A Moment of Respite | |
|---|---|
 | Aaaah...Now THAT was a great hot spring. |
| I feel so relaxed and refreshed. |
| (Is this really the time to be taking leisurely dips in hot springs...? ) | |
 | Is something wrong, Master? You look troubled. I know what it is. |
 | You feel guilty that we're not off saving Kyoto from great evil. |
| Well, don't. Remember why we're here. |
| We need Poppy's help to dispel the barrier around Mount Oe. |
| And Poppy called a truce for now, so... |
 | If we break her rules, don't look at me when all hell breaks loose. |
| She might call in hordes of brutes or worse. |
| All we can do is wait out the evening. |
| Now's the time to lay back and rejuvenate our ethereal auras! |
| Lately all we've done is work work work! |
| Aren't you a little tired? |
| We have to keep our spirits up somehow. |
| Just as Sola's upbeat words begin to put me at ease. | |
| I notice something going on at the convenience store across the street. | |
| Well, color me inconvenienced! My booze is flying off the shelves and straight out door, literally! | |
 | Heh heh heh! Look brothers, this liquor is on sale-"five-finger discount"! |
| I guess that means we can just help ourselves! |
| Stop right there! Theft is a crime don't you know? |
| More to the point, Poppy should have told you there's a truce on tonight! |
| You should know better than to break the rules! |
| We would, if Poison S. Brew was calling the shots round here, but she ain't! |
| So beat it, or else! |
| What did you just say? You're not working together anymore? |
| Master, they're coming for us! |
