G28(2)Gr G28||m_va_welcome_to_va11_hall_a:Enjoy the present day and the present time! +Good South Hemisphere, er... Wait—
Dorothy(6)Dorothy||:FINALLY! DOROTHY HAS RETURNED TO VALHALLA!
Dorothy(4)Dorothy||:Huh? Weren't you that girl from earlier...
G28(2)Gr G28||:Ahaha, we meet again, Prime Minister Dorothy! +That's right, my other part time job is being a bartender here. It really is an honor to be able to meet you twice in just three hours— +Uh...and you are...
Stella(0)Stella||:I'm Stella Hoshii. Sorry about the mess I made earlier.
G28(2)Gr G28||:Ah, don't worry about it. There's an even bigger mess now.
Stella(0)Stella||:Sei, you told me there were no sexily-dressed bartenders here...
Sei(2)Sei||:Jill was the one bartending when I was here previously... +She's a human with a figure that's...very different from this Doll.
G28(2)Gr G28||:Hehe, the boss won't be happy to hear that, although you're telling the truth. +I'm Gr G28, but everyone in the bar likes to call me Gillian. I forgot who was the first one to call me by that name, but you can just use that name for me when I'm bartending.
Sei(2)Sei||:...It sounds like a puppy's name.
Dorothy(4)Dorothy||:How are you guys still open even when all of Griffin City is in chaos?
G28(2)Gr G28||:Well, the boss once said, "If the end of the world comes for us, then the bar is the one place that must exist." +What would you like to drink?
Dorothy(6)Dorothy||:The usual, give me a Piano Woman!
G28(2)Gr G28||:This is my first time doing this.
Dorothy(0)Dorothy||:Yeah, the boss herself always used to make drinks for me. +Now give me your first time, honey!
Stella(2)Stella||:The boss...you mean the human girl called Jill?
G28(2)Gr G28||:"Jill"? Yes. But "girl"? She's 27, you know. +Prime Minister Dorothy, your Piano Woman—
Dorothy(0)Dorothy||:Thank you!
Dorothy(4)Dorothy||:...Hm...is it me, or does this taste a little different?
G28(2)Gr G28||:Huh? I made it according to the recipe. Does the boss have some kind of secret formula for it?
Stella(2)Stella||:So, where is Miss Jill, anyway?
G28(2)Gr G28||:Ah...the boss... +She went home to take shelter. After all...it's pretty dangerous outside.
Dorothy(0)||:...Dorothy finishes her drink and presses up against Stella.
Dorothy(4)Dorothy||:I think she's lying. That's what my instincts as a woman and a Lilim are telling me.
Stella(2)Stella||:...Gr G28. +Jill's still here, isn't she?
Stella(2);G28(2)Gr G28||BGM_Empty:What... +Of course not! She went back long—
Stella(2)Stella||m_va_troubling_news<黑屏1>:Miss Gr G28, please look me in the eye.
()||<黑屏2>9:
G28(2)Gr G28||:Hm?
()||AVG_tele_disconnect:...Whum!
Stella(0)Stella||:Jill is at the back door.
Stella(0);G28(2)Gr G28||:Huh... +You...you hacked me? +I...I can't move!
Stella(2)Stella||:I'm sorry, Miss Gillian, but please stay put for five minutes. We're coming over—
Sei(3)Sei||:There's movement behind the door. Be quiet and don't alert her. Let's go over and have a listen.
()||:...The three of them press their heads to the back door. +...
()Jill||:Today...
Sei(3)Sei||:It's Jill's voice...
G28(2)Gr G28||:Uuu... I'm doomed...
()Jill||:My card readings showed me that... +A ghost would bring me tremendous change.
Stella(0)Stella||:What...?
()Jill||:The ghost...that black-haired ghost girl told me... +"Everything will begin and end here."
Dorothy(4)Dorothy||:Hey! Stella, your boobs are squishing my head!
Stella(2)Stella||:What? They are not!
Sei(3)Sei||:Quit moving around, you two!
()Jill||:I knew it! + "A Scientific Theory on the Idea of Auras" is as revolutionary as I thought! +Soon I'll bring the entire world into the occult-science singularity!
()||<黑屏1>:...Creak—!
()Dorothy & Stella & Sei||86<黑屏2>BGM_Empty:Uwah!—!
()||ClothingUp<震屏>:...The back door is suddenly forced open from the weight of the three people pressing up against it, and the rusty hinges emit an ear-piercing shriek as the door collapses to the ground.
Jill(2)Jill||m_va_every_day_is_night:Who— +Wait a minute... +Sei? Miss Stella? ...And Prime Minister Dorothy?
Dorothy(0)Dorothy||:Hi, Jill.
Sei(0)Sei||:Good Southern Hemisphere, Miss Jill. We meet again.
Jill(2)Jill||:What kind of team is this? +It looks like any two people among you have a good reason to kill the third.
Stella(0)Stella||:We're willing to explain, but that's not important. Why don't you tell us what you were doing?
Jill(4)Jill||:I...
G28(2)Gr G28||:S-She was conducting research into her occultism theories...+It's a hobby that's...not too well understood...
Jill(4)Jill||:This is science! Artificial lifeforms would never understand!
Dorothy(4)Dorothy||:Oh my...as a DFC-72 android and the last Prime Minister on Earth, it pains me to hear that. +So in the end, the last hope for the world that we did our best to find turns out to be the chuuni antics of a human friend of mine who's still wearing twin tails at the age of 27.
Jill(4)Jill||:Er... chuuni-what? +No! This is real! Listen, I can speak with ghosts! I've always been able to! She's going to show herself today, and I'm trying to summon her true form!
Sei(3)Sei||:I'm sorry, Miss Jill, but the world outside is in chaos. +The Dolls and natives are brawling with all kinds of mechs on the streets, and a White Knight deserter, a S.F. boss, and a Griffin City Prime Minister have teamed up to save the world. +I think...now isn't a good time to draw the attention of the world with your childish dreams.
Dorothy(4)Dorothy||:I'm glad to have discovered your other secret. All the best with your research into the occult, honey.
Stella(2)Stella||:Wait a minute. +There may be a connection between all of this. Let me ask a few more questions. +Miss Jill, what did that ghost look like?
Jill(2)Jill||:Uh...She had shoulder-length black hair and looked to be in her teens. +She wore a long black robe and her face was as stiff as a Doll's.
Stella(2)Stella||:What was her name?
Jill(2)Jill||:She asked me to call her Anna. +Anna Graem.
Dorothy(6)Dorothy||:Anna? Good heavens, it really is Anna!
Stella(2)Stella||:Jill, can you still see her? That ghost?
Jill(2)Jill||:I...I did as she instructed, and she said she would be officially guiding me today. +And then she vanished, and I've been trying to summon her... Maybe she might show up soon. +So what happened to Anna? +She said, "if you want to learn the truth, you will have to trust me". I don't think she's a bad person!
Dorothy(4)Dorothy||:Er... Guys...
Stella(2)Stella||:Miss Jill, you're 27 years old already; don't you think that sounded really dangerous?
Jill(2)Jill||:Growing old isn't a curse, it's an achievement! It's because I'm 27 that I'm not worried about danger. +Or are you saying...it's even more dangerous than the state of this city right now?
Dorothy(2)Dorothy||BGM_Empty:Guys! Have...have I grown taller?
Sei(3)Sei||:Grown taller? +No! Good heavens, you're floating up into the air, Dorothy!
Dorothy(2)Dorothy||:Ehhhhhh!? I-I-I-I-I'm actually flying!
Jill(3)Jill||:What's going on!? To think I'm not the only one witnessing a practical manifestation of the occult!
Stella(2)Stella||:No! It's a levitation potion! +Sei, grab onto her, or else Dorothy's going to fly off!
Sei(2)Sei||:I got you! I got you!
Stella(2)Stella||m_va_synthestitch:It was the drink... It must have been Gr G28!
()||:...Just as Stella is about to turn around—
()||<震屏>:...Bam! +...She is suddenly knocked down by something.
Sei(2)Sei||:Stella—!
Stella(2)Stella||ClothingUp:Something hit me! +Dammit, Gr G28! You hit me with your boobs!
G28(2)Gr G28||:Sorry, everyone. +Miss White Knight, you'd better not let go, otherwise Prime Minister Dorothy is going to fly off into the sky.
G28(2)Gr G28||Rope<震屏>:And you, Miss Stella, don't think you can look into my eyes again!
Stella(2)Stella||:Gwaaahhh! It's the "Walls of Jericho"!
G28(2)Gr G28||:I learned that from you from before! —Boss, now's your chance, hurry up and run!
Jill(2)Jill||:Huh?
G28(2)Gr G28||<震屏>:They're looking for Anna! Run!
Jill(2)Jill||:Uh... +But! I...where should I go!
G28(2)Gr G28||:Some place where you can see Anna!
()||BGM_Empty:...Jill freezes.
Jill(2)Jill||m_va_follow_the_trail:A place...where I can see Anna...
G28(2)Gr G28||:Hurry, boss! +Anna said that you'll definitely be able to find her!
Dorothy(2)Dorothy||:Hey—!
Sei(2)Sei||<震屏>:Don't squirm, you'll fly off!
G28(2)Gr G28||:Run, Jill, run!
Stella(2)Stella||:Dammit! Sei, your gun!
()||AVG_weapon_reload:...Kachak! Sei pulls out her gun with one hand.
Sei(2)Sei||:I'm sorry, Miss Jill! Please don't move!
Jill(2)Jill||:You, what are you doing! Please don't shoot!
G28(2)Gr G28||:Hey, you're scaring the boss! +Uwah—!
()||ClothingUp<震屏>:...Stella takes advantage of Gr G28's moment of distraction to reverse the hold and pins her to the ground.
Stella(2)Stella||:That'll settle you, you goddamn Doll! +Sei! Throw Dorothy to me! Hurry up and subdue Jill!
Dorothy(2)Dorothy||<震屏>:Ahhhh! ...Gently, gently!
Dorothy(0)Dorothy||:—All right, I'm home free!
Sei(2)Sei||:Miss Jill, please work with us!
Jill(2)Jill;Sei(2)||:St-Stay back, Sei!
Sei(2)Sei||:I won't hurt you. I just want to ask you a few questions. May I do that?
()||:...Sei puts her gun away.
Sei(4)Sei||:Don't be scared. Please give me your hand.
Dorothy(4)Dorothy||:Sei, you look like you're better cut out for the Valkyries.
Jill(2)Jill||:I...
G28(2)Gr G28||:Boss...
Sei(4)Sei||:Take your time, it's alright...
Jill(2)Jill||:Sei, everyone... +I—
Sei(3)Sei||:What—!
()||BGM_Empty<白屏1>0,5白屏1>:...Sei reaches out to grab Jill.
()||<黑屏1><白屏2>0,5白屏2>:...And then, her hand touches nothing but thin air.
()||9<黑屏2>m_va_spirit_potion:
Dorothy(0)Dorothy||:Whoa...
Sei(3)Sei||:Jill? Jill, where did you go!?
Stella(2)Stella||:Did...she vanish?
Sei(3)Sei||:Looks like it... +She just...vanished all of a sudden.
Dorothy(3)Dorothy||:Alright, my dear little dairy barmaid! +You must have something you want to tell us, right?
G28(2)Gr G28||:Uuu...
Stella(2)Stella||:You don't have to tell me, I'll scour your neural cloud for it.
G28(2)Gr G28||:D-Don't! I'll tell you! +Although, you won't be able to accept...the truth...
Sei(3)Sei||:Miss Gillian, no matter what Miss Jill turns out to be, it won't change how we see her.
G28(2)Gr G28||:No...I'm not just talking about the boss or Anna...
()Gr G28||<黑屏1>:I'm talking about...the truth of this world.
