In any other circumstance, that may be true; however, the subject of mischief is relevant to the entities that now roam the school grounds. In order to better protect the student body, I must first understand the opposition.

Use your time worrying about the more dangerous ghosts, in that case. Some of them can burn you with a mere touch — that's far worse than some tied shoelaces.

[isdf]

They can burn you with a touch and adjust their corporeality at will, but they seem to ignore anyone who does the same to them. As of now, aggression toward such entities is inadvisable.

On the other hand, we know even less about the wooden dolls or what the appropriate response to them is. That is what I would like to solve.

Whatever will help you sleep at night, my friend.

[isdf]

[He sleeps just fine at ni . . . Ah.]

. . . You have quite the roundabout nature.

[gamboler]

And yet, it must not be too roundabout, since you've already caught on.

[isdf]

Are you teasing me?

[gamboler]

Perhaps.

[isdf]

[He frowns.]

If there is an issue with what I've said, please let me know and I will correct it.

[gamboler]

Teasing isn't really meant to be taken as constructive criticism, you know.

[isdf]

Then what should it be taken as?

[gamboler]

Teasing.

[isdf]

[He stares at him.

This is a trap waiting to be sprung. If he speaks, he'll be made fun of again.]

[gamboler]

[ ...He stares back. Blinks...

And after a few moments of this, straightens up. ]

Well, this has been an...enlightening meeting. I should see if those dolls have moved on, though.

[isdf]

. . . Very well. Please proceed with caution.

[The dormitories should be safe, but there's no telling what might happen at any moment.]
