[The vine appears, but does not produce a mirror. That would be too much effort for this. It was just a simple thing on her part, so it shouldn't take much. It was just the normal thing for voices and audio. The voice belonging to one Sayaka Miki, is more than a little confused.]

So... that was it? It's been a few days and I haven't seen anything else happen. This isn't just me being ignorant right? There really hasn't been anything else going on since that all suddenly ended, right?

And I don't want to hear anyone say "don't complain"!

It's a little disappointing, really...

[tookupthesword]

It was certainly an... experience.

[imperial_ray]

I guess I wouldn't mind, you know... being a mother.

[tookupthesword]

... Well, good for you. [She's not entirely sure how to respond to that one...]

[imperial_ray]

...

A-ah, sorry, I guess that was...

[undefines]

It was a little abrupt, wasn't it? [She harrumphes.] You would think something a little more definite would have happened, but I guess that isn't the case.

[tookupthesword]

Yeah, after all that... I dunno what to say I was expecting.

[undefines]

I'm a little glad they didn't hatch into anything, but... We could have at least been given something in return for taking care of them. As it is, it seems a little ungrateful.

[tookupthesword]

Now that you mention it... yeah, you have a point.

[fuzei]

By "that all," does one refer to the creatures in the eggs? [ She sounds very slightly curious. ]

[tookupthesword]

... In?

[fuzei]

[ She looks a little contemplative, then a bit worried. ] Was that not right? Aa... I am not certain!

[tookupthesword]

I thought they were just eggs!

[reverentresistance]

I haven't noticed anything else, either.

The purpose of the exercise seems to be not entirely clear, by any standards.

[tookupthesword]

Was there even one to begin with?

[reverentresistance]

Well, it could be an attempt to force bonding with our assigned partner. Or to care for the egg.

Or it could be an attempt to distract us from something else that was going on.

[tookupthesword]

I... didn't think about that last one.

[disillusionment]

Good. Now we'll be able to get some sleep.

[tookupthesword]

Someone's... bitter.

[disillusionment]

No, just tired.

[tookupthesword]

Remind me not to keep you up late if this is how you get when you're tired... [There is a rather distinct sound of being scared there...]

[orderlybento]

... Sayaka-san, it might be a little weird for me to ask, but...

What are you talking about?

[ Audio ]

[tookupthesword]

You don't know? About the eggs? That cried and stuff? Went on for about a week?

[ Audio ]

[orderlybento]

No, not at all! This is my first time hearing about this, actually.

[Looks down, then back up.] I think time just passed by really quickly for me.

[ Audio ]

[tookupthesword]

... Well, we got these eggs that appeared in basket cradles of vine, that cried for their mama, then became quiet when someone else came around. This went on for about a week.

They also had changing faces.
