You know, this is starting to get real old. I've had it up to here with everyone avoiding me lately. Just cut it out already, would you? It ain't funny anymore. Believe me, I know funny.

I mean it, guys! This is where I put my foot down. Well, maybe not there. The floors kinda dirty in that spot but I'm putting it HERE! My foot. Down. So you better fess up.

...

Unless... Unless you're really not here anymore. And everyone already went home. And I'm the only one left! No, that can't be it. I can't be the last one here, can I?

... CAN I?!

It must be so big! I've never heard tell of a castle that big before! How does it all fit? How many rooms are there? How many floors? Is there a queen? Or a king?

( zerg rush of questions is go )

[cowardly_hero]

Uhhh.... I don't- Well, it's kind of- The details are a little lackin'.

[redrepels]

Oh.

( ...well then. )

Oh well! Have you explored the whole thing yet?

[cowardly_hero]

Not quite. I don't think anyone has.

[redrepels]

Then it's still a mystery. Are people exploring?

[cowardly_hero]

I think so... I ain't heard too much about the floors for awhile now.

[redrepels]

Is it that difficult to climb?

[cowardly_hero]

If you consider the Organization and their monsters difficult, yeah. I'd say so.

[redrepels]

The what? Organization of what?

[cowardly_hero]

Organization of jerks. 'Nobodies' they call themselves.

[redrepels]

Nobody...?

That's odd, I thought 'nobody' meant, well, nothing sort of... Like, non existent.

[cowardly_hero]

Probably stands for their non existent hearts.

[redrepels]

( she's quiet a moment )




But how do they live with no heart...?

[cowardly_hero]

Beats me. I'm a meerkat, not a doctor.

[redrepels]

Perhaps they're undead...

[cowardly_hero]

Wouldn't that mean they were alive?

[redrepels]

They weren't ever!?

[cowardly_hero]

Uh... I think so?

[redrepels]

Then at some point they must have had a heart, don't you think?
