>>5780091A rueful laugh drifts through the speaker. “<span class="mu-i">Perhaps I’ll start a bakery. I’ve always been fond of sweets… or maybe I’ll just work on my Stand-Up Comedy routine…</span>”
A pause.
“<span class="mu-i">... that was also a joke.</span>”
Still, you counter, it’s… it’s not fair-
“<span class="mu-i">I was the one that told everyone, Diesel,</span>” The heiress adds, “<span class="mu-i">I didn’t want to harbor any more secrets. Manipulated or not, my actions endangered everyone here tonight… and even cost a few lives.</span>”
It’s fine, you reply with an angry sigh, you’ll… Rivka’s not dead, okay? She fell into a portal that went haywire and… and she might come back some day! You’ll need all the resources Mina can scrounge up!
The Class Prez takes a moment to weigh your words, but when she responds there’s still a smile in her tone.
“<span class="mu-i">I’m relieved to hear that.</span>”
Errr, Earth to Mina: the batshit insane scientist is <span class="mu-s">STILL ALI-</span>
“<span class="mu-i">But she lost this battle,</span>” Mina interjects, “<span class="mu-i">And if she still lives then my family can still get justice for what she did… and if she dies elsewhere, well…</span>” You’re pretty sure she shrugs, “<span class="mu-i">Then all the better, really.</span>”
Not gonna lie, Cammy took you off-guard here, but so did Mina–why… Why on Earth would she just reveal all that incriminating crap? After everything that’s happened!?
“<span class="mu-i">I don’t want to be burdened by any more lies.</span>” She answers, as if that explains everything, “<span class="mu-i">And neither does Darren. Our father thrived on them, but you know how that served him in the end. We can discuss the future when you return to the Mansion, Diesel.</span>”
But-
“<span class="mu-i">And… thank you,</span>” Mina adds with a touch of sadness in her voice, “<span class="mu-i">For all that you’ve done. Your kindness and candidness have been… refreshing</span>.”
Anything else for Mina?
