[ she's just quietly sitting somewhere. she's wearing this but the edges of the hood are already blackened with soot. she lifts her head when he speaks. ]
... Ah! That's right. Too bad.
[ I'm not sure it would have been a very good prank... ]
... The truth is, I already knew about most of it. Gale told me last week, when I was upset about Camille.
[ ... I lost my temper with him then... ]
... I was relieved that she wasn't just eliminated as a threat. That they were trying to save her. But if they failed, I don't know how I would feel then...
[he nods, and then pulls out the paper so he can pass it to her,]
βbeen monitoring everyone's conditions upon arrival, and after a month of consistent results, it seems safe to conclude this much: no one here has a connection to their monsters. They lose their power and forego the ability to grant themselves a wish, but in turn, can no longer be possessed and manipulated by the cult in such a way.
Could it have something to do with this place? Meanwhile, they've only been getting themselves into more trouble lately, which is a headache, but I can't discourage their efforts.
Almost sounds too good to be true, but... it'd be nice if it was. Especially for Cami.
But after that stuff about partners being able to survive if they link up with someone else...
[There's still a chance we can survive it. I don't want to die, but I don't want Kate to die because of me either. But if I become a monster and I get executed...]
Do you know someone you can partner with if I get killed?

Week 4, Tuesday
Guess we can't pull our hot dog couch prank now, huh?
[You okay?]
no subject
... Ah! That's right. Too bad.
[ I'm not sure it would have been a very good prank... ]
no subject
Maybe we should just leech all their coffins?
[he says it like he's kidding even though it'd be funny,]
How do you feel now that we know what happened with Cami?
no subject
[ ... I lost my temper with him then... ]
... I was relieved that she wasn't just eliminated as a threat. That they were trying to save her. But if they failed, I don't know how I would feel then...
no subject
I would have been seriously pissed if it didn't work, 'specially if Cami came back wrong or still possessed.
[Yuu's furious.]
But I think... she might be okay on that front. Maybe. I got something I want to share with the rest of the house.
no subject
Something like what? Another scroll or journal page?
no subject
Almost sounds too good to be true, but... it'd be nice if it was. Especially for Cami.
no subject
It seems similar to the entry we read before. So it could really be... about them?
[ But if they didn't achieve their wishes first, then... ]
no subject
[I don't know if the dead are really someplace else, but now that Cami's back... But his mind pivots back to Kate at her thought,]
Are you interested in the wish?
no subject
[ a little tense there, but the fact that they're dropping like flies is something she's had to contend with. ]
What about you?
no subject
...No. Yuffie mentioned that you could wish for someone else's life for it, but... I don't know.
[But if Yuu dies...]
Are you still looking for your partner?
no subject
... I didn't know you could do that.
no subject
no subject
[ so... probably not. ]
... I think you should know, though, that based on the information I've received from the overseers, I think you're a possible match.
no subject
There's a brief moment as Lavi looks clearly surprised, and then conflicted. But then,]
...Do you want me to confirm it?
no subject
no subject
But after that stuff about partners being able to survive if they link up with someone else...
[There's still a chance we can survive it. I don't want to die, but I don't want Kate to die because of me either. But if I become a monster and I get executed...]
Do you know someone you can partner with if I get killed?
no subject
no subject
...Yeah, I figured you would.
[then he shakes his head]
I don't, but I can ask around.
no subject
no subject
I won't tell him that you asked me, just that the possibility's come up.
no subject
That sounds reasonable, yes.
[ I hope we're both still here by then...
... and there's a little wince at that thought. ]
no subject
Me too.
[...But if I'm gone, then Kate could find someone who'll say yes.]
no subject
[ sternly. ]
