[WP] You received a letter from your mentor today, asking how your training is going, and that they plan to visit. You don't know how to explain that you misunderstood their request to 'train in the badlands', and have instead created a safe, lucrative railway network through the savage territory.

[WP] "You can't just keep using the *I don't like talking* excuse, hero. I know I told you I enjoy a good monologue every now and then, but... You aren't actually mute, right? Because... I mean, if you are, I can learn sign language to make this work..."

[WP] "You're fidgeting again. Try to relax." The voice startles you. You thought you were alone. "Hey, calm down. It's just me." Your heart pumps swiftly. Where is the voice coming from?! "...What? Don't you recognize me?... Oh. No, no, that's okay. Really. We can do introductions again."

[WP] Your SO is coming home later every night; When you confront them about it, they say they've gotten into trouble with the mafia and need to take extra shifts to pay some debt; Which is very interesting, considering they SHOULD be completely off-limits to the criminal underworld.

[WP] "...So, uh, are you just gonna sit there, staring at the wall the WHOLE time? I know you're the prisoner and all, but... That's kinda... Look, I, uh, brought some cards. Don't tell the boss. Just...I dunno. Shuffle them around. Play a game. Do SOMETHING. You're kinda freaking me out here."
