[it's a very diplomatic and thorough answer, he thinks. it's an answer he can appreciate but at the same time it says a lot and nothing at all all at once.

not that that's viola's fault, so in the end there's a somewhat tight smile that still conveys some gratitude.]

Yeah...other doors are still an option. [and then, more to the point:] Everyone I've talked to that spoke to her said the same thing. Closed off, probably gave everybody different answers and not giving much information at all. But Maya thinks it might've been because she was afraid to say anything.

Afraid...?

[she parrots the word, tone thoughtful]

I suppose... if the given answer is unacceptable, the only assumption then is that there is another answer that she could not give for whatever reason. Fear could be one...

...I know it's not like you guys know more than we do, so I appreciate you listening. But hopefully this'll be the end of it. [it will not, and he does not believe that. nevertheless...]

Thanks for meeting me out here, Viola. I'm sure you've got a lot of stuff to do, and I think I do, too. Figure out more doors, you know?

[there is a little bob from the mascot costume... she is trying to curtsy...]

Then let us depart for now and reconvene later. Hopefully we'll discover a few more of those openings shortly.

[goalsides]

I hope you're right. [and he'll even nod politely and gesture for her to go ahead...in case...she wobbles too hard and falls. it's fine. goodbye mods.]
