Alright, yeah, that matches up with what he told us. I just...wanted to be sure. [This isn't great!] I'm trying to trace the source but I'm not having a lot of luck. Dick wouldn't tell who he took it from either, but if we're dealing with something that can be passed like that...what the hell are we dealing with?
Hopefully. [He lingers on the question.] ...I think he was still trying to beat himself up, so probably as well as you'd expect. He told us what he needed to so we know what to look for if it happens again.
If it's not the same thing than we have an even bigger problem. But...then it's a question of do we tell everybody and knowingly set off a panic of who has this thing? Or do we try to track it on our own?
I know who had it last, but you're right. It's probably moving because most people won't wait around for their will to break. Could be what they're counting on.
...you saw what happened to Carlos and Polly, didn't you? What do you think?
[BAD.] I can't get an exact number, but we can assume anywhere between five and ten. So...almost a third of us if we're thinking on the larger scale, a fifth of us on the smaller side.
And with the caveat that we have to sleep with each other to live or get into that gift shop, the cycle's not going to stop. As soon as the first person passed it, we were already doomed.
...but maybe this explains how they went from thirty-three to twelve in four weeks.
With our luck, those answers are in rooms on floors we don't even have access to yet. Ships like these can go down pretty far. [Thanks Gigantic.] Do we know anybody who's tried to open the other doors yet?
[...hah.] More like he let me punch his hands for a while and told me he'd teach me whenever I asked. So yeah? Sunday was a pretty weird day.
[Sometimes...the mods trigger IC trauma. It's fine. But there's a grin, slightly teasing but bordering on curious.] I didn't think you two talked about me.
[There isn't really meaning behind it, but Higekiri what have you been saying.]

You got me there. Did he tell you if he heard anything from Chuuya or Nathan yet?

How was Dick?

Do you know if it passed on to whoever he slept with?

The problem I'm running into is finding where it started. I'm not sure this is the same thing Polly unleashed or not.
no subject
You know who has it right now? Then again, it's probably moving on quickly.

[...]
Do you know roughly how many people it's affected? Though if you can't trace it before Dick got it...

He's got his quirks but he can fight. I heard he was teaching you?

It's for others to decide whether I'm trustworthy or not. But he knows I consider it my duty to help others.
