[As the last Luvdisc retreats for the time being, Flowey can't help but feel like he lost their little bet on who could wrack up more kills KOs. But it was worth it to see what this newcomer could really do-- and the conversation has been pretty interesting. Maybe she won't be like the others who just give up.]

And unless we find it, we're all going to succumb to it! But no pressure or anything! [He sure sounds chipper.]

... Ribombee is the shadiest one of the guild leaders. The other two are just as clueless as we are. [That's potentially even scarier than if they were malicious and trying to stop them from figuring out how to break the cycle.] But that doesn't mean we don't have some fierce opposition! But you've definitely shown me that you're more than able to handle yourself. I think you'll do just fine.

You think Ribombee knows more than he lets on?

[It is not Robin's first time working for someone shady, but she would have assumed it was the haunted teapot who lives in comparative opulence. But if all of the guilds in actuality do have similar resources, the Cheris are the ones where it is least obvious where those resources are going. The Archives are obvious, but the mining operation in the Spire requires resources too.]

I don't think. I know. [... he just can't prove it.] He does have the city in mind, I'll give him that, but he seems to think the ends justify the means. He doesn't hesitate to play favorites and leave the rest of us behind. That's why I've been trying to earn his trust. [Right now, the best evidence he has is "takes one to know one."]

Perhaps we should be looking outside of guild leadership.

[Hiding information for the greater good is a lie told by leaders to stay in power.]

Thank you, Flowey. I appreciate you trusting me with this.

[That's what he's been saying! But Akechi thinks he's too paranoid. He's just a big guildmaster's pet for Mightyena, though.

... He'll keep that tidbit to himself for now, though. He doesn't want to color her impressions of the others just yet.]

Thank you for helping keep our beach clean, hee hee!
