w4, monday

[silicone]

[ there's a group text! wow! it's first thing in the morning!

it's a picture of a small, non-descript box. inside of it, is a very dark, shiny stone. not unlike what yakumo would always wear. ]

someone left this outside our warehouse.

[captainry]

[ can this morning CHILL. wenzhou is actually fucking awake for once, don't ask, it's not important. ]

Wasn't that the stone that disappeared last?

[metacognition]

[ oh... weh ]

Is it his...? Was there a tag?

[silicone]

[ he waits for both of them to enter the chat before answering: ]

it was yakumo's
the stone he wore was actually embedded in his body
each of them has one as part of their contract as a clan member

[captainry]

So it was just
There?
Did you get a knock or anything if there's no tag?

[metacognition]

I'd ask the Reapers about it.

[silicone]

no knock no tag no name nothing
i came out and it was there in a [ mod voice ] weird mystery box

i was going to actually ask them, yeah
but i figured i'd just
let you guys know

bc if it doesn't end up being from them
then who?

the stone is really special. i have to give it back to him or
just stuff will happen
he might not be able to use his hearing in that ear

[ yakumo's dead and probably is fine anyways bc ug magic but w/e this is a genuine worry for him ]

[captainry]

[ stares into the void ]

I've been more open to believing in weird shit, since we got here, considering everything we've seen.
But
I'm hesitant to wonder if it could've been from Yakumo?
Somehow?

I don't know.

[silicone]

is that even possible?
i texted the reapers so like
who knows what comes of it

i don't know if it's the same one, because i cant feel essence anymore
not like back home
but im keeping it anyways
its something

[captainry]

I have no idea.
Our venerable ancestors don't haunt us or spring back from the dead, where we're from, but we have magic powers here that we didn't have before.
So what do I know?

We keep getting warnings/messages from those trips/missions people take, and they're so far-flung compared to what we experience here already in the UG.
Could there be another layer to the UG?

[silicone]

we are all dead to begin with
what if theres like another level of the ug for the double dead?

[captainry]

On principle I hate the phrase and concept of "double dead," but anything is possible.

[silicone]

idk you prefer double d?

[captainry]

[silicone]

kisses to you too, wenzhou

[metacognition]

No, that's me.

[silicone]

you and me both, pres

[silicone]

i have your answer by the way
to what we talked about the other day.

[metacognition]

Let's hear it.

[silicone]

froggystyle's first

[ man he hates that team name ]

[metacognition]

[


:') ]

I knew it.

[silicone]

i hate it

[metacognition]

[ :)

good thing this is not in person and not in emotionshare week ]

Thank you for sharing.
Your team will know. What's the likelihood they'll attack that team, in vengeance?
Be honest with me.

[silicone]

they're both temperamental. yakumo was kind of like my other hand when it came to wrangling the both of them.

gyuhyuk worries me, but.

i think i can get shen qingqiu to help with that.

[metacognition]

Gyuhyuk is the one I'd be worried about, from what I know, too.
It's up to you.

It was likely Ylfa.
