[That's what's gotten her so riled up -- not that she actually believes Chuuya is making that up for his own indecent purposes. But it's putting in stark relief the other aspects of this arrangement she's offended by.]
I'm going to be frank with you. I'm not inclined to trust any of this. I'm certain the guidelines of what you can and cannot do are not of your own devising, and you're working within them. But I'm no longer content to wait while you catch up on this current week's events.
They do. On both sides. You need it to make sure you survive and to get currency, we need that exchange to be able to do anything outside the usual guidelines for you.
[That last comment is what sticks out the most, though, and there's a brief hum before he answers.]
If you want to try taking matters into your own hands-- there's shit the place won't let you do, sure. But things like the locked areas... we can open new floors to you guys, but we can't go unlock or check those out ourselves. There are things here that are out of our hands entirely, so if you want my opinion? Don't just wait on us.
The rules say we're just here to guide you. We're doing what we can within that role, but I get the feeling this is working as intended.
[The acknowledgement that maybe they aren't doing enough at least pacifies her a little.]
Yes, I'd say so. Four of us are dead now, and no demons. [A. Little.] Fine, I'll continue swinging my axe into doors until something breaks again.
Now, tell me if these are the types of questions you can't answer me directly. If necessary, I'll send a list along with someone in a more accommodating mood. [Just gonna staple a list of questions and a condom to Hige.]
When did Monika become possessed - immediately after what Polly did, or sometime later? Did that thing that escaped from Monika go inside a different person? Are there others around, and have all of those others chosen a host yet?

[He might be somewhat frustrated about that-- but honestly, he didn't anticipate it being like that either.]
As for the questions: can't answer that in full, can't answer those at all directly.
no subject
[God. So rude.]
Could you answer any of those if asked by someone who had been intimate with you?
no subject
You can't let them break the circle. That's what happened.
[But they hadn't exactly seen how strong the demons could be, yet.]
I couldn't answer all of them, but I could give somebody at least one of those answers in exchange.
