It was.... massive, goopy, full of eyes. Like... malice. Hard to describe it. [ it has not been wrapped yet so estelle can do that!! ]
[ it's literally a heavy hand clamped around his leg. good news, though, as soon as shinobu touches it it disappears into sparkles! i was just waiting for that. there's a fading bruise left behind. ]
We were inside the giant bird machine. But, uh, we found a notebook... I think it's Aquarius's. Sheila has it, but I can sort of... paraphrase what was in it.
[ it was shinobu's raw power that made this happen. he mumbles a thanks to estelle, but thankfully no more memories!!! for now. unless you guys want to memshare. ]
Think so. Kind of feels like we're surrounded by something, in between... [ vague gestures ] everything.
[ and now for exposition time!! ]
It was from one of the staff... talking about infiltrating, researching, losing their name. Pretty sure it's Aquarius, because they talked about all the other staff members. Then something about a wedding, they met the boss, who's bound by contracts.
And something about how they're going to have hang back and watch us rip each other apart.
I don't put a huge amount of stock in that stuff, because the notes we found in my game were kind of... they seemed like they were pointing to a traitor, but there wasn't actually one.
Yeah. I don't know about the wedding, maybe it was unrelated. The line about it was like "god damnit, I have a wedding to plan." They were also saying that things were never easy for them, and everyone has an agenda.... as long as no one figures out theirs.
[Estelle's expression gets a little warmer at that offer.]
...
Come to think of it, is this the first time something like this has been found? My group found a note, but it... didn't look useful at all. Neither did the one that Yoo Joonghyuk's group found...

[ hate to say it but shinobu's biggest issue about herself is her physical strength, but she knows how to use tools to move things.
she is going to try to remove the robot arm. is it holding onto him like.... a hand is wrapped around his leg? ]
Was the bird machine part of your quest, too?

Then she jumps a little when the thing disappears. Stardust-memshare week's got her a little jumpy around things like that.]
R, really!? What did it say?
[She'll pull another pool chair over closer and sit.]

[ oh! goodbye, hand. good riddance, maybe.
she also looks over at him with attention. she is all ears! ]

she thinks this over. ]
I think it's still something to keep in mind. Is the only thing mentioned that they lost their name?
no subject

... and if this is something Aquarius should be consulted over, or if it's best not to bring it up with them...
no subject
[ at worst, it'll be a no. ]
I think it should be brought up with them or one of the staff. Any reaction or answer is more information than what we had before.
no subject
[ he's pretty open with his plot info ]
And yeah, it's a good idea to share these things, see how they react. It'll probably help them, too, especially if they're in a bad situation.

Could I see the note your group found, if you have it?

[ if estelle shows it he'll look too! ]

This is just a copy I made -- Kazunari has the original, but...

I see. It may be helpful in judging the staff's character... if it's to be believed at all.
[ why is there no one not stinky on the hotel staff damn ]
no subject
[ so it was the original list that got updated with this week. ]
Wonder which of them wrote it.
[ this seems very sketch, they are all so stinky ]
no subject
At least somebody had fun with it, looking at what got passed around yesterday...
no subject
she smiles. ]
It'd be better if it were fun and gave us more clarity about the hotel.
no subject
There's plenty of "fun" to be had elsewhere.
... Unless it really is meant to be a clue of sorts. A code or something. Probably not, though.
no subject
If it is a code, it's certainly an original idea...
