 [02:32] TT: "O-Oh! Thank you!" She captchalouges the headband, reverting back to a troll. "I'm extremely thankful for it, way more than I could ever express, but I still turn back when I take it off, so I don't want to become dependent on it, y'know?"

 [02:36] AA: Kolena sighs. "♪♪♪ However, I Do Not Feel Particularly Pretty On The Inside Right Now. ♪ I Used That Man's Interest In Me To Arrange His Murder. ♪ I Am As Bad As The Musclebeat's Nook Who Broke My Pump Biscuit. ♪♪♪"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:01] TT: "Well, a common tactic people liked to use on me was harping on any mistake I made.
