"Upuhehehe... Yes, that's right! At least one of you is on the ball! Don't tell me you looked it up on GameFAQs!"
"The dead people sitting here," Bayonetta asked the Bucket Knight, "how did they get here? Did they all die here?"
((In all seriousness, I made a random guess and even tried to google it to confirm it; results were fruitless anyways :P))
"I'm afraid I simply do not see who you are talking about," Bucket Knight explains. "I do not 'see' in the traditional sense, I believe. I'm very sorry. All I can say is that no one has been here for a very long time.""The dead people sitting here," Bayonetta asked the Bucket Knight, "how did they get here? Did they all die here?"
She started the process of looking at the bodies and the tables in Jill's Sandwiches, and everywhere else in search of any clue or useful items.
She looked at the others. "If we don't find anything, we should move on to help reunite Cosmo with Arya" she suggested.

Monokuma wags his finger at Ruby. "No psychically speaking with others! They aren't here to participate!" He then stops to take a big bite of his pancakes. "Now eat your prize and ask for another! I ain't giving out riddles for no reason, you know!"
"Well," Bayonetta said to the group, "we've looked the place over and there seems to be nothing."
Ruby nodded eagerly, despite what the others have said, she was unfortunately already very enticed by the strawberry flavored ice-cream, so she took it in her hands and started eating it... Soon enough, she had finished, and since Monokuma had wanted her to ask for another, she thought about it for a moment and spoke "I guess... Orange juice ice-cream then, but... It's for someone else, if a talking door is considered someone else." Ruby said, sounding a little awkward as she said this.
"Very well, witch. It appears that your odd ritual has brought you no fruits," Kotomine said, still wondering why they were talking to the bucket thing, "Where was the other place we intended to move? Chris's... something?""Well," Bayonetta said to the group, "we've looked the place over and there seems to be nothing."
"I suggest we move on to wherever Cosmo wishes to look for Arya."

"A talking door?! And I thought you weren't as dumb as the other guy!" He clears his throat, the dolls beginning to spin around once again. "I am two-faced, but bear one head." He's grinning about that pun, oh yes he is. "Men spill their blood for me! I travel widely, and I am beary potent when shared!"
"Try and answer if you think you're so smart you nosy detective!" Monokuma still doesn't like your kind.
Ruby thought more about this one... Then the idea suddenly occurred to her "... Money?" she said, still sounding a bit uncertain about herself. Her hand instantly dove into her pocket, looking for that Mono-coin, the closest that she had which resembled currency here.
Riddles? Oh, this was good. Very good indeed. Apparently it seemed that the bear was more focused on Ruby than anyone else. Especially that this left out the detective from the riddles!
"Ahem! It's quite rude that you don't include me in this riddle solving," Erika seemed quite ticked off. She was hoping for this time to make riddle solving, and...

"Upuhehehe! Such a smart and probably insane girl you are!" Monokuma drops a monocoin at Ruby's feet.
As much as she didn't want to make herself look bad, she overheard that Ruby had the same idea as her, that "money" was the answer. Inside, she really loathed the girl. Not because she was getting food for it, but the fact that she happened to answer these riddles before she could even say it herself.
"Yes," Bayonetta said, "Chris's... something."
"Upuhehehe! Such a smart and probably insane girl you are!" Monokuma drops a monocoin at Ruby's feet.
"Your guard dog needs to loosen up a little!" The dolls stop spinning to hand Ruby her second prize: the orange juice ice cream!

Ruby looked a little guilty noticing that Erika seemed a little upset as she had spoken first, she picked up the monocoin and took the orange juice ice cream which one of the dolls handed her... Instead of eating it though, she went over to Erika awkwardly, holding it out to her "Uh... Here... I guess I could always make some more or something... It shouldn't be that hard to find the recipe... Right?" she said, it seemed she was a little ashamed by this. All she knew to do to help the situation was do something like this, though she wasn't so sure it would work seeing the way Erika was sometimes. The smell of smoke in the air from Natsu's heavy thinking seemed to have escaped her notice for the time being in this critical moment.
