Next up on the room visitation list is Karenina.
She simply lies on her bed, not doing anything.
"Oh, good evening, Benoit," she greets me.
I ask her, "Not doing anything? Because if I said 'you're slacking off', you would reprimand me."
"Why would I even raise my voice at you when you didn't do anything wrong in the first place? And yes, I am definitely not doing anything… but relaxing my body."
"Because tomorrow will be a little intense."
"Yes, it will. I've already accumulated enough energy I need in the past few days, and now I'm just taking it easy."
"Good point. Say… once we win this battle, trounce the villains once and for all, and return to our world… you have anything in mind?"
"Me? I don't have anything in mind. And I wonder why I enlisted in CAT, or the Ishi-shiro for that matter, in the first place."
"Sounds like you have the 'what course do I choose' syndrome. But seeing your gallantry, I think you'd do best as a vigilante-type superhero."
