Really? [Monika sounded surprised. That was like, one of the first things she'd done.] You really should, you know? Even if you're not into magic, it may come in handy when situations like those arise.

[ Though, maybe she had her reasons to not explore her magic... Everyone carried a trauma, heh? She'd already pretty much ascertained that in spite of the smile, she was like Sayori. Hiding dark thoughts behind a smile. So it wouldn't be too surprising.

Mhm! Though, he painted it like, late in his life. He did many paintings like this one. Funnily enough, each of those were painted directly upon the walls of his house. The wallpaper upon which they were painted was said to be really pretty and colorful... Then the wallpaper was removed and put on canvases. [She paused.] Collectively, they're known as the "Black Paintings."

[ And there was like... The echoing sound of someone chewing suddenly coming from the painting. It was gross, truth to be told. And it didn't really sound like someone eating, more like someone devouring with wild abandon.

Monika didn't seem to hear anything though. ]

Um... Maybe he is? You know, in spite of its name, nobody knows if it's really Saturn and his son. It's just a theory. [She raised a finger.] Anyway, we should keep going.
