So you live here. You're from this world. Is that what you're saying?
[ dubious. ]
[ dubious. ]
You weren't born here, though.
[ it's a guess, but he sounds confident. ]

I'm not in the mood. Were you or weren't you?
[after feeding the blue bunny, it zips off past hikage and out the door, bounding its way across the grounds. hikage will have to be quick to keep up, but the bunny will lead him to the camp store. there, he will find winter rearranging items on the shelves. they crouch down to scoop the bunny up once they notice it, and then glance at hikage.]
Uh, it's almost closing time. [let's be real, ikea furniture takes a while.] But what's up?

You're still here, so it doesn't matter.
[ he picked this one because they seem the least irritating so far - plus, they've got blood on their hands. Maybe they feel guilty now that they've been involved. It's a potential vulnerability, provided the directors aren't lying bold-faced at all hours. ]
Is what that girl said about "team victories" the truth? [ a beat. ] Whether or not I believe you is another question. I'm just here to listen to whatever your reply is.

Well, aren't you a charmer?
[dryly. they turn back to the shelves, reaching over to fix something that's currently crooked.]
Mmm... I wasn't peeping in on your meeting. If it's what I think it is, though, yes. But if you're not going to believe us, why bother with the interrogation? Seems like a major waste of time.

I'm choosing what to believe. As far as I'm concerned, the only trustworthy ones here are Belph and Steph. But I need information.
[ anyway. ]
How does that work...? That purple guy hasn't given me any reason to fight for him.

Fine.
[ this one seems less annoying. or maybe it's because he didn't come see WW first with metaphorical guns blazing. maybe!! ]
Let's start with this. Why are the three of you on separate teams in the first place?

Let's start with this. Why are the three of you on separate teams in the first place?
Sure. And now, it just happens to be linked to whether or not we can leave. [ he sounds dubious. ] Why is that?
That doesn't explain anything, and you know it. Give me more details.
Don't talk down to me. [ gooseknife ] Why does it have to be that way? Who decided that?
If you think I'm talking down to you, I don't think this conversation is going to go well. [dryly.] It's not a who. It's, um... Well, when you all arrived here, you brought remnants of your last experiences. Like stepping on a puddle of mud and forgetting to leave your shoes outside. You obviously didn't mean to, but...
[ let him have his impotent rage, mom
but hey, that's an actual answer! kind of. he glances down at his scrunchie. ]

[the gray rabbit will lead hikage onward to the camp store! black shadows is manning the counter today, but it seems they have some privacy for now. their rabbit finds a spot to flop on the floor comfortably, and black shadows gives hikage a polite nod.]
Hello. Believe we have not spoken. Assistance needed?

[ ok. he's going to try and be diplomatic this time... he takes a deep breath, running a hand through his hair. ]
... I just want some answers. I'm not getting anywhere. [ a beat. ] Maybe you can help me more than the other two.
