anyway this gets no response for a while because i hope he gets his phone taken away. however! gu yun will come to see him on his guard duty as usual and drop down outside of the cell. ]
[Oh I thought you meant the group chat that was my bad. WHATEVER for plot reasons he has his scroll, which he takes out of his pocket and waves lazily.]
Well, that makes two of us. But, yes. [ reaching into his pockets - he's dressed in a suit, today, instead of his robes! - he pulls out a matching one. and gives it a wiggle.] Used it yet?
[Since it's Gu Yun, he just slides the scroll through the little food slot. I'm copy-pasting because I'm lazy.
At the top, it merely says The Settlement.
In the middle is a simple, wide roadway flanked on each side by a row of buildings nestled against one another. Written across their hollow interior on the page is Mess Hall, Church, Jail, Rec Room, Mercantile, and Undertaker.
The cul-de-sac at the end has a building labeled The Barracks, and a list to the side of thirty-two things in groups of two. A lot are illegible, but Childe can make out Hisoka Morow and Sebastian Michaelis, and Ryan Farrow, and Clint Barton.]
Keep it, if you'd like. Have you heard any other names?
Diluc... well, you recognized that one before. [ he's not going to try with that last name jesus ] Griffith. Aerith Gainsborough. Dean Winchester. Akihito Narihisago. Shirasu Kinjou. A "Ms. Kurashiki."
Hisoka Morow is the person from the situation in the life support room that Vira saw. [ HISOKA IS HERE... ] Apparently he was dragged off by the creature shortly before our arrival.
[That's it... hm. There's a complicated flurry of emotions, but they're gone far too quickly to be untangled, his focus forced back to task and away from personal concerns.]
Why him, I wonder?
[Answer: because we joked about it too much in chat so Anna punished all of us]
anyway gu yun hasn't recognized a single name on this list, so. he doesn't do anything besides notice it and let it go.
he's thoughtful, for a moment, considering what he's learned so far, and watching the group chat update idly on his phone. ]
...Because... I don't think he was part of our group. I think he came before. As in... he was with the Avatars when they participated in this same situation.
[ dont you just hate how anna made hisoka plot relevant ]
As it often seems to be. [ can you believe we've been right since day one ]
Though, the station itself changes often. It may be they just didn't have so many "floors", until we came around, since each floor is based on an Avatar. Something more horizontal [ he gestures at childe's scroll, making a horizontal motion with his hands ] instead of vertical, though it could be different, too.
The ones listed on this aren't that different from ours, either. Of the six rooms on here, I could see the "undertaker" being the Execution Hall, and the "mercantile"... well, I doubt you've seen it, [ lol ] but there's a closet with infinite clothing on the new floor. The rest match up rather naturally.
[He's staring at the wall, thoughts racing, though his emotions don't give away anything besides focus.]
Something's been bothering me about what Shi Qingxuan told me, from her adventure. Did she mention a fight in a conference room to you? Not against the creature.
There were four participants, and four people they knew from home, if I recall correctly. [ now that i actually had a second to check the tag. ] But, I do think their entire adventure was directly tied to the Avatars and the things that they experience.

How's your day been? Boring, I imagine?
no subject
It was lovely until just now. [stop] This, right?

no subject
[He wasn't gonna sit around and wait to be looted lmao]
Have you?
no subject
Not yet. I'm planning on doing so in a little while - I had a thing or two I wanted to check in on first.
What'd you see?

[Wow color him surprised that he was right like, week zero. Incredible.]
It seems like they weren't on this same station, though. And I don't think they built it themselves. [So...]

no subject
She did. Against people from home, who had buttons on the backs of their necks, right? What about it?
no subject
But Childe frowns.]
It was people from home?
no subject
[ me crying im on a plane using shitty airplane wifi im gomen if i give bad info ]
no subject
She just told me there were eight of them. I didn't ask who they were.
[He'd assumed it was the Avatars, tbh. An oversight on his part, but she'd also been missing a leg at the time which was KIND OF A PRIORITY.]

[He nods slowly, mulling that over. Thoughts... many thoughts.]
An illusion of significance, then? [But there's a little doubt in his emotions, there.]
