Tartarus - Emergency Stairs

|
Riddle! For the umpteenth time, would you PLEASE stop running ahead? |

|
Why? I'm the leader of our team. It makes sense that I should march at the fore. |

|
I'm not talking about who's in front. We need to exercise a little more caution. There's only one path in Tartarus. And it's possible some Phantoms have already thawed and are lurking about, waiting to ambush us. |

|
Do you think I'd be thrown by such petty attacks? |

|
Your confidence is admirable, but we haven't been trained to fight Phantoms. We should be careful when dealing with unknown enemies. |

|
What you say is perfectly sensible, but we've already gone down the proverbial rabbit hole. There's no turning back. Hence, it makes no difference if we tiptoe or march boldly forth. |

|
Even so, there's a fine line between bravery and recklessness, Riddle. |

|
There's also a fine line between caution and cowardice, Azul. And there's no rule in our manual that says we must fear enemies in an emergency. I follow the manual, plain and simple. |

|
So you'd do anything so long as it was written in a manual? What if it said to let an enemy hit you so you could gauge its strength? |

|
I'd do so if it were a rule. |

|
I've heard of going by the book, but this is ridiculous. He's not just inflexible. His head must be made of literal rock. *huff* If I'd known he'd be like this, I would've gone with Leona and just called my sanded contracts water under the bridge... |

|
Azul! We've got company, dead ahead! |

|
I'll dispose of it. You stay back! |

|
Excuse me? Are you implying... Tch. We'll talk after this. |
