Orchid:
> I’ll play with you...
Blue:
"Lovely! I do enjoy a good game..”
"Listen closely."
"h1 to a8."
"a1 to h8."
"b4, g4, b5, g5..
"d2.. d7. e2.. e7."
"Finally, c1 and f8."
Orchid:
> Hm.. something like this?
Blue:
"Clever detective..”
"I had a feeling it was you."
"Here's your next test then."
> I wonder how far you are willing to take this.
Orchid:
“Let’s see..”
“…”
> Depends… what do I get if I win?
Blue:
“Mm..”
> What would you want?
Orchid:
> The truth about who you actually are.
“Do we have a deal.. Doctor?”
Blue:
> But that is only if you win.
> And what would I get in return?
> This deal doesn’t seem appealing to me…
> I have no obligation to you…
> Unless you’d give me something I want.
Orchid:
> Tell me what you want then…
> And if I lose… you can have it.
> Is that a more appealing offer to you now?
Blue:
> It’s a simple, small request.
“You’ll barely be inconvenienced.”
> I want … you.
Orchid:
“…m-me?”
> Why would you want … me?
Blue:
> You proved yourself to me the moment you answered these ciphers.
"You are an interesting specimen..”
"Are you opposed to the idea then?"
"I will not stay and bother you any longer if so."
Orchid:
> Fine
> I accept your terms.
> If I win, I get answers.
> And if you win, you get … me.
“…”
> But I’m not a specimen.
Blue:
"Oh, but you are~!"
"You're all the same at the end of the day"
"Made of blood, bone, and soul."
"Am I wrong? I know I am not."
"You are all such fascinating things."
"So wonderfully.. intelligent"
"So.. ostensibly small. Insignificant."
"A mere fly in the grand scheme of things."
"And yet...”
"So.. blasphemously beautiful."
"Now, now."
"Shall we play, detective darling~? :D”
Orchid:
"And you.. are substantially arrogant."
“Let’s play.”
Blue:
“Might I suggest you pick a side?”
“Good choice, darling~!”
“Now, now.. your move.”
Orchid:
“…Stop trying to distract me.”
“Are you so worried you might lose that you need to r-resort to that?”
Blue:
“Hm? Oh, no.”
“You misunderstand me..”
“This is just how I act, dearest!”
“Checkmate.”
“Good game, my dear. That was so much fun!”
Orchid:
[No Spoken Dialogue]
Blue:
“Detective, dear..”
“We had a deal.”
“Do not tell me you were merely just lying.”
“That’s not nice.”
“Stay…”
“And listen..”
“You know.. you had so much potential.”
“You would have made a wonderful detective, Orchid.”
“So clever and brave. You’ve proven yourself with me in mere hours.”
“And all they do is throw you out for who you are?”
“Such a shame.. they missed out on a brilliant member.”
“But I am here now.”
“And I know you’d be a wonderful spy assistant for me, yes?”
“Do not worry, pet.”
“I will value you so long as you listen to me.”
Orchid:
“N-No, I wasn’t lying, I just..”
“Yes… I will.”
