She's not looking...Now's my chance!

Ahem...If there are any dashing heroes out there who feel like rescuing poor little me from a cruel tyrant, I'm waiting! Yes, I'm in the clutches of an evil, abusive witch. She makes me work nonstop, for days at a time, until I just can't go on...She thinks slapping a little duct tape on me will make everything

Rita?

...What are you going to do to them?

[stargathering]

[ Horror ] --That's disgusting! You can't do that here!

[blastiafreak]

It's just science, you know! There's nothing disgusting about it!

Whatever, I'll do what I want.

[stargathering]

No, you won't! This isn't your world where you can just reduce subjects to parts and materials!

[blastiafreak]

[So confused. And irritated.] I know this isn't my world, but the basic principles work similarly enough! There's no reason I should use them any differently!

[stargathering]

You don't see anything wrong with those principles?! What if you were in their place?

[blastiafreak]

[Starting to think Tyr's a weirdo now.] Me? As a test subject? Please, like that would ever happen!

[stargathering]

You don't consider how they feel? How can you be that cold?!

[blastiafreak]

If you're going to be all weird on me, then just drop it. They don't have any feelings.

[stargathering]

Don't be so entitled! Everything that's alive can suffer and feel pain.

[blastiafreak]

I don't know if you're cursed or what, but there's no reason to go treating them like living things.

[This from the girl who personifies blastia, but. Details.]

[stargathering]

You're the one that must be cursed. They spoke, Rita. They're alive enough.

[blastiafreak]

Wha...Nobody said anything! You're hearing things.

[But since everyone keeps telling her they heard something, she is starting to think there's something up.]

[stargathering]

Don't try to deny it!

[blastiafreak]

I'm not denying anything! If you heard them so clearly, what did they say?

[stargathering]

Something about wanted to be saved because you work them to the bone, burn them, and cover their wounds with tape.
