[ Considering Seimei seems content to keep playing along in this hypothetical situation they’ve drawn up between them, Sylvain is more than happy to keep playing along as well.
Even if he casts the mirror a skeptical look. ]
That’s assuming they want to be outside the mirrors. Or they weren’t put there with good reason?
[ Not that he can really think of a good reason for that. Beyond that whole ‘wanting to eat him’ thing. ]
[ Seimei taps on the glass, almost like he expects to be able to taunt the potential hallucinations into revealing themselves again. It doesn't work, but he still looks satisfied with himself after testing the mirror. ]
Oh, we can't know unless we try, right? Even if they were put in there, how would we know it was for a good reason if we don't test it? Maybe they want out and can't tell us. That's why we have to be the ones to look first.
[ It could also just be an illusion made up to trick them, with no actual entities involved at all. There's always that chance, but Seimei will still happily try to bait the spellcaster behind it just to lure them out. He's never been bothered by using himself as a trap. ]
Did you see anything else strange so far? Maybe it's a clue.
[ Sylvain just casts the other man a bemused look as he leans against the wall of the dressing room, crossing his arms over his chest. ]
Do you have something to start taking notes, then? Because pretty much everything I’ve seen today, since the moment I opened my eyes, could be considered ‘strange’.
[ He waves a hand to encompass their surroundings, and everything that comes with that. ] I’m not sure anyone would call any of this ‘normal’. Except maybe the people who have been here far longer than we have. And I’m not sure they’re reliable.

Everything you've seen?
[ He is most definitely giving Sylvain a hard time. ]
But if everything is strange, wouldn't that just make "strange" normal? And then the only way we can be normal is to be a little strange ourselves.
[ Seimei is not having any difficulty mastering that part. ]
Well, we'll only learn more by trying things out, right? We should at least test the theory.
