[ after the invite, she will show up at the daycare. ]

Otome?
momming: (Meet me at the scary isolated phone)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Annie! [ ... god, please be Annie. She's just hurrying forward. ]

Have you been all right? Sorry, with everything that happened yesterday, I was a little too busy to talk...

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
Yesterday was a lot.

[ closes eyes

she rubs her face ]


But I'm okay. What about everyone else?
momming: (Is it the Manischewitz again?)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
They're doing better. I've tended to their injuries, though I... really didn't think I'd need to be doing that here.

[ None rest. None. ]

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
That was the first time it happened...

I don't know. Maybe it's because of that mystery person that suddenly showed up last week?
momming: of quasi-lesbian ghost killers (I come from a long line)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Are you talking about that voice that Kon-san and Lucretia encountered? I'd heard it was over here, too... and it seems to be the owner of that handwriting.

[ She's not too impressed with it. ]
departea: (pic#8326845)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ she nods. ]

The timing could just be a coincidence, but it's the only thing that changed.
momming: (Principals always look like lesbians)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
And I'm starting to think coincidences aren't really a thing here... I suppose it's a good thing I did show up when I did.

[ No, she's tired. But-- ]

Crow mentioned that Iris had lost a grip on her identity earlier... are you and the others all right?

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm okay. I mean, it happened to me yesterday.

But if I'm honest, I did think it was a little too simple when we snapped out of it fully before.
momming: (This is some trippy shit homes)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
Y... yesterday. At our dorm?

[ She says this a little faintly because she is just IMAGINING what Nier and Claude might have done. ]

... Do you think the reason you snapped out of it before wasn't necessarily because of anything we did, but for this "plot"?
departea: (pic#8327079)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. I mean, it was scary but also very stupid.

[ but hm... ]

No, I think it might have still been you, but... more that you didn't completely severe the connection like everyone thought had happened.
momming: (Nice. Subtle.)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
... I'm sorry. Whatever they did, I'm sure they didn't mean it.

[ BOYS. ]

So in other words, it was more like a stopgap... I'm sure you would have mentioned it if you knew, but is there a way to completely sever it?

-- In a way that doesn't involve death, I'm just going to mention that now.

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. Since our case was a little different than... what was happening to you guys? I think. I only got a very sparknotes explanation of that from Lan Wangji.

It might not even be possible until we leave this place, which should still be in two weeks in theory.
momming: (I feel like we're not getting anywhere)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
I'll explain it later, if you really want to know, but before that...

[ She holds up her phone with a picture pulled up-- the one Lila sent her, of the list of train stops. ]

Lila and Leo somehow stumbled upon a room that mentioned a train. These were the stops, some of which we recognized, and I think this train is our way out of here-- though I don't know much about a station. Do any of these places look familiar to you?

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
I recognize the Japanese names.

[ well. she recognizes they're japanese, anyway. it's not like she'd personally know all of those cities. ]
momming: of quasi-lesbian ghost killers (I come from a long line)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
I was wondering if any of these stops might have been your home.

[ She just wants to make sure Annie can leave?? ]

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
I'll look through it more thoroughly.

But it's a good sign, at least.
momming: (I'm like the Wailing Wall)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
That's what I thought, too.

... If there's anything else I can do, please let me know. I may not be where I used to be, but... I still want to do what I can to help get everyone through this. And that includes the four of you.
departea: (pic#8328079)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 01:29 pm (UTC)(link)
... thank you.

They're probably going to use the seance item again sometime this week, so hopefully that'll help as well, too.
momming: (Our president is an idiot and a liar)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
The more information we can share, the better.

There's... well, I think we're very close to being able to do something about our transcripts, at least.
departea: (pic#8331334)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[ she nods. ]

... I can't really talk about stuff from here. We're sort of just blocked from saying anything, kind of like Mollymauk after he was revived. It's why I never said anything. [ ... ] Well, we might be able to at least admit we can visit the daycare now that you can send letters over there, but that's about it.
momming: (Come on you know the words!)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
That's better than it used to be, right?

... I'll try to keep everyone in one piece over here. If you're allowed to talk about visiting, can you hug the rest of the dorm for me? I'm not sure if you can check with the other Heads on the train stops, but if not, we can probably handle that.
departea: (pic#8328079)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll see what they say.

One way or another... this will end soon, so we just have to make sure it ends in the way we want it to.
momming: Like Republicans (Monsters only get evil people)

[personal profile] momming 2021-07-20 04:34 pm (UTC)(link)
The alternative isn't an option.

[ But she'll just go give Annie a hug, too. ]

Thank you for taking the time, Annie.
departea: (pic#8328065)

[personal profile] departea 2021-07-20 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[ she'll hug back, squeezing just a little. ]

Any time. I'm just... glad I can still see you.
