[with a frown]

That's what we were able to do last time... I kind of wonder if the fact that we were so successful means she decided to split us up entirely for this one.

Yeah. I wouldn't say it happens very often, but - more often than it should, for sure. This is the second time there's been a chance people could die, I think, and we've been here just shy of a month and a half.

...She's horrible.

[his voice is serious, and his expression grows more severe for a second]

We've been looking for a way to stop her, but we haven't found it yet.

[nodding]

We don't exactly have a plan yet, but... I'm sure once we do, it's going to take all of us working together.

...I think you're going to fit in here pretty well.

Yeah. You seem like you care about what's most important... Helping people, right?

Well - I'm really glad to hear that. If the pattern holds, the next one should be a lot less dangerous, so... Hopefully we can all help in a less dangerous way next time.

Let's see... There was one where we had to share feelings and thoughts and memories with each other, that one was pretty cool. I missed one about dating which I am totally cool with having missed, there was one about lying to each other, one about playing something called bingo with different tasks on it that we had to do together...

[he nods, looking a little uncomfortable at the idea himself]

Hopefully we won't get a repeat of that one, it did not sound awesome. The others have been pretty nice, though, other than the lying one... But even that one was pretty harmless in the end.

We were allowed to set the record straight after it was over, at least, so... Better than the alternative.

Yeah. So... Hopefully you'll be able to get to know the rest of the teams here once the next game comes around.

Good.

[there's a small pause, before:]

Well, regardless of timing... Welcome to Kraken.

Then I'll say the same.

[with a firm nod]

We'll get through this together, no matter what.
