Uh, yeah, she's definitely not. Kazunari said everyone's arrived at the same time during other weeks, so we're all a little worried.

[guestservices]

... Give it some time, maybe...? Perhaps there's simply a delay with her arrival.

[agleam]

Can you think of a reason why that might happen? But - either way, I will.

[guestservices]

I'm not too sure. Sometimes the hotel just does odd things, so it might be that.

[agleam]

Okay. But it doesn't sound like you think it's anything to worry about, then?

[guestservices]

I probably wouldn't fret too much. It hasn't been a full day yet.

[agleam]

Okay.

[...]

By the way - I'm really glad we can still talk to you guys now that we're here. I was worried that wouldn't be the case.

[guestservices]

It is nice. I hope it's not too lonely over there... current issues aside.

[agleam]

Yeah... I mean, not that I'm glad there are other people here given the implications of that fact, but - you know.

[guestservices]

Mm. You have to look on what bright sides you can, I think.

[agleam]

Right. Until I can get back to everyone else, it's a good idea to be optimistic.

[guestservices]

As determined as ever, I see.

[agleam]

I mean, I was angry before, but now I'm really angry, so I feel like I'm probably even more determined?

[he says, cheerfully,]

[guestservices]

Anger isn't bad, at least. As long as you know how to control it, and you don't let it blind you.

[agleam]

Yeah, no, it's definitely the healthy and good kind, don't worry.

[guestservices]

That's good. Just make sure that it's not pointing you towards outcomes that you're already biased towards, rather than working with the pieces you actually have.

[agleam]

[tilting his head]

How do you mean?

[guestservices]

Mm... what I've noticed about those who wield righteous anger is—sometimes, it traps you into only seeing the paths you wanted to see, to begin with. So, just remember to keep an open mind.

[agleam]

Is there a particular path you think I should not be focusing on...?

[guestservices]

Well, I can't really say where the future leads. But keep in mind that there are some things you can't take back once you do them [looks at releasing qi rong] so you should probably think twice before you do anything drastic.

[agleam]

...Yes, I see what you mean.

[they've made errors it's fine]

[guestservices]

[it's... probably fine...]

Poke at what you can. Some of the other staff are less than pleased, but I can't really fault you too much for that...

But while it's not an issue to provoke someone like Virgo, you should probably ruminate on it further before doing anything that would earn the ire of, say, the Nightman.

[agleam]

You can probably fault us a little. It's okay.

[mistakes were made]

Yeah. Not exactly itching to make him too angry just yet.

[guestservices]

You can probably take some of your frustrations out on whatever's causing you problems over on that side, instead.

[go beat up a cannibal]

[agleam]

Thaaaat would definitely not end well for me, but I'll help everyone else as much as I can!
