> Nino: EAT THE FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD! >Nino: Bask in the glory of the muffin, the pastry of flavors and aromas, all love its glorious, holy, DELICIOUS muffinitude of muffinicity.
Nino: Holy shit. Aria: You're probably wondering how you got here! Aria: I made Ludwig carry you along the way. Aria: We got some weird looks but nobody really bothered enough to intrude and ask anything, thankfully. Aria: I wouldn't know what to say if anyone stopped me to question what I'm doing with an unconscious boy on a dog! Nino: Yeah, yeah sure, awkward, so about those MUFFI- Aria: Oh!! I almost forgot that Kotori asked me something earlier! Aria: She said wants to talk to you about something in private. Aria: I haven't the slightest clue as to what it might be though! Nino: Sure sure sure I'll do whatever, anyway the muf- Aria: But I'm sure it's nothing bad, there's no need to be nervous... Aria: I mean, you don't look nervous so that's good! Nino: YEAH I'm PERFECTLY fine I just want- Aria: You know how intimidating Kotori is, she always looks angry. Aria: But deep down she's a nice person! Nino: Aria plea- Aria: Plus, my disguise fooled her earlier, so I'm sure it'll all go smoothly! Nino: ARIA!! Aria: W-what is it??? Don't shout! Nino: I GIVE NO SHITS ABOUT WHOMEVER! Nino: I'LL DO THE THING! Nino: BUT FIRST, Nino: THE MUFFINS!
>Aria : Nino is frothing from the mouth due to those muffins! Prepare for muffin based combat.
Aria: You're drooling. Aria: You also forgot the magic wooord... Nino: OKAY FINE sorry for shouting!! Nino: PLEASE, please, can I have just ONE muffin. Nino: I said the magic word TWICE, SEE. Aria: Well.... Aria: No! Nino: What!!! Nino: Why not! Nino: I'm really hungry, c'mon! Aria: Nobody can eat these muffins yet. Aria: Not yet. Not unless... Nino: Not unless...??
-->
Aria: Not unless I prepare tea to go along with them! Nino: ... Nino: That is... Nino: Absolutely... Nino: The MOST pointless thing I've heard today. Aria: It isn't pointless! Aria: Muffins go fabulously with a warm cup of tea in this chilly weather! Nino: Have you no HEART, Aria. Nino: I SWEAR I haven't eaten in DAYS! Nino: OKAY well actually to be honest I don't exactly know how long it's been, Nino: BUT the point is that it FEELS like days! Aria: If you've waited for that long, then you can stand to wait for a few more minutes. Aria: It wont take me long to prepare us 3 fresh cups. Aria: Besides, It'll be like a fun little tea party for Five! Nino: ARIA, PEOPLE ARE STARVING. Nino: You CRUEL, COLDHEARTED MURDERER. Aria: There is absolutely no changing my mind, eating muffins without tea is a SIN. Aria: So just wait patiently for a little bit more you doofus! Nino: HHHHRMGH. Aria: You'll thank me later because the taste of muffins with a cup of tea is incredible. Aria: I'm doing you a favor here, you just don't see it! Nino: AAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaagh fine! You win!!
-->
Disregarding your pathetic numerous attempts at pleading, Aria merrily skips off to prepare the tea, leaving you in the dust with a growling stomach and an aching head.
-->
Absolutely ridiculous.
This is SO unfair, but you GUESS you just have to put up with it, for the sake of Five's tea party. She deserves it after what she's been through! And also you guess tea sounds pretty nice right about now.
Speaking of Five, you wonder what she's up to?
>Nino: check on Five.
You stumble out of Aria's bed in quite a messy drunken manner, which won't be illustrated for the sake of saving what little dignity you have left, and finally you wobble over to where five is. Man, you should've slept some more.
Five looks like she's drawing something.

Try to imitate her.

>Nino: Eat the drawing due to extreme hunger.
Ok sure you're just going to stuff this piece of paper down the hatch, get it all nice and snug down there, delicious, best meal of your goddamn life.
> Start eating a crayon because you're just that hungry.
Oh yeah shove that too down your trap you garbage boy. You disgusting person. Nothing in this world will survive your immense hunger. Truly, such fearful craving knows no bounds.
What a horrifying sight.
-->
Just kidding, no way in hell you'd do any of that.
Although, those colorful scented crayons are looking real slick. That mandarin orange, the blueberry blue...
Lemonade yellow, brownie brown, strawberry pink...
-->
You struggle to restrain yourself for a fraction of a second.
This situation is not dire enough for crayon consumption. Not yet, you tell yourself.
>Nino: Look and comment at the art.
Nino: Hey Five! Nino: What are you up to? Five: Nino! Five: Nino... Feeling better? Nino: Yeah! Although insanely hungry, but I'll manage. Nino: What's that you got there? Five: Aria gave Five... Present! Five: Present is... Crayons! Nino: That's nice! Five: Five was drawing... waiting for Nino to wake up. Five: Five wants Nino to see drawings!
>Nino: Compliment Five's drawing.
Five shows you the first drawing she has.
It appears to be a drawing of a regular fully grown golden flywer!
But that's strange, you're sure flywers only grow in the winged overworld and the human world.
You briefly wonder how Five knows about them, but your thought is interrupted as she looks at you expectantly.
You tell her that her drawing is very pretty.
She grins and shows you the other drawing.
>Nino: Look the art.
This is...
Nino: Draw with five. Do a bit of Father-Daughter I mean er... Brother-Sister... no? Just freaking bond already.
A drawing of people you don't think you recognize.
You try to think about who these people might be, but you're again interrupted by Five asking if you want to take a turn drawing with her.

Sure. Draw some scenes from the human world. May as well make it a full cultural exchange. Try to get the gist of civilization in there.

((i edited the latest page from the previous update a bit!))
It's a drawing of people you don't think you recognize.
You try to think about who these people might be, but you're again interrupted, this by Five pulling away the drawing. She passes a clean paper towards you and asks if you want to take a turn drawing with her.
>Nino: say yes.
Fucking bring it on.
You DRAMATICALLY make a swift grab for a stray blue crayon.
It's time to show this cocky small child who's the TRUE artmaster here.
-->
With the force of one thousand burning suns multiplied by a hundred, you furiously ETCH your lines on the paper. Hotblooded action music would be playing right now if this were a scene in one of your favorite ANIME shows, no doubt. You're already imagining it in your head.
Soon enough, you slow down the sheer force you're pulling into your strokes, stopping your movement before the paper rips apart.
You've finished your masterpiece.
This is the best fucking drawing anyone's ever done.
...Okay, maybe not, maybe that's just the RUSH in your FLEETING ARTISTIC HEART making it seem good... But it's not like, thaaaaat bad, right?
You guess you'll let Five be the judge.
>Nino: Realize you can't draw.
Unfortunately, she's one tough crowd to please. Five nods in disapproval at your drawing.
Okay fine, maybe you'll admit it now.
You SUCK at art!! It's so hard!!
How does ANYONE do it, You ponder this deep question every day of your life. Surely, the answer couldn't be something as simple as... "practice", now, could it? Art creation probably, probably, PROBABLY involves either witchcraft, or corpses, or portals to bewitching alien dimensions.
You're 90% sure it involves at least one of those.
Oh well, you may not be an artist, but you know what would appeal to someone like Five. You're not giving up yet.
Sure. Draw some scenes from the human world. May as well make it a full cultural exchange. Try to get the gist of civilization in there.
You draw your earliest memory, a colorful garden from the human world. This is a good and respectful gesture of cultural-exchange-but-not-really-ish!
Double emphasis on "colorful".
You use every bright crayon you get your hands on. These colors are so bright, so loud, so annoying, and piercing your eyeballs. You can't even keep your eyes on it.
Perfect.
-->
As you expected, Five loves your drawing! How predictable.
She appears to be too dazzled by the bright not-really-a-rainbow of colors to notice how shoddy the drawing is. Success.
>Nino: sniff is that... sniff TEA? 
It is tea! And more importantly, the muffins! Looks like Aria finally finished preparing everything. The aroma is irresistible.
-->
You set up the table with Aria, and take your share of tea and muffin.
A nostalgic homely, comfortable mood sets as everyone busies themselves with the treats. You kind of missed not feeling danger lurking from every corner around, safety sure is nice.
This seems like the perfect time to ask Aria or Five about anything on your mind...
What should you talk about, and with whom?

Ask about the house!
I bet you didn't think "Monsters" lived in houses. You thought they just, I dunno, squatted in caves, or whatever.
Who built it? Where did you get all the books from? You can grow TEA down here?
SO MANY QUESTIONS?!

>Ask about Aria's life before she fell into the monster world.
Nino: Hey so, I'm a little curious... Nino: I hope this isn't intruding on your business or anything. Nino: But I was wondering, how did you used to live before coming to this world? Aria: Ahaha well, I've always been living in the monster world with my family. Aria: I didn't really "come" here, I was always in this world. Nino: Huh? But... Nino: How come? Nino: Monsters hate humans! Nino: There's no way you could just... Live with monsters like that! Aria: Um....Nino, what are you talking about? Aria: Don't you know all of this already? Aria: Monsters and humans used to be able to live together. Aria: You know, before the war and all that??
-->
Nino: ...War?
-->
Aria: Okay, something is definitely wrong with you. Nino: Hey, that's rude! Aria: How could you suddenly not remember anything about the war? Aria: Considering, um, your previous reaction to it... Aria: Did you not have enough sleep? Nino: ...Maybe not... Nino: Everything in my head feels fuzzy when I try to remember anything about that. Aria: That's probably it! You're too fatigued to focus. Aria: I suppose I could help freshen up your memories as well as answer your question then! Aria: It's a bit of a long history, but I'll try to summarize it as much as I can. Nino: I'll be counting on you. Aria: Okay! So, listen closely...

Was the war mostly fought physically, with soldiers? Or was magic involved? Who started it? How did it end? What was the goal?

Nino: Listen attentively to the story... but be too hungry to have any strong reaction to it. Also the tea is... mediocre to say the least, but at least act like you like it for Aria's sake. 
Aria: Monsters and humans used to live without a divide between them.
Aria: The two worlds naturally overlapped, and you could freely move from one to the other.
Aria: Monsters and humans were on seemingly good terms.
Aria: But they did not truly accept one another beneath the surface.
Aria: Because of that, it was frowned upon to surround yourself with monsters if you're a human, and vise versa.
Aria: But it wasn't exactly disallowed, so many monsters and humans adapted this lifestyle.
Aria: My family was one of these, we settled in a humble small village around here long ago!
Nino: Oh, really?
Nino: How was the life there? Wouldn't you have had a hard time because of the other monsters?
Nino: Also this tea is kind of bland, sorry.
Nino: ...Not that I don't like it, of course, haha--
Aria: Oh shush, I just ran out of sugar! It'll taste better with the muffins!
Nino: Fine, whatever you say.
Nino: ...Oh uh! Sorry for interrupting, please continue!
Aria: It's alright! As long as you're listening!
Aria: So anyway...
Aria: It was a comfortable life in a quiet place, away from the never ending political disagreements between monsters and humans at that time.
Aria: Although, like you said, it was indeed hard to be a human in a majorly monster populated area.
Aria: I never had any friends just because I was human, and sometimes the rest of the monster kids shunned me...
Aria: But I wasn't lonely! I had my family with me.
Was the war mostly fought physically, with soldiers? Or was magic involved? Who started it? How did it end? What was the goal?
Aria: Well, I guess wasn't lonely until after the war.
Aria: That was when the divide between the two worlds came to be.
Aria: The divide ended the war, because it made moving from one world to the other impossible to achieve.
Aria: Not only that, but it trapped everyone inside with a strong dome barrier.
Aria: I'm sure you know what the dome is, right?
Nino: Of course I do!! It's the layer covering the sky!
Nino: I wouldn't forget what I see every day, you know!
Aria: O-okay sorry, I'm just making sure!
Nino: Well, just keep going. I'm listening.
Nino: Actually, wait, I have some questions...
Was the war physically fought? Was there magic?
Aria: Of course it was physically fought, with soldiers from both sides...
Aria: But, uh...
Aria: Magic?
Aria: Nino, you big goof.
Aria: Magic isn't real!
Nino: Hey don't make fun of me!
Nino: I'm just, uhh, refreshing my memory, Yeah! Totally.
Aria: Suuure, sure.
Nino: Something tells me you don't believe that.
Aria: You're just too silly sometimes.
Nino: >:[
Nino: Well, I have more questions.
Nino: Who started the war, and why?
Aria: Nino, I don't know everything!
Aria: I'm sure the web of political disagreements between monsters and humans is something far too daunting for me to try and figure out!
Nino: Fiiine okay, that's fair I guess.
Aria: So, moving on...
>Aria: This has defined this world's history.
Aria: because of the death of the previous prince in the war, and this world nearly dying as a result of it...
Aria: Everyone was trapped, and everything was left in shambles.
Aria: Until the new prince rebuilt it all.
Aria: And then, he made a promise to everyone inhabiting the new world.
Aria: "You will not be harmed again", were his exact words.
Aria: He did not allow humans to be in this world anymore.
Aria: And this new rule is what defined this world's history.
-->
Aria: Every remaining human stuck on the monster world got eradicated.
Aria: Even my own family.
Aria: I thought I was a goner too, but my disguising ability came in handy.
Aria: And thanks to it, I'm still surviving even now.
-->
Nino: ...
Nino: I'm really sorry to hear that, it must've been awful.
Aria: It's fine, please don't be sorry!
Nino: I really don't like seeing you sad like that, I-I guess.
Nino: Sorry if that's a weird thing to say.
Nino: Your face is the face of someone who should only be smiling.
Nino: Okay THAT was definitely weird, I'm sorr-
Aria: Nino, stop apologizing oh my gosh.
Aria: I'm not sad, it's just because I'm remembering tough times!
Aria: But it's alright now, I promise.
Aria: Because I'm not lonely anymore!
Aria: I have Kotori, and now you and Five...
Aria: So don't worry about it at all!
Nino: Well if you say so... But are you sure it's really fine?
Aria: Yup!
Aria: I would hate to make people worry about me, so please don't worry anymore.
Aria: ...I guess I darkened the mood a little, ehehe...
Nino: No no, it's fine! I was the one who asked, it's not your fault.
Aria: Well, let's try and change the subject!
Aria: Do you have anything else you want to ask about?
