[Oh hello, how did his back hit the door? What? Rose? No, there was none in his hand, so he can't be back inside a painting again. The only explanation is that Mary came out, but why? And she made it sound like he was the stranger here. How rude!]
I've been back for a while now, thank you very much! I'll have you know that if you think of harming one hair on Ib, or anyone here, I'll have to stop you... ah, somehow! What are you planning in this world?

[She grips one of the pencils she'd been using to doodle with, and it snaps right in her hand. He'll tell. He'll tell. What can she do?]

[There's no way Ib found a way to switch them after, right? She saw Ib get out, but not into this place...]

[And then she perks up, taking a few steps closer.]
You said Ib is here...?
