[VP-tan ushers you into your color-coded team rooms, before bowing respectfully.]

Please start out by telling each member of your team something you like about them, while I finish up. It should only take a moment.

… [ Welp, that stings again. Aoko purses her lips … before just sighing, shoulders slumping. ]

The Cats are already closer now than they ever were before. It's a small start, but it's something ... and I'm confident that we can make our hopes for the team into a reality, Panther-san. We'll get there.

[ Sorry Aoko, that's the kind of man he is. ]

Likewise. It might take a while and we'll probably lose people through it all but we shouldn't give up on it.

[ SHE IS STARTING TO REALIZE … … getting to know him is going to be a Process, and will probably involve many, many instances of Hurt Feelings. But as long as he doesn't go all Jack Panther, it should. Be okay?!? She can hope. ]

Mm, we will. That's ... always been the case. But, that's still no reason not to keep moving forward.

[ clasps her hands behind her back. ]

And anyway, I'm confident that we'll be able to get everybody back in the end. There's no way we're gonna leave them stuck in the mirrors forever.

[ He doesn't say things to hurt anyone intentionally or is outright malicious. He just doesn't mince words. IDK what Jack Panther was like.... ]

Getting everyone back from their mirrors and taking down our "new" patron. Granted one of those things should be done sooner than the other.

Things easier when you can work together.

[ the trials and tribulations of being an insecure teenage girl!! she responds better to sensitivity and empathy. ]

We can do it, definitely. It sounds like we all want to.

[nodo]

[ His strongest points are neither one of those things but he can empathize better than he can be sensitive. ]

Sounds like it, for sure. Nice to know that we're all finally on the same page regarding this.

[justichthys]

Speaking as one of the first … it really is amazing to see.

[nodo]

It is. Only took us this long and to these extremes, but whatever works.

[justichthys]

… Well, considering how things used to be, I can't say it's a surprise that it took this long.

[ Tugs on her scarf, fidgeting with it. ]

Our team used to have bigger problems than just not talking.
