don't wait for a knight in shinin' armor, your savior's reflected in the mirror

[That sure was a fucking thing. That execution was a fucking thing. Those secrets are a fucking thing.

Cabanela retreats to his room, but not for all that long. Everyone will get a note eventually, written in very neat handwriting

I do not plan on bowing down to threats and intimidation. If you did not act, it means you were, like me, aware of the risk, but decided against it. Your reasons are entirely your own.

Join me in the dining room if you agree enough is enough, and that you won't acquiesce to threats. I don't plan to let this stop me, and neither should you.

In the dining room itself, Cabanela has set up coffee and tea for those who want it-- there's no food, because to be honest, he doesn't know how to cook. Two more candles have been lit-- he wasn't really sure what to do about the whole... parasite thing... so Fern's candle will have to make due.]

That sounds like a fitting job for you. Being able to see so many animals, you must love it a lot.

[That's an incidental comment, on the way to this next question. If Hibiki regularly visits this wildlife reserve, she's probably seen a lot of it, right?]

Do they often have animals offsite?

[brandnewday]

I do! That's why the job's so important to me, and...hmm.

[She nods.]

The wildlife refuge is pretty big, and sometimes I visit aquariums and stuff, too. But we always start the shoot right at the entrance with the red panda and Hamuzou.

[heritrix]

Did you do that this time?

[brandnewday]

Mm...maybe? Like I said, I'm...rememberin' the circumstances that me in the dream was thinkin' about, so it's kinda like trying to recall a memory's cousin.
