[By the time Saki gets a chance to look for Inaba, she's looking... fairly worn out.
What a horrible day.]
Oh... Inaba, there you are. Is now a good time?

I'd like to hear about those past instances, if you could.
In that case, I'll go with you.
[Completely casual.]
[Completely casual.]
The island, or whatever you thought was similar to this scenario.
[That seems like the most important right now.]
[That seems like the most important right now.]
Understood.
[And she'll just look at Inaba expectantly.]

So.
Basically a bunch of us went on a mission to a 'Resort' in order to extract two of the Agents. One of them was Gabe, the other was named Ichigo. You might have heard of him. Anyway, we were also there to investigate the site. Gabe kind of got stuck in the 'brain' of the Resort -- later named the Hotel -- and we had to extract them?
And also we played a "life or death game of mafia with monsters".

Gabe... the same one that was overseeing us before Dazai got here?
[There's a lot in those few sentences alone, but unfortunately, she's from a thousand years into the future, so:]
And what's... a game of mafia?

And what's... a game of mafia?
Yes.
[ She nods. And oh-- guess she has to explain this, huh. ]
And well-- there's two groups. The 'mafia' and the 'villagers', along with 'nights'. During 'nights', the mafia chooses someone to kill and then, well.
They kill them. Then you have a trial and choose someone to off. That's the basics.

...I see.
[Not liking any of this, but it's not like she can just stop the conversation here. There's no way to escape the current problem.
All they can do is face it head on.]
So that game is what you were comparing this to.

[She crosses her arms, thinking this over.]
We can't rely on new gigai if they really just meant for us to die in the first place, though...

I agree.
[ Not to mention that she has dislikes: gigai bodies on her list. ]
Although there is one thing. I don't know if anyone else in our group know it, but dying and not getting revived into a new gigai body is one of the few ways to go back to your world. Someone might take advantage of that out of 'kindness'.

[And just like that, her thoughts come screeching to a halt.]
...What?
...What?
[This is... both a game changer, and not, because there's no way Saki could do such a thing. But...]
Inaba...
Is that... something you wish for?
Inaba...

[Saki releases a breath she didn't realize she was holding.]
...Good. I'm glad. And... I hope you don't feel like doing that in the future, either.
[She hasn't known Inaba for long, but the thought of taking their own life just dredges up too many sad memories.]

That's good. [...Is all she can do just repeating that, over and over?] If... you ever think about it again- could you please talk to me?
