It's not that. [And it's really not?] I made a promise not to say anything until they were sure it was safe on their end. And I can't break a promise like that.
Give me a day or two to see. We said we'd stay in touch and they'd update me on their choices when they could. [He runs a hand through his hair.] But I trust you both, and I trust them. A lot. Probably the most out of anybody else here. So...trust me.
[ please stop saying things, junpei, dick has to actively try to not guess it now??? And I? Personally? Am stupid??? but he nods, shrugging. ]
Escha's right, as usual. [ lightly! ] Just write down "secret" on our six slot for now. As long as one of us found them, we've still got the info. And we're still almost halfway through in less than two weeks. Not bad.
Yeah. As long as they don't turn up dead on Friday, I'll see if I can arrange a meet and greet. It'd be good to have everybody on the same page. [But thanks guys, he looks a little relieved.]
Seven left. I have ideas of who we can start asking, but...people aren't always prone to saying so. [A glance at Escha.] How'd it come up with Kagachi anyway?
W-well, I was just saying that everyone should be open and talk to each other about stuff, but that some people might have things they can't talk about...!
I meant to say things that they don't want to talk about.
It could be worse. It could be someone we can't trust. [Like. He's still :T about some things but Kagachi on the whole is fine. But...there's a pause again.]
Not to bring down the mood now that we figured some stuff out, but I think we need to talk about one more thing. Another group broke into one of the locked rooms last night. Wei Wuxian and I thought about it, but we were proven right. The rooms are getting more dangerous.
[The PC is still going so I'm going off of what Marie told me in a DM yolo.]
Tamamo, Grune and Izuminokami ended up inside a security room. They found a computer and everything, but some things happened to trip some security wires or something. They logged in and started reading some documents, but something took over the screen and forced them to see some kind of vision. I don't know how Grune's doing now, but Izuminokami had some new wounds and Tamamo came back with a knife in her arm and a dislocated shoulder. Our poltergeists aren't fucking around anymore.
You getting hurt isn't any better, Escha. Don't take unnecessary risks. [ just. immediate and reflexive, but he leans forward ] Did they get it taken care of? Kagachi had a fractured wrist he was ignoring.
[ and maybe smt with wwx but i aint there in the thread and its just an example ]
What Dick said. We're not risking people unless we have to. [But. Ugh. He rubs at his face.] It was taken care of enough. [Because we're also not that far in the thread and Junpei will probably suggest things.]
Someone's going to lose a limb next time and that is something I don't know how to fix.
[ she can explore??? she just has to take Better Precautions!!! ]
Agreed. I know temporary fixes, but I'd rather not have to put that training to use. Don't exactly have the tools, for one, even with that first aid kit.
I know how to patch myself up but other people's a whole other problem. But I should probably buy a kit to keep in the room anyway. [But he shakes his head.]
We can talk more about it later, but...in case you see them, there's your heads up. And we need to start keeping a better eye on people and see when they're going through doors and how long it takes them to come back.
Seriously, let's just hope it doesn't come to that. [None of them are doctors? But he glances at his watch, doing the math here.]
...we've got a little bit of time before we're forced to knock out. About half an hour. But we should probably stay in for the night. [i.e. nobody risking going out for anything else lest they pass the fuck out in the hall.]

We need to share information, but - we also need to trust other people, and be worthy of their trust. Right?
no subject

I misspoke while we were chatting and it just kind of led to him figuring it out...
no subject
We kind of led each other to ours, so that's not too different. How'd you misspeak?

I don't think anyone without one of these [ he gestures to their little list ] would've guessed it from that. You're fine, Escha.

Is everyone okay?

I'll try to look out for people, then.

[ he's joking. but, for escha-- ]
It's got a lot more than I expected, but there's only so much you can do about missing limbs without proper medical equipment.

Um. Yeah, I guess we could?
