Actually, it was mostly Jacob. He's a friend of yours, he said? He carried you on his back and I helped to make sure you didn't slip or anything. You fell asleep on the bar.

You should probably thank him - I never could have gotten you home by myself.

... Yes, I'll do that.

[Feeling bad for making him carry her, sob.]

...

[She's not sure about to to say anymore.]

He's a nice guy, and really didn't seem to mind much.

Well, I wanted to go and do some cooking. I'll bring some of what I make by your room later, alright? If you want it.

... Sure. The doctor said I'll need more nutrients, but I don't think orange juice is enough.

I think he's right. That must have been a shock to your system, after all.

So, apart from the drinking and stuff, did you enjoy going out? The parts you do remember, at least?

...

Yes, I did. Roxy-san was... kind of fun to hang out with.

She is a lot of fuin, isn't she? She even got me to dance a little!

The reason I ask is because there's a party coming up. The Gods announced it the other day. I was wondering, if you didn't have other plans with other friends, maybe we could go?

.....It's just a suggestion and if you would rather not I completely understand. But I think we could maybe have some fun. If you want. No pressure.

[Oh, that announcement... she remembers it. Hanako couldn't decide whether to go to that party or just stay in the House. Now that Hisao brings it up...]

I don't know... I have Nashi here, I don't think she's suitable to bring at a party. [She won't mention about her own anxiety issues, he knows them already.]

Ahh, that's true. Well, then, we'll have some dinner in the house and maybe play a couple of games of chess, in that case. That will be plenty of fun too.

... I... don't know about that, either. It's not that I don't want to go...

Oh. Well. What DO you want to do?

[He's kind of confused now.]

I said I don't know...

[Nope she ain't gonna help him there]

Oh. Um. Well. When you decide, let me know, alright? I'll stick with you either way.

Were you planning on going on the expedition to see the old hospital? I think I might go and check that out.

Oh no- no, I'd... rather not go there. It sounds scary and- uh... not a good idea.

Ah, OK. Well, I'll tell you what it's like if I do decide to go. I think it sounds interesting - I mean, ever since getting here I've wanted to find out more about this place.

... If you do, please be careful.

Come on, Hanako. I'm hardly going to be jumping around in the rafters or poking at rabid animals with my fingers. I'll be fine. You're not going to worry too much, are you?

Uh, that's still an unexplored area... who knows what dangers are there? You can never be too sure...

Not completely unexplored. People found the hospital, after all, so we know it's at least sort of safe to go there.

If you're too worried, I'll stay. I don't want to be selfish and make you fret. I can always find out about it by asking the people who go and then come back.

I just said you have to be careful, still... I didn't say you're not allowed to go...

I know you didn't, but I'm offering to stay if you want me to. It's not a matter of being 'allowed' to do anything - But I don't want to think of worrying you either. That would be selfish.

It would be selfish of me to let my worry stop you, though...

....well, if we keep talking about which is the more selfish thing to do, we'll be here all night going in circles, Hanako. Just answer this one question for me - would you feel better if I stayed?

I would- but that's not the point...

[She sighs, frustrated.]

You shouldn't depend on my mood. That's not...how it works. I'll only feel bad if you refrained from doing something because it would... upset me.

OK. Fine. I don't want to argue about this, so, I'll go. And I promise to be very careful and not get hurt, alright? It seems like a lot of people are going to be there, so, if anything DOES happen, help won't be far away.

So try not to worry too much. If I find anything interesting, I'll send it to you in a video message. Sound good?
