[waving]

Hey. Are you alright...?

[guestservices]

... It seems that it'll be a difficult night for most. But perhaps it's unsurprising, that this would happen sooner or later.

[agleam]

[he frowns at that, but it's not directed at cetus.]

I don't know about that. If we had tried a little harder...

[he sighs.]

[guestservices]

Do you feel as though you weren't putting in enough effort?

[their tone is a sincere question.]

[agleam]

I don't know. I was kind of out of it today, but I'm not sure that's an excuse.

[cries in missing trial]

[guestservices]

[me already forgetting]

You were buried yesterday, correct? ... While people like to believe that willpower overcomes all, the reality is that we are very much constrained by physical limits.

[agleam]

On Thursday night, yeah...

[speaking of:]

Do you have any idea why that's been happening?

[guestservices]

[a hum]

Have you asked around?

[agleam]

Does that mean somebody out there knows?

[guestservices]

I don't know, but I imagine it wouldn't hurt to hear people's theories on it.

[agleam]

Right. So you're not sure what it means, either?

[guestservices]

Mm. There are many things in the hotel that have nothing to do with me.
