[ there's middle management out there in this hellscape? somehow, he'd believe it. ]
There might be a hierarchy. Ruby said she'd check if it really affects us. ...Even if it doesn't, that doesn't feel better. [ it just means another game down the line will be affected instead. ]
Well, she might might be wrong. I said she was nice, not that she knows everything. But she doesn't even know the wolf, even though he's actually the one in charge of death.
You're right! They keep mentioning a last game...but Aika didn't know why they were trying to do the same sort of game. It's not for entertainment, or anything.
Ruby wouldn't tell me who else we could turn to. But there must be someone. [ whether it's the reapers themselves, or another entity out there. or??? whoever else. ] And the last game... maybe if we learn more about it, we can end this one. Or at least learn what they're trying to do.

But I do think the bad ones aren't here, they're the ones in charge.

[so she wasn't sure what to make of that.]
But maybe there's a higher boss?

It still means they're horrible. But Ruby isn't horrible.

...She's fine.
[ she's OKAY he GUESSES ]
But she did think there was nothing we could do about it. Not alone.

She might know more than us, but not everything.
But she said we couldn't do it by ourselves. That means there's people who must be able to help us.

Yeah! We could make some allies and take down the system.
