  Bonnie (sulk3) I hate this.

  Isabeau (brag1) Sorry, Bonbon. The Sadnesses in here are too powerful for your tiny little arms!

  Isabeau (neutral1) You can help out sometimes, as long as you make sure to keep your distance. But we know that's boring, so...

  Isabeau (fufufu1) ...That's why we also made you in charge of snacks!!! It's a super duper very important job, y'know? The super duper importantest.

ACT 1

ACT 2+

Odile (wonder1) We should Examine this Sadness first to know what we're up against, so...

Isabeau (hahaha1) So it's your job, m'dame!

Odile (dotdotdot3) Yes. Please slow down, everyone, and let me attack first for once.

Odile (reading1) When it's my turn, I'll Examine the enemy by using a Craft Skill.

Odile (melan4) Remnants of the people that were defeated by the King...

Odile (melan3) Their grief and sadness is all that remains.

Odile (sad1) They cannot tell friend from foe anymore. Defeating them is all we can do...

Odile (huh1) Every Sadness has a different resistance and weakness.
Maybe there's a way to figure it out from their appearance...

Bonnie (surprised1) Hmm...

Bonnie (sulk5) We need to do certain hand signs when we Craft skills... So maybe we should look at their hands?

Odile (smile1) Very well done, Boniface. So this Sadness must be...

Odile (lol2) Siffrin? What do you think?

Bonnie (hmf1) Yeah! It's doing a Scissors sign!

Odile (lol1) Indeed it is.

Odile (lol2) So if this enemy is Scissors type, what's the best type of attacks we can use against it, Siffrin?

ACT 1

Siffrin (um1) (Your turn again?!)

• "Scissors attacks?"

  Wrong answer! See wrong guess dialogue, then try again.

Bonnie (and then1) Yeah! Rock beats Scissors!!!

Odile (lol2) Exactly.

Odile (lol4) Thankfully, even after examining this enemy, it is still my turn.

Isabeau (hahaha1) And thankfully, you can use all three types of Craft!!!

Odile (urgh1) Yes. I am still Paper type, though, so hopefully this Sadness doesn't attack me...

Odile (huh1) Let's go and attack it, now.

• First wrong answer this loop

  Isabeau (LMAO1) Aw, Sif! Even I know that's wrong!

  Odile (lol2) Wrong. Try again, Siffrin.

  Odile (lol2) Wrong again.

• Fourth wrong answer or more this loop

  (No, that's wrong.)

Try another answer!

Isabeau (yeah!1) Yeah!!! Great hit, m'dame Odile!

Bonnie (sulk5) Um, what's that symbol that appeared on the right after you attacked, again?

Bonnie (surprised1) I know you've said it before, but I forget.

Odile (yeah1) Ah... Good eye, Boniface.

Odile (lol2) Don't worry about that right now. Just remember it's there, for later. Let's finish beating up this Sadness, shall we?

Odile (lol4) No need to slow down for me anymore.

Mirabelle (anxious2) I-It's our turn to attack whenever our Attack Gauge is filled, right?

Bonnie (hmf1) It's that gauge that fills up automatically when no one is doing anything!

Odile (lol3) Precisely. Let's defeat this Sadness, now.

Bonnie (and then1) YAHOO!!!

Mirabelle (anxious3) We did it...!

Isabeau (hahaha2) That was easy, wasn't it?

Mirabelle (happy1) It was! Just look at the enemy's hands to find out their type, and attack accordingly!

Mirabelle (happy1) We did it!!!

Isabeau (brag1) See, Mira? It wasn't that bad!

Bonnie (proud1) Going through the house will be a piece of cake!!!

Odile (huh1) A Sadness, huh? The house must be crawling with them...

Mirabelle (angy1) O-okay everyone, let's, um, uh--

(You strike.)

The screen fades to black.

A slashing sound punctuates each line of dialogue.

(So annoying.)

(You have ENOUGH of all those STUPID SADNESSES standing in your BLINDING WAY.)

(always HERE always GETTING IN YOUR WAY always SLOWING YOU DOWN)

(WHY WON'T THEY ALL DIE!!!!!!)

(Not dead yet?   You strike again.)

A slashing sound punctuates each "DEAD".

(Not DEAD not DEAD not DEAD not DEAD not DEAD not DEAD THERE WE GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

• "I got it!"

The looping animation plays, rewinding events back to before Siffrin attacked the Sadness.

Odile (huh1) A Sadness, huh? The house must be crawling with them...

Mirabelle (angy1) O-okay everyone, let's, um, uh--

Isabeau (really1) Don't get overwhelmed now!

Odile (urgh1) Come on... We've seen tons of those already.

Bonnie (hmf1) Don't worry, Belle! We can take care of them no problem!!!

Battle begins.

(Don't kill it in one strike, or they'll notice.)

(Your ATTACK lowered.)

The battle proceeds as normal.

After the battle

Mirabelle (happy1) We did it!!!

Isabeau (brag1) See, Mira? It wasn't that bad!

(Take the lead, take the lead, take the lead.)

(They're all counting on you.)

(Don't scare them by acting weird.)

(...)

(You got a MEMORY OF SADNESSES!)

(You'll always remember this.)

[When equipped, Sadnesses will flee from you.]

Mirabelle (anxious2) Oh! More Sadnesses...

Odile (awkward1) We'll have to fight them if we want to proceed... Or we could just run and make sure they don't touch us.

Mirabelle (anxious3) Um, um... Could we keep talking about strategies for a bit, maybe?

Isabeau (angry2) Hey, Sif...

Mirabelle (anxious1) N-No, Siffrin is right...

(You smile at Mirabelle, and keep walking.)

You've successfully deactivated tutorial mode! Other special dialogue in this hallway will not trigger.

ACT 1

(Urgh.)

ACT 2

(You stick out your tongue at her.)

ACT 3 & 4

(...)

(She can be surprisingly mischevious, sometimes.)

---

Mirabelle (happy4) Hehehe...

Odile (wonder1) Alright, we went over attacks and types...

Odile (huh1) So let's talk about Craft skills.

Odile (reading1) Compared to normal attacks, Craft skills are more powerful, or may allow us to heal, or buff ourselves up.

Odile (reading2) Enemies won't be shy about using Craft skills, so we shouldn't either.

Odile (gimme1) But using one Craft skill means it'll go into Cooldown. After using one, we won't be able to execute the same skill for a few turns.

Mirabelle (awawa1) I-it's usually fine, but it might be dangerous with healing skills!

Mirabelle (anxious2) I'll try to make sure to use my healing skills carefully, so I don't run out at a dangerous moment...

Isabeau (brag1) But even if it happens, there's items to recharge our cooled down skills, and there might even be skills and equipment out there to help out!

Odile (lol2) That is true. In the meantime, let's attack, shall we?

Odile (lol3) Feel free to try things out.

Mirabelle (angy1) We did it!!!

Bonnie (sulk5) ...But really, what were those symbols that appeared when you did a Rock, Paper or Scissors attack...

Odile (lol2) You'll see.

Odile (lol2) Alright, what's this one's type?

Isabeau (fufufu1) Hehehe...

Odile (huh1) Let's see... Do you know this...?

Odile (lol2) ISABEAU?

Isabeau (omgggg1) HUH?!? ME?!?

Isabeau (neutral1) Well, um, it's Paper type, m'dame. And so it means it's weak to Scissors.

Isabeau (hahaha1) Sif's type!

Odile (lol1) And Mirabelle's.

Isabeau (hahaaa1) A-And Mirabelle's, of course.

Odile (lol2) And I have Scissors Skills at my disposal, as well.

Isabeau (hahaaa1) Yes, m'dame, I knew that.

Odile (lol1) Uh huh.

Bonnie (serious1) Since it's weak to Scissors, I think you should use Scissors attacks a bunch.

Odile (lol1) Great idea, Boniface. I wonder what will happen if we use the same Type of Craft Skill multiple times in a row?

Mirabelle (happy1) Hehehe...

Isabeau (really1) Feels like you guys are on a roll with those Scissors attacks.

Isabeau (hahaaa1) I don't have any Scissors attacks... So how about I give my turn away to someone who does?

Isabeau (really1) Which is, like we've established earlier, literally everyone but me, I guess.

Bonnie (proud1) Ha, that's what you get for being Rock type!

Isabeau (really1) Hey everyone, I'm being bullied by a preteen? Please advise?

Odile (reading2) You'll get over it.

Odile (gimme1) But great idea, Isabeau

Odile (gimme1) To make sure we keep using the same type right after the other, use that skill of yours to give your turn away, or you can guard if you want.

Isabeau (hahaha1) My cool "YOUR TURN!!!" Craft Skill!!!

Odile (urgh1) I'm not saying that.

Odile (gimme1) Okay, so next, let's--

Isabeau (huhwah1) WUH OH!!! M'DAME ODILE!!!

Odile (huh3) Ah--

---

ACT 1

(The Sadness is about to attack Odile!!!)

(Isabeau got in front of her--)

ACT 2

(The Sadness is targeting Odile again!!!)

(Isabeau will protect her again, won't he? They'll be fine, but--)

ACT 3 & 4

(You try not to flinch as Isabeau protects Odile.)

(The Universe wants this to happen.)

---

The Sadness attacks Isabeau, knocking him out.

Mirabelle (awawa1) ISABEAU!!!

Isabeau (sniff1) Owie... I'll see you all... In a minute...

A thud can be heard as Isabeau falls to the ground.

---

ACT 1 & 2

(Isabeau is K.O.!!!)

ACT 3 & 4

(Isabeau is K.O..)

---

Mirabelle (awawa1) Ah, ah--

Odile (guilty1) ...Are you okay?

Isabeau (neutral1) Oh, yeah, I'm fine.

Isabeau (neutral1) Don't you need someone to be K.O.'d for your tutorial anyway?

Odile (guilty1) ...

Odile (lol2) Very true. Let's keep this tutorial going then.

Odile (lol4) Thanks for playing along.

Isabeau (hahaha1) No problem!

Isabeau (sniff1) I'll stay right here then...

Bonnie (lol2) Stop talking! You're K.O., and K.O.'d people can't talk, dummy!!!

Isabeau (sniff1) Okay...

Mirabelle (anxious1) Hm... Is it really okay...?

Odile (gimme1) Anyway, when someone's Health Points, or HP, goes down to 0, they'll be out cold, and won't be able to fight anymore.

Odile (hm2) There's multiple ways to wake him up, like using a Crafted Water, or if Mirabelle knew a Craft Skill to revive him...

Odile (lol2) But how about we make this interesting? With...

Bonnie (no!2) Oh!!! I remember what those Scissors symbols are for!!!

Bonnie (and then1) IF WE DO A COMBO, AND HAVE FIVE OF THE SAME SYMBOL, WE CAN DO A "JACKPOT SKILL"!!!

Odile (yeah1) EXACTLY, Boniface.

Odile (lol1) And see? We already have a combo of three right here.

Mirabelle (anxious2) When we get five of the same symbol, whether Rock, Paper or Scissors, we'll be able to use a Jackpot Skill...

Odile (reading2) Only Rock, Paper and Scissors attacks count for the Jackpot, by the way.

Odile (gimme1) We should be careful with how we use those skills, but we can use any other type of skill or item without breaking the combo.

Isabeau (sniff1) Yay... A combo will save me... Please do a combo...

Odile (lol1) You heard the man.

Odile (lol2) Let's add two more Scissors symbols to our lineup, shall we?

Odile (fight1) Now get ready...!

The party does a Jackpot Skill!!!

Bonnie (yeah!2) YAHOO!!!

Mirabelle (happy2) We won!

Isabeau (hahaha1) AND I'M NOT OUT COLD ANYMORE!!!

Odile (gimme1) Every time we manage to use a Jackpot Skill, anyone who's out cold is revived, and we'll all get healed a little bit, as well.

Mirabelle (happy1) We should try to do combos as often as we can!

Isabeau (boo1) Hm... That's cool and all, but...

Isabeau (NO!1) But what if you won without doing that Jackpot Skill?! Would you have just left me there?!?

Mirabelle (awawa1) N-No, of course not!!! We have some items... We would have revived you!!!

Odile (lol2) We'll always revive anyone who's K.O. after a battle. Can't make unconscious people run around, can we?

Odile (lol1) Are you really this upset that we left you alone for two minutes?

Isabeau (neutral1) Nah, not really, I'm just doing my part.

Isabeau (fufufu1) Plus, the floor was nice and refreshing.

Bonnie (serious1) That's sad.

Odile (lol4) It is, but you're not supposed to say it aloud, Boniface.

Isabeau (really1) Hey?

Odile (yeah1) And that's the end of this little refresher. All good, Mirabelle?

Mirabelle (awawa1) Y-Yes! Thank you very much!!!
