... huh.

Well, at least you're all alive.

[oathic]

[he nods.]

To be honest, the bombs were way more likely to kill us, I think.

[soba]

The bombs.

[ he hates you all ]

[oathic]

Yep. Had to defuse those.

[soba]

What exactly was this room?

[oathic]

Looked like it was related to warfare. Empty guns, helmets, medical supplies, maps and computers, etc.

[soba]

[ hmmm ]

Wow. Just what we need.

[oathic]

Yeah, probably not the most useful of rooms. Sorry.

[soba]

It's fine, we might as well know what's in them than not.

[oathic]

[he nods.]

Found this too, along with a bunch of songs—all about love.

[with his uninjured hand, he pulls out a letter and shows it to toi.

My most darling B,

I cordially invite you to my humble abode on the eve of February 14th. We’ve grown to know each other so well through these exchanges. It’s as though you carry a piece of my heart with you, and I yours. No one has ever understood me as you have, and I can think of no one else I wish to spend this special occasion with.

Please return this letter with your RSVP so I may make preparations for your stay. I await in anticipation for some intimate quality time with you and you alone…]

[soba]

[ he looks at the letter

then at agni ]

Didn't we arrive here on Valentine's?

[oathic]

Yeah. We did.

[soba]

Any idea who this supposed person might be?

It could be fake, but...

[oathic]

I'm not sure. Apparently, this entire mess is a long-running conflict between Master Blue and what we assumed to be the house, but maybe...

[soba]

Oh. Is it?

[ first he heard of it!!! but moving on ]

It could be someone else?

[oathic]

Maybe. Maybe something happened between Master Blue and the other half of this relationship.

[assuming blue was the recipient, anyway.]

[soba]

Have the girls said anything about it?

[oathic]

I hope you don't mean the letter, 'cause, you know. I couldn't check.

But I don't know yet.

[soba]

Well, if you guys have had this theory for a while, I assume one of you have asked them?

[oathic]

I only heard about it yesterday. You should ask Akira for the details.

[soba]

[ ugh ]

Fine. I'll do that when we don't have to deal with murders.

[ two, ]

[oathic]

Mm... yeah. I'm not surprised someone went for it.

[soba]

Neither am I. It's a pretty tempting incentive.

[oathic]

If anything, it's a surprisingly low number. We really could've had a bloodbath this week.

[soba]

It might have helped that people kept insisting it was fake.
