not alone anymore...
She shakily gets to her feet and looks up at him, not noticing that he doesn't have his collar. And she gives him a wide grin.]]
Fakir! I knew you'd find me soon!

[ He blinks, letting go of her hand once she's standing up properly again.
Could this be a different one? He's not sure. She was older, like he remembered. But this place could be playing another trick on him... ]
Did you get lost looking for the Opera house, or what?

[[Okay, now she's just confused.]]
...Where's Rue? Did something happen while I was gone or something? I didn't mean to get lost again, I promise! It hasn't been too long, right? I mean...are you...?
[[She glances away, tugging at the yellow bow.]]

[ His eyes wander to the yellow ribbon as she tugs at it, his lips pulling into a frown.
Since when did she wear something like that? Was she trying to be 'fashionable' or something ridiculous like that? ]
Rue is still here. And things have been... fine, I guess.
[ He pauses briefly. ]
Am I what?

...I'm glad Rue's still here--! W-Well, not that I want her to stay in a place like this, but...n-nevermind, I don't really get what I'm saying.
[[She keeps her gaze away from him, tugging at the bow once more.]]
I-I think I was gone for a long time and it must've been hard for you since it's been a while since we--th-that is, I-I hope you got help and y-you're not in pain or anything like that...
It's not...too tight right now, is it?

...It hasn't--I mean, don't worry, idiot.
And is what too tight? You're not making any sense.

[ The other Rue had mentioned them. He had no idea what she was talking about, but he had a bad feeling.
At least she didn't seem to be wearing anything like a collar. Maybe he was worrying too much about it.
Nonetheless, he swallowed before continuing. ]
What so you mean 'collars'?

[[...How did Fakir forget something as important as that???]]
These things!
[[She tugs at the bow once more.]]
You didn't forget about them, did you? If you forget, then it gets too painful! And you're the one who tells ME that I'm too "careless"!

THAT thing was a collar? And it hurt her?
Not even bothering with a verbal response, he closes the distance between them and immediately reaches for the bow, trying to undo it.
...Without success. ]
What the hell!? Why won't this damn thing come off?!
