As long as it's before curfew, it should be fine . . .

[recrowns]

Worried about me?

[soulus]

No. I have an appointment after this.

[recrowns]

Oh, for curfew? Where are you staying?

[soulus]

The cafeteria.

[recrowns]

I'll be headed outside with a few people. We'll probably be making noise, so let me know if you can manage to hear us.

I doubt it, but I'd like to test once more and then finalize our findings.

[soulus]

Understood. I will listen and report my observations tomorrow.

[recrowns]

Thank you, I'd appreciate it.

And if you're with Jeanne tonight... take care of each other, alright?

[soulus]

How do you propose we do that? All of us will be asleep soon.

[recrowns]

Sheer force of will?

[soulus]

[Rufus looks—just looks—at Soo-won.]

[recrowns]

Merely in jest, my friend...

[soulus]

. . . Have you spoken with the Leaders?

[recrowns]

Not since I came back - but I do chat with them a bit, yes.

Why?

[soulus]

One of them is supposedly suspect.

[recrowns]

So I've heard.

Did you receive any hints as to which one?

[soulus]

I know the one who relayed the suspicion.

[recrowns]

That would be a start. Care to share who?

[soulus]

Swan.

[recrowns]

What do you know about Swan?

[soulus]

No more than what the rest of the participants know.

[recrowns]

Then how did you know that Swan was the one who gave the accusation?

[soulus]

How else? I was informed.

I don't know which Leader originated the accusation—only that Swan relayed it.

[recrowns]

[hmmmm ok]

Well, it does all seem a bit tense... it sounds as though someone believes that Virid was given the instruction to kill Hajime - and he did not resist.

We'll have to discern whether there's any truth in that.

[soulus]

How should we do that?
