"So, we need a jock, a nerd, a ..." Lisa remembered Sana's presence before choosing her next word "... bimbo, an oddball, and an innocent."
Skuld nodded. "The 'nerd' and 'jock,' as you put it, are supposed to be men, but we don't have that option."
"At least there are five of us. Who gets which role?"

"I won't dispute your acting ability, Sana, but you're too young for them to believe you're anything other than the innocent one."
Sana frowned at Peggy's comment. "You only had classmates from happy homes, didn't you? I'm not too young to know about bad things, even if I never lived through them myself. The only role I see that's definite is Skuld plays the nerd."
"Fine, as long as it lets us get close enough to this nest of so-called 'gods' that I can find out who to call Judgment upon."
Dee nodded. "And in the meantime, we get to relax for a few hours in a secluded cabin."
"A secluded cabin that's wired for video," Skuld added with a scowl on her face.
