[He holds a hand up to his own chest, and for a moment, Ruler's view of Watanuki will shift. And he will be able to see several glowing souls sitting in Watanuki's chest.]
Before I became the Witch of Dimensions, I had powers of my own. One of those powers is the power of a 'dreemseer'. Not only do I see the future in my dreams, but I can also use my dreams as a physical location for traveling and having meetings with other dreemseers. It wasn't too hard to drag their souls in there for a 'meeting', once I knew how my connection to everyone worked.
The real 'them' are aware, deep inside my dreams, where Nirrti can't reach them. Their 'bodies' out here, however, are not. And I would like to keep it that way.
That's also why I disappear so often: I have to be asleep to communicate with them, so I find places in this mansion to tuck myself away and nap for a couple hours at a time.

[Honestly he would drink any tea made for him. usually he has to make his own.]
I meant to talk to you earlier in the week, before all of...this.
[The trial, he means.]
But it occurred to me: while I have been polite to you, I haven't exactly been a good friend to you.
no subject
[Blunt, but he can be]
But I am glad that we are going to clear the air at least.
no subject
And I haven't done anything besides talk game strategy and give instructions either. Definitely not friendly behavior.
[Look, he knows he's a mess. That's why he wants to clear the air and try again.]

So, I want to make amends, if you're alright with that? Maybe we can start over on the 'friends' part.
no subject
I think I would like that, actually.
no subject
I already know I can trust you not to speak to anyone about it, so I suppose the best place to start is with the truth about those removed from play.
no subject
[He stated neutrally, but left it there, allowing for Watanuki to confirm, deny, or elaborate at his own leisure]

They're in 'here'.
no subject
So they're in you, to keep them from getting lost... are they aware?

So the pillars are basically riding the bodies, while their souls are within a dream.
[Better than the alternative of being trapped in someone's body and not being able to do anything]

...speaking of which, I'm sorry for some of the dreams you had to see.
[Not all of them have been terrible, but he has certainly dreamed about a certain idiot archer more than a few times.]
no subject
[He gives an impish, teasing grin between a very dignified sip of tea]
no subject
It wasn't just a crush! But I get your point.
[He's also glad that Ruler hasn't seen anything involving the Jorogumo yet. That sure was awkward.]
no subject
I will warn you that I can be a difficult friend, though I suppose I don't have much room to talk.
no subject
[But he's not rude, so he won't call Sherlock out too much.]
It would be better if I could just choose the dreams to show you, when we end up sharing. I'm a dream seer, I should be able to do that.
no subject
If that is possible, that would be less awkward all around.

And you probably don't want the sordid details of an old man.
[Especially given he is a lot older in those memories than what he appears as now]
no subject
[He's joking here. He doesn't want help.]
no subject
By God, I'd be the worst person to ask for such advice.
[Especially with how flustered he got when talking to Erhard earlier]
no subject
[He absolutely knows about Erhard. But he's going to make Ruler say it.]
