Transcripts of the Today's Teatime Monthly Squad's Communication Recorders.
| Part 1 Unlocked at the start
| |
|---|---|
| Melantha | The Crimson Troupe. |
| Shalem | Yes. It's a stub for a Crimson Troupe performance. |
| Iris | But there's nothing written about what performance. |
| Shalem | The performers were puppets to the roles. The roles chose the program, impromptu. So naturally, nothing needed to be written. Where did you find this stub, Iris? |
| Iris | In the library of the Castle of Dreams. I assume it was Grandmother, or maybe another denizen, who left it. |
| Shalem | The Castle of Dreams... the age-old Victorian fairytale? |
| Iris | Mm. Yes, quite. I'm gathering that the Crimson Troupe is something similar? |
| Shalem | If it will satisfy your curiosity, then I can give you an precise answer. It is. But it's not something a child would yearn for. It's a terrifying tragedy, that strikes without warning. |
| Melantha | Shalem, are you okay? |
| Shalem | I'm sorry, I seem to have overreacted a little. But now that you know the truth, what will you do with this, Iris? |
| Iris | I ought to return it to where it was, shouldn't I? |
| Melantha | It sounds like a very reliable way to settle things. |
| Shalem | Phew... thank you. |
| Iris | Oh, my. The tea's gone cold. Could I trouble you to fetch us some fresh cups? |
| Shalem | (Faint chuckle) I would be glad to. |
| Part 2 Unlocked after entering the 3rd floor
| |
|---|---|
| Shalem | Are the two of you thirsty? I'll fetch some drinks. |
| Iris | Plain black tea for me, thank you. |
| Melantha | I'd like some lemon squash, Shalem. |
| Shalem | Black tea... lemon squash... alright, and how about a little pastry stand too? |
| Iris | Well! That would be wonderful. |
| Melantha | Yes, please. |
| Shalem | Just a moment, then. |
| Melantha | I swear we were here to have tea together. I wonder why he's suddenly serving us now... |
| Iris | Isn't it nice to have someone want to serve you? |
| Melantha | I suppose, but... |
| Iris | Oh, yes, this thing. Do you have any recollection of it? |
| Melantha | What is this... a red ticket stub? |
| Iris | Mm. I was back at the Castle of Dreams to look for something, and I found it being used as a bookmark. Grandmother wasn't home, I returned to find Bena and she had no clue either, and so my only option was to ask a fellow Victorian at a tea party. |
| Iris | Hmm... I really want to know what show this is! |
| Melantha | Curiosity killed the Feline, you know. You'd better be careful... |
| Part 3 Unlocked after entering the 5th floor
| |
|---|---|
| Shalem | Well... |
| Iris | It seems you know what this is, Shalem. |
| Melantha | That's fantastic. You went to the right person after all, Iris. |
| Shalem | I'm sorry, allow me a moment to think. |
| Iris | Fine. I'm not in a rush. |
| Melantha | (Faint sips of tea) |
| Shalem | Ah, I think I remember. It's– |
| Iris | It's? |
| Melantha | (Tail swishing) |
| Shalem | It's a voucher for a Londinium patisserie, madams. |
| Iris | You... You're telling fibs. |
| Shalem | I don't have any reason to– |
| Melantha | Londiniers aren't too keen on deep reds like this... |
| Iris | Well, now? Is the color that significant? |
| Shalem | Um... |
| Iris | My, Shalem, the blood's drained from your face. Let's look at this shade again, shall we? Is this the Crimson–what was it? |
| Shalem | Hrmm... You're very smart, Iris. |
