... You think it's like... hell, what's the word. Karma, or malice or something? There was a lot of crap that went down in that mansion, what if some of it was.. I dunno. Clinging it us when we left?

Maybe something here makes it physical and dangerous?
Purifying crap? [he just. makes a face] When you put it like that, it almost sounds like the corruptions the people from the center of the universe dealt with.

Knives flying out of nowhere the second the scrunchies are off isn't normal.

I talked to the directors after trial, yeah? All three of them.
I asked Shadows if there was a way to expel the "residuals" from this world. They said they didn't think so, but. . .
If we can do that, then we can stop this stupid "game," right?
