week 4, Monday (chuuya, caren, assassin)

[doublesmall]

[the others are all well and good when it comes to sharing information-- but caren and assassin are the two chuuya trusts the most. they're the ones he thinks to go to after the initial discussion on those notes.]

You two saw those messages too, yeah? Figure we might need to talk about that second one especially-- and what we're going to do from here.

-what, so you need help getting a copy? If that's all it is, we can take care of that.

[if that's the one that he's from, it would be absolutely worth it, especially if it could be used to prove he's clear.

and besides:]

If we do, though... I want to borrow it from you later. Seems like it'd be good reading material, you know?

[of course chuuya wants to know more about it. about him, particularly.]

[sexorcism]

Water Margin? So you did find it after all... [She can only imagine what it must feel like to be so close to the answer and yet completely barred from it.

She'd felt a little like that, surrounded by all those spiritual books int he store, but she knows it can't be anything like what he's feeling.

Almost imperceptibly, Caren squeezes Assassin's shoulder before finally releasing it.]

Consider it done. Maybe you'll get lucky, and someone more familiar with the literature can use the process of elimination to find you.

I hope so. Feels like no one can.

[Caren's gesture comforts him, but there is a certain sorrow and frustration in forgetting who you are when no one else can seem to remember.]

Thanks, Chuuya, Caren.

... God, I hope none of us are framed this week.

-if we are, we'll deal with it, right? We just have to prove it wasn't us, and if we could manage last time...

We'll just have to do it again. They won't pin us down that easily.
