Hell yeah, we love the pursuit of knowledge! What do you already know about reading?

I...I know m-my name. And...w-words like...t-the..and...a-as and......y-you.......and....n-no and yes...

Niko asked me to teach her to read.. I'm really happy she asked me of all people! `A laugh.` I mean.. I guess I'm just really flattered. She's such a quick learner, it's really amazing! And she was so excited about it! She's a good kid.

Nothing on the train, hm? If you ever feel so inclined, i could let you in on a few secrets i found in the new areas back at the... town~

Oh? I do love some secrets! When we get off the Nightmare Express I'd be down for that.

It isn't like they're difficult to find, but.. If i am not.. alive, in a few days, it might be better to discuss it now...Not like i'd ever let that happen~

I know...but I'm gonna make sure it doesn't happen. No one dies, you included.

-yet this town's mysteries have enthralled me to no end. I want to investigate it further, once i find a way out - though i'm doubtful anyone besides me will want to come back here, even in pursuit of knowledge~

You underestimate my curiosity. I mean, obviously I'll be investigating while we're still here but once this whole death dome thing is over, I'll be back! Maybe we could solve the mystery together?

Call it a deal.

A deal then!
