Yeah, dinner parties don’t usually last like two full days. Anyone’d get snappy about that.
[ isaac’s image was pretty ruined when he stuttered over platonically sharing a bed with a cute girl but don’t let that stop you akira, you’re a true bro. ]
Got a question for you: do you remember getting an invite to this thing?
Nah. It ain’t that faulty. It remembers more than you think it does.
[ he sounds oddly serious, all things considered. ]
And if it doesn’t, there’ll be something that’ll prompt it. I wasn’t exactly in a position to be signing myself up for dinner parties before I got here, so I’m willing to call some bullshit on this.
. . . [gives Ash a kind of strange look, as though he's picking up on that oddly serious response. but he says nothing. he too knows how humans can remember more than they think they do, especially after meeting Futaba]
I wasn't, either. In fact, the last thing I remember was being on a road trip with my friends.
[not exactly something he'd be eager to leave in order to come to a SPOOKY MANSION]
Don’t think any of us remember dropping what we were doing to come here. Wherever “here” is, and whatever it is we’re expected to do here. If we were just here to eat and wreck the ballroom, we’d be gone by now.
They're both crazy; convinced they're doing the right thing for the sake of people who don't want it; and hang the world and anyone who gets in their way.

And. . . look after him, too. Nia-san as well, but. . .
[how does he say this without making it sound like Isaac needs to be coddled? because he absolutely does not, but Akira does think that maybe. . .]
I think he could really use a couple of friends in this place.

He seems pretty confrontational. [ Says the most confrontational guy possibly ever. ] Can't say I blame him though.
no subject
[he isn't going to say "Isaac is clearly afraid" because he doesn't want to RUIN ISAAC'S IMAGE, but. that's the impression he got from the kid]
Nothing about this situation makes someone want to be cooperative.

[and Akira's expression immediately sours, brows furrowed and lips pulled downward into a frown]
I don't. I even asked Peach-san about it, but she just told me that human memory is faulty.

I've heard a few theories about why we might be here, but none of them are pleasant. And they're all perfect speculation.

Speculation is better than wandering around ignorant and naive. Hit me. [ ... with the speculations. ]

It’s not like either of them are wrong. Kidnap usually leads to crap like experimentation, exploitation or murder.

And here I was getting my hopes up that they just wanted to treat us to a nice, quiet vacation.
