itp: the very secret diaries

[impiersonate]

[in the Mess Hall today, there's a large pile of books! Suspicious books. If you happened to open one, it appears to be a diary. It might be yours. Or maybe it belongs to someone you know. Maybe it's utterly fake! It's there nonetheless.

There's a girl nearby catching up on her reading.]

That's not the most eloquent thing I've ever read . . .

Quite a collection. Whatcha readin', darlin'?

[impiersonate]

A diary. In fact, I believe they're all diaries.

[notmakingout]

Really... [shifts through some curiously, glancing at covers] Whose?

[impiersonate]

You tell me. It's not like I've read all of them.

[notmakingout]

[picks one up and flips through it]

...Uh, I don't think I want ta read this guy's diary. Hey, wait, isn't this kinda an invasion of privacy?

[impiersonate]

Well, if you're careless enough to let your diary end up in a big pile of diaries in the middle of a public area . . .

[notmakingout]

I ain't sure that's necessarily a matter of carelessness, in this place.

[impiersonate]

Probably not. But curiosity is curiosity.

[notmakingout]

Maybe... but I mean, did these just appear out of nowhere? Mine could be in here!

[impiersonate]

Shall we see if we can find it~?

[notmakingout]

No! I mean, um, maybe. I mean, er, did I say I had a diary?

[impiersonate]

Yes, you did. But don't worry. I'll keep my hands off your secrets.

[notmakingout]

It's, uh, not that full of secrets. I mean, I don't use it regularly or anythin'.

[impiersonate]

Just when you need to get your feelings out, hmm?

[notmakingout]

...Somethin' like that.

[impiersonate]

Thought so.
