[Lightly jogging to catch up to Robin~]

Was what here yester-- [and she pauses, taking note of the bizarre fork in the halls] --...day..?

Oh.

[stitched_akuma]

[She looks back at Lenalee over her shoulder.] Mm, the halls changed again. I wonder if either of them still goes the same way as before...?

[fallforthe_sky]

I... don't know. This is the first time I've seen something [...] like this.

Is there another hall you can take?

[stitched_akuma]

These things happen every while...hallways disappearing and changing their appearance. [She smiles] It's a pain, but you'll get used to it. I'll try a different path. I was going on patrol, so-

[She trails off, staring at the corridor back the way they came. It's turned into a dead end while they were talking.]

[fallforthesky]

[Though Lena's trying her best to stay involved in the conversation, and is even partway to suggesting that maybe she could possibly come along, once Robin trails off, she blinks and turns to see what she's looking at. What on Earth. How did that even happen?]

Did it just cut us off--?

[stitched_akuma]

[She goes up to the dead end, and raps her fist on the wall. It sounds solid.]

It...it looks like it. Even though this place changes sometimes, it doesn't usually do it when people are right there!

[fallforthesky]

Do you think it will change back if we wait long enough? [It's a dim hope.] Maybe we should start looking for another way out...?

[She glances uneasily at the tunnel-like corridors left open before them.]

[stitched_akuma]

I don't know. [She gives a sigh, and turns to look at the two tunnel-corridors.] But...right now I can't see any way out but those two. They look a little strange.

[fallforthe_sky]

Honestly, this is so inconvenient. [With a huff, she crosses her arms, peering at the glow worms in the walls.] Are those... alive?

[As she speaks, one of them wriggles, making a quite but still rather gross squelching sound, proving that yes, they are. A slightly galled look appears on her face.]

[stitched_akuma]

[One of the worms falls down to the floor from the ceiling, and wriggles to the side. Neither tunnel's looking very appealing right now.]

Er...It'll be okay! Maybe if we just go through there really fast...

[fallforthesky]

You think so?

[stitched_akuma]

[She nods, trying to look encouraging.] What's the worst that could happen? We'd just need to take baths if any of them fell on us. That's not so bad.

[fallforthesky]

Mm, you're right, of course. [She scratches her cheek and nods.] All right, let's go.

[stitched_akuma]

[She walks into the tunnel on the right, keeping a smile on her face while looking into the dark.]

It's okay...there's enough light here, just about.

[fallforthesky]

That's lucky. [Lena follows behind her, a little less cheery looking, though that's to be expected. Her poker face isn't so great when things like this start going down.] Although I have to wonder why they glow at all...

[stitched_akuma]

[She keeps walking along, occasionally glancing back over her shoulder at Lenalee. The dark corridor is quiet and damp, with a few dripping sounds coming from somewhere. Up in the distance, there are some stalactites barely visible in the dim light.]

I wonder if Akuma would want to hide in a place like this...?
