[He glances at him sidelong, expression not exactly softer since it was already not that hard to begin with anyway.]
I know. I am too. I thought ours was the last. A little disappointed to learn there has been so many other ones. But that's why I want to put an end to this. Not just this game, but... the Nightman, or whatever the hell is happening here.
...Yes. Anything that is bound by things like contracts and rules cannot be impossible to outmatch. I believe we stand a chance of defeating this... Nightman, and the hotel.
[ still, it'd have been nice if it didn't happen at all. after a few seconds he relaxes again, mostly looking exhausted. ]
If my soul finds its way to the other side, I will do as you ask. I am sure you can leave your messages for the dead in your letters, but if there is anything besides that, I will carry it on to them.
[ he's not as tense and stiff-shouldered as usual. jason's efforts are appreciated, even if they all go through this same, helpless situation every week. it still means something to reach out.
after a moment, he pulls out the key to his room. ]
Here. Would you take a few things for me? There is a video tape that Sylvain had found, shortly... [ he pauses as his stomach does a funny little flip ] ...just before he died. I'm sure there are other copies, but just in case, I would ask you to take it.
There are also a number of papers in my desk drawers that I have been penned over the weeks. Should you meet my father and I do not return, I would ask you to deliver them to him, and explain the situation as much as you are able. They are my notes from the library, as well as proposals of governance and instructions on where I have hidden my few personal affects from my uncle.
[ hmm. ]
And of course, look after everyone else, and make sure no one befouls Claude's grave. I believe that will be the lot of it.

[He puts a hand on Dimitri’s shoulder and squeezes reassuringly. It’s a pathetic reassurance but whatever.]
Is there anything you need me to do? For you or anyone else?
