[Ripley spends the morning searching for Bennings in the resort. Eventually, she tracks him down in the restaurant. She approaches him, a sense of urgency in her step. She speaks in a hushed voice--]
Ripley takes a moment to listen at the door for anybody walking down the hallway. Seemingly satisfied, she turns to speak to Bennings in a hushed voice.]
I'm only telling you this because the Staff messed up and said you were a villager.
[She takes a deep breath.]
I'm the Knight, which means it's my job to protect the people here. I think it would be beneficial if we were to help each other out.
It wouldn't, necessarily. [Ripley crosses her arms, leaning against the wall.]
I just feel it would be better if we were able to reach out to other people we know we're able to trust. That way, we can work on eliminating who the mafia are.
[A pause.]
Besides, in a game like this, it's important to have allies.

I need to speak to you. Preferably in private.
OwO whats this?
He looks up at her, taking the very last sip of his coffee.]
Right now? Is something wrong?
no subject
[Well, that's not cryptic at all!]
no subject
But no, Bennings understands.]
I'm free right now. [He puts the empty coffee cup on the table and stands up, pushing in his chair.]
Your room, my room, or somewhere else?
no subject
[Ripley barely waits for Bennings to stand up before she starts walking away. Better keep up!]
no subject
[Bennings speedwalks after her to catch up. Lesbians are so fast????
Anyway, let's say that they're at the room! Bennings unlocks the door and opens it up, closing it again once they're both inside.]
So, what did you want to talk about?

He sits down on the bed and repeats what she just said to himself a few times, trying to process it.]
I'm not saying I won't help you out, but how would working with a "Peasant" like me be beneficial to you?
It feels more one-sided, if you ask me.
