[A TRUE BRO . . .]

Pretty much, yeah. We got out last night, she was . . . not exactly ready for me to leave. And you wanna know the truth, neither was I.

[crashout]

It's not like I can blame either of you. Who knows what's out there now...especially with our rogue exorcism from Tuesday night. I'm glad you're both okay but what the fuck are we supposed to do with that?

Dick ended up having to play corpse jigsaw with Taako in a different locked room and she came back to life, too. There's something even more fucked up about this ship than we thought. [Hate it!] ...you didn't hear anything or find anything inside the room, did you? Broadcast, journal, any scattered items?

[oraculi]

[Oh, god, and he grimaces as he takes that in. His eyes dart up at that last part.]

Yeah. A tv recording. Kept talking about how to exercise for better sex, some bullshit like that, but I--

. . . she saw a friend from home telling her. [. . .] And so did I.

[crashout]

[...bad. He actually looks visibly surprised.]

But how...well I mean it's obvious it was rigged if it was a recording but how did the room know it was you? [This cursed cruiseship...] It stopped playing eventually didn't it?

[oraculi]

Yeah. Once Katy destroyed the damn thing.

And then all the other screens lit up, and there were the mutts. Crawled right out of the tv screen.

[Scotch scotch scotch, let's drink a lot of scotch.]

[crashout]

[Valid as fuck because:]

What. [Oh my god? Oh my god.] And once the mutts were free you guys were attacked because there wasn't a barrier stopping them.

Carlos told me Polly unleashed multiple things on this ship, but I don't think this is what he meant.

[oraculi]

She better not have.

[He doesn't bother uttering a threat. There's no need.]

Be careful where you go. I think things are getting worse the longer time goes on.

[crashout]

I'm getting that sense, too. [He says, having already decided a while ago that they have to keep opening the doors.] Last week wrecked both of Tamamo's arms. This week, this happened.

This is just some fucked up game for someone watching us because they know we can't get off of this ship without unlocking everything around us. [He frowns suddenly.] It's not even Thursday yet either. We still have the whole weekend ahead of us.

[oraculi]

Exactly. So watch where you go.

[Because why shouldn't the murder take place there? Why shouldn't it be a day early? Everything else is changing.]

[crashout]

[There's a firm nod.] Got it. We'll be on the look out for anything like that wandering around.

Who else have you told so far?

[oraculi]

Nobody. Just you.

[crashout]

...[A low sigh.] Well. Thanks. [For the update and for trusting him.] You mind if I tell Dick and Kagachi? I've been keeping them in the loop on this kind of stuff, and it's probably a good idea to cover our bases.

[oraculi]

Yeah. That's fine.

[. . .]

Thanks for asking.

[crashout]

[A nod.]

I don't go around sharing my information freely unless I know it's information that needs to spread. Something like this? It gives us a heads up and you an alibi in case something happens on Thursday.

It was only a matter of time before the gym unlocked anyway. One of the past recordings the arcade group heard mentioned it.
