[retellers]

If you want. I have no need for material items. [ goat is apparently unbothered by his empty room, as his sword dissipates. ]

[recrowns]

Have you ever gotten a gift from a friend before?

[soo-won just doesn't like that there's only a COFFIN in here]

[retellers]

[ he pauses, before he pulls out a few sheets of paper. ] I've received these?

[recrowns]

.... are these -

Stars? Emblems?

[retellers]

I'm not sure, but they were gifts offered when calling for me on different occasions.

[recrowns]

[there's just

a little laugh at that]

They are rather cute.... Maybe you could display them like art? It makes me want to get more creative about what I bring you too....

[retellers]

[ glad that neither of them knows what a summoning circle is ] I still do not require anything... but I will consider it.

[recrowns]

[nope! :D]

Mm, I'll see what other things I can bring too.

How are you feeling otherwise, my friend? No surprise new memories, right?

[retellers]

[ he shakes his head. ] No. I apologize if that disappoints you.

[recrowns]

No, it's more like I'm not sure if you'd tell me if I didn't ask.

I don't mind.

[retellers]

Mm. Well, I am the same as I was at the start of this week.

[recrowns]

Then I'll consider that good news.

I wanted to talk to you about a few different revelations and information I received this week.

The first being - do you have any idea why the removed seem to be asking for the 'Goats' to be protected?

[retellers]

[ he tilts his head, blinking. ] I do not. Though I don't believe that the removed are necessarily privy to any information that the rest of you aren't, so keep in mind that everything is merely their own conjecture.

[recrowns]

It seems like they at least seem to know their killers - Raven sent something to Hikaru telling her not to trust Hilda and Vezda....

While I can guess that Cater revealed Hilda - it makes me wonder if that means Raven himself has a reason not to trust Vezda.

[retellers]

Perhaps, perhaps not. I could not say--people can have any number of reasons to distrust others, and for reasons less drastic than death.

[recrowns]

That's not wrong either...

[he just looks a little tired]

.... have you gone to visit the removed yourself, Goat? Since I heard that it's apparently a bit hard to get to them....

Do you know what might be causing the messages to be difficult to read?

[retellers]

The pathway is unstable, as it has been from the start. Nothing is guaranteed to pass through safely, whether it be us, items, messages, or memories.

[recrowns]

Memories?

[huh]

What do you mean by that...?

[retellers]

When we pass through, there is a risk that our memories may be damaged in the process. That is all. Perhaps it is similar for that device. It forgets part of the messages as it carries them...? [ that's not how technology works exactly but it's fine goat doesn't know that ]

[recrowns]

Ah...

[the thing is that soo-won doesn't see a reason to correct him. it's cool. goat's cute.]

I see. No wonder you keep it to a minimum.

.... then perhaps you just have fans among the removed.

[retellers]

Perhaps. I don't know why, but everyone--here as well--has been very kind to me, even those not on my team.

[recrowns]

Admittedly, you are someone who's very easy to like.

[he's not going to flinch away from that]

[retellers]

Am I...?

[recrowns]

Yes.

[he says this so easily]

You're very endearing. I wouldn't be surprised if they were fond of you.

But ah - you said that they don't gain new information, correct...? Hmm... So is it just information they all compile amongst themselves?

[retellers]

That, or they heard it from a Leader. Or they may simply say whatever comes to mind--there is no rule that they must collaborate before writing any messages, after all.
