Ugh, I'm not interested in playing your goofy
game, Zelkova. Just tell me what you're after.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#002]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
*What* game?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#003]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
The stalking game, by the look of it. Don't act
like you don't know the rulebook backwards!$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#004]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
...$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#005]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
You have the perceptive powers of a *hunter.*
Do you perchance hunt for sport...or for money?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#006]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
!?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#007]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
At last, the truth is *written* on your face. I'd
suspected you made your trade in violence.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#008]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
That is why I've *stalked* you, as you put it.
Suspicious persons ought to be observed.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#009]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
...$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#010]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
OK, I'll admit it. You've got some chops.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#011]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Now, what say we rattle your brains around
a bit and see what shakes out?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#012]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
What?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#013]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
You've got the same killer instinct I do.
It practically oozes from your pores. Like slime!$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#014]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
So, tell me. Have we had similar careers?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#015]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
That does *appear* to be the case.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#016]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Great. Well, let's not speak of it again.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#017]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
My work is in the past. I'm happily retired.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#018]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
I, too, have washed my *hands* of that life.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#019]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
So we have that in common too, huh? Well, let's
not make a thing of it.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_C_#020]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
See ya.$Wait(0)

About what we discussed *previously,*
Yunaka...$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#002]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
I told you not to make a thing of it, and yet
here you are. Making things.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#003]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
That message was well received. I only wished
to discuss *one* more detail.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#004]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
You said that a killer instinct *oozes* from my
pores. I believe you used the word "slime."$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#005]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
What did you mean by that?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#006]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
...$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#007]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
Please. It is crucial to my *well-being* that I am
able to curate the image I present to others.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#008]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Fine.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#009]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Look. You're a hunter. Everything you do and
say is about the kill.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#010]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
Could you indulge me with an *example*?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#011]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
OK, sure. Take your eyes, for *example.*
They're ice cold. Calculating.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#012]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Normal people don't go around evaluating what
folks' lives are worth. That's an assassin thing.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#013]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
You're always probing for weaknesses too.
Considering vectors of attack, right?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#014]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
That is *not* what I...$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#015]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
I won't let you deny it, you're doing it right now!$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#016]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Look at yourself. Tell me you're not poised to
counter a knife thrust from my dominant hand.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#017]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
You're constantly positioning to maximize your
tactical advantage. Don't think I don't see it.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#018]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
...$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#019]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Regular people don't think about violence so
much in everyday life. That's what I meant.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#020]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
To think that I should be so *transparent*
to you...$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#021]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Sharp eyes were part of the old job, as I'm sure
you know.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#022]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
I appreciate your insightful analysis. I will
*reflect* on what you've said.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_B_#023]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Yeah, don't mention it...$Wait(0)

Zelkova. Would you mind if we talked
a teensy bit more about our trade?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#002]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
Why the sudden change of *heart*? You were
quite clear that you didn't wish to discuss it.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#003]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
That's certainly true but....$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#004]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
I was worried talking about it too much would
be...too much. But it hasn't been.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#005]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
The opposite, actually. Talking about it's helped
me get distance. Perspective, y'know?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#006]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
What?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#007]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Look, people like us don't often get the chance
to speak candidly. It could be a good thing.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#008]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
Perhaps you're right. But even so, what is left
for us to *converse* about, exactly?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#009]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
The story of how I came to such a profession
is not one I am *keen* to tell.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#010]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
I'm afraid it's a rather tragic tale. Ill-suited for
any sort of *pleasant* conversation.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#011]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Yeah. Honestly, that whole chapter of my life
was pretty dang awful.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#012]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
It was the same for me. Not even the most
difficult *challenges* we face today compare.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#013]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
But I would venture to suppose that you did
not *choose* to embark upon a life of killing.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#014]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
What makes you say that?$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#015]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
I get the sense, merely by observing, that you
genuinely have *no* regrets.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#016]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
From this observation I inferred you may not
have been *responsible* for your circumstances.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#017]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
...!$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#018]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
Moreover, your present self was formed as a
*result* of growing apart from your past.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#019]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
In a way, then...if you are the blossom, your
past is the fertilizer which *nourished* you.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#020]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
...$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#021]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Words have weight, Zelkova...$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#022]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
But it's funny. Hearing them somehow makes
me feel lighter. Maybe it's our common bond.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#023]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
You flatter me.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#024]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
I've been thinking about what I'll do when all
this is over. When the world's finally peaceful.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#025]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
What I want most is to go someplace where
I can kick back. Put my feet up. Luxuriate!$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#026]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
I will say that does *sound* lovely.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#027]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
If and when that happens, I hope you'll drop in
on me once in a while.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#028]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
I would gladly make an appearance. There will
be conversations *only* you and I can have.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#029]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
Please, I can't help but look forward to it.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#030]
$Window(2, "ゼルコバ")
Let us work toward that eventuality
as our *common* goal from now on.$Wait(0)

[MID_RELIANCE_A_#031]
$Window(2, "ユナカ")
It's a promise, then. If we've got the same dark
past, we may as well share a bright future.$Wait(0)
