[TOO DEAD, FAR TOO DEAD.

Kashuu will give that question some genuine thought, at least. As much as he hates waiting, he's also sort of gotten used to the fact that it is the only option here at times.]

...For now, I think so. Even if we tore the city apart looking for that stuff we'd probably be more of a problem than any sorta help.

[bewrightback]

Y-yeah. [Never mind that I run into enough trouble taking apart paper bags...!] And we don't want to provoke CERES. That could easily backfire on us.

[adornmental]

Definitely... Especially since I get the feeling that they don't actually know what's going on yet. Not if that robot was involved, anyway.

[As long as it's not lying about being separate from CERES, which... WELL. IT COULD STILL BE LYING. But he'd rather hope for a best case scenario.]

[bewrightback]

That's a good point. Things definitely felt very... off-the-books. Especially considering the last time that robot spoke to us... [Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto.]

...I guess we'll have more to discuss at our next, um, pizza party.

[adornmental]

[A little snicker... He loves that term so dearly.]

Yeah, looks like it. Considering how soon this all happened after that guy talked to us the first time, I doubt it's a coincidence.

[bewrightback]

[Phoenix nods.]

I don't believe in coincidences. ...Well, I mean, I do think there are such things as coincidences. ...But this isn't one of them!

I wonder if any of the others were able to find out more about him.

[adornmental]

Yeah, this is too fishy to be one.

[It'd also be ridiculously good luck if someone actually did manage to find that puzzle piece, but he doesn't bother saying that part aloud since it's a bit gloomy.]

We'll find out soon enough, anyway.

[bewrightback]

[Your face is gloomy

Right now, Phoenix will settle for any puzzle piece, even if it's a minor one.]

Right. I guess we'll see. And for now, there's the remaining missing people to worry about.

[adornmental]

[HONESTLY NOT UNTRUE but stop gloomy isn't cute, he's gotta hide it.]

There're a lot of 'em. I think I'm gonna look around the city with someone in a little bit, just to like, make sure... But I don't expect to find anyone.

[bewrightback]

...Well, we can't know for sure until we try. I think that I'll head out on a search as well.

[adornmental]

Just be careful, okay? The last thing we need is people falling back into trouble 'cause we tried to save the other people who fell into trouble.

[bewrightback]

I know. I'm not about to stick my nose somewhere it doesn't belong. [That explosion is still so vivid in his memory.]

...And you know to be careful, too.

[adornmental]

[Chuya lives on as a warning to them all...]

I will be, pro-mise! Check back in if you find anything, okay? I'll do the same.

[bewrightback]

[Or dies on.]

Right! [Nod.] Well, um... see ya!
