Location: Inside the Library
Servant Roland
Gathered ‘em all, Angela~ Mr. Coffee Addict, Ms. Smoking Addict… And the kid addicted to sharp-tonguedness.
Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences Chesed
Why, you arranged a meeting for us folks who accepted your proposal?
Patron Librarian - Language Gebura
Make no mistake, Angela. We aren’t on your side. We only share a common goal.
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
…Unlike that beanpole in black who’s totally sucking up to her.
Servant Roland
I’m just an employee doing my best to work, and now you’re calling me a beanpole…
Library Director Angela
Common goal… Yes, that is all I ask of you.
Library Director Angela
As long as we share the same purpose, you’ll have to be on my side, like it or not.
Library Director Angela
Both you and I are blind for the Light.
Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences Chesed
And you’re still chained to the past.
Library Director Angela
That’s funny. Do you think you’re free from your past?
Library Director Angela
Have you forgotten it already, Chesed? The days you spent succumbed to fear.
Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences Chesed
Oh no, how can I forget~ I still remember it clearly, y’know?
Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences Chesed
The shame of giving in to that anguish will haunt me as long as I live.
Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences Chesed
But, I don’t wanna forget those memories. Decided to embrace them instead. So did everyone else here.
Patron Librarian - Language Gebura
He’s right. I don’t believe that I failed to protect anything. I could save the life of someone who inherited her will.
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
Enoch’s sacrifice… wasn’t in vain, either. That’s what I believe.
Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences Chesed
Pray tell, miss, who’s really chained to the past here?
Library Director Angela
…The pasts you speak of are so light and insignificant.
Patron Librarian - Language Gebura
Sure, if that’s what you think. You only care about the feelings and agony you bear.
Library Director Angela
Are you trying to call me selfish?
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
No. Just like how you can’t understand our pain, we can’t understand yours.
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
Especially if you never experienced the same thing yourself.
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
Others can’t just walk a mile in your shoes. No one will get you if you don’t speak up.
Library Director Angela
…
Library Director Angela
Don’t you try to lecture me after all this time.
Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences Chesed
Off she goes~
Servant Roland
That was way too harsh, guys. Did you really have to be so hard on her?
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
It’s not because we hate her. We’re saying this for Angela’s sake.
Patron Librarian - Language Gebura
It’s hard to take a step forward if there’s no one around to give you honest advice.
Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences Chesed
Hear, hear~ Tiphereth and I tell Gebura so many things for her own good, too.
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
…Um, Chesed.
Patron Librarian - Language Gebura
…
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
Run, Chesed!
Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences Chesed
Well then, if you’ll excuse me~ It wasn’t a very pleasant meeting, but I’ll say it was a meaningful one since all of us got together for once.
Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences Chesed
Welp, she’s about to blow up. See you around, Roland~
Servant Roland
…Are those two always like that?
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
Yeah. He does that every day knowing she’ll get mad at him…
Servant Roland
Boy, that’s brutal. Guess I’ll have to expect the middle floors to be a warzone…
Servant Roland
And you’re acting as the mediator between those two?
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
Who knows what kind of mess this place would be if I didn’t stop them.
Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences Tiphereth
But still, they actually care for each other, so don’t think too badly of them.
Servant Roland
Yeah~ Looks like not killing him outright is as good as her care gets.
