[ She hums thoughtfully in turn. The memory of that last day is so much clearer than the days before, and she was more real for it. It's harder to recall the time before that. ]
No, that sounds right. I may have reached that point already. I'm glad I didn't harm either of you before I knew who you were.
[ She very well might have, if Loop hadn't been so eager to play along with her 'games'. ]
[ She smiles wryly. They're both glad for that. If being a ghost is always that miserable then she can understand a lot of horror stories a lot better now. ]
Maybe so, but you probably should have trusted me a little less. That's what happened in the maze room, isn't it?
[ Which is when the demon attacked. Maybe it wouldn't have, if they had gone through the maze properly. Maybe it would have found an excuse anyway. She doesn't want to think about this, why is she talking about it? She takes a gulp of her refreshed drink. ]
I need to get back to the plans for our house, now that I think of it. Heimr said he could take care of it all, but I don't want to leave anything to chance when unknown magic is involved.
Ehhh, that wasn't your fault, M'dame. Logically, it just makes sense to try and go the fastest way! And I think... eventually, Loop and I definitely would have tried to just go through just as we did anyways.
[ With their loved ones on the line? Sometimes taking it slow and easy just goes out the window. But still, all of that is something he'd be happy to take a step away from thinking about for a good while, swallowing it down along with his drink. ]
Oh!!! Right! The house. That's good we'll have some help, but is there something you're specifically worried about? [ To see where he can come in and hopefully help. Arms cross, tapping at his arm with a hum. ] If we wanted, I could help set up a Vaugardian lock with it? I know we aren't in Vaugarde but.. on the chance we want to use an openphrase with us. For some extra safety?
It's Loop's room, actually. It's going to use a lot of glass, and I want to be certain that the structure will be sound with or without any magic. It will probably need additional protection, too.
[ Confusion if because he actually has no idea what Loop went and requested for their room but. If they don't really like being cooped up in places, having glass for most of.. say the walls, or even the roof? Does make some sense! Even a lot. ]
Yeah, who knows what else can happen here. And glass isn't exactly the sturdiest of materials without any protection. Is that something we could potentially ask? Not sure what we can do with Craft..
I've been repeatedly assured that everything can be taken care of magically.
[ She doesn't like that answer. It's not that she doubts Heimr's abilities, but she doesn't know how this magic works, and she doesn't want to rely on something so vague. ]
I was able to find a book with what I believe are the correct formulas, though. With proper framing it will hold up against the normal dangers. For everything else, I'm not sure.
[ Magically isn't always bad, after all in their own universe they do make use of Craft with a lot of things. Outside and in battle. But he can understand wanting some sense of stability. The bit of doubt in trusting in something they don't really understand. ]
Normal dangers is at least somewhere. If it lists correct formulas, I can try a hand to doublecheck once everything is done though.
[ It seems to hit him as much at that eyebrow raise, sheepishly laughing it off as he pokes at his glass. Right. Not really a part of him he shares but he's.. trying. ]
Yeah! I can give it a look over! [ ... ] Sooo... things going well with Loop then??

[ Even if he's doing his best not to think about how they already were too late. They still died in the end. ..Ugh, keep talking Isabeau. ]
Once we realized it was you, I wasn't worried though. I knew you wouldn't hurt us, M'dame.

If you'd like. I left my notebook in my room, but I can lend it to you later. It's in Ka Buan, but I can translate the names of materials.

I haven't spoken with them since the mansion. [ No, she will not call it a house, no matter how much she drinks. ]
I suppose things aren't going poorly?
