Argenti's Palace

[beautifulknight]

The stage is set they say;
They don their masks and shields,
Shadows creep and cover their minds;
Now, what beautiful role shall they play?

You are correct about that, technically. Humans can be very ugly when they are tarnished...however...

[ Falin looked at her hands, thinking about her the feathers that are permanent to her being now. ]

There is beauty in the fact that they can change for the better. Become even better versions of themselves. It seems like something Argenti would believe.

[ Between this and what Izou said... yeah, she feels like they're getting somewhere. ]

"Tarnished" means something that can still be restored and brought back to its original state. It's about still being able to change and become better. I think that's how his mind works.

I know that's how his mind works. The way he described his friends makes me think it's the kind of answer he would agree with. However...

Everyone has been giving good answers that are all based in their experience, which is also beautiful!

[ Guide #2? Spotted. Although Maika's eyebrow twitches a little at hearing "beauty" dropped again casually. She's going to be hearing a lot of that before she's out of this, huh. ]

You know him pretty well? That should make this easier, too.

[ Ah, wait. And the one other thing she's overlooked. Quickly skimming her memory of the roster she bullied requested from Mina... ]

Glad to see you're not in a coma. I'm Maika. Name?

[chimken]

I wouldn't say pretty well, but we had a very wonderful conversation about our worlds and our friends when we were first here. I was able to grasp a lot of his personality from it, though from what I'm gathering, all his conversations with others seemed to be that way.

[ Falin gave her a little bow. ]

Falin. It's nice to meet you, Maika.
