About a day after the return from the Jaunt

This is certainly the clearest message we've had from our delightful hosts in quite some time. Maybe they actually intend to make us aware of which of them is winning after all, instead of leaving us to guess and grope after everything.

Tell me, I'm curious: was it the intent of our Investigators that the Hermit should win, or was it just left to chance?

It was made abundantly clear that our lords and masters are moving into the competitive portion of their little game.

To be fair to Shuu, he was in a dungeon during the super long liminal. Me and some of the others turned into birds to get him out.

[morbirdinterest]

[WHAT]

...I beg your pardon?

[thornsofmalkav]

Me and Souji and Rise and Ambrose and Feli turned into birds to get you out, but then you left before we could get you out. Sort of. It was a little weird.

I was a bleeding heart luzon!

[morbirdinterest]

Were you? How...suitable.

[He doesn't actually know if it's suitable, he just doesn't know what else he can possibly say in light of this horrifying news.]

[thornsofmalkav]

I guess. The bleeding part works with the whole vampire thing, I mean.

[morbirdinterest]

I have found that they tend toward the dramatic, though of course there are perfectly sensible bleeding heart Luzons to be found.

[thornsofmalkav]

... okay, yeah, definitely fitting, then.

[morbirdinterest]

I trust that everything went...well?

[This is his way of attempting to subtly get information on whether everyone knows he's a mass murderer now.]

[thornsofmalkav]

Eh, it went okay. We didn't get to see all that much of things before you busted out.

[morbirdinterest]

I...see.

[He's quite relieved, and hopes it doesn't show too much.]

I appreciate your aid.

[thornsofmalkav]

De nada, dude.
