Five looks likes she's expended a lot of patience here.
For that matter, what does Aria do around town to earn money?
I wonder what ability Five has/will gain later?
Aria -> Just take some deep breaths, vent about the idiocy and lack of tack of some people.
Five -> Assure Aria that her complaints, though valid, are nothing to be worried about, by listening intensely and responding in no major way.

>Aria: Just put the crayon to the paper and drag it across the surface. Don't think about what to draw, just draw anything. Draw your feelings.

No.. Not really, it's more like the baby is sitting YOU.
What a sad miserable person you are, you've already let Nino down, and now you're letting a small child down too. She REALLY wants you to try drawing something with her to feel better, but you REALLY don't want to do anything except shrivel up and die right now.
You briefly wonder what Nino's up to? Probably talking with Kotori, you guess.
You regret driving him out so much.
>Five: Encourage Aria to draw something nice.
Aria: ...Do you really want me to draw? Five: Yes!! Five: Aria... Feel better after! Aria: Well, fine. Aria: But I don't know what to draw. Aria: I don't really want to do anything right now. Five: Oh... Five: ...When Five is sad... Five draws... happy things! Five: Five draws... Friends! Family! Home! Five: Aria... try to draw home, to feel happy? Aria: I guess I can try, if you really want me to. Aria: I don't think of my home as a happy thing, though. Five: Aria... do you... like home? Aria: Do I...? Aria: I don't really... love it here, but I don't exactly hate it. Aria: I think it's nice that I feel safe here, but... Aria: I've never been able to trust anyone I know. Aria: Since I'm human, I've always had to keep some distance from others. Aria: It was... very lonely. Aria: I don't want to feel that same loneliness again. Aria: ...Sorry Five, I'm just... dumping all of this on you aren't I. Aria: I'll stop now, let's draw if you want to! Five: No, no... Five... Five thinks... Five: ...If Aria doesn't like this home... Then this isn't Aria's home!
Aria -> Just take some deep breaths, vent about the idiocy and lack of tack of some people.
Five: Five knows! Nino told Five before! Home is where you belong! Five: Aria... belong here? Aria: Oh. Aria: I guess I don't... Belong in this world, after all. Aria: I'm just pretending that I do, every day. Aria: There's no way out, really... Five: But Aria, happy with friends? Five: Happy with... Nino? Aria: ...Sigh, yes... Aria: I'm much happier when I can be myself with him, and he's a really kind person too! Aria: The brief time I've spent with you and him is valuable to me. Aria: No matter how small it may be, I really treasure it. Aria: I don't want to say goodbye, but he has to return to his home eventually... Five: Aria, it's okay!! Five: Five knows that home can be... friends too! Not just place! Five: So... If Aria is happy with friends... then friends are Aria's home! Five: Aria, come with Nino and Five to be happy!! Aria: F-five, I can't trouble Nino like that! Aria: I'd just be a nuisance... Five: That's... not true! Five: ...Nino... Happy with Aria, and Five loves Aria! Five: Nino said Nino will help Five... find home again... Five: So... Nino doesn't mind... helping Aria, too! Aria: I... I don't know... Aria: But... Five, is this world not where you belong? Aria: You're a monster, not a human, isn't this your home? Five: No! Five: Even though... Five is a monster, Five doesn't want to be here! Five: Five wants... to find Five's friends, again. Five: ...Five's home... is with friends! Five: If friends aren't here, then this isn't home!
>Aria: Ask Five what she's drawing.
Five: Nino told Five... Nino will find Five's Friends for Five. Five: That's why... Five will go with Nino. Aria: Your friends... Aria: Is that what you're drawing? Five: Yes!! Five drew friends, here!! Aria: Oh my, these are all your friends? Aria: You had both human and monster friends... Aria: I guess... the human world is accepting to both? Aria: It sounds much better than here... Five: Yes!! Five's friends are... Five: Big sis... Prince... Friend... And guard! Aria: :0 Aria: A Prince... Aria: ...And a sister? Five: Five thinks... no! Five: Sis is... caretaker... Five: Five's nurse and friend, not real sister!! Five: Sis, just a nickname! Aria: Huh... Aria: She's a nurse? Were you in a hospital or something? Aria: Oh, is that why you drew yourself on a wheelchair? Five: Yes!! Ummm... Five remembers...
-->
Five: Five was... very sick... Five: ...And weak. Five: Everything was dark... and grey...
-->
Five: But, one day... Five: Someone... came to take Five.
>Five: Tell story.
Five: Sis came to take Five... Five: There was... a bright light!! Five: Five was... going to new home!
-->
Five: Five was very... scared... but... Five: It was.. the first time Five saw... beautiful colors. Aria: Colors? Five: Yes!! Bright... Happy and friendly colors!!
-->
Five: Every day at Five's new home was... Colorful!! Five: Friends all had special colors... Warm colors. Five: Many new people come to visit... every day! Five: On Five's birthday, sis made a big... party! Five: With monster and human friends!! Aria: That sounds really fun! Your friends must be very nice people! Aria: I wish it were acceptable to do something like that here. Five: Aria, that's why Five thinks... Aria should come!! Five: With Nino and Five, to human world! Five: Five is sure... it will be fun with Five's friends there! Aria: I don't know... Aria: It does sound... fun, though. Aria: Well, what happened to your friends, since you got separated from them? Aria: Do you know where they are now? Five: Five... isn't sure... Five: The last thing Five remembers, is Five's birthday. Five: After the party... Five went to sleep at night time.
-->
Five: The next morning... Five woke up. Five: Five looked around, but home was... empty. Five: It was dull... and dark. Five: So Five left home, alone... Five: It was scary... And lonely.. without friends. Five: Five walked, and walked... and walked... so long. Five: There was nothing, for... a long time... Five: But, finally...
-->
Five: But Five finally... found friends again!! Five: Five found... Friend!!
-->
Five: But, when Five called out to friend... h-he...
-->
Five: Under the... orders of Prince... Five: Five was... |

>Consoled: Console your consoler
Aria: Five, that's enough. Five: H-huh... Aria: You don't need to continue. Aria: It'll be alright, I promise!
-->
Aria: Me and Nino will find your friends for you!
>Nino: wonder how you got to this point in life, that you are getting mugged by anime maids.
Everything in your life, everything in the universe, all that was, and all that will be, it all inevitably lead to you getting your ass kicked by a bunch of maids. This is a fact that maids robbing you was just a thing that was supposed to happen to you all along, at this exact point of your life. And you absolutely hate it.
For what purpose doth man breath, just to be humiliated henceforth? Are we not mere puppets, overwhelmed by the flow of time and destiny? Isn't this very destiny the cruelest mistress any man knows of? Shall thou dare to oppose destiny, you WILL find yourself lacking belongings, laying face first on a sidewalk, infinitely dwelling on your pathetic state. Ok this is getting out of hand, ow, your everything hurts right now.
>Nino: heal your post-traumatic stress disorder away.
That's not a thing you can do, unfotunately, so you'll probably have nightmares about this forever from now on.
What kind of barbarian maids set up a shop just to ROB people, and why is that allowed here?? And why were you stupid enough to go check a shady Inn?? You're blaming Kotori for not making such a thing ILLEGAL in this goddamn hellhole.
They took literally everything they could except for the useless NOTE, and your SWORD. Apparently it was too human-fashioned for their tastes.
And of course, your ability. No one can just take other people's abilities, you think.
Their worst crime, though, is taking the RED TULIP you "bought" for Aria!! Now you'll have to go back shamefully empty handed.
>Nino: gtfo.
Oh well, you didn't get any clues on Kotori there, so you guess you have to depend on yourself to find her now. As if you weren't doing that already, nobody here is helpful.
These two paths are the only ones left to check.
-->
You decide to go down the bottom path first.
>Aria: Comfort Five, and maybe take her to Nino.
Five: Really? Aria's coming... too? Aria: Yup! I changed my mind! Aria: I want to help you find your home again. Aria: And I want to leave this world where I don't belong! Five: Five... is so... happy! Five: Five wants... to tell Nino!! Aria: You're right! Let's go find Nino. Aria: I need to apologize to him... And ask if I can accompany you two!
-->
Oh, hey, it's Ludwig!
...Does Aria just leave him out here, you wonder. Does Ludwig have no dog house? That's criminal!!!
>Nino: Talk to Ludwig.
You greet the big grey beast. He responds with a short "boof".
Very polite conversation.
Perhaps the townspeople would be unsettled with the presence of a ghost dog like Ludwig, which could be why he's been out here alone this whole time.
Though, you'd definitely understand why someone would want to come here.
>Nino: Look up
Because this view is stunning.
>Nino: Check that sign.
The sign reads...
"Path to Prince Suvillan's tower.
Under reconstruction."
A small triangular caution sign rests painted under the text. Seems like there's no going further than this, then.
You guess Kotori's in the other path.
-->
You can easily detect the location of the mirage you set on Nino, looks like he's a few ways down! Finding him wont be difficult.
Wait, is that... Kotori? |

To be honest, I was expecting the Maids to extort Nino into healing, like a Doctor-servitude sort of deal.
Hrm. Actually, he might be able to earn some coin by healing people who catch food poisoning.
(I love the backstory building with Five ==> Really glad we chose to heal her early on and not fight her)
Well, I bet Kotori has orders from the prince. And as soon as she says so, those words are going to spook Five. Off to the castle then with ye?

You wonder what Kotori's doing all the way out here?
Hey, she's probably seen Nino if she's here! You cheerfully call out to your friend.
-->
Aria: Kotori!! Aria: Hi!! Kotori: Oh, hey. Aria: I was wondering where you'd be, since you said you wanted to talk to Nino earlier. Aria: Seeing as you're out here, you've probably already finished whatever business you had with him... Kotori: Mm. Kotori: No, I haven't yet. Aria: Oh, is that so? Aria: I'm going to go see Nino right now for... Something! Aria: You could come with, if you'd like to! Kotori: Mm. Aria: Yeah!! Um, are you feeling alright, anyway? Aria: You seem a bit out of it... Kotori: I'm fine. Aria: ...If you say so! Aria: I know how stressful your work is, though, so... Aria: I prepared some muffins earlier, and kept a piece for you! Aria: I can get you the muffins I made after we go get Nino, if you'd like me to! Aria: I can't imagine how tired you'd be after your work, so feel free to stop by to relax over a warm cup of tea and muffins! Aria: Still!! I'm really curious, what is your business with Nino all about? Aria: I know I probably shouldn't prod if it's something private... Aria: But I'm so curious!! I really want to know! Aria: Regardless, Nino's a really nice person, I'm sure you'll enjoy any talk with him. Aria: Ehehe, I shouldn't tell you this, but you should've seen how terrified he was when I told him you asked to meet him! Aria: Even though there's nothing to be afraid of! Kotori: Aria. Aria: Ah, what is it?
-->
Kotori: Aria. Kotori: That's enough. Aria: O-Oh-- Aria: I'm sorry, was I talking too much again... Aria: I'm just excited to see yo-- Kotori: Aria. Kotori: Listen. Kotori: I have something important to say.
-->
Kotori: I don't know what's right or wrong anymore. Kotori: It's too late for those thoughts, by now. Aria: K-Kotori...? Aria: What are you... Kotori: But there's only one thing I'm certain of right now. Kotori: I've been doing the same thing for too long. Kotori: I need to break out.
-->
Kotori: All I can do right now is trust my gut. Kotori: And fulfill my purpose. Kotori: To protect this world, no matter what it takes. Kotori: That's why. Kotori: I'm going to end all of it right now. Kotori: That's why, Aria, I wanted to say...
-->
Kotori: I'm sorry. |

-- DISCORD -- MSPFA -- REDDIT -- TUMBLR ----> Kotori: You probably won't forgive me for this, ever.
Kotori: I know I won't forgive myself either.
Kotori: But things have to change eventually.
Kotori: I can't look back anymore.
Kotori: These days won't keep repeating like a reborn flower.
Kotori: So I've accepted the fact that it has to end, and it will end today.
Kotori: You too have to accept that. What are the townspeople's reactions?
 Kotori: It's over, Aria.
Kotori: You're coming with me to the execution cenote. Welp. Cover blown, for Aria and Nino-OH SHIT NINO! >Camera: Cut to Nino, double quick!  What? What's so important about this guy? Look at this piece of shit. All he's doing is uselessly fiddling with a flower, while important people are POSSIBLY BEING MURDERED AS WE SPEAK. What a bag of douche. Let's be this guy. You are now Nino. You're trying to experiment with your ability, like Aria suggested before. It seems like you can't heal any of these tulips. Is it because they're already wilted? You have no idea. Oh well, you guess you're not gonna come back with any decent flowers for Aria.
>Nino: Notice some BIG SOUNDS. What sounds? You hear nothing, save for the windiness of the forest. ... And, uh... Ludwig? Your dog pal brorks to draw your attention to something important. >Five: stop Kotori.
 Five: No!! >Five: protect.
  Five: Don't hurt... Aria!!
Five: Leave Aria alone!!!
Kotori: ...
Kotori: Move out of my way.
Five: N-No!
Five: Five... Five won't move!!
Kotori: Don't test my patience.
Five: Five.. Five will... protect Aria!
Five: S-So, go away! -->
 Kotori: ...
Kotori: This is your last chance.
Kotori: I won't hesitate to do whatever I must to finish what I started. |
