Tachyon
The spirits here are quite active tonight... perfect for my research.
Still In Love
(Why did I agree to this? The air itself feels wrong here...)
Suzuka
The board's responding... it's spelling something out.
Scarlet
(That's not one of us in the reflection...)
Tachyon
The veil is thinning... I can feel it!
Still In Love
(The necklace... it's not protecting me anymore...)
Suzuka
That's not my reflection... it's smiling back at me.
Tachyon
(The ritual worked better than expected... but whose body will they choose?)
Suzuka
How fascinating... this body feels so much more capable than my old one.
Still In Love
(That's not Suzuka... the way she's moving, the way she's looking at us...)
Suzuka
Seventy-three years trapped in that mirror... and now I'm finally free.
Tachyon
This wasn't supposed to happen... I only wanted to study the spirits, not release them!
Scarlet
(Keep recording... whatever this thing is, we need proof of what happened to Suzuka.)
Suzuka
Your little friend isn't coming back. This body is mine now... and it's perfect for what I have planned.
Suzuka
(No... I won't let you hurt them... my friends...)
Suzuka
The mirror... I can still see her... she's pulling me back in!
Suzuka
(Take my hand... before she gets stronger...)
Suzuka
(The mirror... it let me go... but something followed me out...)
Tachyon
Suzuka! Thank goodness you're back—I thought we lost you to that thing!
Suzuka
(Foolish girl... did you really think I'd give up such a perfect vessel?)
Still In Love
S-Suzuka? Your eyes... they're still glowing...
Tachyon
(Cold... these aren't Suzuka's arms around my waist... they're translucent...)
Suzuka
The horse girl's body was just bait. I needed someone who understood the occult... someone who could complete my ritual.
Scarlet
Agnes! The spirit—it's not after Suzuka anymore! It's after your knowledge!
Tachyon
(The book... it's opening on its own... the final incantation...)
Suzuka
With your knowledge and my power... we'll open the gate together. Forever.
Tachyon
(I can't move... these hands aren't touching my skin, they're sinking through me...)
Suzuka
Your knowledge of the occult... it calls to me. Let me taste your memories.
Still In Love
Suzuka's body... it's moving without her. The ghost is using her like a puppet!
Tachyon
(The book's opening to the binding ritual... but I need my hands free to cast it!)
Suzuka
Such delicious knowledge... I can see your research... your experiments... your guilt...
Scarlet
The mirror! Agnes, use the broken mirror shards—they're pure silver, they can bind spirits!
Tachyon
(My blood... consecrated from years of research... the ghost can't resist possessed flesh!)
Suzuka
A-Agnes... the mirror... it's burning... I'm still here... help me...
Tachyon
By silver's truth and blood's sacrifice—RETURN TO YOUR PRISON!
Suzuka
(Which one of us... will be trapped... in the mirror... this time...)
