[It's difficult to see much of anything, because Laharl is posting this from the usually cozy interior of his coffin. The only light is coming from the SFC itself. His red eyes seem to drink it in like cats' eyes, but the rest of his face is indistinct.]

Is this w-what it feels like to be s-sick?

[Someone may have panicked a little and not checked any other posts.]

W-why would I tell you if I was?

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

Because it's what other people to do help each other out! If you help me, I'll help you. That's how it goes.

[She doesn't like thinking it like that but...]

[Voice]

[makainoou]

You r-really think I'd have any intention of helping you?

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

[It was worth a shot!]

A little bit, yes. That's what we are all here for since we are trapped in an environment where we don't have a means of escape.

[Voice]

[makainoou]

What we're here for is to be lab rats for a b-bunch of upstart scientists. That d-doesn't involve intentionally helping anyone.

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

But if we c-could, we can figure out how to overthrow the...the.....s-scientists....

[Voice]

[makainoou]

I don't see how helping you n-now has anything to do with that.

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

[To convince you to help other people too]

Y-You're right, it doesn't...but it d-doesn't hurt to try r-right?

[Now her speeches were getting a bit slurred]

[Voice]

[makainoou]

It'd w-waste my time.

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

So there's nothing I can do to h-help?

[mumble]

Not even from this cold?

[Voice]

[makainoou]

I d-doubt it.

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

I see th-

[Another sneeze!]

We'll just have to figure this curse on our own then?

[Voice]

[makainoou]

You have a hard time understanding t-that concept, d-don't you?

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

And what if I do?

I just w-want to help!

[Voice]

[makainoou]

Help someone else!

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

But I'm not going to let you freeze to death!

[They are getting along so well]

[Voice]

[makainoou]

I'm not g-going to freeze to death!

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

And how do you know about that?

[And she’s still being stubborn]

[Voice]

[makainoou]

Because it's just a d-dumb curse m-making me feel cold!

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

So we need to get you warm and the closest thing would probably be drinking some soup or tea!

[Voice]

[makainoou]

W-what, now you think I can't f-feed myself?

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

[agphapghag]

No, that's n-not what I meant! I meant that drinking something warm w-would be better!

[Voice]

[makainoou]

So you just think I'm s-stupid.

[Voice]

[shirleyhopeful]

[What has she gotten herself into?]

No, I'm saying that it would make you feel warmer!

[Voice]

[makainoou]

[What she has gotten herself into is a conversation with a demon who prides himself on his stubbornness.]

Any more b-brilliant ideas?
