Rosette was just increasingly annoyed with the boy in front of her. She didn't want the conflict, at all, but it was proving necessary. There was no way she was letting her guard down around him, now, especially not with him keeping his so firmly up.

"There are weird monsters and things at night." she snapped, at his demand for an explanation. "And in case you're wondering, I have no idea how you got here."

...monsters? Did this girl think he was a child? "Do not be foolish." Sousuke replied, his tone slightly colder than it had been before, "Monsters are a figment of the imagination. There are no such things." Really, monsters, come on. It would take a better lie than that to throw him off.

Her second statement made him wary, though. He kept his eyes on hers for a few moments. From her way of speaking, her mannerisms, and her own expression...she didn't seem to be lying. "...if you knew that I would ask such a thing," he frowned, "then either you arrived in a similarly unusual fashion, or know others who have. Correct?"

"A lot of people would say that." she replied casually enough, "I exterminate and exorcise demons and monsters for a living, though." despite the simple and casual tone, the words probably still carried something of an 'I told you so~' to them.

She nodded at the question, though, expression and tone serious again. "Apparently that's how everyone shows up, actually." she said, looking him over again. "So I figured you wouldn't be any sort of exception."

Sousuke's expression lost its coldness and hostility for a moment, going perfectly blank. Did she just say what he thought she said? Exterminating demons and monsters for a living? No, that was not possible; this girl was clearly mentally unbalanced to believe in such things. It would certainly explain her strange attire, in any event. And she was pointing a gun at him, too; he'd need to be a hundred times more careful than before. "...I...see." he replied after a moment, lowering his gun. Not that he trusted her any more, but if she was crazy he didn't want to come off as aggressive anymore.

"Everybody arrives here by tripping and falling?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. That didn't make sense either. Instantaneous teleportation was a military impossibility...unless someone here was using Black Technology? That could explain the situation. "Then who is responsible for bringing me here?"

Rosette wasn't sure how to take the expression on the boy's face as he looked at her - it wasn't particularly expressive, no, but it was still a change from before. She was a bit surprised by him lowering his gun, though, and it showed - she hesitated a moment, before lowering his, if only slightly. She was still poised to turn it back on him at any moment, though, not trusting the sudden change of heart that much.

"Something like that." she said, with a disinterested sort of shrug. "I've only talked to a few people about it, but that seems to be the case." she frowned at the last question, though. "...no idea. I don't think anyone really knows."
