Yeah, but... From what I've seen, all of ours are in different positions, so it might be tougher to find one that's on both of the lines we want to go for. You know?
Then...we focus on what we want to do and figure it out. [He's already kind of wanting to curl up and forget this is a real thing, but. Plot! Business! This is important!]
I found her. And the reason it took me so long is because I was thinking about this all wrong. You still have that picture, don't you?
What do you have taken care of already? [After a few moments, trying not to make this sound awkward:] I only need one more on the row I'm going for.
[Immediately after, though:]
Who is it? And - yeah. I actually ended up figuring that out a little bit after I talked to you, but... Again, I don't know how much I can say about it.
I hate this whole secrecy thing when I already know your role. [Ugh.] It's Zero. The reason I didn't realize it is because she's the Sugar Mommy. Who knew?
[But he thinks about the bingo card again and...frowns.] Anyway...I've got two things that are on totally different lines. [Weird! He's not going to talk about that!] But if you only need one more then we can probably go with that.
[Anyways, bingo. She tilts her head a little bit in curiosity when he says he has spots on two different lines, but she won't pry if he doesn't open up about it first.]
Sure. So... I've got, um, cunnilingus left, and then - we can do anything else that gets you closer. Sound good?
Cockblockers are our protective roles. The Booty Caller speaks to the dead. All of the roles seem to work a little differently even if they have similar rules. That's what I'm finding out.
But, more likely, Edelgard probably slept with Katy and knew that if Katy was picked she'd be saved. That's how Edelgard's works. It's also why Escha tried to frame Tamamo.
She doesn't know I know yet, but I'm interested to see what she can do. [THIS IS EASIER TO TALK ABOUT SOMEHOW.
...but. He tilts his head curiously before consulting his clamshell.] ...it's in the same row as one of my other ones, so that works. [He grins slowly.] But how do you feel about helping me catch up a couple of ways? Up for a little adventure?
I'll see what else I can find out. Maybe set you two up for a meeting.
[But. He holds out a hand.] Your room? It might be easier to explain when we're there instead of out here. [Wherever here is, I don't know locations and I don't want to.]
[Off they go! She's thinking about it as they walk.]
I don't know. Someone I was with yesterday guessed it would be a clue voucher or something else on that level, but... I'm kind of hoping it's something more.
It can't be a clue voucher because we can buy those just for doing things the normal way. ...maybe it'll be a bigger hint to what we're supposed to be doing here? Or demon-tracking tools. That'd be helpful.
I'm pretending it never happened. [Into the room they go! And here he drops her hand, smiling a little before he gestures to the bed.] I'll meet you there.
