[Inside the automated trolley, the party has just come to a realization from Senshi that there is a chance Falin would return to normal if they eat all of her dragon parts]
Laios : But at least we've got clear goals now...

Laios : I'm suddenly feeling optimistic about this! But... What about Y/N?
[The inside of the trolley becomes quiet, remembering the moment Y/N got taken by Falin. That is until Senshi hums in deep thought, remembering the scene happening]
Senshi : From the fight, when Y/N and Kabru tried to find Falin's weak spot, Falin couldn't keep her eyes off Y/N. Everytime he gets close, it would makes sense if she were to attack him with a devastating blow...
Sensi : But she reacts to him. Even in that state, she knows who Y/N is...
Marcille : But she's trapped, Senshi! Thistle is twisting her mind! How can she possibly remember when being controlled?
Senshi : Controlling the body doesn't mean you own the heart... I may not know the history behind the love story behind Y/N and Falin, but the way how Y/N speaks softly and lovingly about her, it seems they have a great bond...
Chilchuck : It can honestly give someone a cavity if that was possible...
Senshi : There is a chance that the stronger bond she has with someone, deep down, she still has some senses to have the feeling of remembering them. It's just harder for her to show it through all that mind spell...
Laios : What if... If that's possible, what if Thistle sees Falin carrying Y/N like a toy?
Senshi : Thistle is no simple elf, nor an empty headed one. Even if she did take Y/N to him, Y/N had dropped all of his weapons during the fight and is put inside of Chilchuck's bag
Chilchuck : Something I'm still not a fan of...
Senshi : Y/N is rendered as a defenseless and powerless captive. Y/N by now should realise that Falin hasn't killed him, if he sees Falin with Y/N there's a chance that Y/N can pull this off if he plays his cards right...
Senshi : Thistle will view Y/N as a "Pet" or "Toy" for his Monster, his lack of weapon and power makes him non threating. If Y/N plays his cards right and makes himself look even more absolutely defenseless, he'll let Falin keep him as a toy...
[Everyone goes quiet with the thought of Y/N basically being in a life or genuine death situation]
Marcille : let's just hope that Y/N can pull this off...
[Everyone goes quiet again, until Chilchuck tries to ease the atmosphere]
Chilchuck : Y/N's not a complete idiot, eighty percent most likely, but not a complete one. He'll be safe, even if he is in danger, we'll save both of them...
[Laios and Marcille smile while Senshi and Izutsumi are a bit surprised by his words]
Marcille : That's very sweet of you–
Chilchuck : Oh shut. I owe him a few gold coins...
Marcille : ...Uh–for what?
Chilchuck : We had a bet. "Laios would stand up for himself if Shuro ever raises his voice at him" I bet it wouldn't have happened, it's only fair I keep my end of the bargain...
Laois : Aww, that's very–...Wait you bet it wouldn't happen?—
Chilchuck : Look on the bright side, at least he'll smile when I tell him that you slapped Shuro...
"...Oh my gosh somebody please help me..."
[In the deeper parts of the Dungeon, Falin is sleeping in a curled cat position, with Y/N in the empty spot at the center, his back leaning against her feathered body]
[While sleeping, Falin has her arms around his body while her head rests on his shoulder]
[Y/N carefully slides down, trying to escape her arms. When successful, he tries to tip toe his way out, but stops midway when he realises he's... about to leave Falin again...]
"...Gosh what do I do, I can't leave her! But She's... She's most likely gonna go to Thistle sooner or later when he calls her to do some monster errands... What do i–....Wait..."
[Y/N remembers every moment at the fight, he remembered the way Falin was staring at him with shock behind her eyes]
"Did... Did she know who I was–?!!"
[A massive, talon claw casually scoops Y/N off his feet and drags him back to the same spot. Falin wakes up and when he notices, Y/N goes entirely limp, offering the resistance of a wet noodle to keep her calm]
[Y/N stops limping like an idiot, noticing her staring right at him, with her head right next to him]
M!Reader : Are you... Falin, is that... Is that you–?!!
[Suddenly, Falin gives Y/N's cheek a long lick using her tongue, immediately blushing him]
M!Reader blushing : Okay–WHAT was that about?!
[Falin just keeps on staring at him, like the thing she just did is a casual thing. It's making him nervous again, sweating even]
M!Reader : Uhh... T-There there?
[Y/N pets her head, but she just tilts her head in confusion]
M!Reader : Can't blame me for trying. But, seriously, do... Do you... know me..?
[Falin doesn't move, yet still has the confused expression on her face. Y/N frowns, holding her cheek]
M!Reader : ...Sighs, if you were to kill me right now, there's no one I would rather see more before my final breath but you... This... This isn't the way I want us to reunite..
[Falin stares at the hand holding her, but then, she uses one of her own hands to hold onto the hand that's holding her cheek]
M!Reader : You... It seems you don't know me, but... you feel like you remember me... In a memory you probably forgot...
[Y/N starts to frown, remembering all of the memories between them]
[Tears starting to fall down through his eyes and Falin doesn't know how to respond]
M!Reader : O-Okay, okayokay–not now, let's... See the situation...
[Y/N stares at his surroundings, seeing everytime is clearly more dangerous, an area he has yet to see in the Dungeon]
M!Reader : These walls are clearly different, woah... You brought me deeper into the dungeon...
[Falin has her head really close next to him, making him jolt by the sudden closeness. Her pupils dilated and golden shimmering eyes staring right at him, making him blush redder than before]
M!Reader blushing : ...Well at least I know I'm safe...
M!Reader : But what about Thistle... If he calls you and you're clearly gonna force me to follow you, he sees me, and I'll absolutely get deleted...
[Y/N is in deep thought, trying to think the best way to stay alive]
M!Reader : ...There's no other choice, my weapons are gone, I'm exhausted from fighting and being dragged by you, the best option is to basically be nothing more but a ragdoll for you... If he sees me completely on the brink of death, there's a chance he'll let you keep me... But, the problem is that I still look like I can still be healed...
[Y/N stares around him. He then makes an expression that says, "You have got to be kidding me..." Because he sees a medium size rock right next to him on the ground]
M!Reader : ...This is gonna hurt...
[Before Y/N grabs the rock, he looks back at Falin, only to look shock at the amount of stab wounds on her human body area]
M!Reader : Jeez, I forgot Kabru attacked you... It seems you even survived it with ease...
[Y/N grabs the rock from the ground, gripping it in his hand]
M!Reader : Sighs, My dear, you're about to see a guy beat the crap out of himself with a rock...
