Subaru:  “Either way, you’re not gonna hand out cheat sheets on the contents of the trials or how to answer, are you?”

Subaru:  “Don’t talk about this like some geezer’s fun, sheesh…” Wincing from the witchy reply, Subaru slowly rose from his seat. There was no longer anything he wished to speak to Echidna about.
