>Dani: Sing Disney tune to distract her.

You sigh in disbelief that you're gonna have to resort to...singing. Which is gonna be especially hard in a bucket. "Look, um...~I can show you the woorld--~"

Val cringes a bit. "Gosh. Denny, your voice is, like, reminding me of a dying rat."

You mimick her attentuation mockinly. "Gosh. Val, your criticism is, like, totally uncalled for," you say with your tongue stuck out.

She scoffs. "You're, like, a newbie, even in singing. Let ME show you how, like, the PROfeshunals handle it."

You cross your arms awaiting an inevitable dumpster fire to pollute your ears. However, your arms slowly drop as the voice of this siren lulls you into a trance. Also the vivid image of the Beast's mansion.

You're brought back with a literal snap to reality.

Val stands in front of you with her fingers post-snap and in your bucketface. "Uh, hello? Earth to newbie?" She giggles. "Speechless much? That's the result of, like, four years in highschool choir y'know." She then puts her arms on her hips, exerting her tall stature over you. "Like, what did YOU even do in highschool?"

You cross your arms again. "Should you not be piloting the ship? What is your problem?! I do not remember any acts of trangression that I have committed against you--"

She makes a hand-puppet mocking you. "Blah blah blah, you sure like to use big words." She takes a step forward, further invading your personal bubble. "There's just something about you that makes it so easy to mess with you." Another step, forcing you to back off a bit. "It reminds me SO much of highschool." Yet another step. "Seriously, what DID you do in highschool?"

You panic. "I graduated it."

You then unleash a gust of wind to push her back. "...and I hope you did too. Seriously, what is wrong with you?!"

She barely loses balance even after being pushed back. "Okay, no really, have we met before? Your voice is like, SO familiar!"

The sound of her weapon pixelizing then rings out. "...and like, not in a good way."

Before you could react, the deafening cacophony of a blade scraping against your bucket grates your ears, causing you to fall to your knees and scream.

In the next moment, however, the accursed bucket splits apart, falling to your sides. You're filled with awe and relief as your vision returns to you.

[ Cursed Bucket unequipped. ]

Val's eyes widen as she takes a good look at your face. "Oh my god. I thought you like, sounded familiar."

You squint your eyes which are still adjusting to your returned vision. As the blurriness fades away, you finally get a good look at Val's face. "Oh. Fuck."

Her brow furrows and she firmly holds her sword with both of her hands. "Satela. You fucking bitch. Like, what are the odds I'd see your bitch-face in this game?"

You get up and materialize your wand. "Likewise, Valentine. I thought I'd never have to see you again after my family took care of you."

She slams the sword against the hardwood floor. "TOOK CARE?! Bitch. Your family literally squeezed all of our money out in that fucking lawsuit!"

You further ground your stance. "Maybe you should not have constantly tortured me in high school."

She mirrors by lowering her stance as well. "My family lost their jobs! We had to sell our fucking house, Satela! Like, I wouldn't be in this fucking game if it wasn't for you!"

Hm. Hearing it like that really does make you sound like the bad guy here. But then again it's still kind of her fault. You two are just about ready to fight. But maybe you don't have to?
How do you proceed?
