“<span class="mu-s">Ichie Saionji</span>, do you not recognize me?” Wilma starts.
“I’m sorry! All I have caught is a mere glimpse of your face. You, the disenfranchised, tend to turn violent when making eye contact with a benevolent figure like myself. Your misguided resentment is unpredictable. But once I fix society, we’ll all be able to look at each other face to face! It’ll be wonderful!” Ichie excuses herself. What are you? A band of chimpanzees? Is that why she refrains from looking at your face…?
“<span class="mu-i">Oh goodness gracious…</span>” Ruby feels second-hand embarrassment from the other side of the room. This has occurred to her a bunch of times in the past, and the redhead still struggles to deal with it.
“Ichie, you wouldn’t be here today if my husband and I didn’t go back to look for you, don’t you remember?” Wilma furrows her eyebrows.
“I have no recollection of such events.” Ichie is puzzled by the revelation.
“You served as a damsel in distress for the heroic boy to save from the <span class="mu-i">magical</span> forest. The little boy refused to move a muscle for an annoying little girl, and your own father left you for dead. <span class="mu-i">’If she dies, I’ll find another’</span>, he said.” Wilma recalls.
“Do not speak ill of my father! He wouldn’t be so callous!” Ichie doesn’t believe a word coming from the tomato’s mouth.
“<span class="mu-s">I’ll speak however I please about the man who murdered my husband.</span>” Wilma glares back.
“<span class="mu-i">Oh my god.</span>” Ruby puts both hands on her mouth.
Matilda slowly turns her head to you, in mild disbelief, like scolding you for bringing this girl here. To be fair, you’re a moron.
“Oh! I know where this is going!” Ichie giggles. “Lies, lies, and lies! I have heard it all my entire life. Speaking ill of my father won’t bring your husband back to life, Ms. Widow! I bet this is all a big misunderstanding!”
…
Okay, some bombs have been shelved, you were expecting Wilma to call out Ichie for all her eccentricities, but this is turning into a way different territory! Ichie refusing to listen to Wilma will cause issues unless…
<span class="mu-s">What do you do?</span>
>Let Wilma cry. Her flashback tears will show the truth. (QM Note: This won’t affect the Bubble Dimension. That’s San Wich’s power.)>Tell Ichie to stop refusing the truth! It’s time she knows her obviously serial killer father is, in fact, a serial killer.>You know, it’s better that you, uh, take Ichie away before this gets ugly. Maybe having a 1-on-1 conversation with her will show the error of her ways!>Write In.
