Ok, I’ll say it again.
So much information.
And so many new questions.

Not sure if that’s supposed to be encouraging, depressing, or traumatizing, though I think Monty manages to pull off mostly just being annoying….something about stalling and a digression from what he’d really rather know.

That, and he has no reason to assume Monty will give an honest answer. While I highly doubt “sold for a mediocre lunch” would be said or expected to be taken seriously by either of them…..again, there’s probably topics he’d consider more useful. Like convenient exits, how to be sure to be rid of Monty, ~~if undoing anything that he’s done to Agatha is even plausible~~…. nevermind this is this group we’re talking about here. Plausible is a guarantee and impossible means….what, half an hour?

  45 minutes tops for an absolutely impossible task. I’m also very curious what Monty thinks he can do with Phin if he ever manages to get rid of Ulrich. She’s automatically immune to any toxins he has and she LITERALLY shapes reality to suit her desires.

And as always, the few questions that get answers raise even more questions! It’s just enough to make the story progress for the reader, but almost never enough to start fitting more than a few small pieces of the vast puzzle into place. 😣

Dang it Aria! We need more information!!!!

Ooh hey Ulrich’s flower pin is like the ones that were in the shop a while ago, I didn’t notice it before

So many questions, but what I really want to know is what the purple and green in Monty’s dialogue boxes mean, for the life of me I can’t figure out any sort of connection between the moments where the colour changes?? Anyway as always I’m just havin a great time reading and hoping some things will make sense eventually 😀

  Ye! I took them down because I only sold a couple and resin pins are pretty intensive to make. Enamel pins would be cooler but I don’t think we’ve got quite enough clout for a kickstarter lol
  
  A few folks have asked me about that so I’ll just put it out there that it doesn’t have anything to do with what’s being said! Monty’s synthetic faculties down here aren’t very advanced, we’re basically hearing him through a shitty old radio so the sound is artificial and sort of run through a flanger/phaser. I wanted to make it clear that his voice was Weird and sort of grating against the dark quiet atmosphere in this room and my synesthesia usually picks those effects up in bright vaporwave-y colors, so that’s what I used.
  
  It took me a minute to find an easy example of this on youtube and I 100% didn’t watch this entire video BUT there’s like 20 seconds here that illustrate it okay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx_L8FTJB4M&t=4m50s
