Anyway, next question: could I cash in my reward for confirming Sanji as Editor now? Ah, I don't need the second half of my original question, though—I've already got that.
Besides the eradication of one faction, three survivors and seven plus objectives from each faction, and killing you or Tiger, what are the other possible endings?
In one alternative ending, the dead may be revived - however there will not be enough ink to return you all home. Instead, the castle will be your place to dwell.
In another alternative ending...
[Her hand rises to fall over her heart as she seems to breath a sigh.]
Should it have been fulfilled... those who have passed away would have not been revived, and it would not have been possible to send you home, and this castle would have become similar to the Other Side.
However, that ending is not possible anymore, thankfully.
[ . . . her expression softens for a fraction of a second - before she schools it back into something more neutral. It is an expression that was more common in the initial weeks of the game.]
I cannot answer that right now.
Should you succeed in leaving this trial without being convicted, ask me again.

You know what? Fine.
[it's fine. he can come up with a backup plan.]

You wish to proceed without Stephanie?

[ . . . she nods.]
I hope you will survive... If you do not, I will give her the half answer you earn during our next meeting. You have my word.
What is your question? I will provide half an answer, the same as you earned before.

... And those are the only other two?
no subject
Four in total, three of which remain.

... My last question is: if we survive this... is it possible to return to a world not our own?
[he shouldn't be asking this. he shouldn't give himself hope. and yet...]

I cannot confirm or deny.
But if you thought it worth asking me, I know it is important.
I am sorry that I cannot provide everything you seek all at once.
no subject
[well, it's better to assume it's impossible.
and with that, he switches over to his usual flippant self.]
Actually, one more question: what's with the hair?

Her eyes look relieved.]
Does it not suit me?

[Anyway:]
All matters have a reason behind them. Yet this is a fairly benign change. I cannot say I mind it.

Do you think he would have chosen pink?

Besides, it could be like the time where he didn't know what sulfur was and gave us all a gas leak scare?
no subject
That was...
[Her nose wrinkles subtly.]
Unfortunate.

... like everyone here, he does his best, presumably.
I cannot ask for more than that.

Our best isn't much, but we'll see.

... have a bit more faith.
If I can find it somehow, I believe you can too.

Perhaps it is.
But mushy is a better alternative to despair, I think, as long as there is reason behind the faith.
