"Good morning, Mr. Squidson."
"Y-you! I don't have any time to talk with you!"
"… something wrong? You look awfully pale today…"
"Please, leave this house now!"
"My… this is new. Is this another tactic of yours…?"
"Could you please talk about our debt, some other time?!"
"… and why I should let you get away, this time…? Is going to be another promise…?"
"I-I can't think about it, for a second! My son… my poor son!"
"Oh… what about him?"
"The family doctor… d-did the worst discovery imaginable! He found out something wrong a-and Hun… was sent immediately to the technological hospital!"
"And you let him use technology on your son? After all the things you"
"He didn't have any choice! Th-there was something very wrong with him… he said that a special examination was required!"
"Then, you should not worry in the least. You can trust technology. It'll take care of him…"
"… no… it'll not…"
"Why?"
"… the doctor got back with the results… my son… h-has a rare disease…"
"… oh…"
"He said… that there's still time to save him. He has one month and some days to live… and then… he…"
"Excuse me, but isn't it a bit odd? A disease powerful enough to end an Inkling…?"
"He explained… that his body is like a bomb. Once the time is up… he explodes and… a-and…"
"Oooh, let me help you out. Here, take this handkerchief…"
"S-sniff… p-poor Hun…"
"Mr. Squidson, didn't you thought about how he'd become a little squid ready to regenerate…?"
"… that's the problem… he said… that he'll not become one… n-nothing b-but a pile of"
"Now now… let's get to the good news already. I mean, you mentioned how there's a way to save him… right?"
"Yes… b-but… a-another problem rises…"
"Which is?"
"The medical operation… it's very expensive… too expensive to cover with our money."
"Oh… that seems a very tricky problem, indeed…"
"Not only that… but also that debt you keep asking to me."
"Yes, I believe you can't delay the payments anymore. The total is too high and my company needs some money now…"
"… you selfish man! HOW CAN YOU THINK ABOUT YOURSELF IN A TIME LIKE THIS?!"
"My my… where's exactly the evidence stating such accuse?"
"Huh? Y-you don't mean…"
"But of course, I'll help you! My bad for making it seem… foolish."
"This means… you're going to pay for Hun's operation?!"
"Not exactly… I was thinking about a little deal."
"D-deal? B-but I"
"Tsk tsk, please Mr. Squidson. Hear me out… is your child fine now?"
"Yes… they say the effects will start showing at the last days…"
"Then, I guess we can do a fair and square business together."
"… better be it…"
"Ha ha, why doubt it? Did I ever said a lie before?"
"You tried… once."
"Hmpf. The past… what's the point to remember it again? Shall we discuss much more important things, now?"
"… alright, tell me."
"Oh… maybe after we sit on those comfortable chairs. I need to rest my legs now…"
"There, now can we talk about this deal?"
"Very well… here's my offer… you'll sell me your propriety."
"Wh-what?! No! That would"
"Hmpf, Mr. Squidson… don't forget about your poor son…"
"G-grrrr… y-you…"
"… hmm? what's this paper? Oh… interesting…"
"That's the contract showing the procedures of the operation… as well as its cost."
"My… those robbers…! Such vital operation is this pricy…?"
"WHY WOULD THAT SURPRISE YOU?! YOU ALL TECHNIES ARE ALL THE SAME!"
"You sure about that? I'd never charge this much, for a young kid…"
"… p-please, Mr. Tarfo… be reasonable! I-I can't give you my farm and all its assets… w-we are going to hit the road!"
"Hmmm… I'm sorry… but I can't go lower than this… unless…"
"Unless what?! Please, do tell!"
"… your son… is going to work for me."
"A-AGAIN?! I already said no!"
"… hmpf. According to this piece of paper, the operation can be done in Inkopolis only… can't you see where I'm going with this?"
"… oh no… NO!"
"He he he he… working for me, will guarantee that your son will get to the hospital in record time… you know, in case he'd get some complications…"
"W-why you…!"
"I guess this time, you're not going to stop me… right?"
"B-but the job for Hun… is as much dangerous as his disease!"
"… I guess you're willing to give me your farm, then."
"NO!"
"Then… I hope you'll enjoy those days with your son… may always be in your me"
"C-can I say something about that last deal…?"
"Hmm? What's it…?"
"… I'll leave my child to you… but please! Let him have a normal life. I mean, give him education, friends, food, letting us"
"Not the last part… you all are needed here, since there's work to do."
"WWHHAAAATTT?!"
"Consider this better, because this's my last offer."
"… n-no… h-how we c-could know a-about him?"
"Trust me… I'll make sure to report his status every week to your family…"
"Trust you? OF ALL PEOPLE?!"
"… Mr. Squidson… maybe you're not realizing this, but… you have a crucial moment, in your life."
"Crucial…?"
"You can't always play safe in this world… sometime, you have to go out there and take risks. This is the only way to win the biggest prizes…"
"Y-you…!"
"So? We have a deal now? I really need to get back to work… and I believe you too."
"… Hun… f-forgive me… I-I couldn't protect you this time…"
"Eh eh eh! I got ya this time, big bro!"
"H-how?! I thought to be fast as a Squid!"
"But I got fast too! Didn't you see how speedy I was?"
"Yeah! Gee… my little sis is really getting good, huh…"
"Yep! Can't wait to REALLY help 'round, ya know!"
"Uh… helping around?"
"Com' on, Hun! Ya can't tell me, I'm going allers be… ya know… sweet, as you usually say…"
"Oh… y-yeah, I think that's correct…"
"Somethin' wrong, big bro?"
"Huh?! N-nothing!"
"Did ya forget to give the seahay to Lassie again?"
"Yikes! D-did I really forget that?!"
"… nope, ya didn't forget."
"Phew! That fish really doesn't deserve that…"
"She's so happy to see ya! Especially when you pet her!"
"Well… the same is for you. She likes us… yes… sigh…"
"… com' on, big bro! What's it, now?"
"… well… how to put this…? I… ehm…"
"Ya want to play Seahorse, right?! I need to practice my racin' skills!"
"… no… unfortunately."
"Huh… that's tricky, big bro! Any hints?"
"I'm going to leave soon, Fara…"
"… YA WHAT?!"
"Don't worry... a couple of weeks and I'm back here to play with you!"
"Weeks?! Aren't you confusin' that for days again, don't ya?!"
"Ha ha ha ha… … I wish it would be it…"
"B-but where you'll gitty-up?!"
"… uhm… I think it's a city or something…"
"A big ol' forest? Why?"
"… well…"
"Hmm?!"
"… let's say that… I need to change…"
"Change…? … wait, WHAT?!"
"Sorry, Fara… it's a bit of a long story… a very… long one…"
"Tell me! I love your stories, bud!"
"… I can't… it's also hard to comprehend…"
"Yeah, sure… like ya got all the sudden, super brains or something!"
"No, I-I'm serious about this… however, maybe… maybe I could tell you all of it, once I changed."
"And why ya need to change in the first place?! You're so awesome already!"
"That's not true… I need this change… to become better for this next experience…"
"H-Hun, why are ya crying now…?"
"N-nothing. I-I guess that… s-sniff, I-I'll miss everyone for a while…"
"Well… but then ya'll return, right?! Doesn't this matter at the end?"
"Y-yes, that's true…"
"Big bro… c-could you please stop crying? Y-ya'll m-make me cry too, ya know!"
"N-no, please! Don't cry… i-it's alright! Everything will be alright…!"
"… I-I'm going to miss ya so much, Hun. Hope those weeks will fly like the wind!"
"… s-sniff… s-sob…"
"Oh, ehm… b-by the by, when you'll go to the forest again?"
"Tomorrow… early in the morning…"
"Aw… too directly! But hey, this means somethin' great too!"
"What something great? I don't see it…"
"We can still play Seahorse, before you go! Aren't ya happy?!"
"… h-hey, you're right!"
"Com' on, then! Let's play it already!"
"Yeah! For the last time…"
"HUH?!"
"Uuuuh, I-I mean… for a while! Yes, for a while we'll not get the chance to play our favourite game…!"
"… ya got me there! Ya really need to get some word skills, you know…"
"Yes! I'll train them, starting from tomorrow! Now… shall we play?"
"Got ya!"
"Ow! W-whoa, I-I didn't expect that jump…!"
"Ya can't get away from this Squidgirl, bud! She's always there, no matter which thingamajig is in the front!"
"… … I love you, sis… p-please, always remember that…"
"… and ya remember that I love you too, big bro! You'll allers be my favourite brother! Allers!"
