[ ... they seem a little relieved? hm ]

Good to know.

[chanteuser]

[ wolf is a good ]

[ hm she points at their mask ]

Have you taken that off for anyone — team or not?

[retellers]

[ BECKS DID YOU EVER EVEN SLEEP ]

... Why?

[chanteuser]

[ I’M HALF ASLEEP NOW IT’S OKAY I’M DOING MY best i just couldn’t doze off sobs ]

I’m just curious. I don’t need to know who, just if you’ve been comfortable enough with some people to.

[ becks voice: but i, becks, want at least three more unmasks and i honger ]

[retellers]

[ GO TO BED ]

... Yeah, I guess. It's not that big of a deal.

[chanteuser]

[ i’ll go to sleep if wolf takes off their mask ]

Oh, really?

Would you let me see your face?

[retellers]

... It's not that little of a deal, either.

[ no. ]

[chanteuser]

[ BOOOOOOOO ]

Yeah, that sounds more like it. I got the impression it wasn’t just something you did at the drop of a hat.

[retellers]

[ ... huffs ]

Why do you guys care so much about what we look like, anyway?

[chanteuser]

I can’t really speak for everyone, but...

[ a lot of reasons ]

It’s nice to talk to you all face to face at the same level. I think some people forget that you’re all going through a lot, just like us. And you’re all just people around my age. Or maybe some of you are younger.

We’re all just people. Not, y’know... kidnapped people and the mysterious people watching over them.

[retellers]

[ ... hmmm. wolf crosses their arms ]

We're all people, but the problem'll stay. We're not on the same level. You guys are directly in the line of fire, like it or not. Can't blame anyone for not caring if there are hurt feelings when they're being killed.

[chanteuser]

Worrying about people's fundamental. If you lose that then... I don't know. I think you lose yourself as well.

Besides, I'm not sure you can stop all of us from worrying if we want to.

[retellers]

Definitely can't. I've tried.

[ so dryly. ]

[chanteuser]

There you go then. [ haha! suffer. ]

[retellers]

[ they do. and they sigh. ]

[chanteuser]

[ she just smiles. ]

It's fine.

Do you enjoy talking with us?

[retellers]

Enjoy's a strong word. [ dryly ] Depends on who, I guess.

[chanteuser]

[ she chuckles at that. ]

That sounds like there's some people you do like talking with, at least. That's good to know.

[retellers]

They grew on me. Like weeds.

[chanteuser]

Weeds can be nice.

[retellers]

They're still weeds.

[chanteuser]

[ she pokes his shoulder ]

If they're your team, be nice to them.

[retellers]

[ ... :T ]

I'm not mean.

[chanteuser]

You're not. [ she's seen mean, and this is not it. ] But sometimes people don't read other people well.

[retellers]

How's that my problem?

[ wolf: im not mean
Also wolf: this ]
