Yeah... That's what I figured.

[that's not being a debbie downer, it's just being realistic!!! (things a fellow debbie downer would say)]

I plan to go talk to her. But I doubt I'll get anything useful out of it.

[residentmerc]

... Let me know if you find out anything. But I'd figure that monster wouldn't let her sell out its other half.

[halved]

Like I said, I doubt it. But if I convince her to walk me through what she did the other night, maybe we can piece some things together.

[residentmerc]

Yeah. Nothing to lose by trying. [ except time and patience probably but. ] That barrier's pretty sound, but... be careful anyway.

[halved]

I'll be fine. The worst she can do is blow out my eardrums.

[residentmerc]

[ don't get your ear drums blown out, asa. please. ]

Well. That happens, I can teach you some sign language.

[halved]

Don't you need both hands for sign language...?

[residentmerc]

Nah. Most words can be done with one. [ i GOOGLED THIS ] Might have to spell out some stuff, but it's doable.

[halved]

Oh. [huh.] Well... I'm not going to get my eardrums blown out, anyway. So you don't have to worry.

[residentmerc]

[ well when he is called out like that he is kind of. hm. well anyway ]

Alright. [ HE WANTS A SUBJECT CHANGE BUT HES AWKWARD... ]

[halved]

[cool! they are now going to be awkwardly standing here for a second then.

eventually, asa takes pity on both of their awkward asses.]

Right. So... Um. Do you have any ideas? To find the one we missed, I mean.

[residentmerc]

[ oh thank god ]

Only thing I've got is that poncho list. Erin was in the list for the smaller group, so maybe whoever we're looking for is in that second one.

[halved]

I think so, too. We probably missed something on one of their bodies. But there's no good way to check for that without being creepy and invasive.

[residentmerc]

Can't say I remember who checked who at this point, either.

[ me rereading seeing iwa had wounds and simply closing my eyes and moving on because how would cloud know ]

[halved]

Me neither. It's hard to keep up with everyone when we're all talking and checking on things at the same time...

[me seeing iwa had wounds and closing my eyes because my teenage anti-stripping girl could not do shit. it's fine.]

[residentmerc]

With that many bodies, wasn't easy to know what we were supposed to be looking for, either.

[halved]

[grimaces.]

There will probably be more bodies next time, too.

[residentmerc]

If they keep upping the ante like that... We won't last eight weeks.

[halved]

Or we'll all be possessed by monsters before then.

[residentmerc]

... Same difference. I don't think those monsters discriminate.

[halved]

You think they'd kill each other, too?

[residentmerc]

Probably not a chimera, but... it's not like they'd know, right? If all they do is go berserk and kill each other. Fiends do it all the time.

[halved]

I guess... Devils will take each other out too, and that's even knowing they're on the same side.

[residentmerc]

Yeah. And here, unless they were working together outright, they wouldn't have any idea.

[halved]

Like the chimera. I wonder if we'll have to deal with more of those in the future.

[I WONDER!! ZIA!!!!!!!]
