I believe in curses. Do you, mun? Well, I believe you when you say this place you want to take me has them. But they seem kind of mean at times, but that's something everyone has to put up with, right? If I make friends there, we can all work together and overcome them!

It will be like a game, though I'm not sure if this one is winnable. Is it, winnable, mun? Maybe we'll find out!

For now, I'm excited to know that you still think of me! Thanks so much, it makes me happy to know that!

[Interesting.

Interesting is good, isn't it? Clover likes interesting, too...she's all over learning about others' juicy little secrets and things they've tried to hide, really. Just...maybe not at the expense of her own.

June, on the other hand...

Well.]

You look almost happy about it.

Do I? I just thought that if people are there and in the same situation, we'd all work together to make sure everything would be okay! Like during the Nonary Game!

[That working as a team was the best solution. That working as a team was her coverup, and acting like an innocent girl who was thrown into this game with a fever. That was was concerned about everyone's well-being, and worked to be friendly with the very man she hated.

An actress and a liar are the two things she's best at. Or maybe they're one in the same.]

[Because that worked out real well for them last time. No, no—Clover isn't going to be making that mistake again. Relying on others, working with them, counting on them?

There's no way she could; not anymore. It's a laughable thought, though she does suppress the sarcasm well enough when she speaks.]

Right. Of course! Just like during the Nonary Game.

[That stupid game that she's had to deal with twice now.]

Except your life won't be in danger this time...will it...?

[The way she phrases it, it's hard to tell whether it's a question or not. Her voice lowers, in volume and in pitch. She is pretty much assuming no, until otherwise proven.

She has to fight a war against witches, while June's on a play-date, making friends with the other kids.

...Fair, real fair.]
