 [Well, Ren's here, just as he said he'd be. He'll buy drinks for any adults still alive that want to imbibe, but there's also a number of sodas in a cooler available for anyone who's a minor or just doesn't want to drink. He's also brought in some snacks from Yotsukoshi and a few of those crab buckets, although anyone else is certainly free to contribute their own food and drink to the pile. 

Ren finishes up his cigarette before setting up, letting it extinguish before everyone arrives. Look, he's being good, there's only one in the ashtray. 

Joey's got one of her dance routines planned, Ren already also had the King's Game set up, or people can just mingle.

It's just not good to be lonely.]

[ Croix bites her lip at that letter, frowning. ]

...Do you think the two letters are correspondence?

[beguiledcard]

I wouldn't be surprised. The only real question would be when and between who...

[steelmagnolias]

Not like we have a lot of time to figure out, if things go the way they did last week.

[ He then shows them the other picture, which concerns him. ]

This was the other picture I took, a few days ago.

[byanyother_name]

[Yeah, that picture concerns Kurama, too.] ...The winner of the game and their Fabricator, I presume. I wonder what that pink light is?

[steelmagnolias]

Goro-kun said he found a sword earlier, before he...well, you know.

It was also pink. Not that that means anything, but maybe the sword and whatever's glowing belonged to the same person?

[ His eyes widen at the next picture, and he almost curls away from it a little...

There's just a bit of paleness to his face before he nods, finally. ]

Unfortunately... I only have one shot to use with that photo option. If any of you have any suggestions on where I should use it, though...

[ He pulls his phone out, looking at it. ]

Maybe I could get us at least one more clue with it... It's only one shot, yeah, but I'd rather it not go to waste.

[steelmagnolias]

I'd save it for now.

[ Your guess is as good as his at this point, Akira.]

I don't have a whole lot of leads at the moment, but if we could try to find out more...

...we should go back to that game in the toy store sometime.
