You might be overthinking it. In any case, the task is set, so your only choices are to complete it or not.

[shaft]

Alright, no wiggle room... I don't need to report back, do I? You just know?

[guestservices]

You won't need to report back.

[but do drop the mods an ooc note if you do!]

[shaft]

Okay.

[ ... ]

You seem rather stoic in the face of everything that happened.

[guestservices]

Would you prefer that I panic?

[shaft]

No, but I'm a little jealous of your nerves of steel.

[guestservices]

Hm...

[idly, they cross their arms.]

Emotions are a part of being alive. Being calm is good, but there's no shame in the feelings you experience on reflex.

[shaft]

...

Are you comforting me?

[guestservices]

I'm just stating my opinion.

[shaft]

Mhm. [ SOFTIE ] Do you have any questions?

[guestservices]

About what?

[shaft]

What happened today.

[guestservices]

Sure. What happened today?

[shaft]

They were taken to an alternate dimension pocket of warped time and space, and forced to go through a journey before returning here.

[guestservices]

I... see. It sounded as though this is something common to you?

[shaft]

Two groups, every week. In various states of physical and mental disrepair.

[ He rubs his head. ]

Think we should revisit having an infirmary available?

[guestservices]

I believe that's what the first aid kits in the gift shop are for, if our healing doesn't suffice.

[shaft]

Well, that's... not free.

[guestservices]

Well... it's what you've been given, I'm afraid.

[shaft]

We'll have to make do then.

If you have any other questions about it all, feel free to ask. Or how these things go... Or even yourself.

[guestservices]

I'm not sure what questions I would have on myself?

[shaft]

You don't have any questions about whether you belong here?

[guestservices]

... Are you under the impression I have amnesia, or something...?

[shaft]

[ yeah ]

... You don't??

[guestservices]

You don't think I'd be a little more distressed if I was a blank slate?
