[ he's like nodding along to that - the issue of just sending a message is fine, though navigating the screen to send messages to harrow or molly feels harder, but he can probably set it up to be on one of their names automatically - but then molly starts spazzing ]
[ uh ] Molly? [ what the fuck. he squeezes his hand?? hello?? ]
Okay, first of all, I like the phone buzz plan, good work all around - brilliant ideas across the board. Um. Should probably be only used in the specific circumstance of "I am in a crowd of familiar faces and I am seeking assistance." And not as a password.
[he sort of. scoots closer to gu yun because maybe he needs the protection. guess we're having this out right here.]

That adventure he was on last week used a copy of me to get to him, and Molly was very clever in asking for a password to make sure it was really me. The place, however, was more clever, and used something I said against him. The fake version of me broke his nose.
[ rip ] I can't help with the man and manticore plan. You lost me there.
[ a beat, leaning his head back. ] Did you know your accent gets thicker when you ramble?

[Oh. My God? Well, she can't really say anything to this. It's just - no, she actually can't form the words?
She raises an eyebrow as Molly just sweatily tries to explain, but Gu Yun's explanation makes a bit more sense.]
Ah. I gave him a phrase to use to let me know I've been cursed, and to follow his instructions. Apparently, it didn't occur to him to bring up this incredibly relevant situation he experienced only one week ago.
[Just leaning on her hand.]
It's fine, Molly. Let's discuss it more on Monday.
[ he reaches over to pat molly's arm with his free hand. pat pat. there there. monday sounds rough for you buddy... ]
It's fine. Was rather dirty personal laundry. [ won't you be glad when he can't talk much next week, ]
I think among this group, it's probably a fine solution. It's only if you're whisked off to somewhere strange that it'll be a wild card. Just prompt me with the buzz of the phone during the trial, and I'll use it to my advantage. If I need to go along with anyone on investigations next week to keep up appearances - I'd rather not, [ because he knows... useless... ] but I'll take one of the two of you with me.
--I meant to address before, that having two floors remaining is interesting. That means we really should only have one floor left that is devoted to a specific Avatar, because there's a floor where all of them have sleeping quarters.
I can't confirm it's two floors. I can only confirm Gluttony suggested I would be surprised by the number of floors that are left, in a disconcerting manner that suggested something more sinister than sleep quarters. I surmised it was one less rather than one more because Yuel noticed the ship had only seven rings. I don't think the "floors" include the ground floor or top floor - only the floors that are specific to a particular Avatar.
