[The journal flicks on to record a frustrated Ratatosk. ... Or is he? He's definitely got Ratatosk's appearance and loud mouth, but something seems a bit off.]

Figures they'd turn me into him. Those damned Malnosso are so predictable. As if there weren't enough people running around with this appearance, already.

[Oh dear sweet Martel, this has to be a bad dream.]

... R-Richter, is that you?

[Voice]

[ratatosk_knight]

Not yet, no. With any luck it will hit me today or tomorrow.

[judge_evening]

Sarcasm really isn't your thing.

[Voice]

[ratatosk_knight]

... it was that obvious?

[Voice]

[judge_evening]

It was hard not to notice.

[Voice]

[ratatosk_knight]

You thought it was funny last time. You even laughed.

[Voice]

[judge_evening]

There's a time and place for witty sarcasm. This isn't it.

[He reflexively reaches up to push his glasses further up his nose, but... Damn, they aren't there anymore. Fail.]

[Voice]

[ratatosk_knight]

Sorry.

[Even though he's trying to remind himself that he's not Ratatosk - but he is really, isn't he - this is still doing a number on his self-esteem.]

Oh. Whoops.

I, um... I'll sleep downstairs for the rest of the week.

[Voice]

[judge_evening]

If that makes you feel more at ease.

[Voice]

[ratatosk_knight]

It would just be weird sharing a bed with you while you're like this.

[Voice]

[judge_evening]

Understandable.

[Voice]

[ratatosk_knight]

But... you're still you, right? Even though you look like Ratatosk?

[Voice]

[judge_evening]

You tell me.

[Voice]

[ratatosk_knight]

...

You're not usually this mean.
