I'm happy to have you as a roommate, too. It's gotten a little lonely-
Oh.
[The mirror's smile falters as he looks past Pyra to the real Connor, awake now and walking over to join the group.]
Whatever he's telling you, it's only some kind of trick.
[The mirror image rolls its eyes.] Denial.
[Connor reaches out and flips the mirror face down, his brow creased, before looking back up at Pyra and slipping into a more neutral expression.]
