As Mondatta was finishing up on searching through the section of the study he took to investigating, he sighed, and put books back in the shelf. "It seems our captor has removed any other tomes that would enlighten us in our current path." His eyelights then blinked when Daimyon came to him and showed him the book.

“Looks like your fame reached far and wide, my friend,” he said. “Well-deserved, I say!”

Mondatta simply stared at the book he held in his hands. He slowly opened it, and then closed it again. [color=gray]"Oh, this is...Yes...Thank you, Mr. Londe. This brought back memories of a happier time. And perhaps the wisdom I once wrote into these pages may help a certain someone. I will be heading back now to report on our findings."[/color] With that said, the metallic man once again walked away with heavy steps.

Mary had a blast talking with Aleecia, even if she didn't actually know much of the topic, Lizards and Labyrinths; she told the blind woman she only played the tabletop game once at a convention alongside other internet personalities. Still, she managed to make her chuckle with her stories of bungling through the game. Mary smiled; she was happy making people laugh and be entertained by her, as she was good at it, and felt she could only truly be happy if she continued bringing smiles to people. In that regard, she was a bit sad that Aleecia couldn't see her own smile, so she compensated for it with her laughter.

When it was time for the afternoon report, Mary had to control herself from leaping out and glomping Caora, who reluctantly appeared, partly due to the people he was accompanied with, and partly because she didn't want to cause a scene like the bandaged fellow Ice did. That, and she did want to at least listen in on any new findings the explorers found.

“Hello there!” he addressed Mary, who tried to look over his shoulder even now to see where Caora went. The trap told Daimyon a bit about her—it was nothing positive. “I don't think I've had the pleasure yet. I'm Daimyon, the resident rhyme-wrangler,” he introduced himself, stressing the Rs a bit for effect. “How was your day?”

[color=pink]"Oh hiii! Daimy-doo, right? Oh, nothing special, just having a bit of girl talk with Allie here, tee hee~!"[/color] She giggled, and gave a quick handshake to him. [color=pink]"So you're the Infinite Poet? Oh, poems are so romantic! You know, I've had love letters sent to me, but never one with a poem, can you believe it? To pour your heart into your words like a lyrical cupid...Aaahh..."[/color] She said as she sighed and leaned on her arm, gazing into the distance, fantasizing of a Caora-written love poem. 

Then her eyes shone like stars. [color=pink]"Hey, could you help me with something? I kinda...need a love letter. I mean, I want to write one, the most romantic, lovey-dovey letter ever! And you're just the man I need! Can you help me, please? I'll make it up to you, I promise~,"[/color] she pleaded, winking her eyelashes in an attempt at endearment.

When it came time for the afternoon roundup, Mondatta explained his own part, but unfortunately it didn't add much to their situation, and he could only bow his head. [color=gray]"Forgive me for my lack of contribution, but there was little we could find. That aside, the metal bars are mysterious. I could only wonder if we may explore any other floors, and if so, when? There are still untold mysteries surrounding this former shrine of restoration..."[/color]

Mondatta only stared at the message their captors sent, not responding to it in any way; whether it was due to his choice of ignoring the morbidly wacky Carnage Sisters and the Doctor, or if he was simply unable to comprehend their insanity, no one could tell. When it was over, Mary gave an expression of disgusted horror. [color=pink]"Is the bear serious? What does that have to do with hope? Sounds like he's just gonna slaughter us if we go outside anyway!"[/color]

“What do you think about this whole ordeal?” he asked the knight. “Will Monokuma actually...kill if we don't give him what he wants? And what does he want anyway?”
[/quote]
Mondatta responded: [color=gray]"I believe the doctor intends to test our faith in ourselves, and did so by asking for someone to step out on the Night of Carnage."[/color] Mary's face turned pale. [color=pink]"But that would mean-!"[/color]
The robotic-looking monk nodded. [color=gray]"Yes...Someone has to give up their life as a sacrifice in order to save another."[/color] Mondatta turned silent for a moment, and then spoke again. [color=gray]"In that case...I will do it."[/color] Mary's jaw opened. [color=pink]"EEEEHHH! But you can't, Robo-Miyagi! Don't you remember the rules? They can kill you during the Night of Carnage!"[/color]
Mondatta lifted his palm. [color=gray]"My frail and sickly life was already granted a second chance, it is unnecessary for another."[/color] His eye-lights turned into a happy smile. [color=gray]"Besides, it is only fitting that I end it the same way I lived it: entrusting hope of the future into the hearts of others."[/color]
