[ knock knock, hello boys and girls, it's time fo- ]
Ow...
[ ... time for Ludger to run smack into the side of the door frame, it seems. he sighs, rubbing his face, before he takes an exaggerated step to the side, guiding Nozomi in. ]
Welcome to, uh. Whatever we are. The information swapping club, I guess?
[ okay everyone, say 'hiiiiiiiiii' so the blind girl will know who's here and where you areeeeeeeeeeeee ]

Hello. I'm looking forward to working with everyone.
[She has a vague guess on who's in here. But she does bow to be formal.]

[What a polite introduction...]
Haha. The prim and proper type, huh? You ought to loosen up, you know. We don't bite... unless it's a special occasion, that is.

Hello, Cantarella.
[She remains blissfully ignorant of her bruises right now.]

Yugamu would be the one who prefers to get bitten....?

[ so a biter, a stinger, a 100 line, and a guy walk into Fran's infirmary, ready to loot the place... ]
We'll be counting on you. Especially since this week seems like it'll be... interesting.
[ haha ]
Have any of you checked out the new places yet?

There's a strange room with no instantly recognizable purpose to it... I think it should be handled with great care, so I'll be going there.
[She glances to Ludger, quietly scanning him with her eyes. There's concern there, particularly that he might burn himself out working too hard for too long.]
Do you intend to return to the mausoleum?

[ .... She's currently blind. ]
I'd like to check them out.
I'd like to check them out.
There's a shop filled with every odd and end imaginable. Another little alcove filled with books, though this one is a mess. Another laboratory, this one for the study of biological elements, and...
[There's a pause here where Nozomi might be able to imagine the slight, thoughtful pull in Cantarella's expression.] It's a strange building; I can't put a name to it. I think it may be a bad memory. That's where I'm planning to look.

Better get to it before Anaxa and Hansa.
[ they might Do Something
Ludger turns to look at Cantarella, tilting his head so his right eye can get a clear look at her. he looks fine? maybe a bit sunburned still, but it's healing pretty quickly. ]
Yeah, I'm hoping I'll be able to make out what the plaque says this time. Other than that... I don't know. I might check out the reptile house?

Anaxagoras and I are going to look at the reptile house this week.
[Cantarella exercises all her willpower to not sprinkle Nozomi with cautions about the reptile house. They've already been there, and the girl knows plenty about the animals it houses.]
I will, though it sounds like they've cast their net for much larger fish this time. I believe Wazy will be facing the intimidating monolith of the greenhouse soon, yes?
[She glances in his direction for confirmation. Cantarella's notebook pales in comparison to the beauty of Ludger's, but she still has one, at least half-full by now, with no small number of neat notes.]
Then there is the matter of communication with the lingering spirits...That seems to be something Nala holds most dear.

Oh, maybe I should look somewhere else then...
[ decisions decisions! ]
[ decisions decisions! ]
Haha, that we do. I'll let everyone know how it turns out, although I'm sure you'll see some of the results for yourselves.
[kind of hard to be subtle about bombing the shit out of something, after all!!]
I was also going to try sending a few messages down the well to see how much we can get out of our restless friends. If it's suitable for basic messages, we can save Nala's item for later.

Not yet, but I was going to check out our new study [why do we have so many studies, guys] with Katan. The pawn shop also caught my eye, but consider that a window shopping trip instead of anything else.
We may very well hear them before you can even think of filing your report.
[She has set a precedent for explosions and how far the sound can carry here, after all.]
The well is fixed; the typewriter is transient. We may end up needing it when we're adrift. It's a clever use of our resources, Wazy. [Genuinely...she won't even caution him against having too much contact with the water this time.]
As for places the depths of which have already been plumbed...there may still be a few that are hiding a secret or two. I should have some time, should you have any suggestions.

I'd ask how you know that, but I think I can guess.
--Anyway, welcome. Now you'll never escape our loving embrace. ♥︎

I wasn't planning on running away.

A bad memory...? [If this place is based on wishes, it makes sense that one of them has gone awry- but why reveal that to them now.]
Please be careful and bring someone with you.

I do wonder if the library might have been more organized if so many of the interesting books hadn't been squirreled away. [Cantarella shakes her head with a small chuckle. The library is notable for other things bound within its walls, anyway.]
Let us know if you come across a good bargain. That store must be full of surprises. Although it might be even better if we can find something that blows all of our theorizing wide open.

Perhaps a list?
[Nozomi can't see... But they can make one verbally.]
To dilute it as simply as possible, the predominant theory is that the energy needed to maintain this cycle is unbalanced. Victor has hypothesized that the Wish Giver has been granting said wishes at a deficit with nothing in repayment until the debt has created, essentially, a vacuum. The iridescent nothingness is connected both to wishing and the lost—as well as the "taken."
The museum, well, central field, and chapel all share traces of this substance, though all but the first have been well picked over so far. Can you think of anywhere else?

... I'd say the library, because it keeps turning communications up, but.
[ there are so many nerds living in there, it's probably silly to check Again ]
Maybe the clothing store? I still haven't seen that backroom area where Thancred said our stuff is.
