> Alice: Maybe you should make DT something to act as a sheath? Something very basic would probably work well enough for right now.

Alice: I'm not sure I trust you to be carrying that.
DT: Hahaha!
DT: Have a little more faith in me, Master.
DT: I've as much skill with it as you! 'w'
Alice: It's not that, rotary cutters really are dangerous. A girl at sewing club tripped and she bled on *everything*.
Alice: If you can't put it away, you should carry it on something.
DT: Like what?
DT: I'm not like you, Master.
DT: I may be able to physically carry some things, but they don't work the same way on me they would on you.
DT: And if I change back, I’ll just drop them. So it's best to keep the amount of items on me to a minimum.

> Speculate on the items you found. The handle of the large knife does look like your ruler, as well as looking like a thread knife. The kilt too, as the plates may have come from the needle plate. Perhaps your newly acquired items were made from the ones you're missing since they look rather similar? Either way, someone or something was in your room and put this together.



For some reason it occurs to you that the weapon and kilt may have been created with the items that have been purloined from your closet, but how could that be? The pattern and material on the kilt are clearly different, and the scissors and metal plate are too small.

The thought seems strange and leaves you feeling unsettled. First you suspect your brother and now you are making random conclusions that make little to no sense.

Are these thoughts really yours?

Alice: ...DT, is there any way I could know if I'm being manipulated by a monster?
DT: Not for sure...
DT: You seem to have some sort of natural form of resistance to at least *some* Illusions, but I don't know if that's because of your aspect or just because of how you are.
DT: Perhaps even both!
DT: But unless you notice on your own, I wouldn't be able to tell you.
Alice: Maybe we should stay in for the night.
Alice: I don't know if I want to go out if I'm not sure who's making the decisions here.
DT: ...You're the boss, Master.
DT: But if you really are that concerned about a monster trying to manipulate you, perhaps we should at least try to find it.
Alice: ...Maybe.

> Alice: remember that there was another soul in the house that you didn’t grab, it'd be good to go get that.

Alice: We forgot to pick one of the souls last time, didn't we?
DT: Well, we were pretty preoccupied. >w>
Alice: Did you get any new ones since?
DT: Not that I know of.
Alice: ...You guy have been slacking, huh.
DT: Hey, it's not as easy when it's just us! Especially with the door prankster.
Alice: You saw them?
DT: No, but Raziel might have.
DT: He got locked in the pantry.
Alice: How??
DT: Hahaha, who knows.
DT: He was the one banging on the door, you know?
DT: Ran one of my clones over when I finally went to have a look. >w>
Alice: Wow.
DT: Oh, I wouldn't go into the pantry if I were you.
DT: Whatever was inside gave Raziel a beating, and I doubt he finished it off, because the first thing he did after getting out was block the door with a chair.
Alice: How did you open it?
DT: The door?
DT: Key was on the floor.
Alice: ...Seriously?

> Alice: Raziel is fast. See if he can track down the thieving pest and report back without incident.

Alice: Raziel, did you see some weirdo coming in and stealing my things?
Alice: ...
Alice: Guess that's a no.
Alice: How are you as a tracker?
DT: You're sending him out on his own? I thought you wanted to get the soul.
DT: Unless you plan on us splitting up?
Alice: ...
