I'm not even sure what kind of fish are in here, but there's got to be something if they have all the equipment out here to use. It's mostly just catch and release back home, though, so I'm not much of an expert on anything after the reeling-in part.
Anyway! Here, grab a rod and tackle box and I'll walk you through it!
[ which he will but i don't care enough about fishing to look anything up ]
[ sometimes you're doing absolutely nothing with your life and literally just look to kill time...
anyway. glances over at him.
uh how am i supposed to know the answer to a question that vague ]
Um, I know some things, I guess? I've been staying at the haunted house the past couple of weeks and they've shared some information they've come across.
[ i don't know where any of them are getting it, though, no one tells me shit on my own ]
Ah... yeah, those were the ones Kate-chan and Yuffie-chan shared with all of us, I think.
Lavi's group and mine both brought back what seemed like... pieces of some kind of living thing, that we were thinking might be parts of that god or something. We got a wing and they got a tongue.
[ now that i think of it, i looked at too many tongues last week... ugh. ]
...Oh, and I think they got a... jar of teeth too?
[ there's not a voiced thought explicitly saying so but his thought process for jogging that memory was definitely "tongue -> tomi's corpse -> pocket tooth" ]
Right. The doll was... related to what happened to us in that other world. The other things we just found in a weird room we got pulled into on the way back, so I don't know if there's any link between them. It sounds like that room is always the same no matter where you get sent before.
A weird room...? Interesting. This is something good to keep in mind and maybe coordinate with everyone who's gone so far? Maybe they should be kept together someplace safe overall.
Ah... yeah, Lavi and I were kind of wondering if that room had anything to do with the secret place the note was talking about. Both of us could hear voices outside when we passed through, and it definitely felt like a place that was being hidden from someone.
I'm not sure about keeping the pieces together, though. I mean, we don't want this thing to be summoned, right? Wouldn't it make it easier if all the parts were in one place?
...Normally I'd say surely you'd need to conduct the ritual, or have all the pieces... but I guess we are lacking in any further information and don't know the rules to magic in this place.
Just thinking in the sense of... if someone were to die, their bodies and belongings disappear. It might be a problem if this were among their possessions.
I feel like those things from that room belong to everyone who was there, at least, not just the person who's actively carrying them around. So I don't think that would be anything to worry about unless Alfyn, Geto-kun and I all died on the same day.
...I guess I don't really have any proof of that, though. Just a vibe.
[ ...A will... I wonder if the Baron left one behind. Whether I'm even on it. Probably not. Couldn't even be bothered to send me one last farewell. Not even from Elise... ]
I don't think it'd be legally binding, but who really cares. None of us are lawyers and it's not like the cult's enacted some sort of distribution system for the deceased.

[ And that's how he ends up standing here with a line out to sea, standing and staring out to the shore. ]

[ People really do this for hours... ]
Out of curiosity, Mr. Matsuno. Have people kept you up to date with certain information rolling around?
no subject

There was one note regarding the birth of the infantile god, and another anonymous and pretty vague one in regards to a dangerous, distant dimension.
Aside that, it's been suggested to me that some items brought back from the Thursday ventures may actually have higher significance.

And we got... a creepy worm, for some reason.
no subject
Yes, I saw the. Tongue in a box, as well as the fairy in a jar.
[ He frowns. ]
The wing and worm are news to me though. You still have them? On top of the burlap dolls...?

I didn't recognize them, anyway.

Unlikely, but not impossible.
Let's hope that never happens.

[ well, with our shitty luck so far... ]
I guess I could make a will or something just in case. Is that legally binding here?
no subject
I don't think it'd be legally binding, but who really cares. None of us are lawyers and it's not like the cult's enacted some sort of distribution system for the deceased.
