1.

So what did you see back then, Lieutenant Schmertz? Can you describe it?

It's... something. I can imagine it very clearly even now. I feel really stupid to never noticing it now. It's like seeing a magic eye picture. After you know how to see it, it's so obvious. But to describe it... How can you describe the colour red? How can you describe sound to a deaf man?

My notes told me that you're complaining about unseen monsters in base. Do you still see them?

...yes. And monsters are the least annoying thing I see.

One last thing....

*Eliene grabs Walt's bandaged arm and unravel the bandages.*

*The eyes. They're still there.*

(Talk to either Walt or Eliene?)

2.

The mysterious being is sitting in the cafetaria. After learning the purpose of the cafetaria, it seems to spend most of its time there now.

Currently it's facing a plate of chocolate pudding. It sniffs the pudding for a long time, clearly enjoying the smell...

Before pouring mayonaise, ketchup, and finally sprinkling it with peppers.

3.When not in the cafetaria, it sits in a corner in the hangar. Apparently it got it hand in some junks and a box of tools, and it's now playing with them, while watching the coming and going of the hangar. It's apparently building something?

Feeling better, Lieutenant?

Pretty much. Though, I think feeling used to these things is a better description.

I'm not sure that sounds like an improvement.

Hey, every little thing helps!

Coming from you, that isn't reassuring or comforting.

... What are you doing?

[This is not a cause for alarm yet, is it? Setsuko is not sure herself.]

What are they doing?

Good question. Who's "they"?

Those people.

*It points at the mechanics*

Edited 2014-09-20 16:26 (UTC)

Oh, them? They repair our things if they're broken, and keep them in good condition. It's a very responsible job.

Do you know what I'm talking about?

[For some reason, Setsuko acts like she's talking to a small child.]

What a pleasant surprise. Your taste in food is unexpectedly good.

[Said while holding a cookie covered in mustard.]

*The mysterious being sniffs the pudding.*

Food is great!

Edited 2014-09-19 16:37 (UTC)

Yes. A very accurate observation.

Did you have any food before you emerged in this world?

No... nothing.

Were you hungry?

[Kagura is on the other side of the room, immobile as a chunk of metal, observing very carefully what the creature is doing and what it is building]

For now, the mysterious being is building a box of scraps from a box of scraps and glue. At first, you didn't notice anything strange. But then you realizes something. The number of scraps it's using to build the box of scraps is far too much compared to the size of box it's building.

[Kagura wordlessly increases the zoom to focus on the box. Is it using too much scrap because it's also filling it on the inside (making a cube rather than a box), or are pieces simply not fitting there by volume but going in anyway?]

*It hums as it continues working. More and more things enter the box. It's obvious now that those things shouldn't fit there by volume.*

I thought the eyes would disappear eventually...

That would be too easy, wouldn't it?

But on the other hand... Isn't it because of them that you can kill those monsters for good now?

...maybe.

They're still there?

I'd thought that after... that being's creation, they would've gone away.
