SplendorMan has lead me back into the illusion hall and up to a bright blue painted door.

"This is Candy Pop's room!" He exclaimed, eagerly presenting the door before me, "go ahead and give it a knock, maybe your return will cheer him up."

I nodded and stepped up to the door, staring it down for a good moment before bringing my knuckles up to the wood. I knock twice, then wait a bit. No response. I knocked again, this time with a bit more force.

I hear a groan come from the other side and then a loud "Whaddya want??" in response. I quickly turn and glare back at SplendorMan before facing the door again. I decided not to say anything.

Eventually, the door roughly swung open and I saw Candy Pop step up, looking outwards with an irritated expression.

"What do you need, Splendor?" Candy said, looking directly over my head straight at SplendorMan. "Hiya Candy, It's me Riddler, I'm down here," I grin beneath my mask, waving up at him. "That's exactly why I'm looking at Splendor. I'm pretending you're not there," Candy Pop scoffed with a smirk. I was slightly taken aback by the response but I end up emitting an akward laugh. "Hah...that's funny...almost sounded like you meant it...! Quite a jokester you are, hahah...?"

'My god please shut up self...'

Candy Pop finally glanced down at me with an unamused glare. My laughter dies down and I suddenly feel a great wave of embarrassment wash over me, but why? Why did I even care, I should be glad he actually seems to be annoyed with me...
