[The room, once you've entered it, has a number of ear buds laid out on a table.]

Now, pop those ear buds in and we'll begin the test! Failure to comply will result in desyncing and forcing your team to pay for a replacement body.

Takuto Tsunashi... 16 years old! I'm a high school student from Southern Cross Island in Japan. I'm also surprisingly popular? Does that count for anything? I sound pretty boring compared to a lot of people here.

[threateningflour]

It's a good thing. If anyone has yours, it should be easy to guess.

[universalboy]

Glad that I'm helping.

... but is it really okay for you to be talking about what you do? I mean, I guess the head robot might already know, but...

[threateningflour]

To be fair, what I just said wasn't revealing. I have too many secrets to list.

[universalboy]

I bet you do.

[threateningflour]

Do you know anyone from home here?

[universalboy]

Yep!

[ points at Wako ]

Wako is someone I know from home! So is Sugata, another member of Gamma, but he's not playing this game.

[threateningflour]

[nods] How long have all of you been friends?

[universalboy]

[ thinking... ]

Over six months. I swam to the island our high school was on, because I missed the last ferry... and I almost died, but Wako saved me. And that's when I first met both of them.

[threateningflour]

... That's some dedication.

[universalboy]

It was worth it. I'm sure you've done some really stupid things before, right? I mean, ones that you didn't regret.

[threateningflour]

I have.

[universalboy]

Uhm... do you do any super serious government missions that might involve you not having much food? Or is that something you'd send soldiers and grunts to do?

[threateningflour]

We tend to bring our own supplies. There are times when we run out of food.

[universalboy]

Oh man... those must be intense missions. Do you guys have any backup supplies for those situations?

[threateningflour]

It depends. Sometimes we can restock. Other times, we have to scavenge and work with what we got.

[universalboy]

Being a special agent is a whole other world. Keep working hard!

[threateningflour]

Thanks.

Have you ever had to lie to a close friend?

[universalboy]

Nope! Fortunately, I'm close friends with people I can really trust.

[threateningflour]

That is very fortunate.

[universalboy]

Uhm, one last thing! I mean, I wouldn't think being a secret agent and having to go out on missions would really allow for it, but... do you have an animals you keep?

[threateningflour]

No, I don't have time for pets.

[universalboy]

Thought so. Work is a cruel master!

[threateningflour]

That it is.
