This uneasy feeling is weighing on me / I forced down my heart’s desires that I wanted to follow so I wouldn’t spit them out / They built up inside my chest, like dregs, and clouded me.

[ It's an interesting response, and Ranger isn't disappointed by it. The way people cope when faced with what should be a traumatic occurrence says something about them. Amami is reactive enough that it's out of step with his normal behavior. ]

... Ahahha, sounds to me like you could've done worse.

[ He stares for a couple seconds, trying to discern something, before shrugging. ]

Think there's a point to it aside from trying to spook anyone stupid enough to push the button? Seems weird to go through all that effort for a whole lotta nothing.

[ Then again, maybe it wasn't much effort? Who knows. Either way, it seems like a waste of space.

He shakes his head. ]

... Hm, guess this isn't really the time to speculate about stuff like that, huh?

( it's a good question, and not one amami had been able to consider for too long before more pressing matters stole his attention away. it's hard to find a logical reason why the school would manifest something like that, especially when amami knows that it's capable of not being quite so cruel, but...

it really isn't the time now, is it? a smile spreads across amami's face, and he'll offer up a shrug. )

It might be better to spend our time speculating about how we'll get back to the school with the elevator. We can work out anything else from there.

( one step at a time. )

[rearranger]

[ He nods in agreement. There's more important things to focus on, and Ranger supposes they should both resume focusing on that. ]

Right. Have you been able to figure anything out?

[sisters]

No, not yet... If this place is some kind of puzzle, it's a tough one. ( and amami's never been good at escape rooms. )

I'm starting to run out of places to look, to be honest with you. I know there has to be some way out, but knowing where to start looking is...

( hm. trailing off with a sigh, amami glances to ranger, expectant. )

How about you? Anything new turn up?

[rearranger]

[ Ranger shakes his head. ]

Nope. I've found a couple things, but nothing related to getting out of here. I don't think there's anything in this room either... Honestly, I think we're just missing something in one of the spots we've already been to.

[ The science room comes to mind. There's just too many oddities. He shakes his head. ]

Well, I guess we're not gonna find the answer standing around talking about it though. I cn let you know if I think of anywhere else to check.
