You don't have to lie. I won't tell.

[wtfox]

i'm not lying.

for one thing, i'm not stupid enough to kill someone from my own dorm. for another, i'm also not stupid enough to just go for it without waiting to see how we change our approach after last week.

[godcards]

I thought if you killed someone from your own dorm it might throw suspicions away from you...

Anyway, what did you learn this week? Anything helpful?

[wtfox]

no way. my dorm is actually pretty tight-knit; i can count on them to back me up if i do something later, or at least to not want to believe it's me. i'm not going to cut down on the number of people who would do that.

nothing much. just the things we heard at trial from the people who vanished on thursday.

oh, i did get the price on some healing spells from sally, actually. for a small injury, she can let me have one for 3 vouchers. a medium injury would be 8. and i can get a discount on the medkit, which would normally be 10, for 8 instead.

[godcards]

If nothing else, that information about healing spells is useful. Is that something you apply yourself, or something Sally would do for you?

[wtfox]

she didn't say
oh, but she did kind of imply that if i bought the small injury one and didn't use it right away i could pay the difference to make it heal a larger injury later

[godcards]

Very interesting! I might have to ask Chad about that later. I might be able to cut a better deal, if I'm lucky. If you're close to her, it might be worth asking how the healing magic works. Such as, where does the magic come from? And could it work on a dead body, for example?

[wtfox]

Oh, like, to hide the cause of death? That's not a bad thought...

[godcards]

Just in case. You never know what might happen in the future, and the fewer leads there are, the better... But perhaps that would make Sally suspicious?

[wtfox]

it might. i could ask like i was wondering if it would be possible to bring someone back from the dead though.

[godcards]

There's an idea. I'll leave it in your capable hands.

[wtfox]

right


oh i just realized. do you have a password on your phone?

[godcards]

No.

Cellphones don't have as many features where I come from...

[wtfox]

oh, my god.

set one up. i don't want just anyone to be able to see our conversations if they get their hands on your phone somehow.

1/2

[godcards]

Nobody is taking my phone. But fine, that's a simple request.

[ give him a few minutes to fiddle around and figure out how to do that. ]

2/2

[godcards]

It has been done.

[wtfox]

[narrows her eyes at the screen]

you didnt pick 123456 did you?

[godcards]

I did not! And I won't tell you the password either.

[wtfox]

fine.

but change it to 123456 if you wake up somewhere outside the dorm in the middle of the night, and try to get a picture of whoever is after you.

[godcards]

If I'm being chased, shouldn't I just send you the picture?

I believe that's something you can do with these phones? Yes?

[ thanks he's going to have a technology crisis ]

[wtfox]

have you been able to send anything on thursday nights so far?

because i haven't.

[godcards]

I haven't tried. I don't text anybody else but you. Everyone probably thinks I still don't know how.

[wtfox]

well, it doesn't work. so if you do manage to get a picture of whoever's after you, or something we can use to find them, we're going to need a way to get into your phone to see it.

[godcards]

If they get into my phone, it's over for you as well.

I'll just have to get creative in another way.

[wtfox]

not necessarily. if i'm the one that figures out your password then i can just pull up your pictures and nothing else.

or if there's enough time maybe you can just set whatever picture you manage to take as your lock screen photo idk
